“Are you sure it was nothing?” Niall said when Dani left. “You can tell me.”
No it was something, you talking to Demi Lovato! I freaked out in my mind but calmly said “It really was nothing.” I looked at him for the first time since he showed up.
“Danielle,” he looked me in the eye, “I know something is wrong. Don’t ask me how I know, I just do.” He breathed out heavily and ran his hands through his hair. “Did Jake call you? Because if he did. . .” I shook my head, my throat stinging. “Than what is it, you can trust me.”
Those words hit me like a slap in the face. Trust is the only thing that I’ve had a problem with, especially when it comes to guys, ever since I was a toddler. I shut my eyes, forcing my past into a dark hole in the back of my mind, I slammed the door tight and locked it, willing for it to remain closed forever. Now is not the time for those images to appear, I slowly inhale, almost testing my mind, and exhaled. You have to start trusting people, now would be a good time to start.
I opened my eyes and his eyebrows were creased with concern. I just stared into those eyes. Some people say the eyes are the window to the soul, I am one of those people, and looking into Niall’s ever changing blue eyes, I knew in my mind, heart, body and soul that no matter what I could always and forever trust this guy standing in front of me.
I took a deep breath again, “Jake didn’t call me, and it didn’t have anything to do with him.” He let out a soft breath. “But it did have something to do with a phone call.” I looked away embarrassed, “I know it’s really stupid to get mad over a stupid phone call but I couldn’t help it. It was like I couldn’t control myself, the stupid green monster sat on my shoulder laughing at me. I was so happy, cheerful and a whole lot of other emotions I didn’t even know I had, I mean I was about to kiss you! What girl would not want to be in my shoes? I was this close, and then bam, your phone rings, it’s like the Three Fates didn’t want part of my dreams to come true.” I was talking so fast I hardly had time to breath, my words slurred together. “Okay so maybe I did say you could answer it but doesn’t mean really wanted you too. When I found out that it was the Demi Lovato, I was hurt, I’m not gonna lie, it killed me, well not really that was just a metaphor but you know what I mean,” I could tell I was getting nervous by the way I nodded my head constantly and making really bad jokes, like the metaphor.
“Demi she’s beautiful, very beautiful, talented singer and actress, oh and she’s super funny, from what I know. What I also know is that you’re attracted to her and visa-versa, you told magazines that she’s your celebrity crush, but who wouldn’t be attracted to you? I’m attracted to you and so is like 7 million other girls and the occasionally dude.” I shook my head, “I sound like I’m your jealous girlfriend, going off like this, being jealous, I don’t usually get this jealous but I just couldn’t help it and the stupid electrical shock every time you touch me didn’t help either. I guess what I’m trying to say, Niall, is that I really like you, from the first time I saw you in the WMYB video, I’ve listened, read and watched all your interviews and video diaries, but not in the creepy stalker way, I’m no stalker.” Niall choked down a laugh, which made going on easier. I stepped closer to him so about five inches separated us, I looked into his eyes. “The one thing that stood out the most to me, was not your voice, or your looks, or all the popularity, or the money you guys make, which apparently is a lot. No, it was your personality,” I poked him gently in the chest, “You were, are,” I corrected myself “Carefree, happy and you were always you, not just some spoiled big shot. You and the rest of the crew want to meet all your fans, to shake their hands, hug them and even sometimes kiss them. You guys know where your fame came from, it came from all our support. Directioners,” I smiled, “I’m proud to call myself one. It just tickles me to death how you appreciate everything you have, you take it into your hand and don’t let go.” I got this far away look in my eyes, remembering the day they were put together as a band. “It’s just. . . I don’t know. . . A miracle that you guys are still here, it’s like One Direction was meant to be a band, meant to change millions of people’s lives including mine. You helped me to believe in myself, because of you guys I know I’m beautiful I don’t need make-up to cover my face, if you don’t like the way I look than stop staring. I’m just so happy that I get the chance to stand in front of you, Niall James Horan from One Direction.” I couldn’t stop smiling, the whole time I was talking he never interrupted, he just listened to me pour my whole heart out on my sleeve. He was smiling like an idiot from ear to ear, I leaned back just a little. “Why are you smiling like that? Do I have something on my face?” I started feeling my face for anything.
