Something You Want to Forget About

Ameina’s POV

I kept staring at my telephone, which was still on my bedside table. Why didn’t I throw it away anyway? I wouldn’t need to call Niall anymore if he won’t talk to me. Damn, it’s been a freaking month and we never even said hi to each other!

I’m not even sure how I can live with this. Sure, bullies left me alone, but losing Niall makes me feel like my old self again. And I’d hate to feel that way.

Heck, why am I even worried? Am I falling for him? The simplest answer is probably yes. I don’t even know myself anymore. I always thought I’d never find someone like Niall.

His beautiful blue eyes, his blonde hair, his face…

Oh, his face. His sad, worried face when I ran away after he admitted his love for me. How could I even remember the look of his face after that? It was just so memorable.

God, I just want to forget all this. Can’t I just forget about it already? Seems like I can’t. I definitely can’t. I want to talk to him but… No. I don’t think that’s possible.

And now, you might be questioning why I feel so emotional about this.

Haven’t you already noticed? I love him so much it hurts.

Niall’s POV

It felt like forever since I’ve talked to ‘Meina, even though it’s just been a month. I’m pretty certain she hates me now. She doesn’t even look at me anymore.

What the hell am I supposed to do? Liam’s advice is still not working. He’s telling me to move on… I can’t. How am I supposed to move on when I’m deeply in love with Ameina?

I don’t know, but I need to talk to her as soon as possible. I’ll just pass her a note tomorrow.

But what if she thinks I’m just being too desperate?

I don’t know. There’s just… so many questions in my head right now.

I ripped a small piece of the paper in my notebook and wrote,

Meet me in the greenhouse at lunch later. It’s important

-Nialler-

In messy handwriting. I folded it to the size of a wad of chewing gum and threw it to Ameina, aiming at her desk.

Unfortunately, I missed and hit her shoulder instead. Luckily, she noticed, and picked it up from the floor. My heart pounded faster as she unfolded it.

She must have been reading it repeatedly, since it took her a long time to write back or put it down and her face got a bit more and more… I don’t really know how to describe it, but she looked a bit angry.

Ameina turned out not writing back. Well, at least she’s going to talk to me later.

And now I’m trying to come up with words to say to her in my head.

I walked in the greenhouse, both of my hands stuck in my hoodie pockets. It should be anytime now until she walks in to talk to me.

As I heard footsteps coming in, I turned around. It wasn’t ‘Meina, though. It was this blonde girl that I have math and history class with. Behind her was a brunette.

I raised an eyebrow, but ignored them. I’m waiting for Ameina, not them.

But before I could continue to walk further away from them, the blonde grabbed my arm and turned me around so that I’m facing them.

“What do you want?” I asked, rather grumpily. Can’t they see already that I’m waiting for someone?

The blonde smirked. “We know who you’re waiting for,” she sneered.

“It’s that ‘Ameina’ girl, isn’t it?” the blonde continued. God, please make this end sooner. “I’m afraid you won’t be able to get a chance to talk to her.”

“W-what?” I stammered, a bit confused. “What do you mean?”

Before I could say anything else, she smacked her lips on mine. Gross! I don’t even know her name.

I pushed her away angrily. What does this girl freaking want?
“God, what is your problem!?” I shouted. Now she’s just pissing me off.

She didn’t reply. She just pat my shoulder, smiled, and walked out.

And just guess who was standing at the entrance with an astonished face.

Ameina’s POV

I finished eating my lunch and told Claire and Maria I needed to go to class early to finish an assignment. Of course, that was a lie. I was going to see Niall in the greenhouse.

I’m actually pretty excited to talk to him. Is he going to apologize? Hopefully we get to talk again. I desperately need to talk to him…

I skipped cheerfully to the greenhouse, where Niall must be waiting. I tried to practice the words to greet him in my head.

When I was about to walk in, I saw a brunette and a blonde girl. The brunette was giggling, for some reason. I wasn’t sure what the blonde was doing. I only got her view from behind, but when I walked closer…

She muttered something, and kissed the blonde boy in a blue hoodie in front of her.

She was kissing Niall.

He pushed her away and yelled at her, and then the two girls just walked out. They walked right past me, giggling.

The blonde sneered at me. “You think we wouldn’t know you were meeting up with him?” she scoffed. “we saw him writing that note.”

They finally left me alone, standing at the entrance.

I can’t conjure up any words to describe my emotion right now.
