Chapter 6
Niall's POV:
"Umm.....no. I mean yes, I love her, but not like that, we're just friends," I said quietly, I felt my face turn red as I looked at the ground.
"Yeah, just friends," Fatma said.
"Sorry if I made this awkward," Roma said. Could she have made it any more awkward?
"It's ok, don't worry," I said.
"Yeah, can we change the subject?" Fatma said, I noticed her face turning red, her eyes we're glassy.
"Hey, are you ok?" I asked her.
"I'm fine, don't worry," she said.
"I feel bad," Roma said.
"Don't worry about it, you did nothing," Fatma said.
"Hey Niall, I'll be right back, I need to use the ladies room, Fatma can you come with me?" Roma said.
"Sure, don't worry Niall we won't take too long," She said.
Fatma's POV:
As we walked into the bathroom, I started crying.
"Fatma, are you okay?" Roma asked me, getting me a piece of paper towel.
"No, he said he doesn't like me!" I said.
"Did you not see him blushing?"
"Yes, maybe he felt uncomfortable?"
"He likes you!" Roma said.
"I doubt it," I said.
"I'm sorry this happened,"
"Don't be, at least I know the truth,"
"If I asked you that in front of him, how would you react?"
"The same way he did," I said, realizing he probably does like me.
"See! He likes you!" Roma said cheerfully.
"I guess he does," I said laughing.
"Come on, let's go,"
Niall's POV:
What's taking them so long? I hope she's not mad at me.
"Niall!" I heard Fatma yell as she and Roma were running.
"Fatma! What too you so long!" I said as she ran into my arms.
"I'm so sorry about the way I acted!" she said into my chest.
"For what? I was the jerk," I said.
"You're not a jerk Niall," she said pulling away, I noticed her eyes were red and puffy.
"Fatma, were you crying?" I asked her.
"ROMA! YOU SAID I LOOKED FINE!" she yelled.
"I'm sorry! I did not think he would notice!" Roma said.
"Why were you crying?" I asked pushing a strand of hair behind her ear.
"I don't wanna talk about it now, maybe another time?" she said.
"I'm so sorry," I said hugging her again.
"It's ok don't worry about it," she said.
I kissed her head and said "It's not, I bet it was my fault,"
"Don't worry about it Nialler, and when the time is right, I'll tell you why,"
"You will?" I asked.
"Yes, I promise," She said extending her pinky, I took my pinkey and locked it with hers and smiled.
"Roma are you ready to go?" I asked.
"YES!" she said picking up her bags.
"Wait before we leave, can we get some water?" Fatma asked.
"Sure, are you ok?" I asked.
"I need to take some Tylenol," she said rubbing her temples.
"Are you ok?" Roma asked.
"I have a headache," She complained as she sat down on a bench. Roma sat next to her.
I'll go get you some water," I said.
"Thanks," she said as she rested her head on Roma's shoulder and closed her eyes.
Roma's POV:
I'm starting to not like that Niall kid. I mean he's sweet, but he made my friend cry. Ok I guess he's ok, he was probably nervous but now she's having a headache!
"It's going to be ok," I told Fatma, who was resting her head on my shoulder.
"I know, I guess I over reacted," she said.
"You really love him don't you?" I asked her.
"Mmhhmm," she said.
"He's not that bad looking either," I said.
"That's what I'm worried about, when he gets on the X-Factor, what if a girl breaks his heart? He's really sensitive ya know," she said.
"You'll be there for him when that happens, you can tell him you told him so," I said causing her to laugh.
"I'm not going to do that, I don't want to even get involved in their relationship! I mean I'll help him out for sure and be their for him! I would never try to hurt him, I'll be there for him."
"So were you girls talking about me?" I heard Niall say.
"Yeah, I was saying how I will be there for you if a girl breaks your heart," Fatma said.
"Why were you guys discussing this? Fatma, are you sure there is nothing you wanna tell me? Do you not trust me?" Niall said. I saw him tear up a little.
"Niall, I trust you with my life! I just don't feel comfortable telling you this yet, do you not know how hard this is? Keeping your feelings locked in like this?" She asked.
"Yes I do, sorry. I'm just so worried about you....wait....what feelings?"
"You're are as blind as a bat ," I said.
"Im just worried about you, like after the X-Factor,"
"I'm not going to change! Is it the fame?" He asked.
"I don't a girl to come along and hurt you Niall," Fatma said taking the water, taking a bottle of pills out of her bag, opening the bottle, taking two pills and put them both in her mouth then drank water, helping the pills go down, "I care about you, I don't want to see you hurt,"
"Don't worry about me," Niall said, causing Fatma to get mad.
"TOO LATE!! I DO WORRY ABOUT YOU! STOP PUSHING ME AWAY!" Fatma yelled.
"I'm not trying to push you away, I would not even think about it. Fatma I love you..."
