A Million Pieces

Niall's POV:
I woke up to an empty bed. At first I was confused as to where I was, but I soon remembered the previous night. "Whoa." I said to myself. "Did that really happen?" The same question kept replaying in my head. But also with the same answer. "Yes it did." But where was Megan? She wasn't in bed next to me. I got out of bed and instantly noticed something. I jumped right back under the covers. "Where are my pants?" I asked myself. I glanced around the room until I saw my black dress pants on the other side of the room. I got up and walked towards them, being very cautious about being seen. I didn't bother with a shirt, but when I finally got my pants on, I walked out of the bedroom and started walking through the house. I stopped in the kitchen first. I was starving. I opened the fridge and saw nothing but beer, vodka, wine, scotch, gin, rum, whiskey, and a little bit of bourbon. I grabbed a beer and popped the cap. "What happened to my baby girl? She has resorted to liquor? Is that how she solves things? She just drinks her love away? And this is the only thing she has in her entire fridge?" Suddenly I got a feeling of disappointment. I just brushed it off and continued my search for Megan. I took a sip of my beer and my face lit up. I haven't had liquor in months. I tried to give it up but I guess I forgot. The last 24 hours have been a little crazy. But I kinda miss it. I heard some soft sobs coming from the other side of the house. I ran to the spare bedroom, spilling some of my beer in the process. I opened the door and saw a small figure on the other side of the room. "Oh my god. What's wrong?" I asked her finally seeing the amount of crying she had done. There was a surprised look on her face. "Get out!" She screamed. "Get out of my house!" "Megan your not thinking this through. Just take a deep breath." "I don't wanna take a deep breath! I'm fine!" "Look Niall. Last night was a mistake. Were best friends. But that's it. That's all it's ever been. And that's all it'll ever be. Now get out of my house." She was back in her normal voice again. I liked it better when she didn't yell. But I did as I was told and I walked straight out the front door.

Megan's POV:
Its been a few days since I've seen Niall. I felt bad about what I said to him. I couldn't afford to loose him. Not at a time like this. "I need to go find him." I say to myself. I wipe away my tears and walk outside to my car. But then I realize why Niall was here last night, to drop me off. I begun to walk into town when I realize I don't have any money. I pull out my wallet. 3 dollars. Tears began to form in my eyes. The picture of me and harry. I always kept this picture in my wallet, to make me happy. But now it just makes me cry. When I'm finally downtown, I start to turn back. There is a scree and surprised look on my face as I quickly turn around and begin walking faster in the direction of my house. "Hey Megan wait!" I hear a familiar voice say behind me. I want to start running, but I stop. I immediately regret it. "What do you want?" I ask as I flip around. "I just want to talk." "We have nothing to talk about!" I scream back. "I don't want to talk about it ok?!" "Megan I'm sorry! Ok?Is that what you wanna hear?" "Yeah well sorry doesn't fix broken hearts." I turned around and began to walk away. I felt a hand on my shoulder. "I said wait." "Get off of me!" I screamed. "Is this man giving you trouble?" I heard a police officer say. "No were fine officer." He said. The police officer walked away and I heard a sigh of relief. "Can we please just talk about this?" "There is nothing to talk about." There were tears starting to form in my eyes. I decide to give in. "Over coffee?" I nodded my head and I walked willingly into the Starbucks across the street.

"Biscotti frappe-chino please." "What size?" "Tall please." "Coming right up. And for you?" "You sell tea?" "Yes." "Earl gray." "About 5 minutes." "Thanks." The woman accepted the ten dollar bill and we walked to a table. "So." I said awkwardly. "So." I heard in response. "I really am sorry about what I did to you." "Yeah sure." "If you were really sorry, you wouldn't keep doing it." "That's the only time I've ever done something like that. And I've regretted it every second. I miss you Megan. Please come back." "I can't. You have to know that." "Here you are." She said as she handed us our drinks. "Look. I don't wanna be the girl who keeps crying about the same things." "You don't have to cry. Do you remember what you used to say to me?" "Every day you would say you loved my smile. What happened to that? Don't you miss it?" "I miss your smile. But I miss mine more." There was a long pause. Goodbye harry." I turned and walked out of Starbucks, and in the direction of my house. "Savannah please be home."

I walked through the door and I was bombarded by a very harsh tone. "When did you start takin depression pills?!" She screamed. "Savannah calm down. I'm fine. Those are old." I felt bad about lying. "Your a bad lier. Has anyone ever told you that? Now why are you taking these pills?" "Have you ever been left on your wedding day? No? Well has anyone ever told you that it really fucking hurts?!" "No. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you," "of course you didn't! No one ever does! But it seems to happen a lot!" There was a long pause. "I'm sorry savannah. I didn't mean to yell." "It's ok. I understand what your going through is hard. I get that. You just have to find another way to solve it." "Where were you the other night?" I asked. "With Alex. Why?" "I'm just wondering." "Where were you?" She asked. "In bed." "With who?" "No one! Just myself." "Here you go again with the bad lying. Now who was it?" "I promise it was no one." I couldn't handle lying to her but she couldn't know. "Hungry?" I asked as I walked to the phone. "Starved." "I'm gonna order Chinese. K?" "Perfect."

About thirty minutes later, we were sitting on the couch, with Chinese food and the tv. I didn't realize it at the time but savannah was in the middle of sipping her drink. "I had sex with Niall." Water went everywhere. "You what?!"

Notes
