A Love Story

Niall’s POV.

As I walked down the halls at school, I was so nervous knowing that Candi could spill my secret any time today. I needed to tell Adrianne before she found out from Candia. Just then I saw Candi walk up to Adrianne at her locker. My heart, my head spun. I didn’t know what to do, so I pulled Adrianne away and into the closest empty class room.

“Niall? What was that for??” She questioned.

“I need to tell you something. Something very important! But it’s a lot to explain so I want you to meet me at the bakery where Layla and Harry work after school. Until then don’t believe ANYTHING anyone tells you about me. Ok? And stay away from Candi. I know this is a lot to take in right now, but just trust me!”

“Wow. Um ok. Is everything alright?”

“Things could be better, but don’t worry. I’ll explain everything at the bakery.”
Just then the bell rang for class, I gave her a quick kiss on the lips and ran to first period.

Adrianne’s POV.

Even though Niall told me not to worry, I was very worried. Why would he need to talk to me? Why do I need to stay away from Candi? I had to find Layla to ask her if I can come with her to the bakery. It was a good thing I had first period with her, it makes things so much easier sometimes.

“Hey Lala Niall wants me to meet him at the bakery after school, can I ride with you?” I asked Layla.

“Yea of course. But why? The bakery isn’t the most romantic place in the world.”

“Haha. Yea I know, but he needs to tell me something like REALLY important so he picked the bakery. It’s really cool how Harry got you that job! I wonder if he still remembers though? And Niall kinda scared me because he told me not to believe anything anyone said about him. He even told me to stay away from Candi.”

“Oo so by the looks of it your relationship is going well huh? He is now sharing secrets! And YES! I love the bakery! Mrs.Stevens is soooo SWEET!”

“Yea I guess you can say that! I’m just glad you cheered up. The boys won’t let Candi hurt you. Especially Liam!”

“Well I mean if Candi wants to try and kill me for Harry, he would end up hating her. We were really close friends, I just never had the courage to tell him how I feel.”

“I know sweetie. I know. Well we gotta get to class or Mr. Everhart will give us another late slip.”

As the bell rang for 7th period I walked to Layla’s locker so we can get going. Once I saw her we left the school and drove straight to the bakery. When we got there Niall was sitting on the table in the corner, he looked so nervous and scared.

“Hey babe. What’s up?” I said trying to sound as calm as possible.

“Promise me that whatever I tell you now won’t affect our relationship.” Niall said in a very serious voice.

“Niall, you’re scaring me. What the hell did you do?”

“Just promise!” his voice raised to a yell.
“Ok I promise.”

“Ok well I’m ganna get to making my cupcakes… I’ll be back with coffee for you guys. Um… have fun.” Layla said in the most awkward voice ever, it was hard not to laugh.

Niall’s POV.
“Ok well I’m ganna get to making my cupcakes… I’ll be back with coffee for you guys. Um… have fun.” Layla said in the most awkward voice ever.
I wanted her to stay so she can also hear it from me. So I grabbed her wrist firmly and said,

“No. I want you to hear this to.”

“Su-sure.” Her voice cracked.
She took a seat and I began.

“Wh-when I used to live in Ireland my… My parents were drug addicts.” I said feeling tears rim around my eyes remembering the horrible memories.

“It’s ok. Take your time.” Adrianne said grabbing my hand.

I took a deep breath and started again.

“Well one night they were so high that when I came home I found my mom on the floor naked, with blood everywhere. I went up to my dad to see what happened, he turned around with tears in his bloodshot eyes and blood on his hands to punch me in my left jaw. I was shocked and was still taking everything in that I just sat there on the floor analyzing what was going on. No longer than two minutes later he started to pound on my face senselessly. I didn’t want to punch back but it hurt bad and I couldn’t get up. I knew in the back of my head that I could seriously hurt him if I fought back. So I made it to the front door and ran. I ran as far as I can.” I said wiping tears from my eyes.
I looked up to see Layla crying and Adrianne with the saddest face ever. I grabbed both their hands and looked at both of them straight in the eye and said,

“I don’t want you guys to feel bad for me, I’m telling you this because someone is going to let this out. So I have to finish.”

I wiped a tear from Layla’s, kissed Adrianne’s hand and began again.

“I was so upset that I went to the gym to use the punching bag, I didn’t put on any gloves or even gym clothes. I just walked up to the punching bag and let it out. That’s when I met Jessica, she was at the gym that night and invited me for a couple drinks.”

“Oh god.” I heard Adrianne say under her breath.

I let a tear fall any finished what I had to say.

“My head was so-“ I choked.

I wanted to finish but it’s like my voice had vanished. Like my throat had a bunch of rocks stuck in it, nothing came out but sobs.

“It’s ok Niall. Don’t rush it, just tell us when you are ready.” Adrianne said.

“NO. I have to tell you now!” I surprised myself with that. I thought I was never going to be able to talk again. I wanted to finish telling them, I couldn’t take not knowing their reaction so I spilled it all out.

“I agreed to drinkswith Jessica, and we grabbed a couple shots. A couple of shots quickly turned to many, we were so drunk we left the bar straight to Jessica’s house. W-we had sex, but I was so drunk I didn’t take any precautions. Two weeks later she came to me all shooken up with tears in her eyes and tells me she is pregnant, I freaked out so I left everything back in Ireland and moved to London. Right now my baby is probably 1.”

Adrianne and Layla were frozen. I can tell they were so shocked because Layla had stopped crying and was just sitting there with wide eyes. Just then a tear rolled down Adrianne’s cheek and she got up leaving the bakery entirely. As I watched Adrianne leave with my eyes filled with tears I saw Candi laughing by the door watching what just happened.
