I Will Fall For You.
Past Feelings Lead To New Feelings.
As I walked to him his eyes met mine. He pried off the blonde who looked very upset.
"Ailia?" His bloodshot eyes darted to me
"What the fuck are you doing? You realize that people have been fucking loosing their minds worrying about you. What the hell is going on with you Josh?!" I yelled to him, I felt Niall grip my waist.
"Oh fuck off Ailia.."
Niall cut him off. "Hey, watch the way your talking to her" Niall said stronger than Josh's tone
"Oh thats nice, Ailia you got your new popstar boyfriend to back you up. I bet he doesn't even know that half of you" Josh spat slurring his words.
I felt Niall's grip on my waist tighten. I whispered to Niall "It's alright, he's harmless. He's just drunk. He's my best friend from home. Do you mind giving us a second?" Niall Nodded eyeing Josh.
"Alright Josh I don't know whats been going on but get your shit together, come talk to me then" I walked away but I heard Josh yell to me
"I don't need to get my shit together, when your walking away from me again."
I stopped in my tracks. "What the hell are you talking about?!"
"You know exactly the shit that has been going on. I know why you chose London, to get away from me. Ailia, I'm here now again and your running off again." Josh seemed a bit more put together.
"We'll talk more about this when your not drunk Josh." I walked away not looking back.
I walk up to Niall and whisper in his ear "Niall, I have to get out of here"
He nodded "Sure, my place?"
"Yes please. I'm going to go tell Annabelle"
"I think she's all set" Niall pointed to Harry and Annabelle who were flirting crazily and dancing together. I laughed and we left for his place.
We walked into his house hand in hand. In the moment I just wanted him, all of him. He shut the door and I grabbed him and kissed him with all I had. It took him a few seconds to react but he eventually came up to speed with me. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He stumbled his way to the couch. He laid me down not breaking the kiss.
Niall pulled away and looked into my eyes. He caressed his hand over my jawline, rubbing his thumb over my bottom lip. I gently kissed his hand. He entwined his fingers with mine.
"Ailia" He whispered to me
"Niall" I whispered back smiling at him
"Who's Josh babe?"
I sighed at the question "Love, its complicated." I kissed him once more
Our faces were centimeters apart. "Ailia tell me, it's alright"
I looked into his eyes. Why was I hiding Josh from him. Niall was so innocent, I can't bundle everything up and leave out what will hurt.
"Well, we've been best friends since we were in dippers. We did everything together, he was one of the most important people in the world to me. Then my mom died and he never left my side. He would stay the night and just hold me while I cried. It was a time where Nolan and I were fine, but he knew that Josh was the only one who could help me through it. Eventually things got easier and I wasn't Josh's responsibility any more. We got very distant, we didn't talk anymore. It's like even though my mom was the one who really died, I lost him too." I few tears escaped me eyes.
Niall wiped the tears one by one, kissing my cheeks. "It's alight princess, you can go on" He whispered.
I sniffled and continued. "Nolan was there for me though, so it wasn't that bad. We got a lot closer then, it was then where I really fell in love with him. Then I got hurt and it was so painful, physically and emotionally. No understood, not Nolan, not Josh, not even Annabelle. It was like I was completely on my own. I had to use crutches for six months, then even after that I had to wear this fucking brace. The whole injury erected me relationship with Nolan so we broke up for a little while. I was so angry I didn't understand why all this had to happen, why I kept loosing the people that meant the most to me, but loosing Josh hit me the worst. I was lost and I reached a point, where I couldn't control my emotions from all the pain killers, I had no one to turn too."
I looked in his eyes, knowing what I was going to say would change his view on me.
"Niall, I OD on my pain killers. I was found unresponsive by Josh. He came to my house to talk to me, he said he was going to apologies for the way things went gone. But instead he same to see me barely breathing and not moving. He call the ambulance and saved my life. Ten minutes that all it would have taken until I died."
I looked to see Niall's eyes filling with water, I hugged him. He whispered. "Ailia, I had no idea. I'm so so sorry" Niall combed his fingers through my hair.
"It's all right babe, I'm okay now. I didn't try to kill myself, the doctors said I was prescribed a pain killer with a side affect of suicidal thoughts, it wasn't my fault"
Niall nodded "Thank god he saved you Ailia, I owe him everything I've got." He pulled away from me. "Babe how did things go wrong with you two"
"Josh stayed with me, he was afraid of what it would be like when I was left alone. He blamed himself, I watch him beat himself up inside for months. I felt horrible for the way I made him feel. That night, Nolan came and he was so scared he lost me, he told me he loved me and that he was sorry, and he needed me back. I was so in love with him, I couldn't say no. Nolan was there for me too. Soon Josh didn't want to be around Nolan and I didn't understand. Josh really left after that, he just distanced himself. He never wanted to talk about Nolan, didn't want to be with the tow of us. Since at the time I thought Nolan was my word, I barely saw Josh and I don't blame him for that looking back at it now. Then big shocker, before prom I waked in on Nolan and some girl, doing whatever. I was hurt, but I knew. I didn't tell a soul, not even Nolan that I knew that it had been going on. I just didn't want to loose him. He begged for forgiveness saying it was a one time thing, but it wasn't and I knew. I guess you could say I was already over it the second I saw them together. I told Josh and he was so angry. He hated Nolan and he was going to let him know it. The night of prom, Josh walked up to him and beat the shit out of him. He told Nolan that he was scum and that he had the best and he was never going to find someone better then me." I paused remembering it.
"He was in love with you, wasn't he?" Niall had finally pieced it together
I smiled at him "Yeah, I realized then and there that I was in love with him. But I didn't say anything. He didn't say anything. That was until after graduation. I'm guessing with the confidence boost from the sight alcohol we both had, he managed to ask me to the boat house. He let everything out there. He told me every detail over the past few years why he was in love with him. He told me he was sorry, that he couldn't help it" I paused as a few tear escaped once more "I told him I loved him, and we kissed. We finally kissed and I'll spare you the details but we eventually left and went back to the party, then we went home. I went home thinking that this whole night was magical and that I had finally found someone who would be there no matter what. That morning I woke up to a text from Josh. A fucking text. He said that last night was a mistake, that he was drunk, that it shouldn't have happened and he was sorry. I was pissed to say the least. I felt used. I told Annabelle and she was pissed too. I haven't talked to him since then. At this point I've had time, and I don't have feelings for him what-so-ever. So you don't need to worry babe" I kissed him
"I'm glad you told me" He whispered
"I hope it doesn't make things different" I was a bit nervous that he wouldn't want to be with me after all this drama I have been though
"No. Ailia, I'm not going anywhere."
"Good" I kissed him.
I fell asleep that night in his arms, not wanting to be anywhere else. I loved Niall. Talking to him made me realize it. I'm in love with Niall. And I'm so happy. He's my everything.
