Once Upon A Time..

-Amanda's POV-
-The next morning-

I wake up on the couch beside Niall. He's still asleep. So just to not wake him up, I quietly walk to my room. I never told anyone this... But today is the day, I'm going to tell Niall. I don't know how to tell him this, but I'll just wing it.
I comb my hair and put a pretty bow on it. Then, I grab my black skinny jeans and a grey sweater and slip it on. I sit on my bed and write on my diary.

Dear diary,

I believe it's time to tell Niall the truth about me. The fact I'm adopted. Most people think it's not important. But it actually is really important and I hope Niall will realize how important it is. Because I never met my real parents.

I put my diary away and lay on my bed, thinking about how I'm going to tell Niall.
I then see Niall at the corner of my eye. Just staring at me. He smiles.
"What's up? Why'd you leave me?" He asks.
I sigh.
"I don't know how to tell you." I sigh.
"Tell me what?" Niall asks as he sits down beside me and puts an arm around me.
"What's bugging you, baby?"
"I don't know how to tell you. It's the reason my parents... are never here." I feel tears falling down my face.
"Did they die?" He asks.
"Not really, kinda. It's actually because..... you never met my parents." I say.
"What? How? I met your mom before remember?" He asks.
"But Niall... She wasn't my real mom." I say while wiping away a few more tears.
"What do you mean?" He asks.
"I...... was adopted." I say.
"Well what happened to your real parents?" He asks.
"I don't like talking about what happened." I sigh while hugging him.
"Please tell me. I'm here for you." Niall says back. I take a deep breathe.

"Well, my adoption parents told me, that long ago, when I was younger, my parents got into a terrible accident. A car accident. We were in the car, and I was in the back seat with my aunt. Some stupid drunk driver hit our car very hard, luckily my aunt was there to protect me, but in the end, my mom, dad and aunt all ended up dead and I was an orphan. When I was 5, my adoption parents decided to take me.... and.. yea that's kinda my whole story." I take a deep breath

I lay back on my bed.
"Oh my gosh Amanda." Niall say, hugging me.
"Your story is so sad I think I'm crying myself." He says while actually wiping tears.

The doorbell then rings. We both get up and walk over to the door. I open it and see Tiffany.
"What happened? Are you both fighting again? Why are you crying?" She asks curious.
"I told him." I say.
"About wha- Oh.. you told him your adopted?" She asks.
"Yes." I said.
"And you told him your story, and he feels bad for you and you made him cry. Aweh poor Niall." Tiffany says.
"What? How do you know that?" I ask.
"Well, why is he all teary? Of course you told him the story!" Tiffany says.
"True."
"Okay, well I came here to tell you something... but I forgot." Tiffany says. I laugh.
"Well come back when you remember." I then close the door.

Niall and I go sit on the couch. We face each other.
"Any other secrets?" Niall asks. "You seem to be keeping so many things from me."
"Yes, I have another." I say.
"What is it?" He asks.
"I stalk you." I smile.
"Really? Prove it!" He says.
"I know where you live."
"Your my girlfriend, how could you not know where I live?" He asks.
"Okay okay fine. That's not the secret." I say, the smile from my face disappearing.

"Then what?" He asks curiously
"There is something I've been wanting to tell you, and do with you. But I'll save it for later in our relationship, right now let's talk about our 2 month trip to Paris. I can bet you my parents wont mind. All they want is for me to be happy. And I'm perfectly happy with you." Amanda grabs my hands, then softly kisses me.
