9 September 2012
The boys clean up since I made an effort to cook for them. I lay down on the couch and turn on the tv. An interview with the boys comes on. They join me on the couch. Niall puts his arm around me as the first question is asked. This is the first time since we got to LA that he showed he still likes me. I give him a peck on the cheek and turn back towards the tv. The interview goes on as they talk about their music and the VMA's. The last question is about their love life. A picture pops up of Niall kissing a girl over a table. And it's not me. "So Niall who is she? I thought you were with Annie?" I look to Niall and he takes his arm off of me. "Let me explain." "No." Tears are streaming down my face. I grab my nerf gun and run out of the hotel room. I run into the elevator and just sit down on the corner ignoring everyone who comes in. How could Niall do this again? I gave him another chance and he blew it. I just cry into my knees quietly as people come in then leave. Someone sits down next to me and puts their hand on my shoulder. I look up and see a boy. "Hi I'm Alex." "Annie." I say shaking his hand. "What's wrong?" "Well I saw an interview with my boyfriend Niall and it showed a picture of him kissing another girl. It's the second time." I say in-between sobs. "I just saw a picture of my girlfriend kissing another boy for the second time." I look into his eyes. The elevator stops and I put my face back to my knees and cry harder. He picks up my nerf gun. "a nerf gun?" "yeah incase him or one of his friends and my brother come in." I say with the slightest hint of a smile. "nice." "thanks." "so we will be in here awhile, what do you want to do?" "I don't know." "I have an idea." "tell me." he lays down and puts up his leg. "challenge accepted." I say doing the same. We have a leg war for about thirty minutes. He wins three out of the five times we played. We sit up and lean against the wall. "so tell me about Niall." "well he's a member of the band One Direction. He loves food. No one can stand seeing him cry, so we don't try. He was going to teach me to play guitar but I guess that's over." "he sounds cool." "I guess. Tell me about your girlfriend." "She loved to play the piano. She always tried to make people jealous. And she loves One Direction. And can I tell you something?" "sure." "that was her kissing Niall." my eyes fall to the floor. "She was always jealous of you. Niall didn't kiss her, She kissed him." I look back up. "how do you know?" "because Niall was my best friend before One Direction. We still are. But I know that he would never do that to anyone." a tear rolls down my cheek. "thanks." the elevator starts moving again and I walk out onto my floor. I'm still crying though. Even though he didn't kiss her, he kept it from me. I walk in and go straight to mine and Liam's room and lay on the bed. I shoot the door with the gun until I'm all out of darts. I change into my sweatshirt and pajama shorts and curl up in bed. I hug a pillow up to my chest and cry myself to sleep. My phone rings with a text from Harry. It's a picture of Niall crying. "We can't stand seeing him cry. He never meant to hurt you." I send a picture back of me crying. "Well then see if he can stand me crying." I send the pic and lay back down. The door opens and Niall walks in. "I can't." I look up and throw a pillow at him, but he catches it. Tears are running down his cheeks. "What?" "Annie please just listen." "fine." "She kissed me." "I know that." this take him by surprise. "Then why are upset?" "because you kept it a secret." he sits down on the edge of the bed. "I didn't want to hurt you." "You hurt me more by keeping it a secret." "I'm sorry." I wipe his tears away. "I can't stand seeing you cry." "no one can." he says scooting over and sitting next to me. "Let's promise never to make each other cry and we tell each other everything." "okay." he pulls me in-between his legs and wraps his arms around me. He rests his chin on my head. I fall asleep to him singing Same Mistakes in a hushed voice. He lays me down and tucks me into bed. He doesn't leave the room though. He sleeps on the chair beside the bed. I sleep for hours. Niall wakes me up around eleven saying someones here for me. I put my hair in a pony and walk out to the other room. "Oh. My. God. Your Justin Beiber!" I say standing in front of him. "He got a better reaction then us and Josh Hutcherson." Niall says. "I am." "Why are you here?" "Oh I just wanted to meet you. Your all the boys talk about." "is that so?" "yeah, but I have to go, so see you at the VMA's." "good luck!" I say as he walks out the door. I sit down at the bar in the kitchen. "So what's for breakfast!" I say smiling. "Well the VMA's are tonight so something special." Louis says picking me up and dropping me on the couch.
