Kiss Me Goodbye
Chapter 1: "Marrisa?"
Marissa's POV
As I woke up I looked at my clock.
"Nine thirty? ugh. " I said as I sat up and walked over to the bathroom, I quickly washed my face, brushed my teeth, and combed my hair. I put into a braided bun and walked back into my bedroom. I slipped on my black slippers and turned towards the mirror. I still had on my turquoise board shorts turquoise sports bra, and my ‘wild free’ hoodie. I walked over to my bed and laid down. I grabbed my iPod off of my end table and turned it on. The first song to come on was 'Moments'. I gasped When Niall solo came on I felt tears threatening to spill from my eyes.
"I miss you Niall." I said quietly to myself. "Why is it you had to run away and become a celebrity and leave your best friend behind?" I asked myself quietly.
I quickly wiped my eyes and sat back up. I grabbed my phone and shoved it into the pocket of my hoodie and stood up. I grabbed my hamper and walked downstairs. I walked down to my basement and into the laundry room. I saw my dog, Lady laying on her dog bed, fast asleep.

I was about to pour in my clothes until I remembered I ran out of laundry soap. Shit. I grabbed my hamper and poured my clothes into a smaller basket. I guess I will have to go to the washers cause I don’t got my car and i'm out of soap. I bet the local store won't have soap cause they suck. I groaned and turned around, I walked up the stairs and into the kitchen, I grabbed my keys and put them in my pocket. I walked over to the door to my flat. I took my key out and unlocked it. I walked out and locked it again. I set my basket down and grabbed my phone out. I popped in my headphones and turned on my music. ‘At This Moment by Michael Bublé’ came on, I smiled and put my phone into my pocket, I picked up the basket and walked down the cement stairs.
I walked down and onto the London streets. I walked down the street pass people. Not that many people were out. I walked down the street and turned the corner until I saw that laundromat, by now Autumn Leaves by Ed Sheeran was on. I walked into the small laundromat and saw a old man with gray hair sitting on a stool by the desk in the front. I walked over to the last aisle with washers and dryers, The washers were a light blue, almost teal color. with a bench in the middle. I walked to the third washer. I opened the lid and put them in. I closed it and set my basket on top. I walked over to the old man and asked him for some detergent. He gave me a small packet for me to use. I walked over to it and poured the content of the packet into the washer. I turned on the settings. I put 5 pounds into the washer slot. I then pressed start and it started washing.
Niall’s POV:
I ran down the block as the screaming fan-girls followed close behind. Sometimes I hate being in a popular boy-band. I ran down the sidewalk and turned a corner quickly. I went into the nearest shop. I ran in and to the back. I turned and saw the girls run past the shop. Phew. I saw a old man sitting at a small gray desk while reading a faded old newspaper. I turned around and saw I was in a laundromat, there was only two people here. A lady who looked like she was in her mid-thirties, and a girl with brunette hair. She was singing a familiar song, but I couldn't hear it clearly, I walked over to the aisle she was in, I could hear what she was singing, ‘Because of You’ by Kelly Clarkson, I recognized that voice, I leaned slightly so I could see her face, She had brown eyes, she had light pink lips, small ears, and had an olive complexion. She reminded me of Marissa, my best friend from Mullingar, But it couldn't be her, she had blonde hair, wait. She might of dyed it to her original color. I think that might be her. http://data.whicdn.com/images/27906186/tumblr_m3gks05C8K1qkf588o1_500_large.jpg
“Marissa?” I asked as I looked at her wide eyes. I saw her turn towards me, her eyes widened, that was Marissa! She removed her headphones from her ears.
“Niall?” she asked examining my features.
“Hi Mari.” I said shyly waving my hand, She stood there shocked. I smiled and pulled her into a hug, her head rested on my chest as I rubbed my hand on her back.
“I missed you.” I whispered slightly.
“I missed you too.” she mumbled against my chest. I let her go and looked at her face. Her brown eyes were filled with tears as she looked at me.
“Don’t cry.” I said as I wiped the tear now falling from her eye.
“I just missed you.” she mumbled softly.
“me too.”
“hey Niall?” she asked.
“Yes darlin?” I said as I winked towards her. she laughed slightly.
“Why haven’t you called?” she asked softly. It then hit me.
*Flash-back*
“Do you have to go now?” she cried against my chest.
“Yes Mari. I have to.” She grasped my shirt tighter as she cried.
“I’m not letting you go.” she mumbled.
“Please? I will call you as soon as I get there.”
“Exactly when you get there?” She asked now pulling away from me.
“As soon as my feet touch the ground.” I smiled, she slightly smiled then a frown came back.
“i’m going to miss you.”
“I’ll come back darlin, don’t you worry.” she smiled.
“Flight 768 to Dublin now boarding.” I heard a flight attendant say over the intercom. She bit her tongue.
“Bye Niall.” she said softly.
“Bye Mari.” I said as I hugged her tight one last time. I pulled away from her. Tears were welling up. I quickly turned towards the entrance of the plane and started walking.
“Niall wait!” I heard her yell. I turned back and saw her run up to me. She suddenly grabbed my face and pressed her light pink lips onto my slightly darker ones. I felt a tingling sensation. She released her lips and looked into my eyes, I was still shocked.
“Bye.” she whispered before she turned and walked away.
**Flashback Over**
“I-I-I don’t know.” I mumbled. She looked at me sympathetically.
“Anyway, let’s catch up, three years is long.” I quickly said. She smiled.
“One sec.” she smiled. She finished putting her clothes into the dryer. She closed it and put 8 pounds into the dryer. she then turned it on.
“Okay, where should we start?” she asked as she sat on the bench.
“Um, since I left.”
-*-*-
“And after they signed that contract I moved here.” she replied. Wow.
“So we both have our dream jobs.” I said as I smiled. She told me that she graduated a year early then she sent her wedding dress designs to a store called Kleinfelds and they got rejected twice, then she got accepted and now her dresses are their best-selling ones, she even showed me some of her dresses on her phone, and they are beautiful!
“Yea we do.” she said as she folded her now dry clothes. She put the last shirt into the basket.
“Hey Niall, do you want to come to my flat? I’ll show you my dresses and stuff.” She asked as she looked at me.
“Um, yea!” i said as I smiled towards her, I sat up and walked beside her. She walked over to the man and handed him 4 pounds.
On the way to her flat we talked about the boys and how we just finished our tour. She listened closely as we did, when we arrived she handed me the basket as she unlocked the door to her flat. We walked in and she took the basket and went upstairs. I looked around, the hallway led to a kitchen, the kitchen had marble counter-tops which were black, the cupboards were a light brown and the appliances were silver, they looked nice, there was a wall then you saw the living room, the floor was also brown and wooden. the couches were brown and had white and brown pillows. there was some sort of painting over the wall and across was a tv, there was a small door on the south side and there was blinds covered by sheer white curtains, I think that was the porch. http://www.apartmentwiz.com/dallas_apartments/images/dallas_apartments_images/plano_apartments/tribeca_apt_interior_living_1.jpg
“Like it?” I heard from behind me.
“Yes, its so. Basic.” I heard her laugh. I turned towards the kitchen and walked into it.
“Can we make brownies?” I asked looking around, I loved her brownies, so good.
She laughed.
“Sure Niall, just let me get dressed, you can raid the fridge.” I laughed, she turned around and walked away. I missed her, especially her laugh.
As I woke up I looked at my clock.
