Gone Niall Horan

Ch 24

Kats POV

It's been a whole year. A year since I've seen them. A year since the best relationship of my life. A year since I was truly happy.

I'm not truly happy now honestly. It's hard living like this. A job that pays enough, but only barely. Feeding myself and my dog gets hard with all the bills and the rent. Sometimes I don't eat so Zoe can.

Niall and I haven't talked since last time we saw each other. Liam and Louis don't really talk to me anymore. Harry calls me every day and Zayn texts me every other day. Elexis and I text sometimes. Her and Zayn are married now and have 2 kids. First named Kasey. And the other named Dylan. I've never met them.. It's sad.

I don't know honestly, but I think Harry broke up with his girl awhile back. They were doing great, but one day when Harry called he sounded upset and he didn't even mention her name. Hasn't since that day.

I've lost weight. I'm only 115 and I'm 20 years old. I don't think that's good, but I can't help it. I usually can't eat. If I do, Zoe won't get food.

My job cut my pay down a lot since I first started working. I don't even know why. And it pisses me off.

But I've been saving up, so for awhile I'll be able to eat...finally.

Suddenly, my phone started ringing. Harry!

"Hello?" I answered.

"Kat! So good to hear your voice again! So guess what!"

"Hmm?" I smiled.

"I'm coming to visit! Tomorrow! Okay?" Harry said.

"Oh! Wow! Yeah sure! That sounds lovely!" I said.

"But I need a place to stay...-"

"With me." I interrupted.

"Oh thank you Kat! I miss you so much! I can't wait to see you! But I've gotta go pack now! I'll see you tomorrow." He said.

"Okay Harry! Bye."

I hung up the phone and walked into my room, getting my cash. Time for shopping!

I got to the store and bough dog food that would last awhile, and some food I could eat, also stuff Harry likes. I bought drinks and decided that was enough. What more do I need?

I paid for everything and got in my car. Yes. My car. I can finally drive!

I drove back and unlocked my door, walking in and dropping everything. It was all so heavy and I had no help.

After I put everything away, it was 11 at night. Might as well just get some sleep, eh?

I climbed in bed and got my phone out, scrolling through my contacts. My finger hovered over Nialls..I'm not over him honestly. I still love him...

I clicked on his contact and decided to send him a message.....maybe.

"Hey Nialler! It's Kat! Just checking in, ya know? Haha well I miss you! How's things been?" I typed. But I deleted it after... I can't send anything to him.... I'm supposed to be over him.

I guess I've never gotten over him yet. I still love him. I haven't had anything to even get my mind off of him. I haven't met anyone, I have barely made friends. I usually just sit home and think about whatever comes to mind. And Nialls always on my mind. Always. I sometimes cry at night knowing I let him go. And I'll probably never see him again.. It hurts. Knowing it's my fault that we aren't together. Knowing that I could've still been with him, but I chose not to. Yeah he cheated on me....but everyone deserves chances in life. Right? And I love him...just...too much.

Tears filled my eyes and I closed them...I need sleep..

I woke up hours later. Now it's 10 am... Already? Damn. Time flies.

I got up and got into the shower, washing my hair and body. I got dressed in something comfortable. I have nothing to do today except see Harry. Not like I have to dress up.

I put my hair in a messy bun, and put some mascara and eyeliner on. That's all I really need. Nothing fancy. But still cute.

I fed Zoe and ate an apple. I watched Zoe eat away.. She's so cute but she acts like she's starving. She eats at least 3-4 times a day. And that's enough for dogs. She's adorable and all but she can also be quite annoying. Just like any other dog.

*knock knock* I heard from my door.

Harry!

I ran to the door and looked at the handle. My hand was shaking as I reached for it. I turned it and right when I saw Harry, I jumped in his arms. He wrapped his arms around me and spun me around. Tears instantly filled my eyes as memories of all the other came to mind. He set me down and looked at me.

"Kat..I've missed you so much." He said.

"I've missed you too Harry." I smiled.

"Come on, come inside."

Zoe started barking at Harry but she ended up licking him constantly. After awhile, she quit and did her own stuff.

"So tell me Harry. How's everything been?" I asked.

"Good really. Everyone misses you though, but we're all doing fine. Well....all but one." He said.

"What do you mean?" I asked in a confused voice.

"Niall. He's a lot quieter now. And he gets angry easily. But he's been seeing someone else lately so he's doing better." Harry said. I cringed at that... My heart felt empty. And tears came back to my eyes.

"Well, that's good...I guess." I said.

"Are you.. Jealous?" Harry smirked.

"No! What?! No!! No no. I let him go.. It's my fault we aren't together. Why would I b-be jealous?"

"Aww Kat.. It's okay. Don't worry. You just...you have to move on." Harry said, giving me a hug.

"I know Harry I'm just.... I don't know..."

I looked up in his eyes. Such a beautiful emerald green... But I can't get lost in them like I do Nialls..

Harry put his hand on my cheek and started to lean down... no no no...no I can't do this n-

But he kissed me. And I? I kissed him back. But why?

His tongue slid on my bottom lip. Okay Kat pull away. Pull away!

But no. I let him in. And I fucking kissed back! Idiot!

He pulled away, only to kiss my neck.

"Harry...Harry stop." I whispered. But he continued.

"Harry please stop." I said more sternly now. He pulled away and gave me a confused look.

"Harry I can't. I still love Niall."

"He has a girlfriend. Kat you have to move on. And I like you... And I can tell you like me."

"I do Harry. I do like you. But I love Niall. And I just can't."

"Kat please..."

"Harry I...I can't. I'm sorry."

"Just for tonight...be mine." He pleaded.

"Harry I-" but I was cut off by his kiss. And of course......I kissed back..

"Be mine tonight Kat." He whispered in my ear and kissed below it.

I hesitated. But I looked up at him.

"Fine Harry. Tonight. I'm yours." I said, crashing my lips to him. He was definitely surprised, but he kissed back.

This felt so wrong....but just a bit of it felt right.
