Oblivion |N.H| •Sequel to Hired•

-Chapter 3

"Mom, I really don't want to do this." I sighed deeply as she fixed my hair. I looked over at Joanna who gave me a sympathetic look. 

"Well, you don't want to date Niall anymore so you're going on this blind date." She insisted. I did want to date Niall, (marry Niall) I just wanted to show him he can't treat me the way he did because I won't stand for it. Call me dramatic, call me delusional, whatever you want but I just wanted to prove to Niall that I will not allow him to treat me like shit, which is putting it lightly. 

I know he was hurt, but that doesn't give him the right to be the way he was to me. Now, I may be jeopardising it all because my mother wants me to go on a date. Imagine if Niall found out this. I mean, I'm engaged to him, right? 

I'm only going because I don't want to tell my mother what Niall done, especially when she finally accepted him. If she knew, she would hate him once again and I don't think she has a reason for hating him before so there is no reason to give her one. 

I sighed quietly, looking over at Joanna. I really don't want to do this, but I don't have a choice. My mother is going to make me. 

Niall's POV 

"Come on, lighten up and have a few drinks." Louis yelled over the ear pounding music. I nodded and followed him to the bar, getting a drink like he wanted. I could use one to get my mind off of Jenny. One leads to another, before I even know it I'm drunk. Although instead of dancing and having a good time, like you would expect I was the total opposite. 

Once I was drunk, I was whining to Louis about Jenny and trying to call and text her but Louis, thankfully, snatched my phone away before I could send any texts that would be regretted. "I want Jenny." I whined and clung onto him. 

"Mate, she's not here." Louis tried to stand me up straight but I was refusing. I was drunk and lonely. I wanted affection but Jenny wasn't here. It was inevitable. The tears started. "Okay, home time Mister." Louis said and somehow managed haul me out to a cab. I don't know how he did, it was all a blur 

Louis got out first because his house was first. He gave the driver strict instruction to take me to my house. When he asked where my house was I told him Jenny's address. 

When I got there I stumbled out of the cab after throwing like twice the amount I owed him at him. I knocked on the door and Jenny's mom answered. It wasn't that late so I knew they wouldn't be asleep yet. 

"Is Jenny there?" I asked, attempting to keep my eyes open. 

"Uh.. no." She quickly replied and went to shut the door but I stuck my foot in so she couldn't shut it. I had no idea how I kept a steady balance but I somehow achieved it. "She's not here Niall, she's on a date, just go home." She sighed and I rubbed my eyes, squinting at her. 

"She can't be on a date. I'm right here." I incredulously exclaimed. I slurred the sentence a bit which made her mom roll her eyes. It was obvious she felt like I was wasting her time now and I could feel a sense that I was unwanted. It wasn't hard to depict the note the air had taken around us. 

"She's on a date with someone who isn't you, now go home and sober up." She tried to close the door again but I wouldn't let her. 

"Lisa please, I need to see her." My eyes filled with tears. One slipped down my cheek but I quickly wiped it away. 

"Niall she is not here, she is on a date, now go home." She began to raise her voice. 

"What's going on?" Jenny came up behind Lisa and Lisa's eyes widened. She cleared her throat as i raised an eyebrow at her. I was too drunk to care about the fact she lied because all I really wanted to Jenny and she was finally standing in front of me. I pushed Lisa out of the way and ran to Jenny, almost falling but i managed to stabilise myself. I brought her into a tight embrace because really I just needed a hug.
