Niall's POV

I walked down the street thinking about how everything started going wrong between Amanda and me,

*flashback*

You're going to tell her today, okay," Liam said with a pat on my back.

"Okay, I'm going to tell her," I stated, a lump forming in my throat.

"Here she comes," he said.

He grabbed Danielle's hand and they walked away, leaving me to face my fear alone.

"Niall!" Amanda yelled, running towards me.

"I have to tell you something," we said at the same time.

"You go first," I smiled nervously.

"Harry Styles asked me out!" she cheered.

My heart broke into a million pieces. The only thing I could do is lie and tell her I'm happy for her.

"I'm so happy for you," I lied.

"So what was it that you wanted to tell me?" she asked.

"Don't worry about it. It's not important," I lied, again.

"Okay. Well I have to go and meet up with Harry. You seriously are the bestest friend ever!" she cheered, hugging me tightly.

She hurried away and I thought to myself, Yeah, I'm such a great friend.

*end of flashback*

I can't believe it's been three months and I still can't own up to tell her. Every time I see them together, I want to stab myself in the eyes. I can't help but wish it was me who got to hold her, me who got to touch her, and me who got to whisper that I love her in her ear. I suddenly felt like putting my thoughts down and strumming my guitar. I walked back into the school and went to the music room. I picked up my guitar and started strumming. I had a pen and paper and the words came down effortlessly.

(Na na na na na)

He takes your hand

I die a little

I watch your eyes

And I'm in riddles

Why can't you look at me like that?

(Na na na na na)

When you walk by

I try to say it

But then I freeze

And never do it

My tongue gets tied

The words get trapped

I hear the beat of my heart getting louder

Whenever I'm near you

But I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

Whenever you kiss him

I'm breaking,

Oh how I wish that was me

(Na na na na na) [

He looks at you

The way that I would

Does all the things, I know that I could

If only time, could just turn back

Cause I got three little words

That I've always been dying to tell you

But I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

Whenever you kiss him

I'm breaking,

Oh how I wish that was me

With my hands on your waist

While we dance in the moonlight

I wish it was me

That you'll call later on

Cause you wanna say good night

Cause I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

But I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

Whenever you kiss him

I'm breaking,

Oh how I wish

Oh how I wish

Oh how I wish, that was me

Oh how I wish, that was me

"Bravo," a voice called out, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I looked up and saw the devil himself, Harry, clapping.

"What do you want, Styles?" I asked, annoyance present in my voice.

He walked away from the door and approached me.

"Hey, I'm not here to fight," he protested, raising his arms in the air.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, curiously filling my eyes.

"Look. I know you're in love with Amanda," he said sternly.

I gulped and said, "It's not like I can do anything about it. She's head over heels for you. She's yours, not mine."

"If you know what's good for you, you'd back off," he warned.

"Excuse me?" I asked, hoping that I heard wrong.

"You heard me. Stay away from Amanda or else!" he threatened, his stare burning a hole through my eyes.

"Are you seriously threatening me?" I asked.

"Think of it as more as advice. You tell her about this and you're dead. Got it?" he barked, a menacing smile forming on his lips.

"Yeah, I got it," I gulped.

He got up and walked away, leaving me to intake what had just happened. I pulled out my phone and texted Liam.

Li Li, I'm having a crisis right now. I need to talk to you ASAP. My life is dependent on this. I'm in the music room – Niall xx

Liam ran into the room and sat down beside me.

"I got your text. What's the problem?" he asked, concern written in his eyes.

"I wrote a song about Amanda," I answered solemnly.

I handed him the piece of paper and he read it with wide eyes.

"Wow, it's that bad?" he asked.

"Yeah. That's how much I love her," I sighed, bringing up my hands to my face.

"This is what your life is dependent on?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No. So after I played the song, I noticed that Harry was at the door and he heard everything. He told me to back off of her or else. He also told me that if I told her, I'm dead. What do I do?"I panicked.

"You got to stand up for yourself. He can't force you to stop being best friends with her. If he lays a finger on you, I'm going to kill him and I mean it," he spoke, is hand placed firmly on my shoulder.

"Thanks Li Li. What would I do without you, mate?"

"That's what best mates are for," he smiled. "Well I got to go before Danielle goes apeshit on me for leaving her at the cafeteria."

He got up and walked out of the room. I pulled out my phone and called Amanda.

"Hi. This is Amanda. Sorry that I can't come to the phone right now, but if you leave me a message, I'll make sure to get back to you," the answering machine spoke.

I sighed and hung the phone. Where could she be? Where could she be? I got it! I ran out of the room and down the halls. I stopped running when I reached the doors to the theatre. Amanda always came here when she was upset. Acting and anything about theatre is the thing that's guaranteed to make her smile. I stood by the doorway and watched as she slowly danced around the stage to About A Girl by The Academy Is…

One song about a girl

I can't breathe when I'm around her

I'll wait here everyday

In case she'll scratch the surface

She'll never notice

I'm not in love

This is not my heart

I'm not gonna waste these words

About a girl

Whoa!

Last night, I knew what to say

But you weren't there to hear it

These lines, so well rehearsed

Tongue tied and over-loaded

You'll never notice

I'm not in love

This is not my heart

I'm not gonna waste these words

About a girl

I'm not in love

This is not your song

I'm not gonna waste these words

About a girl

To be loved, to be loved

What more could you ask for?

To be loved, to be loved

Everyone wants

To be loved, to be loved

What more could you ask for?

To be loved, to be loved

Everyone...

I'm not in love

This is not my heart

I'm not gonna waste these words

I'm not in love

This is not my heart

I'm not gonna waste these words

About a girl

I'm not in love

(To be loved, to be loved, what more could you ask for?)

This is not your song

(To be loved, to be loved, everyone wants)

I'm not gonna waste these words

(To be loved, to be loved)

About a girl.

Was she talking about me? Is she trying to convince herself that she's not in love with me and that she's happy with Harry? Thoughts consumed my brain and I stood there paralyzed. I couldn't find myself from the door.

"Niall! What are you doing here?" Amanda asked.

I could see the shock in her eyes and I froze.

"I-I-I uh-"

"Just spit it out already!" she demanded.

"I'm sorry about earlier today. I shouldn't have gone there. You have a boyfriend and it was wrong of me to put you in that position."

She giggled and asked, "What on earth are you apologizing about? I'm the one who should be apologizing. It was rude of me to just run away and leave you like that and I'm sorry. I just want my best friend back."

"I want my best friend back, too," I smiled.

She hugged me and I held onto her tightly. The bell rang and we quickly broke apart from our embrace.

"I'll see you afterschool?" she asked.

"Yeah, meet me at my locker and we'll talk then," I smiled.

We walked out the door and parted our ways as we ran to our next class.

Harry's POV

I watched as Mrs. Flack continued to smile cheekily at me. Ever since she started "tutoring" me a few months ago, she won't stop smiling and winking at me. Apparently she knew about my reputation, so not much studying got done. I mean we'd study and she'd try to teach me for a half an hour and once everyone was gone, she'd fuck me for another half an hour. I don't know what made it so enjoyable. I think it's the fact that we were doing is wrong is what makes it so thrilling, so enjoyable. I know that I shouldn't be fucking my teacher, especially since I have Amanda, but there's no way I can stop now. That lady is just too god damn seductive and frankly right now I just don't give a damn. I picked out my phone from my pocket and texted her.

Are you down for another tutoring session? ;) – Curly xx

I sent the message and waited until she finished her lecture and sat down at her desk. I was anxious to see her reaction. Fuck! I'm more invested into this then I thought I was. She sat down at her desk after she gave us an assignment to do. I smirked as I watched her lips curve into a smile while she read the message.

Definitely. See you at 3 :D

I smiled at her response. I knew exactly where I was going at three o'clock and nothing was going to change that. I let my thoughts take me back to my first tutoring session with Mrs. Flack.

*flashback*

I watched curiously as Mrs. Flack walked to the windows and closed the curtains. She shut the door and brought a desk right next to me. Just when I thought she was about to sit down, she took my books and brought them to the ground.

"What are you doing?" I asked in bewilderment.

She brought her fingers to my lips and whispered, "Shh. Don't speak."

I froze. I felt trapped and I couldn't find myself to move or say a word.

She brought her fingers to the rim of my trousers and played with the fabric.

"You know what I want and I know what you want, so let's the cut the crap, okay," she whispered, a smirk on her lips.

She pushed me down on the desk and climbed on top of me.

"Mrs. Flack, I-"

She brought her fingers to my lips again and said, "Just shut up and fuck me."

This was turning me on more than it should have and she smirked when she noticed I was starting to have a "problem". Her lips were achingly close to mine and I felt something snap inside of me. I captured her lips onto mine and I was stunned at what I had just done. Her lips moved perfectly in sync with mine and I ran my tongue along her lips, begging for entrance.

The bell ran and my thoughts were interrupted. I walked out of the classroom and my phone buzzed.

You coming to practice today or are you going to tutoring? – Zayn xx

I'm going to tutoring mate. Tell coach that I'm going to practice tomorrow – Haz xx

Alright I will. Have fun at tutoring – Zayn xx

Oh, I was going to have fun alright. I walked around the corner making my way to my locker when I realized that I had made plans with Amanda.

I just remembered I have tutoring today. Sorry babe. Maybe we can hang out tomorrow after football practice – Haz xx

Amanda's POV

I walked towards Niall's locker and saw that he was all alone.

"Hey Nialler," I smiled.

"Hey," he smiled back, bring me into a tight hug.

"Where's the rest of the crew?" I asked.

"Dani and El are on their way to practice and Liam and Louis are probably going to go watch them practice."

"Ah, I see," I nodded.

"So what do you want to do later?" he asked.

"Actually I'm hanging out with Harry."

I saw the disappointment in his eyes. Then I felt my phone vibrate and I read the text Harry sent me.

"On a second thought, Harry just cancelled, so I'm free."

I didn't know whether to be upset that Harry cancelled or happy that I got to hang out with Niall.
