High School Romance

Tabby P.O.V.

September 14th

2:12 P.M.

"Uh.....my house isn't the biggest, so please don't criticize." I begged, while he chuckled.

"I would never do that." He gave me a warm smile and I parked into the drive way. "Oh, and I forgot to tell you that really like your new car." He noticed my new car? I'm head over heals for this guy. We walked up to my front porch and I grabbed my keys out of my purse. Thanks to my stupid fingers, I fumbled with the keys and they dropped onto the concrete steps.

"Shit." I cursed at myself. I was about to reach down and grab then, but Niall stopped me.

"I got 'em." He determined and I mentally thanked him. He unlocked the door and we went in.

"How did you know that those were the home keys?" I asked. He held up the home key and written on it with a black sharpie said: HOME KEY. "Oh, right." I remember that I caught my dad "labeling them". "Ragnar! Come here boy!" I called. I heard a light pitter-patter from the floor above us, to the stairs and then jumping up on top of me. "Hi boy, what's up?" I said in my light baby voice. He licked my face while I heard Niall laughing hysterically in the back. Ragnar then left me and began jumping on Niall and licking his face, then it was my turn to laugh really hard. Niall was trying not to laugh as Ragnar licked his face over and over again. I was dying, and Niall gave me the 'Seriously Tabby' look. "Ok, ok." I sighed. "Ragnar get off of Niall." He obeyed me -surprisingly- and followed me and Niall to the kitchen. I grabbed a juice box from the fridge and offered Niall one. "You want one?" I asked. "Uh, sure. What are they?" As he studied the label.

"Very Berry''. I said reading the title of the delicious juice. He ripped the straw from the box and pounded it against the counter letting the straw find it's way out. He stuck it in the hole of the juice box and began to drink. "Yummy." Is all he said before taking another sip.

"I know, right." As we drank our juice , I gave him a tour of the house.

......................................

"This is the bathroom and this is my room." I opened my bedroom door and turned on the light.

"This is a nice place Tabby." He complimented. I blushed.
"Well, I'm glad you like it." I sat down on my bed and patted the seat next to me. "Do you want to talk about it?" I asked referring to his mother.

Niall P.O.V.

"Uh, sure, I guess?" I sat down on the small, comfy bed and talked to Tabby.
Tabatha.

Tabatha Henword.

She is just, so, so beautiful. With her light blue eyes and her golden brown hair. God. She looks like an angel. But then I have Hanna, who I really like. But....I don't know. I kept staring at Tabby, while she was just saying things like; blah blah blah mom blah blah blah dad blah blah blah waitress blah blah blah construction worker blah blah blah. I don't care.

She is just so, so perfect. "Niall, are you even listening to me?" She asked.

"Mhm." I answered. That was a lie. I couldn't help it. She was a distraction.

Tabatha Henword was my distraction.

Tabby P.O.V.

"I should go now." Niall grabbed his bag.

"Oh, ok." I followed him downstairs, his dad's car waiting for him. Niall called his dad to pick him up from my house. I offered to drop him off, but he didn't want any trouble. That was fine with me.

"I had a really nice time with you Tabby." We were now face to face.

"Me too." I answered. He slowly leaned in and my breathing hitched.

BEEP BEEP!
Niall's dad beeped the car horn and he pulled away immediately. "Um, I should go." He slung his bag over his shoulder.

"Okay." He walked towards the door and his hand reached the handle.

"Bye Tabatha Henword. See you tomorrow in class!" He was now outside waving through the window and I waved back smiling like an idiot.

Niall P.O.V.

I opened my dad's car and Coldplay was playing. "Who was that?" My dad asked.

"A girl." I replied as he started the car.
"Hanna?" I took my phone out of my pocket.

"No, not Hanna, Tabby." He nodded in remembrance and said, "The girl you have been talking about non-stop." I smiled.

"Yup." I unlocked my phone. I looked and saw two messages. One from my Hanna, and one from..... Tabby?

"So, as long as were alone, I thought we should talk about your mother." His eyes similar to mine, looking at the road. "Mhm." I responded. I looked at my phone and read Tabby's text first:

'Hey so um i just wanted 2 tell u that i had a really nice time with u and we shood do it again some time? ;) -T'

I smiled, but how did she get my number? "Son, I know it's tough, but we can get over this together as a family." I rolled my eyes.

"Oh yeah? How?" I stammered. Still looking at my phone, I pressed Hanna's text:

'Hey babe, so i was just thinkin that maybe u and i should go out and see a movies this weekend with the girls and guys? Huh? Sound good? xoxoxo ;) :) -Baby'

"Son! Give me that thing!" He grabbed the phone out of my hands.

"What the hell dad!" I shouted.

"We have to talk about your mother!" He gripped the wheel tighter.

"What do you want me to do???!!!" I was now full one raging. "Bring her flowers every fucking day!? Before school go to the goddamn hospital just to give her a fucking kiss on the cheek every fucking day?! And then when school is over, go to the hospital again and tell her about my special day at school! C'mon dad, we can't pretend that she's there! Fucking grow up!" I crossed my arms and looked ou the window. My dad looked like he was about to cry. "I'm sorry." I whispered. My dad was still focused on the road.

"I get it, we can't do that, but we can still support her. In every way possible." He reasoned

"Ok." My phone began to ring. "Umm, can I?" I asked, wanting to see who texted me. He nodded. I grabbed it from his hand and it was another text from Hanna:

'Well....i am waiting >:( - Babe'

Me: 'Uh, sure whatever. :) -Niall' As I waited for her text I texted Tabby.

Me: 'Yeah, sounds great! :) :D oh and how did u get my #? not that you are a stalker or anything :/ -Nialler' I pressed send and waited for her reply. Then my phone rang. It was Hanna:

'Finally...but ok. -Babe' I didn't text her back, I was still waiting for Tabby to answer. Then my phone rang again

Tabby: 'You gave it to me when we were talking about your mom silly! -Tabby' I smiled.

I need to pay more attention to her. She seems to be so interesting.

Tabby P.O.V.

I couldn't sleep at all last night. I was thinking about Niall the entire night.

.....................................

September 15th

6:15 A.M.

I had huge bags under my eyes. I had to use so much cover-up. So much.

I did my usual routine and drove to school. I met Niall at the school and walked to our classes together with his friends. Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson. Liam's arm was draped over Katherine's shoulder's giving me the evil eye. And Jules and Zayn were holding hands. I have to say, they are a really cute couple.

Hanna eventually found us all going from class to class and I swear, her and Niall had their tongues down each other's throat every time. It looked like Niall was actually trying to deny her sometimes. As I was walking to 3rd period I met up with Lizzy. I just needed a few minutes from the popular kids. "Hey Liz!" I shouted over to her, she didn't reply. As I got closer to her, it looked like she was going faster at getting her stuff. She then shut her locker and speed walked down the hallway, me running after her. "Hey! Hey Lizzy! Wait up!" I shouted running out of breath.

She then stopped and I almost ran into her. "What do you want?" She asked stubbornly. And then I noticed her outfit. It had color. PINK! Then I noticed her attitude.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Nothing." Her arms were crossed and leaned on her leg.

"No seriously, what's wrong?" I asked again, getting slightly annoyed.

"I waited outside for you. When the buses were letting the kids go, I waited for you. But noooo. You went right passes me. With them." She wasn't wrong.

I did go pass her.
