Gone
Fourteen
They didn't even notice me as I approached them. He wrapped his hand around hers and whispered something in her ear. They stared into each other’s eyes longingly. Niall slipped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer. Obviously, I had missed something. I had no idea that Niall was into her like that. I didn't even know that Amber was into him like that.
"Um, what the hell?" I demanded.
I was more confused than angry about the situation. I was, however, frustrated she hadn't bothered to call me. She gazed up at me with her big brown eyes, a look of sheer guilt on her face.
"Could you give us a minute?" I asked.
I didn't even wait for him to reply as I pulled her aside. We walked a good ten metres before I interrogated her with questions.
"When did this happen?"
I struggled to keep my voice low. She twirled her fiery red locks around her fingers and stared at the ground.
"Well a while ago really," she stalled.
"And when were you planning on telling me about this?"
She gave me a look.
"Don't act so innocent, I've heard from five different people you now live with Josh! When did that happen?" she argued.
More like he was living with me. It was only for two weeks while his parents were on holiday. That was besides the point.
"Look, we've both been a little dishonest. No more secrets?"
She glanced over at him and nodded.
"No more secrets," she repeated as if to make sure she would remember.
"Promise me one thing Bambi," I said, trying to get her to look at me, "be careful yeah? You never know what secrets he could have,"
I knew from experience guys like Niall were always too good to be true.
"Don't know what you're on about," she said.
I could tell she didn't know whether or not I was joking. The tone of my voice contradicted the expression on my face.
"I just...I just care about you and don't want to see you get hurt. You know I will murder him if he tries anything,"
"Oh believe me, I know," she chuckled, "I'll be fine, I promise,"
Pretty much all her past boyfriends had turned out to be assholes. It really said something about the male race considering how many guys she had dated. I had no idea how she pulled so many guys. This was Amber I was talking about. She just did. No questions asked. By the fifteenth one I stopped keeping track. As soon as they broke her heart, I went crazy bitch on them and threatened them until they gave up and fucked off.
I marched over to Niall, hands folded across my chest. Amber tried to hold me back but I was determined to put him in his place. I needed to make sure he wouldn't break my best friend's heart. I stood over him to try and make him feel small. He didn't react.
"You hurt my girl, I hurt you," I growled.
For some unknown reason I sounded gangster. Though I tried my best to sound menacing, he smiled sweetly at my threat.
"I only want to make her happy," he said, "I think I love her,"
Amber's eyes lit up. Oh, vomit, I thought to myself as they kissed passionately. I would never have that feeling of infactuation and I was glad.
