Stole My Heart -fanfic (Niall) PART 1

Sarah's P.o.v




"But, mum! I dont wanna go!" i complain after my mum tells me she has enrolled me to a course in the woods this weekend.


"Cmon, Sarah, it'll be fun! It's only for teenagers, so you wont be alone" I sigh. My mum's really excited. She tells me she always wanted to do something like this when she was my age. Yeah, but im not her.


"Okay..... " i give up. "I'll go." But i still dont wanna go. I'm doing it for her. I mean it's only about wandering in the woods, taking notes of what the guide says and enjoying Mother Nature.

******

"Okay, so we're about to start" i hear the guide say. "Is everyone ready?" I think of saying i feel sick and that i wanna go home to rest, but suddenly a guy arrives. I sigh, frustrated, cause my performance is now ruined.

"Wait!!" he yells while he runs towards the group. "Can I join you? Sorry I'm late". He's panting.

"Sure!" says the guide, happy there's someone else interested in the course. "But i guess i'm gonna have to repeat the rules:
 1.- Do NOT walk away from the group, you dont wanna get lost.

 2.- If an accident happens, tell......"     I stop listening. Gosh, i really want to go home. Besides, who is this guy to appear out of no-where interrupting my feel-sick performance? I'm so frustrated. I look angrily at him but he just looks back smiling friendly at me. I roll my eyes.

"Any questions? No? Let's go then" Says the guide.

Niall's P.o.V


"Wait!" i yell. Omg, first day of the course and im arriving late. "Can i join you? Sorry I'm late". 


"Sure!" answers the man who must be the guide. He repeats the rules, so I'm aware of what i've to do in case that something happens. I suddelny hear someone sigh and look at them. I thought it's a boy but no. It is a girl. I force myself to listen to the guide, but i cant. She... she... has something, but i've no idea what. 


"Let's go then" says the guide and i react. The course is about to start.

Sarah's P.oV

On the way everyone seems to be enjoying the course. What's wrong with them? I think. I just take out my IPod and tune off the world. Yes, music. So much better than a boring course. 

I look up and realize a girl's looking at me. Wait, it's not only her, everyone is looking at me. Suddenly someone pokes my arm.


"What is this for?" Asks the guide. "I thought i'd said i didnt want to see any kind of electronics. Give it to me" I give him my IPod angrily and then i hear laughter. I turn around to see who's laughing and find the guy who arrived at last. I dont stop looking at him and when he realizes he immeadiatly shuts up and  mumbles he's sorry. I frown at him, but i'd actually like him to start laughing again. He starts blushing, turns his back on me and gives me a beautiful view of his blond hair. C'mon, Sarah. Dont be stupid. You hate him. I tell myself.


"C'mon, Electronic Girl, he dont have all day" says a boy from the group taking me out of my thoughts. Great, now I even have a nickname. 

******

I'm not in a good mood exactly. I just pretend to be interested while im silently begging for a superhero to hear my complains and take me out of here.

"Okay, let's take a break" says the guide. Soon is everyone sitting in groups, eating some lunch and chatting about stuff while im alone looking for somewhere i can sit.

"Hey! Hey, you!" yells someone, but i suppose it's not to me.

"You, the electronic girl!" yells someone else and the ones that heard start laughing. I turn around to face the people that are trying to bother me, but i dont know who they are.

"Hey!" I hear again and this time i see it's the blond guy. I remember he interrupted me earlier. "Why dont you come sit with us?" He says with a smile. A beautiful smile, actually. Is he serious?

"Really?" I ask, feeling a little better now.

        We finally start wandering. The guide says it's okay if we chat with others, as long as we stay quiet when he starts explaining something, so i look for the girl i saw earlier. When i find her it takes me a few minutes to decide wether or not to go talk to her. What's going on? Am i nervous? Yes, yes i am. She makes me nervous. Go talk to her! You can do this, she's just a person. I take a step forward, but suddenly she takes out her IPod. She must be ignoring the world now. Crap, i should've acted earlier. 

A few minutes later, the guide starts to explain something and notices thet she's wearing headphones. He starts telling her that's a bit disrespectful, but she's really not listening. Everyone is looking at her now and finally she notices. 

"Give it to me" says the guide and she passes him her IPod. They're both upset. She makes a funny face and i cant help but laugh. But uh, oh, she hears me and immeadiatly looks at me, frowning. Great, Niall! You havent even talked to her and she's already mad at you! Im doing everything wrong. My face suddenly gets hotter and i can picture myself all red, so i turn around, hoping she didnt notice that.

******

    On the break, a boy called Brandon, his friends and i sit together. Finally, food! I tell myself. That makes me feel better after my embarassment.
   We're all eating, when i see that girl again. This time i have to talk to her, so I invite her to come sit with us. At first she's a bit confused, but i smile at her and she realizes im not kidding.

"Really?" She asks and smiles back shyly at me. But i dont answer immediatly. She's so beautiful i cant help it. 

"NO" says Brandon and everyone starts laughing at her...again. She rolls her eyes and that tiny thing that connected us -if there ever was one- vanished. Ha-ha. No. There probably never was anything between us. I'm over reacting. She probably hates me. And i dont know why, because i dont even know her, but it hurts. 

I'd give up. But i dont wanna. Not on her. Yes, i might be crazy, but i cant help it. So i look at Brandon angrily and stand up.

   Stupid me for believing him. Wait, is he walking towards me? Omg, what does he want now? He's only gonna cause problems. Just ignore him. I take my bottle of water, ignoring him, when suddenly someone passes by and makes me spill water all over my clothes. Okay, this is war!

   I take my bottle, still not epmty, and throw some water at the boy who gave me the shove, but he notices and moves. I see like in slow motion, how the water gets the blond boy wet. He stops walking and looks at me, then at his wet clothes and at me again. He raises an eyebrow and shakes his head, smiling mischivously.

"Well, i didnt want to do this.... but you made me" he says and starts running towards me, trying to chase me. I start runnin too, away from him. Everyone is looking at us, the two crazy dudes playing like little kids.

"Stop it!" I yell.

"No, i'm gonna get you back!" He says playfully. I laugh. Wait...... no, yes, i'm laughing. This is probably the most exciting thing that happened today. 

   I look back, to see if he's still there, when suddenly, i fall over a stone, for not watching my step. I start rolling down the woods. I just close my eyes and wait till i stop. Every thought i have is now negative. 

I finally stop rolling. I sigh. I want to go home. No matter the rules, no matter the stupid course, no matter the stupid people in my group. I try to stand up, but my foot really hurts, so i fall down again. Then i see him coming.

Niall's P.o.V

"Oh my God, oh my God!" i say. What have you done, Niall?!

"Oh, not you again, please" she says, which makes me feel worse. 

"Im sorry, i really am!" i say...again, and again. "Are you okay?" i ask her, kneeling in front of her, holding her face, her hands, verifying she's alright.

"Why?" she says. I look at her, not sure what she meant. 

"Why what?"

"Why did you even talked to me in the first place? Why are you here right now? Dont you have other things to do?"

"Well, i..." i try to say, but she interrupts me.

"Who are you, anyways?" Silence.

"Ummm...." Im not sure what to say. "Im Niall" Silence, again. Only this time it's longer. "I'm really sorry" I tell her (again). But i mean it. I really am. I look at the ground. She sighs.

"It's okay....None of this is your fault" She says, calmly now. I look right at her eyes....those amazingly beautiful eyes. "I should be the one who's sorry for treating you like this... Niall." She says. And i smile.

Sarah's P.o.V:

We stay there for a while, talking about ourselves. He's a very sweet person, and i feel sorry for not realizing that before. He tells me he's in a band, and that he loves singing and playing guitar. After a while i finally say:

"I think you should go back with the group. They must be looking for us"

"Are you crazy? Im not gonna leave you alone. And they're probably long gone" he says, and i try to hide my smile. 

"No, " i insist. "I really think you should go. Those were the rules. You're gonna get into trouble".

"No, im not gonna leave you." He says firmly. "I dont wanna leave you, okay?" I look up, and analyse if he's telling the truth. "Okay?" He asks me again. Im lost in his words. Is it possible that i like him? I mean, i hated him an hour ago.


"Okay" i answer, still trying to hide my smile.


"Great." he smiles. "So, i think it's a splint" he says, now looking at my foot. "I've had a coulple and this totally looks like one. Can you stand up?"


"Uuh, i dont know, let me try" I answer, but im not really sure about this, cause i tried it before and it didnt work. He takes my hand and i use it as a support, but i start trembling. It really hurts. "Ouch" i say and make a face. "I'm not sure if this is a good idea"


"Dont worry, i'll be here to catch you". There he goes one more time. So sweet. I get lost in his words again. Suddenly i fall on top of him.


"I'm sorry!" I say ashamed. He takes my hair off my forehead and smiles.


"You know, you still havent told me your name". I have to smile again, and this time i cant hide it.
