This new job was something I have been working towards for like 2 years. I would be living in New York City for about 3 months. Yes technically Lola was right…this job would be a great reason to get out of this setup. But do I really want to? We were in New York right now. And I wanted to go clubbing but Niall wanted to stay in and relax. So we were out looking for movies to buy. I was just wondering the aisles. Someone poked me. I whirled around to see some guy. "You're Cleo Somerson! You are such a great model!" I look at him but really I'm looking behind him at Niall who is in a disguise. "Oh um thank you." He just smiles and nods. I smile awkwardly at him. Niall was looking at horror movies. So his back was turned to me. "Um do you want me to sign--"
"A picture would be killer." I just smile and agree. I take a couple of pictures with him. Then he hugs me and leaves. I look continue to around the store. Then I hear a thick Irish accent come from behind me. "I found movies…did you find some?" I nod and add all the Iron Man's to the basket. Niall just chuckles and grabs my hand. He buys the movies and we head back to the hotel. When we get there all the rest of the boys were heading out. "Hey! You guys want to come? Going to hit some clubs tonight probably. Doing a bit of shopping right now though."
"No I'm good. Cleo and I are having a movie day." Niall smiled at them. They all just nod and continue out. Ugh I would kill to go with them. But nope movies it is. I don't really mind because it gives me a chance to be with Niall like old times. I don’t really know why but I am kind of nervous. We get up to our room and Niall puts the movies down while I grab clothes to sleep in. Which was Niall's blue shirt and my underwear. I get back out and Niall looks at me with wide eyes. "Cleo holy crap you should I don't know…I um you…" I can't help but laugh at him. God he was so cute all flustered. I jump on to the bed and look at him while he tries to no look at my exposed legs. "What? I'm comfortable. It’s a movie day! I don't plan on going anywhere."
"I can see that…" Now he's busy looking through the movies in the bag careful to not look at me. "What movie are we watching?" I get up and go over to him. He looks at me coming over and quickly shuts the drapes. "Jesus Cleo! What if someone saw you?!"
"They can see me in a Burberry spread or in a magazine practically everyday."
"You can be such a pain. And I take it you want to watch Iron Man." I smiled at him and nodded. I hopped back onto the bed and watched as he put in the movie. He came over and flopped down next to me. I lay down on my stomach next to him. I hear him just sigh. "Shh you'll ruin the movie."
"Cleo can't you put on pants?"
"Why? I do this all the time with Mickey and he doesn't get weird." I know that bringing up Mickey will make Niall shut up. "Yea well I can't focus on the movie with your nice ass right there." I quickly sit up and look at him. I honestly was not expecting him to say anything. He was smiling at me and moved to where I was. Which was smack in the middle of the bed. He was on all fours and his face was right in front of mine. My heart was beating so fast and loud. I was looking in to his ice blue eyes. They were so pretty. Way better than my boring grey ones. I fine myself praying for him to just kiss me already. I was staring at his perfect lips. Crap I shouldn't be thinking that. But here I am staring at his lips just waiting for him to kiss me. I feel like time has literally stopped. He rests his forehead on mine. "What do you want Cleo?" I find myself thinking you. I want you Niall. That’s all…but I know that I can't have him. But yet I want him so badly. Fuck it. I'm doing what will make me happy and right now that's him. So I kiss him. I bring my hands to the side of his face. But then he pulls away. "Friends don't do that Cleo." Ugh I forgot I said that! I just look at him. I know that he is right though. I know that I will just end up hurting him in the end. Or he won't want me…everyone minus Rachel, Mickey, and Lola. But my heart felt like it was just shot. "Right um sorry. I just…you…lets just watch the movie." I weakly smile. Some point during the third movie I drifted off.

I am running to the hospital. Harry is waiting for me there. "Cleo…"
"What happened? Where is he? Where is Niall Harry?!"
"He didn't make it Cleo…they did everything…" I just sank to the ground. No this couldn't be happening. He was just driving home that's all. A routine route. My Niall can't be gone. He's the only source of happiness. What will I do now? Harry lifts me up and hugs me. "Everything will be okay I promise okay. He told me to tell you he loved you so much and to never ever give up hope. He'll see you on the other side." I am just a blubbering mess. I just wanted my Niall back.

"Cleo! Wake up! Baby come on." I wake up and I feel tears coming down my cheeks. I fly into his arms. He's still here…still alive. "Cleo calm down its just a dream. I won't let him hurt you."
"It wasn’t…about…him. You died Niall!" His arms tightened around me. I don't even know what to do. That nightmare scared me more than any other one I had. "Cleo baby stop crying. I promise to not die."
"Don't make promises you can't keep Niall. Just don't die yet okay?" He just laughed at me. I sat up and wiped away my tears. Niall was just watching me. I liked it when he called me baby but maybe he doesn't want me anymore. I mean he stopped kissing me earlier. And I feel that pain in my heart again. "Cleo are you okay? Come here." I scoot back to him and lie down in his arms. I love being in his arms. I really do. They make me feel safe like he really will keep all my demons away. I hear him singing 'Through the Dark'. I let his voice drift me back to sleep.

The Next Day
I wake up and I am still in Niall's arms. I snuggle closer to him. Then there was knocking so he woke up and answered. Which I was upset about. I don't want him to leave me. It must be time to go to the venue. I get up and go shower while Niall just waits for me. I change into some clothes. "Ready to go?" I just nod. He was wearing a plain white shirt and jeans. His shirt hugged his arms. I put my hands into his and he looks at me funny. I don’t know why he is looking at me like that. He said to be more couple-y so I'm doing what he said to. I just smiled back at him. He just squeezed my hand and led us to the car. There were people banging on the windows and stuff. "This is so weird. I never thought you were this famous…" I hear Harry laugh at me and Niall just kissed the side of my head. "Yea it gets crazy sometimes baby…but its okay. The fans are the best…most of the time." Yea most of the time. I have yet to tell him about how much hate I get on twitter over dating him. People say I am just another Barbara but I would rather kill myself than be like that bitch. "If you say so…"
"Cleo what are you thinking about?" I look at him and just shake my head. I don't want to cause any trouble. "Cleo…" He moves my head with his hand so I am looking at him now. My eyes dart to Harry who is looking at us. I just shake my head again. "Its nothing Niall." I look back out the window. I hear him sigh. I watch as the streets and shops zoom by. My phone buzzes and I go to grab it but Niall beats me to it. "Niall give me that!"
"Cleo you never said you were getting hate messages!!" I can see that he is pissed because his eyes were no longer light blue. They were darker now. Well crap on a cracker. He was just scrolling through all the messages I have gotten on twitter. "It's not that big of a deal Niall."
"Yes it is Cleo! God they are saying you're like Barbara! Why didn't you tell me?" I swipe my phone out of his hands and shove it into my purse. I never told him because well it doesn't bother me. Honestly I find it hilarious that these girls get all crazy over them. Like seriously calm your fucking tits. "It was none of your business. I don't care what people say."
"It is my business! You're MY girlfriend they shouldn't be saying this shit about you." Then he pulls out his phone and starts to type. Oh no…he better not be. "There taken care of. Nobody treats someone I care about like that." He did. I scowl at him and go back to looking out the window. I don't need him to take care of me. I know how to handle hate. We pull up to venue and we all get out. We got to the dressing room where I sit and watch the boys get their hair done. I watch as Niall jokes around with the boys. His laugh was probably the thing I loved the most about him. Love what a strong word. I do love it though…I always did. They were getting ready to leave for the stage. Niall and I were the last ones in the hallway. "Good luck…have fun. Well you always do…um yea try not to get hit by anything…" Why the fuck am I so nervous right now?
"Thanks Cleo." He smiles at me and heads over to the stage. I head over to where I would be for the night. Which is just backstage on a sofa. Then Niall comes running back over. "I forgot something." I look at him in confusion. What could he have forgotten? "What? I could go get it for you…" Then he just kisses me. His arms are around my waist. My arms are trapped between our bodies. Then he just whispers into my ear. "My good luck kiss." He smiles and runs back over to the boys. Holy shit…I think I am falling for Niall.
