I Can Treat You Better. ➳ [n.h.]

Chapter 22

*two weeks later*

Allie's POV :)

I wake up next to Niall and look over at him. He's looking down at me and is flashing me that beautiful smile of his.

Today is the day.

Niall & I are going to Jonah's house today to get my stuff.

Niall told me that it wouldn't be safe for me to stay there with him anymore. So, he said I could live with the boys' and him for a while. I tried to refuse his offer but he begged me to stay. And who could ever say no to Niall?

I look over at the clock.

10:30.

"Good morning beautiful," he says while kissing my forehead.

I blush at him. The sound of waking up to his voice every morning makes my heart explode.
"Niall, what did I tell you about calling me beautiful?" I laugh at him.

He flips me over so that I am laying on top of him and I let out a small squeal.

"And what did I tell YOU about me calling you beautiful?" he says while kissing my nose. "I said I will tell you that you are beautiful every single day until you start to believe it."

"I do believe it," I say while covering up my face with my hands.

Niall pulls my hands away from my face and forces me to look at him.

"Liar," he laughs. "Look me in the eyes and tell me that you are beautiful."


Niall lets go of my hands and I place them on his chest.

"I am beautiful," I whisper.

"I'm sorry I can't hear you," he says while smirking at me.

I sigh and start to say it again. "I am bea-" Niall slides his hand underneath the hem of my shirt and places his hand on my stomach.

My stomach is doing blackflips right now.

Niall leans forward so that our noses are touching.

"You hesitated," he whispers. "You lose."

He gets up as fast as he can and I practically fall off the bed.

"NIALL HORAN YOU ARE A CHEATER! COME BACK HERE!" I laugh.

Niall runs towards the door and looks back at me.

"I'm not a cheater," he says and then winks at me.

I grab a pillow off the bed and throw it at him. I completely miss him and the pillow hits the floor with a thump.

"Is that the best you can do?" Niall asks while laughing at me.

I grab the lamp on the table beside the bed and lift it up.

"Okay! Okay!" he laughs. "You win."

I stick my tongue out at him and he skips down out of the room and down the hallway laughing.

He's so adorable.



Niall and I pull up into Jonah's driveway.

He isn't home which will make things a lot easier.

I use my key and open up the door.

I gasp.

"Oh my god," I say.

I step foot into the house and look around.

The curtains are torn.

All of my clothes are shredded and laying on the ground in pieces.

My pictures of my parents and I, me and Rose. All gone.

A tear runs down my cheek and Niall wraps his arm around my waist.

"How could he do this?" I whisper.

I turn around and give Niall a hug and the sound of his heartbeat instantly makes me feel better.

"Everything is going to be fine Al," he says while whispering in my ear.

I hold his hand as we walk through the rest of the house.

I get to the bedroom and discover that a few things have not been touched.

"Well at least everything isn't ruined," I laugh.

I pick up the things and hold them in my arms.

"Welp, I think that's it," I tell him.

Everything crashes down on me. The memories that Jonah had in this place..the good memories, are irreplaceable.

But, I know that I am making the right choice. Niall treats me so much better than Jonah has in a while. But, I will never forget what went on between me and Jonah. Never.

I hand Niall the stuff I am holding and pull out a letter from my pocket.

I set it on the bed and sigh.

"Okay, I'm ready to leave now Niall."

Niall nods his head and we walk out of the room.

We step foot out of the house and I shut the door.

I turn away and walk away from the house as fast as I can.

I sit in the passenger seat of the car and look out the window as we start to drive away.

A tear rolls down my cheek.

"Goodbye Jonah," I whisper as I watch the house fade off into the distance.
