Your Pov

I was happy to call it quits after an eventful night. A fun night out was just what I needed after all that I've been through lately.

When I got home I showered and put on fresh silk pjs to get in bed with. I turned on the tv so it can help me sleep. The moment I thought I would nod off to sleep, I hear my phone go off.

Niall texted me a picture of a truffle candy & said it was better than Seattle truffles.

Just when I had a chance to keep him off of my mind here he go popping up again. Sometimes I just don't want to respond back and sometimes I wish that we had ended on bad terms so that he knew not to bother me ever again or not even want any part of my life. Unfortunately that is not our story yet alone when we ended things for the 3rd time I kept my promise I'd be there for him as a friend. It's just that it's hard to get over him.

How can someone be big hearted, a complete gentleman, so smart and talented still cause so much heartache?

I just texted him back that nothing will be better than Seattle truffles. I tried going to sleep because I am really tired. But no. FaceTime noise going off. I could let it go but why do that because he will call me again.

"Hey" I say simply

"Hey, what are ya doing?" He asked

"Home in bed" I answered tiredly

"I saw Kate's story, it looks like you had a fun night" Niall said & I can't help but feel that he's judging me.

"Well it was girls night, so, it was a good time" I said simply,

"I'm glad you are home safely" Niall said.
Ok maybe I'm paranoid and just overthinking but Niall thinks he is slick for FaceTiming me. I don't know if he thinks I lied to him when I texted him and he just FaceTimed me to see if I was telling him the truth. Maybe he was testing me to see if I would answer his FaceTime, maybe he thought I was hooking up with someone and he was trying to take my
no answer as confirmation. Truly I might be reaching but what kind of fool does he take me for and what would that have mattered we are broken up.

"Thanks, I appreciate you for looking out for me" I said kindly but in my mind and heart I meant that sarcastically.

"Ok well I'll let you get some sleep. Goodnight" Niall said

"Goodnight Niall" I responded and I hung up.

It's taking everything in me to fight back these tears. I already gave myself 2 weeks to cry and grieve our relationship ending and I promised myself I will not shed another tear because not all love is lost for him. And it's ok, but now I wonder if I can do this.

As I was contemplating this suddenly
my phone goes off again and it's Niall FaceTiming me again. Truly I don't want to pick up because I really need to think and I need to sleep on somethings.

I decided to go ahead and answer the phone.

"(Your name), I know it's late and I said I'll let you sleep but this couldn't wait. I don't like that it's awkward between us. It's killing me" Niall opens up to say

"Niall...I'm tired" I said honestly

"I know but please talk to me. I just want to know what can I do to-" Niall said and I cut him off

"No Niall you don't get it. I am tired. Truly I am. I am tired of putting on a front with you-" I said and then Niall cut me off

"That's what I am saying. (your name) you have been and always will be -" Niall interrupts me and I then cut him off
