*Niall's P.O.V.*
'What the actual fuck? What the actual fuck?' Is all that kept running through my mind as I stared at the pictures in front of me. I was seeing red, I was so fucking angry. I tried my best to hide it so the boys wouldn't notice. I was staring at pictures of Sofia with a guy walking around a mall. And not any mall, the mall she had taken me to when I visited her in Monterrey. They were walking around like a fucking couple and there were more pictures of them inside a jewelry store, and she looked so happy. She was even grabbing the guys' arm in one of the pictures and staring at him as if she loved him. So this is why she hadn't answered any of my texts, she had been busy with another guy. I don't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing that I couldn't see the guys' face. On one hand, I wanted to know who he was, but on the other hand, if I knew who he was, I'd probably send someone to beat the shit out of him. I mean, I knew Sofia and I weren't on great terms but we were working shit out, why did she have to go out with another guy and ignore me?
"Everything okay Nialler?" Harry asked, and I noticed that I was clutching my phone, my fingers turning purple.
"Yeah, everything's okay." I brushed it off. I wasn't going to tell him about Sofia going out with another guy while I was half way around the world. I didn't want to be know as the guy who was cheated on.
"You sure?"
"Yep." I replied, putting an emphasis on the p and giving him a fake smile, hoping he wouldn't notice.
"We're here." Our driver announced before we all poured out onto the street and went inside the very familiar pub. It seemed as if nothing had changed, even though a lot of things had, this place had remained the same. And right now, it was exactly what I needed, something to remind me of simpler times, when I was happier and didn't have girl trouble. We headed to one of the farthest tables from the entrance that we could find, since we wanted to lay low.
"5 pints!" Louis hollered to no one in particular. So much for laying low, since his hollering made people turn to look at us as they started to whisper. Great! (*sarcasm*)
"I'll go and get them. Guinness right?"I offered, not waiting form them to respond as walked to the bar. Guinness is the best beer so that's what they're getting, whether they like it or not.
"Hi, can I get 5 pints?"
"Guinness?" The girl answered without looking up.
"Yep." I responded before she finally turned her gaze up from the glass she was pouring and I watched her do a double take as she realized who I was.
"Coming right up." She answered a few seconds later, after she had time to process who she was talking to I suppose. I had kind of gotten used to that, girls not realizing they were talking to me and then doing a double take when they realized they were talking to me or any of the guys', it was actually kind of funny.
"Thank you." I smiled at her as I waited for the beers. I was minding my own business when I felt someone cover my eyes.
"What the hell?" I called out.
"Guess who." A voice responded, and I instantly recognized it, it brought a smile to my face. This was exactly what I needed, a friendly face, a person in which I could confide that wasn't one of the boys.
"Greeny!" I exclaimed as she uncovered my eyes and I turned around to embrace her.
"Nialler!"
"What are you doing here?"
"Me and the girls decided to come and spend the weekend in Manchester. And I remembered I used to come to this pub a lot with you and the guys back in the day so I brought them here. Never in a million years would I have ever imagined to find you here! What are YOU doing here?"
"The boys and I are doing some promo stuff here and we had the night off, hence why I'm here."
"Wow, it's such a coincidence."
"I know right. What are the odds?"
"Exactly!" She happily exclaimed.
"Here you go." The waitress spoke as she handed me the drinks. And it didn't take long for Amy to put two and two together.
"Wait, you're here with the guys?" She excitedly asked,
"Yeah, we're over there." I said as I pointed at our table.
"Oh my god, can I come and say hi? It's been ages since I've seen them."
"Of course you can Greeny, come on, let's go." I spoke before grabbing the beers, and she helped me carry them to our table.
"Beers! Finally!" Louis hollered as he took one from my hand.
"And Amy. Wow, Hi. It's been ages." Liam continued as he saw her walking right beside me.
"Hi guys! I know! How are you?"
"We're doing pretty good, how are you?" Harry spoke up
"I'm good too. I'm here with my friends actually."
"Oh you should invite them over, the more the merrier!" Louis contributed before taking another sip from his beer.
"Are you sure?" Amy asked, and I knew the question was directed towards me. I could use the distraction, anything to get my mind off from the pictures of Sofia with that guy. So obviously I answered.
"Yeah, of course." And off she went to find her friends to bring them over.
"What the hell?" Harry asked. "Wont' Soph get mad?"
"I honestly don't care." I answered.
"Did something happen?" He questioned me again.
"I don't want to talk about it. Can we have a night without mentioning her, please?"
"Of course mate." Zayn was the first to answer as he patted my back in support.
"Thanks." I smiled at him as the girls approached the table. They were only 3 of them, counting Amy and I remembered the other two from when Amy and I dated, so they weren't complete strangers, at least to me.
"Let's get some shots!" One of her friends, Stacy, spoke as soon as she got to the table. This was going to be along night, I could already tell that I was gonna get pissed. And I was okay with that, the alcohol would help me forget the fact that my girlfriend was potentially cheating on me, that she was ignoring my texts and that her pictures with the fucking guy were all over the internet.
