Indecision (ON HOLD)
Chapter 4
It was finally Saturday, and today's was the day that Niall was taken me to that place. Where will he take me? Who knows. I looked at the clock and it was1:45 pm. I was wearing yellow shorts black converses and a black shirt, and went downstairs to eat breakfast.
"Hello!" I announced to Harry who was still half asleep on the sofa, and my mom, since my dad was at work, he was not here.
"What are you going to eat?" she asked me while she was frying sandwich buns on a flat pan.
"Just a sandwich" I replied.
"What time are you leaving?" She asked while making sure that the buns don't get burned.
"He should be here any minute," I responded.
After a few minutes, I hear the engine of a car. I went to look outside and saw Niall's car parking on the main entrance of my house. I ran to get my purse and opened the door. When Niall saw me, I motioned him to come inside.
"Mom, this is Niall. Niall this is my mom" I motioned my hands to both of them.
"Nice to meet you ma'am" he handed his hand to shake with mom. She gratefully took it and said, "you too".
"Ok, Faith we should be going-"
"Where are you taking her?" Harry out of nowhere blurred out.
"He can't tell, it's a secret, Harry" I said annoyed.
"Then she can't go" he said sternly to Niall.
"You're not the boss of me, Harry! Mom you said you could let me go!" I referred to her.
"Ok, since it is a secret, Niall come here and tell me" she pulled him towards her and he whispered something to her, making her eyes go wide.
"Wow, really?" She asked and Niall nodded. I was now annoyed by the fact that they knew where we were going and I wasn't.
"Mom! we have to go!"
"Mom, seriously are you going to let her go? Just like that?"
"Be careful and have fun!" She spoke, completely ignoring Harry. Her voice trailed off when I shut the door closed, she was scolding him for referring to her as woman and not mom.
As always, since he started to pick me up, he was at the passenger side to open the door for me. “Ok, let’s go” I said with a sigh of relief.
After a long ride to whatever that place is, I started to get tired. "Niall, it's been twenty minutes, when are you going to tell me where are we going?" I asked with a whiney tone.
"Just hold on we're almost there," he responded with nervous tone.
"How much longer?" I asked.
"Actually, we're here." he let out a small sight.
I looked outside and saw the big logo of "Six Flags" and jumped up and down in my seat like a little girl.
"Why didn't you tell me? I was dying to go here!"
"You like it?" He asked with a relief sight.
"I love it!" I squeaked. I have never been in a roller coaster, I'm pretty sure I will love it.
"Ok, I was afraid you wouldn't like it" he looked away to search for a place to park the car.
"Why wouldn't I?"
"Well, I was afraid you’ll hate it, because you have already been here.” he looked at me with worried eyes.
“Are you kidding? If it were for me, I would be living here.” He laughed at my comment. There’s something about his laugh that it makes me want to hear it again.
“Alright then, shall we go?” he asked and I nodded. As always I waited for him to open the door for me, and I thanked him.
“Where should we go first?” he asked me and immediately, I pointed to a roller coaster painted purple, and the seats were hanging from a “not so safe looking tube”, as Niall would call it.
“Oh come on, it’ll be fun” I said and literally dragged him to the machine. When we got to our seats, I sat on the right window seat and Niall sat to my left. I adjusted my seat belt with the assistance of the employes, and so did Niall.
“Ready?” I looked at him, and saw sweat forming in his forehead.
“Can I tell you something?” He asked really nervous. He looked like he was sick.
“Niall you don’t look so good,” I said, worry clear in my voice.
“I’m fine, it’s just that…” The machine started moving. There was no way to stop this anymore, even if I wanted to, I couldn’t. “I have never ride on a roller coaster.” Oh my god, I let out a sigh of relief, is this why he was like that.
“It’s going to be fine, I promise” I holded his hand, when we were about to reach the top. I could feel that his hand tightened, and when I looked at his face, he was already looking at me. Somehow his facial expression softened, his eyes formed a sea blue color with the help of the sun, and his dirty blonde hair was messy due to the wind. “just scream when I tell you to, ok?” he nodded and his hand tightened a little more. “together, 3..2..1…” we both counted down until went down.
I could feel the adrenaline in my stomach, it feels so good to scream without anybody telling you to shut up. For so long, actually two months, I wanted to release this tension that I had and also the anger. The words I didn’t tell him when he hurt me, and kept them, but I know that this is momentarily. When this ride is over, the feeling will come back again. How can I get rid of this feeling? I glanced over at our hands and realised that his hand is way bigger than mine, but somehow fits perfectly. As discrete as I could, from the corner of my left eye, I looked at Niall, and I could not believe what I saw. His eyes were sealed, his mouth was forming a smile, at the same time his thumb was carefully caressing my left hand. This was a clever move I have to admit, thankfully the ride was not over and I could disguise my giggles as part of the adrenaline from the roller coaster.
