Chapter 6

Alyssa's POV

Demi? When we got closer I realized that "Demi" was the Demi, as in Demi Lovato. When she stood up, they hugged. I felt a little piece of my heart break off, just a little bit, not a big deal. She let go of Niall and turned towards us. "Hey guys!" she said. Everyone said their hellos, she even hugged Eleanor. When she got to me she gave me a big smile. "Hi I'm Demi!" she said and held out her hand. I shook her hand and gave her a faked smile but luckily I was getting good at faked smiles so I hope that it's convincing. "I'm Alyssa!" I said to her. "Oh my gosh! Your hair is so beautiful! I swear! What do you do to it to make it look like that?" she gushed. She was so nice, I see why Niall liked her.

"Oh um... I just brush it." I said. Way to sound cool Alyssa! "That's cool!" she said and gave me one last smile before turning to Niall. "Wanna dance?" she asked him. He nodded and grabbed her by the waist. I felt nauseous.

"Hey I'm going to go to the bathroom." I said. I walked away before they could say anything. I can tell this is going to be a super fun night! I got into the bathroom and hid inside a stall. Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry. She's a wonderful girl.

That's the problem!

Why! You should be happy for Niall

But I want Niall!

You have Joey!

I guess your right

Go out there and try to act like your happy

I guess it can be like a photo shoot?

Perfect! Do that!

I got out of the bathroom and instantly saw Niall and Demi, they looked so happy, I should be happy too right? He leaned in and gave her a quick peck on the lips. That's it. I ran back into the bathroom. Screw this plan! I can't be happy for them. That must sound awful. I felt a bigger piece of my heart brake off. "Your fine!" I mumbled. I quickly pulled out my phone and dialed the number that I had memorized so long ago.

I finished my conversation and walked back into the V.I.P section. "Thank god! I was going to come in after you in a minute!" El said. "Oh. Sorry, don't worry about me. I'm not feeling very good. I'm gonna head home." I said and turned to leave. "Do you need a ride?" Harry asked. "No. Joey's coming to get me. He should be here any minute." I said. I saw everyone stiffen except for Danielle and Perrie, at the mere mention of his name. "Alright...feel better." El said. I nodded and headed towards the door. I was almost there when I bumped into someone at the bar. "Sorry." I said and pushed a piece of hair behind my ear.

I looked up to see Niall. "Oh heeeey Alyssa!" he said. I guess he had a few drinks. "Where's Demi?" I asked. "Bathroooom." he slurred. "Oh...Ok, well...bye." I said and turned to start walking for the door again. "Where ya goin'?" he asked. "Home." I said and then walked out quickly before he could say anything else.

I saw the familiar red jeep and made my way towards the car. "Alyssa! Wait!" I turned to see Niall. I quickly turned back to Joey and hopped in. He quickly pulled away from the club. When we got to his house he stopped and turned towards me. "So...what's wrong? You seemed upset on the phone and it's not like you to leave a party before you have actually partied. Annnnd you didn't even invite me! I'm hurt!" he said and placed his hand on his heart. I chuckled and got out of the car. "I just wasn't in the partying mood!" I said when I got to his side. He slid his arm around my waist and pulled my body closer to his as we ascended the stairs to his flat.

When we got in he turned me towards him and leaned in. He gave me a gentle kiss and then pulled away. "I missed you." he whispered. "I missed you too." I whispered back and then nuzzled my head into the crook of his neck. He stayed like that for a while. He pulled away when his phone vibrated.

"I gotta take this." he said and walked into the other room. I sighed and sat down.
