Strictly you.

Penny sat curled in the overstuffed chair that was pointed at the window, she looked out at the lights twinkling in the night as smooth melodic beats flew from the speaker of her cell phone, “I know it’s over” by the smith was only putting nails in her coffin. “How long has been unfaithful? Is he even unfaithful?” she asked herself every few moments, followed by long gulps from the wine bottle in her hand.
Her attention was brought back to reality when she noticed the music had stopped. “Damn.” She said as she looked down at her dead phone and her empty wine bottle.
She stood and walked towards the mini bar, there was some whisky –might as well. She grabbed the bottle and walked over to the counter, grabbing a glass and attempting to place ice inside.
“Probably need ice…” She slurred to herself before grabbing the robe that was hanging over the bed. She pulled it on and grabbed the ice bucket before walking out of her room. Her gaze set intently on the ice vendor at the end of the hall. She was close enough when the door nearest the machine opened, out popped blonde locks and similar attire.
“Penny.” Niall said solemnly, holding his own ice bucket and turning to walk in front of her.
“Rude.” She said drunkenly, looking at him standing in the white fluffy robe and a pair of socks with cheeseburgers on them.
“Oh, sorry. You can go first.” He said kindly, moving back to let her go. He had on a pair of thick black rimmed glasses and he looked incredibly successful. What is it about glasses that makes a girl lose her shit?
“It’s okay…” She said slowly, placing her bucket under the slot and pressing the release button.
“Does Harry fuck around on me?” She finally asked, knowing this was the last thing she should be talking about with Niall. He arched a brow and blinked at me.
How would he even know? Penny decided after he didn’t respond.
“He has.” He said finally, Penny felt her heart sink.
“When?” She asked, turning to look at him.
“At least once a tour…” He said looking down at the ground.
“Why didn’t you tell me?!”
“I knew you’d be mad and I thought you’d just think I was telling you to try and get you away from Harry and that would just drive you closer to him and I couldn’t do that. You were happy not knowing.” He said raising his voice slightly.
Penny scoffed; feeling the tears that were about to escape, but her foot was assaulted by a dozen ice cubes quickly falling on them.
“Shit.” She said as she pressed the button to turn it off and grabbed the bucket.
Niall reached for her, but missed and watched her began briskly walking down the hall.
“Please, Penny. You know I never told you because I love you too much.” He wasn’t exactly being discreet, this was just great.
When Penny reached her door, she began searching her pocket for the room key that she had sadly left on the table inside the locked room. She shook her head, her lips swollen and numb from all the wine. She turned and leaned against the door, letting her back slide down as she clutched her hair in her hands and let the tears flow freely.
Niall took a knee as soon as she’d hit the ground, his hand reaching out to hers.
“I always fuck up.” She said, feeling a surplus of self-pity.
“No, I fucked up. I should have told you to begin with. I should have never gone behind anyones back and I should have fought for you harder, I fucked up babe.” He said as his fingers finally connected with her chin, lifting her face to look at him.
“I’m locked out.” She said with a sigh, looking over at the ice bucket that was now toppled over beside her.
“Come on love. Where is Harry?” He asked as he began to help her stand.
“With that new slut I assume.” She said spitefully, her heart ripping just a bit more as she thought about it. She wasn’t sober enough to see the irony.
“C’mon, my room then. I’ll call someone to get you in.” He said as he led her to his room. It looked just like the one she was in, only there were more food wrappers strewn around. She licked her lips as she plopped on the bed, looking up at the ceiling.
Niall called down and got someone to come upstairs before sitting in the chair. He looked over at Penny, her thighs exposed through the robe and teasing him. He knew he had to be strong though, he couldn’t do this or else he’d maybe lose her for good.
“Penny, I’m going to walk you to your room, do you need anything?” He asked, leaning forward and looking at her. She shook her head, she was more quiet than usual and that was very discerning.
She stood with his help, feeling absolutely devastated. The walk down the hall gave the room attendant enough time to come and unlock the door for her. Niall walked her into the room and got her into bed, tucking her in and placing a delicate kiss against her cheek.
“Get some sleep.” He said as he tucked the blanket around her.
“Niall…” She said softly.
“Yes love?” He asked as he stopped at the door, turning to look at her.
“I love you…”
“And I you…”
