Chapter 20

Andy's POV

"Niall, I-I can't do this." I stuttered, walking away backwards but Niall's hands held both my arms and pushed me back to the door.

"Yes, you can." He assured me, patting my back before running to the side to hide.

I stared at the door, reluctantly holding up my balled fist to knock. I'm scared, what if I get rejected? I just hate that feeling so much especially when I get rejected from someone I loved. I take in a huge amount of oxygen before finally deciding to knock, my knuckles brushed against the wooden door but right when I was about to hit it, the door opened, two familiar blue eyes were exposed but they were bloodshot, his brown hair was all messed up and his plump lips were dry, his stained cheeks were clear from the tears that strolled down.

"A-Andy." His voice cracked, making me feel guilty and disgusted of myself. How could I have broken a good heart?

"Louis," I whispered his name and continued, "I-I'm sorry. But, I think I only love you as a friend." Was all I said, and now, I'm feeling even more guilty as a tear escaped his eye.

"It's okay." He softly said, seeing him like this made me cry and I didn't even notice the tears that brimmed my eyes, those salty teardrops just came out of my eyes.

"I'm glad you said you only want me as a friend. I love you, but you don't have to love me because I know that you found someone who's better than me, maybe Harry loves you more than I do. These thoughts makes me sad and even if I really hate to admit this.. well, I have to, t-that... that I'm not the one for you, even if I thought you were the one for me." He cried.

"But, I want do this one last time." He spoke, starting to lean in and before I could even utter a single word, his soft lips met mine. I was surprised, I couldn't react. It was like I was paralysed or frozen. Hints of tingles ran down my spine. It felt right yet so, so wrong. I wanted to push him away but I couldn't, until I realised that I've practically cheated on Harry.

My eyes went wide at the thought that I had cheated on Harry, I pulled away. "I'm so sorry Louis." I said and buried my face into my palms. Surprisingly, he hugged me, I missed his scent, I missed it being like this, I missed him. I love both of them but I can have them at the same time, it's not right. I think I love Harry more.

I looked at him with a weak smile which he returned weakly as well, "Friends?"

Louis nodded,"I have to go." He excused himself with a weak smile, leaving me on his doorstep as he walked towards his car. When he sped off, Niall came back rushing by my side, shushing me and comforting me.

"It's okay." He cooed and walked me to his car, when we got in he started to drive with the radio on in a low volume. Niall then told me that he's taking me to a near Starbucks branch to cool off and relax.

I ordered my usual and sat on a table in the corner of the café, few costumers were only around, considering that it was almost midnight. Blankly staring at my hot coffee with my head leaning on the glass, Niall finally spoke, "Hey, everything's gonna be okay. You now have Louis as a friend and you have Harry. It was what you wanted, wasn't it?"

I nodded reluctantly and thought, was it really what I wanted?

*Ring*
*Ring*
*Ring*

My phone rang obnoxiously, making me groan in frustration, I'm not really in the mood for answering calls right now, so I purposely missed it.

*Ring*
*Ring*
*Ring*

My phone rang again, and it was annoying me. "You should take that call. It might be important." Niall said, handing me my phone as it showed the caller ID of Alex, I took Niall's advice and turned it into speaker.

"What do you want, Alex?" I asked softly.

"Andrea, it's about Harry." He panted and I immediately tensed up, "Why what's wrong?" I began to panic, Niall and I looked at each other with worry in our eyes.

"He's in the hospital."

Harry's POV

And then Niall and Andy took off in a blur.

Where is this little rebel gonna go now?! She might get hurt, or be in trouble! "This is all your fault!" I accused Alex, turning around him with a scowl on my face.

"How is it my fault? It was you who came around just like that!" He exclaimed, attempting to push me backwards but I didn't even budge.

"Well, if only you had to make the conversation in a more private place, then this wouldn't have happened. But no, you just had to talk to me, were you really that desperate? Or you just had to do it so that Andrea could hear us? You knew about her and you knew that she would be eavesdropping!" I cried out loud and he glared at me, knowing that I had a point. As much as I wanted to make a cocky smirk right now, I just couldn't. I'm too worried to have time of being cocky right now.

"You don't have to worry about her, Harry. She can take care if herself. She's a big girl." He said, his face softened as he patted my shoulder. I wanted to tell him to piss of but I decided not to waste my saliva on him. Without giving him a single word, I hopped into my car, "Where are you going?" Alex asked.

"I'm gonna find her." I stated and drove off.

Now where in the world could she have gone? Earlier, I saw her bringing a backpack and as she was running, I heard the sound of light irons clanging. Aha! She's out to do some spray painting! But where? "What a delinquent," I thought and grinned as I did. Slowly, I parked my car on the side and pulled out a flashlight, beaming the light towards the road. There I saw droplets of liquified gas that headed north. I smirked, I'm too smart to not know that. Instead of using my car, I decided to walk just incase I might lose my tracks.

The stains stopped right in front of.. Louis's house?

Then there I saw her, wrapped inside Louis's arms. Lips locked and when I blinked, they were resting their heads on the crook of each other's necks. My heart starts to break, I should've known. She doesn't really love me. Who am I kidding? We just got together right after Louis and her. Of course she wouldn't get over him in just a little time. I let out light chuckles, shaking my head as tears started to brim my eyes. I'm just her bully, why bother? I'm just her bully, I used her as a rebound, could it be that she just used me as a rebound too? I sighed and walked back to my car.

Maybe the next thing that'll happen is that she'll be coming back home with a happy face and say that she never really loved me and she really loved Louis after all. i sighed and just drove and drove, I don't know where to go. Where do I go now? I slowly stopped when a red light brightened the silent and empty road, whilst lightly tapping on the stirring wheel as tears freely fell from my eyes. I sniffed and drove again, my vision becoming blurring as I continued to drive.

And before I knew it, a hard impact from my right hit me. Then everything went black.
