She Will Be Loved
Chapter Three
Aria and Ella began their walk home. They stayed silent until Arias phone started buzzing.
"Who's that?" Asked Ella.
"Uh." It was Niall. "No one important."
"Oh my god. It's a guy!! You've got your guy smile on. And your blushing!!" Ella exclaimed.
Ella grabbed Arias phone and saw who it was.
"I knew it! That's so cute!"
"Shut up Ella.."
Ella just smiled.
Aria read the text.
From: Niall
To: Aria
Hey. So this is Niall. I was wondering if you wanted to hang out some time?
-Niall
ARIAS P.O.V
I read the text in shock. Niall wanted to hang out with me..? Why? That's so weird. Should I? He seemed nice. But I told myself that I shouldn't go down that road again. Maybe I should give him a try. I will.
BACK TO NORMAL VIEW
Aria texted him back.
From: Aria
To: Niall
Hey. Sure, I'd love to hang out.
-Aria
Ella grabbed the phone and read the conversation.
"You said yes!" Ella yelled. "I'm glad your finally letting someone in."
Aria just shrugged awkwardly, Ella had a habit of saying what everyone was thinking and was a very honest person.
"I'm sure everything will be fine." Ella said.
"Let's just eat."
Ella shot her a worried look.
ELLA'S P.O.V
I can't let Aria sink into the stupor like last year. She needs to know there are always going to other people to lean on. Not just him. I think Niall is what she needs. Even if they only become friends they need to talk. Maybe he can the one who saves her. Hopefully he doesn't mind waiting and trying..
I'm going to call Harry. He'll want them together as well.
I called him and he answered.
"Hello." Harry answered.
"Hi Harry. It's Ella. I was thinking about setting up Niall and Aria maybe? I know they're going hang out but I think they should last. What do you think?
In the background I hear a boy with an Irish accent whisper to Harry to agree with me.
"I can hear you Niall!" I laughed.
"No you can't!"
"So we're going to do this?"
"Definitely." Harry replied and hung up.
Well, I thought to myself, lets do this.
"You know Aria, you and Niall would be cute."
"I dunno. I mean I doubt he likes me. I mean, look at me." Aria said sadly.
"Bullshit. He loves you. I can see it in his eyes and I can see that you like him as well!"
"Shut up!" Aria blushed.
"Oh my god!!! You do like him!!!!"
"I don't know! It's just that it's been such a long time.."
"Exactly. It's been a long time." Ella moved closer to Aria. "You need to move on."
"But then I feel like I'm forgetting him. And what if I just get hurt again? I don't want that."
"Nialls not going to hurt you. And moving on isn't forgetting. It's acknowledging tht past and engaging in the future. You can't stay there forever."
"But.. What if I do forget?" Aria asked, beginning to cry.
Ella pulled her into a hug. "You won't. You won't ever forget."
"Who's that?" Asked Ella.
"Uh." It was Niall. "No one important."
"Oh my god. It's a guy!! You've got your guy smile on. And your blushing!!" Ella exclaimed.
Ella grabbed Arias phone and saw who it was.
