Staying Strong (One Direction, Niall Horan) *EDITING*

Chapter Thirteen

Liam's P.O.V 

I woke up drooling. "Gross." I said wipping off the saliva trial down my cheek. It was nearly 40 degrees out, and Harry still wasn't home. I ringed his cell. "Harry here." Harry finally answered his cell. "Oh thank god you're okay! Come home, a storms supposed to come soon!" I demanded. "Okay, but Niall wants to make a stop somewhere." "You found him!?" I yelled excitedly, doing a little dance. "Hey Liam." Niall greeted me. "Hurry up with what you're doing! I'm going to order Nando's to celebrate." I cheered. "Alrighty, see you soon." Harry said hanging up. I dialed Nando's Chicken. "Hello? Yes. Can I please have one of everything? Yes..Yes it's for Niall..Niall Horan? The one who goes there every friday? The blonde in one direction?Well duh, that's the one and only. Okay..Alright. Bye." I sighed and threw my phone on the couch. Not even the Nando's manager knew who Niall was. I sighed in frustration. After twenty minutes of thinking the door bell was rang serveral times. "Coming!" I swung the door open ready to pay the empolyee. "Here's your one of everything." He gave me four huge bags. "Thanks." I gave him the money. Right when I was about to close the door, he said "Wait..there's one more bag." I grabbed it from him and thanked him again. I took everything out and placed it in the middle of the table, ready to be grabbed and munched on. I took a picture of it and tweeted it. 'Ready to have a nice @Nando's Chicken feast with @Harry_Styles and Niall yumm! (: x' I only wrote Niall, nope not @NiallHoranOfficial, remember I got rid of that for him? I felt my heart drop. "Li-Liam.. I..don't love you like Harry loves you." Went through my head, his voice cracking, his watery eyes, the pain I felt. I huffed and texted Louis. 'Hey Louissss, are you coming to eat with us? Or you staying with El? Is she better? Oh, and a storm is coming so, if you're not coming to eat with us, hurry up and pick some clothes up.' Not even a minute passed and Louis texted me back saying, 'Nah, it's alright. I'm staying with El. She has a high fever so I called over a doctor.  I'll be right over to pick some clothes up. See you soon.x'  I poured some wine into three cups and put down three dishes along with three forks and two spoons. I lit two candles that were placed in the middle of the table. Louis came in as I sat down in my spot. "Way to lock the door." Louis said going up to his room. He came down with a plastic bag full with random clothing. He grabbed a piece of chicken and kissed my cheek. "Night! Thanks for the chicken!" He then slammed the door close. "Well then. Night." I said puffing my cheeks. I checked the time again. "9 O'Clock." I sighed and started to serve all the plates with the same amount of food. I then remembered the notebook. I ran up to my room and grabbed the note book off my guitar and placed it back into Niall's room. 

I heard the door open once again. I jogged down stairs to find Harry and Niall holding hands. I coughed and took a quick glance at their hands. They both blushed and aparted. "Hey." Niall said walking over to me. I wrapped my arms around his neck. Niall stuffed his face into my shoulder and  held my waist. "I'm sorry." Niall muttered. "What about?" I asked in a whisper. "About everything." He then let go. Harry took a seat and started to eat. "Hey!Don't eat without us!" Niall protested. "Sorry, can't hear you over my chewing." Harry said as he munched on some chicken. Harry went through his phone. "You mentioned me in a tweet." He clicked on it. "How come you didn't tag Niall?You just said Niall.." Harry questioned. I started to eat and ignored the question. "What did you guys do that took forever?" Niall smiled and lifted up his sleeve. He had inked his pale skin. On his wrist he got in small prints, 'strong'. and under that was a small butterfly. "I like it." Harry said with a mouth full. "Swallow then speak." I said drinking the wine. I flinched at the taste. "What's the butterfly ..represent?" I asked cleaning my mouth with the napkin. It looked like something a kid would draw. I knew what it meant, but I wanted to see what he would say. "Oh. Well Kat, my rehab friend, told me whenever I feel down I should draw or allow someone else to draw a butterfly on me." He then swallowed and continued.

"And name/dedicate it after someone that I love, and if I harm myself in anyway, it'll end up dying. So it'll basically kill Harry." He said . He then went wide eyed. "I mean it'll kill the person I dedicated it to." He took a sip of wine. "Who drew it..?" I asked still kind of shocked he said Harry. "I did." Harry stated cleaning his dish. "Oh." I excused myself and went to the restroom. I looked into the mirror. "You are worth living. You are not doing that again. No. It won't help at all. I'm okay. Everything's okay. Nothing's wrong. Be positive. Be strong." I said to myself remembering what Niall said in his journal. I walked out of the restroom to find Niall and Harry pecking each others lips, teasingly. I cleared my throat and washed my dish. As I finished I looked at both at them. "I'm glad you're both happy. I should move on now." I smiled with bits of tears in my eyes. I started to walk away, then I stopped and said "Oh.. and Niall." I lifted up my sleeve exposing a small butterfly. "I dedicated it to you..I promise I won't kill you." Niall's eyes were in shock, so were Harry's. I then left and sat on my bed thinking. Maybe I was right, it's time to move on.

Niall's P.O.V 

If only both of them knew how much preasure they're putting me in. Harry hurt me..but so did Liam. I  love Harry.. but Harry loves..or loved Liam.. and Liam loves me. Liam helps me alot.. so does Harry. I'm falling for Liam and Harry. But.. I just don't know. I don't want to hurt anyone. I want them to be happy. Why is love so complicated? I didn't have to worry about love before. I mean isn't it enough with the hate to handle and insecurities. I sighed and got up from the couch. "Where you going..?" Harry asked as I walked to the trash can. "I need to throw something away." He nodded and turned back to the television. I grabbed the razors that were in my pocket and threw them away. Never again.. I walked over to Harry and started pecking his neck. Harry grinned and turned off the television. I honestly needed to get my mind off things. Harry hovered over me and kissed me roughly. I let out a silent moan. I licked the bottom of his lip begging to entrance. He allowed me in and we had some fun with that. "My..room." Harry said picking me. He threw me onto his bed. He stripped his clothes off, and I did the same. We both were gentle, not going to far. I've been waiting so long to do this to Harry. So long. We left tiny purple love bites on our necks. We both cuddled after we finished snogging.. and doing some other fun things. "I love you Niall." I froze not knowing what to say. I wasn't sure if I should say it back..If I could.I pretended to fall asleep and stayed silent. I love you Liam? I love you Harry? ..
