Everything changes

“Kyl, I can’t. The whole flight I didn’t say anything and when he noticed me I run away to the bathroom. I’m scared he would hate me.” I’m freaking out right now. The plan was talking to him, telling my feelings to him, but what if he’s done with me. I can’t take that. I’m so stupid sometimes.

“Calm down babe, everything would turn out fine. Go talk to him! And call me when you guys talked.” Gosh I love this girl. She always knows what to say to me and cheer me up. “Thanks hun, speak to you later bye.” I hung up the phone and stare at myself through the mirror. Gosh I look terrible, I would say no if I was him uhg.

I grab my purse and with a confident boost I walk out the bathroom. There he was leaning against the wall at the other side of the hall, looking at his phone. Dammit… can he not. He looks perfect, his hair is still in shape as always and those blue eyes never change. I try to walk as fast as I can to avoid him, but my mission failed completely when I hear his footsteps behind me.

“Are you stalking me?” damn that perfect voice, how could I forget that perfect voice with that incredible accent. “Erm.. I knew this was a stupid mistake.” I walk away from him and try to reach the counter were a friendly woman is helping a man. Before I reached the counter I felt a strong hand on my shoulder, and him touching me makes me shiver. That boy has too much power over me, and he doesn’t even know it.

I turn around and try to avoid his gaze, not knowing what to do right now. He grabs my hands and tries to look in my eyes. “What are you doing here?” When our blue eyes meet my heart skips a beat, and he stares right into my soul. “Erm, well… Harry bought me a ticket. I made kind of a mistake. Well not kind of, erm… I made a mistake. I need to fix this.” Still holding my hands, he looks at me like I speak Chinese. “Can we just grab a cup of coffee at starbucks?” He nods and without saying a word to each other we walk to the starbucks.

We ordered our drinks and took a seat at the back of the café. Still not saying a word he just stares at me. Can he please not, he makes me more nervous. “Ok, let me explain.” I take the coffee in my hand and play with the little wrap that the waitress put around for the heat. “you know, the other day you told me something…” He nods at me and I know he is listening to me. “Well… I wasn’t completely honest to you. I do feel something for you. In fact sitting here in front of you kills me. You know, in my previous relationships I always got hurt, and if they didn’t hurt me, I hurt them because I knew it was just a matter of time before they would do it to me.” I take a deep breath and Niall is opening his mouth to say something.

“No, please let me speak first.” I see him thinking about it, and then he nods at me. “I thought you were like all of the other guys. And in the end I was the one who got hurt again. And please understand me, I can’t handle heartbreak. So I thought, why even bother. And saying no was the easiest option.” I took a zip from my coffee, and my hands were shaking because I’m so nervous. Gosh please someone stab me right now! “But?” I didn’t thought he would say something so I wasn’t prepared for him saying anything. “But, now I realise I’m not only hurting myself from taking a distance, but I’m also hurting you. And I wanted to tell you, but Harry told me you were on this plane to Ireland, and you wouldn’t be back before the tour ended. So I also took this flight and… yeah, now I’m here crying my heart out.”

“And I totally…” I couldn’t end my sentence because I felt his soft lips on mine. And when he leans back I feel a bit disappointed because he broke the kiss, but at the same time I felt happier than I ever did in those two days I was at home. “What were you saying?” He sits down on his chair again and looks at me. “Erm… that I totally understand if you don’t wanna see me again. But I thought you needed to know.” I look away from him with a little blush on my cheeks.

“Khloe, you telling me you like me the way I like you, makes me happier than I have ever been.” And again he leans in and when our lips almost touch he gives me one of his cute smiles. He brushes his lips on mine and I feel like he forgave me everything I told him two days ago.

“So, we can start over again?” I look at him nervous and he takes a serious look at his coffee, which he didn’t touch by the way. He stands up and sticks his hand out for me to reach. “Hello, I’m Niall. Nice to meet you.” I have a big smile on my face from ear to ear. “Hello, my name is Khloe. Thank you for listening to me.” He lays his hands on my hips, and I put my arms around his neck. He looked in my eyes and leans in again to give me a full butterfly effect kiss. Damn… this boy makes me crazy.
