Chapter 20: Giving it a go
FREYA'S P.O.V.
I woke up with the sound of birds chirping and sunlight shining on half of my face. I smiled and stretched, remembering about my dream in which a hot blonde guy with heavenly eyes appeared, I blushed. But when it got me of what happened yesterday, my smile turned into a scowl and I blinked multiple times, trying to forget about him for now, because it was a sunny day today in London. I checked my sides for my phone and my eyes widened when I couldn't find it. I looked around the room and my eyes laid on the screen-broken iPhone which was thrown badly by me last night. My eyes wanted to tear up but my brain told me not to break down again. I got showered and walked downstairs.
"Girl, were you okay last night? I heard a shattering sound after Niall left. What happened?" Taz asked and I looked at Ally who was doing dishes from last night. I looked at the floor again.
"Is Daniel here?" I asked in a low tone.
"Of course I'm here, where else I'd be?" I looked behind to see a grinning Daniel.
"Never mind." I closed my eyes, hoping he doesn't remember what he had said last night.
"Well..." His voice trailed off while he pulled the chair to sit on it. "I remember exactly what happened last night, so don't even ask." He winked at me but thank God Ally spoke for me.
"Daniel, I know you're super smart and a hottie, but you need to stop. Fari has a boyfriend and he's Niall Horan, way better than you." Oh no Ally don't say that. "And yeah, he just messes things up but he's gonna be okay, there are bad and good things about in all. Stop saying she's your girlfriend because she's never wanted to be yours. And even if she says she is, I bet I know deep down she still loves him, so, stop. Please." Wow. What a lecture for Daniel.
Daniel stood up from the table with a cocky smile on his face. "You." He pointed towards me and came near to my face. "Come with me, I want to talk." I shook my head but he laughed.
"There's no point she's going with you." Taz included. Daniel chuckled.
"If she really cares about me, she will come." He pointed a finger and a smug look appeared on his face. I wonder what he wanted to talk about. I must go, this can make things go right. Ally, Taz and Daniel argued about a minute and I decided to jump in.
"Stop. I'm going." I said then looked at him. "Where?" I asked Daniel who just smirked at me.
"Get ready, we're going to a cafe." He left me to get his car keys. Ally and Taz looked at me with an angry face and I shrugged.
"Are you nuts?!" Taz shouted but Ally kept calm and did her dishes.
"I'll explain later." I went to set my hair a bit and ran downstairs to Daniel outside. I jumped in the car and we drove to the cafe. When we got inside there, I ordered a coffee and sat on one of the tables.
"What do you want to talk about?" I asked the boy who smirked at me.
"About us." He said simply.
"Us?!" I whisper-yelled.
"Us. You said it all yesterday. So don't be dumb." He winked at me two times.
I sighed before answering. "No. I didn't say anything like this."
"Yeah?" He rolled his eyes.
"Yeah."
He began to type on his phone and I wondered what he was typing. I missed my phone at that time, more than alot.
"What's this then?" He showed his phone to me and my jaw literally dropped to the phone when I saw the video of me saying those words which I said last night. My eyes widened at the face of Niall who was watching us from the distance.
"Is this....?" I couldn't complete my words and Daniel spoke for me.
"Horan? Yeah, its Horan." Daniel's smug face appeared once again as he snatched his phone from my hands.
"Daniel! You're black-mailing me. It's downright low." I gulped loudly.
"Oh, it doesn't have to be, darling. Just listen to me and dont say anything, okay?" Daniel cupped my face with his hands and looked into my eyes. I could see affection and care for me. Why does he have to do this? Just move on and find another girl! I nodded and waitress brought our coffee after which Daniel sighed, sounding annoyed.
"Remember when we used to be best friends?" I nodded. "And you used to have crush on me?" I gasped.
"But if you knew then why didn't you approach me?" I whisper-yelled. He shook his head.
"I didn't know at that time, Sarah told me." I recall in my mind for Sarah and got 2 results.
"Sarah? As Sarah Walker?" I asked, making her picture in my head, I shook my head, she couldn't be. I never talked to her about anything beside assignments.
"Sarah, as Sarah West." He said and I was reminded of her. She was one of the good friends of mine. How could she do this? I told her not to tell anyone else. Fucking Rebel.
"Oh" Was all I could say.
"Yeah, but believe me..." Daniel held my hand suddenly and I gasped. "I love you now. We can be together. That Horan guy is messing this up. You belong to me. Not him." He poured out his heart to me; that I felt.
"But me and Niall are in a re-" He cut me off.
"Yeah yeah yeah, I know you guys are in a relationship, but that ship is sinking don't you see? Horan is literally cheating on you and you're now getting a bit away from him. He doesn't love you back, he loves Kiarra." He sighed. "Lets just give it a try?" I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.
"Give what, a t-try?" At my question, he raised an eye brow. Like a 'you-don't-understand' face.
"Are you dumb? You know what I mean." I kept my eyebrows furrowed, I clearly understood what he said, but not what he meant. He groaned and thew his head back. Still same, shy Daniel I know. "Lets give it a try, I mean, stay with me for one day, lets see if you'd do this."
Could I do this? Its just for one day. What could go wrong?
"Okay." Without any thinking, I agreed to this thing with Daniel. We laughed and spent our time like we used to, before. When we got home in noon, Taz and Ally's jaw dropped literally to the floor.
"A little time, this much change?" Taz snapped playfully. I giggled and slapped her arm, playfully either.
****
4 days has been passed. Niall hadn't even tried to contact me except a 'how are ye?' , I haven't said anything. I know Niall is desperate for me to talk to him, but I want a little distance. The day Daniel told me to spend a day with him, I did. And to be honest, that was one of the best days of my life. Don't get me wrong, we didn't do anything wrong, just some cuddling, movies, food, laughter, thats all. I also attended school for these four days. Felt like a normal school girl again. No drama, just me and friends. Speaking of, Taz and Ayesha are like a best buddies and they have even started to work at Vogue, their dream world, ofcourse. They've always wanted a job there. Ally, well she had got a boyfriend and because of that boyfriend thingy, she put a fight with Harry but its all sorted out now, they are agreed on being friends, but lets see.
"Do you even know what I'm saying?" Dany, yes, I've used him a nickname, just like before. He snapped me out of my thinking.
"I'm sorry, what?" I asked again. He sighed sharply.
"I told you to get flour, and..." He raised his fingers, reading from the shopping list. "Some cocoa powder, Oyster sauce, and eggs." I ran through the aisles of the supermarket to get the things while Daniel was buying some 'surprise' for me. He gets too cute when he gets positive response. I felt my new phone buzz, some one was calling and I already had eggs, cocoa powder and oyster sauce in my hands, so I reached my hands towards my back pocket, but unfortunately the oyster sauce fell from my hands to some other guy's hand. I looked at the person and I gulped.
Niall.
He looked at me with sparks in his eyes and grinned like a child. Adorable. "Hi."
"Hi." I grabbed the oyster sauce from his massive hands and put it in the basket in my hands.
"So, how are you?" The Irish blondie tried to get my attention but I could do nothing, except keeping Daniel away from this and give him my attention.
"How's Kiarra. I can see you two are going very well..." I couldn't stop the bitter words and his face frowned. I didn't regret it.
"We're not together. I'm yours, remember?" He brought the weak topic, right now, right here, where Daniel was just an aisle away.
"Last time I che-"
"Why are you away from me? What did I do? Why are you not answering me?" Niall questioned me.
"Niall-"
"Lets go somewhere and talk about this." He took a hold of my hand and started to walk, but I stopped and yanked my hand away. At this, he looked back at me, pained expression on his face.
"I'm here with Daniel and I can't go with you." I hissed at Niall whose face looked screwed up.
"I just wanted to talk." He said sternly and I shook my head. I looked at my phone, I had a message from Daniel saying what was taking so long. So I told Niall I'll meet up at his place this evening. He gave me a kiss on the cheek and my heart beat fastened.
I ran back towards a confused Daniel, panting. "What?" I asked.
"Babe, you seem like you just saw a ghost. Or had a cup of tea with him." He chuckled. "What just happened?"
"I ran into some cute guy and he helped me lifting up, nothing big." Daniel narrowed his eyes at my sentence.
"So you're saying you have a crush on that guy now?"
"No.... not that, just... stop it Daniel." He burst out laughing at my weirdness and I joined. We walked through aisles and aisles of supermarket until we heard girly screams, looked like a celebrity just got mobbed. Wait, Niall? Oops.
"Looks like a hot celebrity is here, lets see who it is." Daniel spoke and my stomach swirled.
"Lets get out from here, I'm exhausted." I tried to sound as exhausting as ever, to make him believe me.
He seems to internally debate, then gave up.
"Okay."
