~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I instantly felt extremely guilty. I know it's not my fault, but I still feel so bad.

Anger raged inside me and I pushed the completely wasted boy off me.

"Niall, please wait! I can explain!" I went after him as he stormed off.

I will NEVER forget that look on his face. It literally broke my heart. He looked so hurt and it was because of me.

"You don't have to." He said flatly and walked outside to get some fresh air.

"But Niall, it wasn't my fau-"

"Save it, Julia. I saw what happened." He looked the other direction, staring into the night sky.

We were alone.

"But-"

"Please leave me alone for right now."

I felt... hurt.

Well I guess I deserve this because it's exactly how he feels. But I didn't expect him to be so harsh.

I felt my eyes tear up.

I hate when people are harsh with me. It makes me feel like crap.

What if he doesn't like me anymore?

What if I blew it?

I feel terrible and I probably just ruined any chances of another relationship. Nice job, Julia.

I went back inside as a couple of tears slowly slid down my cheek.

*Niall's P.O.V:*

"Haven't seen you in a while." A familiar voice said as I spun around.

"Hey, nice seein' ya!" I replied to my friend, Tom, that I haven't seen in a couple of months.

We made small talk and caught up on each others lives in the time span we hadn't seen each other.

"So who's the girl you're with? I saw you two before and I didn't want to interrupt." Tom asked.

"Oh, that's Julia." A smile crept onto my mouth.

"Ah, I see the way you look at her."

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't deny it, Horan."

That's the Tom I always knew. He was always so pushy and knew how to tell when I was lying.

"... I really like her..." I said mostly to myself but he nodded.

"It's obvious." He laughed.

"Don't think so." I laughed along. "Alright, I guess I'll get back to Julia. I'll see ya around."

"Definitely."

Tom and I had been talking for a while and I felt bad for leaving Julia. I headed back to where she was before I disappeared.

I scanned through the mobs of people. She can't be that hard to find, she is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

I caught a glimpse of a red dress as I got closer.

I can't believe what I'm seeing.

"Julia? What the hell!" I managed to spit out.

She looked shocked.
