The envelope

It's the beginning of the New Year, not as a school year, but a 365-day year. I hurry to get ready again and join Niall after receiving his message that he was waiting for me at the entrance.

"Hi Niall," I say, taking him in my arms.

"Hey Katy, how are you?

- Pretty good and you ?

- Great too. But I wanted to go back to what happened for the new year. I know you don't want to hear about it, but I need to know.

- Niall. We kissed like that. I mean between best friends it happens sometimes. And then we had drunk and I needed your lips at that moment," I confessed.

He stops walking and looks at me in surprise. Then resume a few seconds later the way to high school.

"By the way, I didn't give you your Christmas present," Niall told me as we sit on the bench waiting for the rest of the group.

"No, you shouldn't have done that, I didn't give you anything either.

- Of course you take it, anyway it's not refundable and then it's also your birthday present from last year," then handing me an envelope.

"No, but Niall, we made the promise to not offer anything," I whispered, pushing his hand holding the envelope.

"Katy listen to me. I want you to take this damn envelope, because it will change your life. Finally, I hope with all my heart, because I know that with it, you will make a success. Take it as a new beginning or whatever. Please make me a pleasure Katheryn," he begged me.

"Just to make you happy, but also because you're my best friend," I say taking my present.  

But before I had time to open it, the rest of the group appeared and said hello. The alarm rings.

The day passed very slowly because of the envelope that I couldn't open. On several occasions, I tried to open it, but there was always something or someone to stop me. It's not that I accept the gift of my best friend, but he spent money to give it to me, I don't know how much, but if he did it, it's because he has a reason.

"So still not open?" Niall tells me as I look at the envelope sitting on the bench.

"No, I can't, finally what I mean is that there is always someone or something to prevent me from opening it," I whispered.

"Open it now then, but before follow me."

He suddenly takes my hand and asks me to speed up the pace. I don't ask questions and follow until we arrive in a small park. Thinking I have arrived, I stop, but Niall continues to pull my arm.

"Here we arrived," my best friend announces me in front of a small lake. "You can now open the envelope. Nobody will come to disturb us."

I glance around and see Niall beckoning me to open it. I take a deep breath and open it gently. When I see Lady Gaga writing on it, I throw myself into the arms of my dear best friend.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you Niall. You are the best.

- I'm glad you like it, but you didn't really see what it was. So take a closer look."

I withdraw from his arms and follow his advice to the letter, carefully watching what it is. I quickly realize that there are two concert tickets to go to Lady Gaga. I start crying with joy.

"But you're a big sick Niall James Horan! It must have cost you an arm. You shouldn't have offered me that, you're too kind to me," I confessed.  

"I'm not crazy, I'm just a very caring best friend who thinks about the welfare of his best friend and not money," he told me before kissing my forehead.

"Thanks Niall," snuggling in his arms. "And by the way, it will be you.

- How's that you?" Stepping back.

"You and me, at Lady Gaga's concert.

- What? No. Go with someone other than me who really loves her.

- No, I want to be with someone I love, and it's you.

- Perrie, go with her, she loves her," Niall tried.

"No, I won't go with her or anyone else. If I ask Liam, Zayn will make him sulk, like Perrie with Jade, Harry and Louis, Jesy doesn't really like her and Leigh-Anne neither so it will be with you and nobody else," I announced.

"Unless you change your mind.

- No, I won't change, except if that day, we argued or something bad happened to you and then I won't go anymore so you have better go if not I demolish you. Did you understand me Niall James Horan?" I asked carefully.

"Obviously Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson."

I hate when he calls me by my full name, I have the impression that I did something wrong while that's not the case.

"Can I kiss you?" I asked puzzled.

"In what honor?" He breathed surprised.

"To thank you for allowing me to see my idol," I whispered.

"In this case, you can"

So I kissed my best friend with a chaste and tender kiss of thanks.
