Ruby's P.O.V.
Niall was going to kiss me and I couldn't kiss him. Sure, I wanted to. I really wanted to, but we can't. If I'm caught, what would the paps say? What would Mom say? Dad would freak out and so would my brothers. . . I would be in big trouble. We just met a few hours ago and I really wanted to kiss him, but I'm restraining myself. I'm going to stand right here even if I really want to be right by Niall. I will resist. I am a determined strong girl who at the moment is trying to think what just happened. As the images replayed in my mind, I couldn't help but wonder what Niall thought of me at the moment. I only looked out at London. It would be amazing to not be alone for once, but I was a good girl and I do care what other people think. If I kiss Niall, the world finds out I exist and now the world will want to find out all of my buisiness. It's so annoying.
I thought of my parents and what they would say if they found out on the news that Niall and I kissed. They wouldn't ever let me go anywhere without my brothers. This was supposed to be an audition and vacation. I was never supposed to meet Niall Horan.
This that coffee shop's fault. All of it. If I wouldn't have been there nothing would have happened. I wouldn't have met Niall and I wouldn't be in this situation now. Ugh. I felt the wind breeze through my hair. I shivered a little. The sensation of being alone and feeling a chilly breeze was satisfied as I felt a fabric cover my shoulders. I felt his presence. I knew it was Niall. I only looked down. This felt safe but I had some discomfort seeing that this was the man that so many woman adored world wide. I only looked away. I could feel his eyes intently staring at me.
"Niall, don't do that. Take your jacket back. Please. Don't do this. Go ahead take it off. " I said as I began taking the jacket off.
Niall immediately stopped me. He turned me to face him. I only looked at his feet. Niall's fingers touched my chin. I trembled at just feeling his touch.
"Niall stop." I said regretfully moving my head away from his fingers.
I turned around avoiding his gaze, his face, his everything, "Niall I appreciate everything you've done for me, but I have to go. I shouldn't be here. I'll buy you a new jacket and a shirt. I owe you."
I turned to leave but Niall stopped me, grabbing my shoulder. He tried to hug me, but I pushed back and just gave him my back.
"Niall why won't you leave me alone? I'm not special, I'm no prize and I'm not a rich supermodel. . . I'm none of those. I'm just me, why can't you leave me alone and just let me go so I can leave? Forget about me." I said my lip quivering.
I felt strong arms hug me. It felt reassuring. I tensed up. I felt his warm breath hit my neck giving me goosebumps. His arms wrapped around my shoulders and then my arms. Why is he doing this? I mean yes, I like him and yes I want to kiss him, but we can't. Society and the world won't let us.
Niall whispered in my ear, "Please don't leave. Ruby please. Stay. I don't want to be alone again."
I sighed, "Niall you won't be alone, you have the boys. You have everything. You are something Niall. I'm not."
Niall put his chin on my shoulder, "You aren't. You made me feel alive. You make me feel like I'm normal. You see me as a regular man, a person who needs someone to talk to. The boys will always be there but I want to find someone on my own, not because I feel guilty the boys put in so much effort to get me a date and hook me up with them. That where I found you. I didn't feel like I had to impress you or anything you were friendly and easy to talk to making me feel like I had a friend again. Its that you make me smile, to me you are special and you are something. Please stay. Stay with me."
I sighed and took a deep breath as I laid my head back on his chest. I felt reassurance and I felt safe. I gave in again. This is why I give in to peer pressure, every time. I sighed, patience. Keep calm and stay mellow.
"Ok Niall. I'll stay." I said quietly, breaking the awkward silence that was in the atmosphere.
Niall immediately faced me smiling that big smile of his. That flashy smile that you see in the papers and in the news except this time it felt genuine and real. I furrowed my brow at him and then gave him a tiny smile. His whole face brightened up, sunshine just shining right through him and around him. You could say he's a little ray of sunshine. You couldn't help but smile at him even though I tried to keep a straight face.
"I'm sorry I tried to kiss you. I just. . .I was tired of being alone. Seeing everyone else with their dates and me being alone. I was tired of it, I was tired of getting hooked up with someone I didn't know or that I wasn't interested in. Sure, they were pretty but it just didn't click for me or for them. I don't want to be mean or anything but I want to try to find that special person myself. I know me and well I want that special person to know me for me, not for the Irish pop star and member of One Direction. I just wanted to know how it felt to be loved and needed again. I'm sorry about the kiss. I- I." I hushed Niall putting my finger on his lips, his soft lips.
I felt uncomfortable but all he wanted was not be lonely and to feel loved. Harry, Liam, Louis, and Zayn seem to all have dates and girlfriends. Poor Niall was the only one that didn't. He doesn't need to be lonely at this moment in time, he just needs a friend. That's the right thing to do, be a friend. If I was him I would want him to stay and be a friend. I sighed, even a popstar can get lonely at times. Missing your friends, family, and special people in your life can make it pretty lonely. . . I only looked up at the stars and I found that Niall was staring at me. His blue eyes intently watching my every move. Why would such deep blue eyes marvel at something like me?
"What?" I said calmly as I saw him turn towards the direction of Big Ben.
"Nothing." Niall shrugged it off.
"Sure. I think you should just say what your thinking it makes this so much easier." I said almost immediately as my eyes widened at me and my big mouth at its best.
Niall smirked, "Yes, sassy pants."
I glared at him, getting a chuckle from him.
"Why do you stare at me like that?" I suddenly asked without looking at him, I dare myself not to.
Niall looked at the stars, "Because it reminded me of how when I was younger me and brother would look at the stars and try to count them. Greg would always win. Mom told me the every person has a star up there. Every person on this planet is capable of doing wonders and making this a better world. Every person is capable of finding true love and every person is capable of reaching for the stars and following their dreams. Do you believe in true love?"
I felt my cheeks heat up at the thought of it, "Well. . .its possible but I think love is when you get to know that person that brightens your day and knows you well. They see past your imperfections and past your looks and mistakes. I think that special person understands you and tries to do the best to make both of you happy. They account for you both and well they would always think of each other. Nothing could separate them. Nothing, is just love at its best. No one interferes its just you and that person. That person makes you smile and helps you when you cry. That person is always there, calling in the morning just to say hi or good morning and then in the night just before you go to sleep he calls and says good night always making you smile. They would share things in common with you and also share differences because no one is the same exact copy of another person. They make you feel like your the only person in the world to feel the way they do when they are around you. . ."
I stopped my rambling as I looked at Niall smirking smugly at me. I only blinked and just crossed my arms. Basically I shut myself up. I don't know anything about love, but if I were to believe it exists I'd hope it be like that.
I corrected myself, "I mean, that's how I think of it. Its my opinion, other people think otherwise."
Niall chuckled, "You know more than you make it seem. You have no experience and yet you talk about it that way. Its funny."
I rolled my eyes, "I guess you have experience in dating so enlighten me how its worked out for you."
I covered my mouth again,"Sorry."
I had to get a grip. Come on man, how am I supposed to trust my mouth with anyone?!? Stupid mouth.
Niall's P.O.V.
As she began rambling about what she thought love was, I found her to be extremely adorable and her sense is logical.
"So basically,that person would be there for the other person no matter what and for all their needs. They stick together no matter what, like a best friend." I blurted.
She looked at me shocked. I blushed looking at my feet. I looked at her face again as she gave me a smirk. She looked great in my jacket. She looked great in my shirt. I wonder what. . .no! Stop right there!!! Don't go there. . .don't you dare go there Niall!
I heard her speak, "Yup. That person is their hero. It would be amazing to meet that person in your lifetime. That's once in a lifetime, an experience that changes your life forever. Anyways, why do you ask?"
I shuttered, "I have a problem. Well my friend in Ireland has a problem. I sorta need advice."
"Ok? Uh, I can see if I can help, but I'm not promising anything." She questioned in a half hopeful and half nervous tone.
I gulped, should I tell her the truth or what. Should I make something up? I want to tell her how I feel but I don't want to lose her as a friend either. What to do!?!?!? I don't know what to do!!! Ok, when in doubt just wing it. This is gonna either be a miracle and super amazing or awkward and a crash landing. Lets hope its the first option.
"So my friend in Ireland, he's my childhood friend and well he needs advice on if he should tell this girl he likes that he likes her. The problem is they met in an airport and well he had only known her for a week, but he doesn't know when she'll leave and go back home. He feels like he's a peace when she's there beside him. He feels like he never has. He has never felt this way and is having trouble to cope with these growing feelings. He doesn't know how long she will be there and he doesn't know if he will ever see her again. He doesn't know if she feels the same way and he doesn't know if she will accept these feelings towards her. What would you do if didn't know how much time you had with the one person that makes you feel like you never have before, like you brand new and improved? Would you confess your feelings or keep it a secret?" I said concluding my "testimonial problem".
Ruby only seemed to be in deep thought. She's actually going to try to give me "advice" right now, I really want to kiss her right now, I really do. Contain yourself Niall!!! Take it slow. Stay calm. Don't give in. I repeat don't give in!
"Well if he wants to be completely honest with her and he doesn't know if he will see her again then I guess he could tell her. He should, that is if she feels the same. If he doesn't know then maybe wing it. I don't really know, I'm not very good with hypothetical situations or anything. I guess that wasn't help at all, was it?" Ruby said looking at her feet sticking her hands in her dress pockets.
"Thanks I'll tell him what you said. I think he should confess. I mean you never know." I said acting like this was the actual situation when really its me and her.
She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and blew the bangs out of her hair. I'm giving in, I repeat I'm giving in. I'm falling!!! I falling hopelessly for her. She makes my heartbeat quicken at the rate of being struck by lightning. I feel her sparks running through every part of my body, I feel like I'm addicted to the feeling. My heart beat speeding, rising every time she smiles or smirks or touches me. Her touch is captivating yet makes me selfish as I only want her for myself. Only for myself.
"Your welcome." She said naturally.
Ok, I heard her "advice" and well I still don't know what to do. I really want to tell her but . . .oh screw this. . . A breeze swished by making Ruby's hair get in her face. I saw her squeeze her eyes shut as all her hair messily ran in front her beautiful face, as they covered those beautiful eyes I'm addicted to and hitched with a sensation of wanting more and that its never enough to just see her.
"Ugh! " She groaned in frustration.
I tried containing my giggles but I couldn't, this was priceless.
"Stand back." She said as he moved her really fast and flung her hair back, but it wasn't really that effective.
"Here let me help." I said half laughing.
"Its not funny." She said.
I began clearing her face from her soft hair. I put the loose strands behind her ear. Her eyes were still closed. I kissed her nose, getting a scrunched reply from Ruby. I put my hand on her cheek making her eyes immediately open. Those big brown eyes I enjoy to stare at, the ones I want to see every morning staring back at me. We locked eyes almost instantly with no effort. She blushed madly, her cheeks flushing a crimson red and looked away. She looked like she was going to say something.
"What is it?" My mouth said without my permission.
Her expression seemed clouded, her eyes losing that twinkle, " Nothing. It's nothing Niall."
She began to walk away, distancing herself. Again. I'm gonna fix her. If it's the last thing I do. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I grabbed her wrist and turned her around with force. I have fallen quite hard for her and now I can't bear to let her go, not anymore.
"Niall! I said it was nothing. Let me go! Ever heard of space." Ruby said her arms on my chest as I trapped her in my arms.
"Why do you say that about yourself Ruby? I want to know why." I said straightforward in all seriousness.
"That's none of your business, Niall. Why do you care?" she sassily replied.
That's it. She wants to know why I care. Well here it is.
"You wanna know why I care? Do you really wanna know Ruby? I care enough to try to help you, I care because I know you can be amazing. You are amazing. Why can't you let me in? Why can't you let me help you?" I shot back.
She flusterly replied, "Because you're someone who once you get what you what, leaves that person for a good for nothing reason leaving them broken and alone?!!?!"
I looked at her in shock, "You're lonely. They left you. Who left you?"
She didn't say anything. I kept her in my arms.
"Hey, look at me. I'm not them Ruby. I'm not. I know what it's like. Please just let me in." I said locking eyes with her.
"Why do you care? What is it that matters so much about me?" She said with disbelief.
She is making this hard. Ok, that's it. This was the last straw. That is it. . . .
"This is why." I said.
Here goes nothing. I stroked her cheek tenderly and ever so gingerly. I looked at her and then I did it. I pressed my lips on hers. The kiss was soft, her lips are the best I have ever kissed. I kissed her. I couldn't believe it. I melted in the kiss. I tasted the mint and smile in the kiss. I kissed her for 5 seconds and then let her go. Her eyes widened.
"I like you Ruby. I really do, that's why I care. I don't know if I'll ever see you again so I needed to tell you. I like you a lot and I promise that when you need someone I'll be here." I said releaved.
A blush crept on her cheeks; she softly said, "I like you too. Was your friend in Ireland, actually you?"
I blushed, "Yeah, it was. When can I see you again?"
I immediately got to the point making her blush again, I laughed at her response. She hit my shoulder.
"Ow." I said rubbing the spot.
"That's what you get for not telling me truth." She said in her sassy tone.
I smirked, "You want honesty, I'll give you honesty."
I took on Harry's way of being well. . .aggressive. I pulled her close and smirked. As I was just about to kiss her I heard a camera flash. Uh oh, paps. . .
