Niall's Pov:
Yesterday was hard, No scratch that it was heartbreaking. I'm torn, I've never felt so torn before. I went to get my mothers bracelet, But Cher and Zayn they came after me, Zayn he stopped me from going inside, He held onto me as if he was protecting me from harm. Zayn took care of me, It felt like he really did care for me, But how could he? How could he care after he walked out on me? How am I supposed to pretend like everythings ok just because he stopped me yesterday? He can't honestly think that will prove anything to me, So what he stopped me and maybe saved me from another kick in, He wasn't there when I needed him the most, He wasn't there when I lost my mum, He wasn't there when my dad turned to booze, He wasn't standing beside me when my mum was placed in the ground, Zayn was never there, He can't think that because he's been there once were friends again. I don't trust him, Even after yesterday I still don't trust him. Part of me wants to forgive him, It really does, But the other half of me is afraid, I'm afraid to get close to him incase he hurts me again. I'm just afraid, I'm scared to live my life again. I sighed before finally opening my eyes, I blinked a few times until I realized I had been moved. Last night I was laid out on the couch with Zayn now I'm in his bed? Zayn must have carried me up there last night, I shook my head before sitting up, My lifes complicated as it is, I don't need this right now, I can't decide whether I trust Zayn enough to let him in, Because right now I don't feel like I can trust at all.
After I'd taken a shower and got changed I made my way downstairs. I walked into the kitchen to find Trisha making a cup of coffee, She turned around the moment she heard me enter the room, She smiled lovingly at me.
"How did you sleep?" She asked.
"Good thank you" I mumbled, Trisha nodded before pouring me a cup of tea, She handed it to me and I took a quick sip before placing it on the table.
"Zayn told me what happened yesterday, How you feeling?" She asked, I shrugged my shoulders.
"Feel kind of stupid" I whispered.
"Why did you go back Niall?" She asked.
"Her bracelet, It's the only thing I have left of her, It's there in that house and I can't get it" I stated, Trisha lowered her head.
"I understand how much it means to you Niall, But your safety has to come first, You can't risk yourself like that, I've arraigned to meet your dad today, I'm going to speak to him while he's sober, Zayn's dad is coming to, So your staying with Zayn today" She stated.
"What are you going to say?" I asked.
"He needs help Niall, Professional help" She replied.
"You mean like rehab?" I asked.
"If that's the only thing that can help him then yes" She exclaimed, I nodded my head just as Zayn walked into the room.
"Morning" He said as he went over to kiss his mum.
"How you feeling Niall?" He asked me, I nodded my head.
"Better" I whispered, Zayn nodded.
"I was thinking maybe we could go skateboarding later?" Zayn asked, I gave him a confused look.
"You can't skateboard" I said, Zayn smiled slightly.
"I've been practising" Zayn commented with a grin, I smiled slightly before shaking my head.
"Ok, Well I'll go get ready" I replied before standing up, As I left the kitchen I heard Zayn and his mother speak.
"You have a long road ahead of you Zayn" She said.
"I know, He still dosen't trust me, And I don't blame him, But I'm not giving up mum, I owe him and our friendship that much" Zayn stated.
Skateboarding with Zayn wasn't going the way I think he planned, I couldn't skateboard to save my life, I was constantly falling off, Of course Zayn chuckled at this before helping me up. This felt strange to me, I wasn't used to spending time with Zayn again. It felt surreal how normal it was for us to be around eachother, I kept seeing glimpses of how our friendship used to be, Honestly it made me miss it more then ever. I shook my head before sitting down on the curb.
"I can't do it" I stated, Zayn shook his head.
"Sure you can, Come on I'll teach you" Zayn stated as he extended his hand, I hesitated before taking hold of it, Zayn then pulled me to my feet, I sighed as Zayn placed the skateboard on the floor, I then placed one foot on it as Zayn held onto my hand.
"Just try to balance yourself first" Zayn said, I nodded before doing as he said.
"Alright now place that foot on the ground and push forward then place your foot back on the board and try heading straight forward" Zayn stated.
"What if I fall off?" I asked.
"You won't, I got you" He exclaimed, I nodded my head before doing as he said, I felt the skateboard move and I began to get nervous, I could feel myself losing control of the skateboard but I didn't fall off, Zayn made sure of that, I smiled as I noticed I was doing it right. I smiled happily before the board came into contact with a rock, The board fell forward taking me with it, And I took Zayn with me, We both fell to the ground.
"Well that wasn't part of the plan" Zayn commented, I tried to hold it in but I ended up laughing, Zayn smiled before joining in with my laughter.
"It's good to see you smiling Niall" Zayn said, I chuckled before shaking my head. "Listen I have to do something will you be ok getting home?" Zayn asked, I nodded my head.
"Yeah, But I have something to do first" I replied.
"What's that?" Zayn asked.
"I haven't been to see my mum in a while" I stated, Zayn nodded before standing up he then pulled me to my feet.
"Call me if you need me ok?" Zayn stated, I nodded my head before leaving the park.
"Hey mum, Sorry I haven't been to see you in a while, Loads of things have been happening, But I suppose you already know that. Trisha knows about dad, She's taken me in so I'm now staying with her, It's weird being there but I feel happy, Like I don't have to worry about a thing, Does that sound weird? Anyway I'm not here to talk about that, I need your help mum, It's about Zayn, I feel lost, I don't really know what to do. I want to trust him because of the friendship we had, But I don't know if I can. I'm afraid mum, I don't even know if he remembers everything, I was there for him mum and he was there for me, I want things to go back but how can they when I'm so afraid? He saved me the other day, Your bracelet it's back at the house, I wanted to get it but Zayn he stopped me, He probably saved me from another beating. Even after that I'm questioning if I can trust him. I suppose I need you to give me a sign mum, I need you to tell me if I should trust him, You always knew what to say, Help me mum please"
"Niall?" Zayn's voice sounded in my ears, I quickly turned around to see him standing there.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"It's raining I thought you would want a lift" Zayn replied, I snapped out of my own thoughts to find that it actually was raining.
"Oh right, Erm how much of that did you hear?" I asked.
"Enough, I don't blame you for not trusting me yet, I wouldn't either, But I'm going to make it up to you Niall, Starting with this" Zayn stated as he pulled something out his pocket, I gave him a confused look as he held out his hand, My eyes widened as I saw my mothers bracelet in his hand.
"Wh-Whe-How?" I stuttered out, Zayn shrugged his shoulders.
"You wanted it, I couldn't risk you getting caught so I got it for you" Zayn replied, I smiled at him before taking the bracelet from his hand, Zayn smiled as I placed it back on my wrist.
"Back where it belongs" Zayn stated, I nodded my head as tears began to fall from my eyes.
"Thank you" I whispered before pulling Zayn into a tight hug.
