[align=center][font=georgia] Niall shivered slightly when she whispered in his ear. He bit his lip and looked at her. "I wish," he murmured, his voice a whisper letting her head remain in the crook of his neck, rubbing her back. [color=blue]"But babe, not as perfect as you." He kissed her forehead, feeling a little more confident now. He was leaning back. comfortably now. He let her remain his lap, stretching out his legs and closing his blue eyes. He was exhausted now. He was glad that since Ember and Harry were sleep, Morgan might stay in his arms tonight.

Morgan's lips curved into a soft smile, her blue-green eyes slowly closing. "I wish I was as perfect as you..." She whispered, her British accent coming out softly in the quiet room. She took one of his hands and entwined their fingers, curling up closer to Niall. Her breathing got slower and more steady, his heartbeat slow and steady in her ears. Drowsiness overcame Morgan, slowly drifting off to sleep in the Irish lad's arm.
-
[align=center][font=georgia][color=white] Niall managed to stay awake watching her for a little bit until her breathing slowed and she fell asleep. Niall closed his blue eyes, not able to stop smiling. Soon, he drifted off to sleep, the silence more comfortable.

[align=center][font=georgia] Ember stirred awake, looking around. She was still tired, but now she suddenly realized that she had fallen asleep in Harry's arms. She was able to contain her thoughts just to ask herself what the hell had she been thinking? She moved from Harry and pulled her phone from her pocket, checking the time. Six o'clock in the morning. For some reason she was silently panicking inside. Have to get out of here She gave a brief look towards Harry, before looking at Morgan, asleep in Niall's arms. She couldn't stay here. And if anyone asked why, she'd just say it was because of her job. She was hesitant to wake her friend up because she looked like she was happy, but she called for her anyways. [color=black]"Morgee." she whispered.
-
Morgan's eyes slowly opened, sighing when she saw Ember. "Nnnh..." She moaned, glancing up at the sleeping Niall. She guessed she wanted to leave, and she understood. She couldn't just abandon her friend. "Okay.. Fine." She whispered, taking the slip of paper from her pocket she had been saving with her number in it for Niall, carefully untangling herself from his arms. She was instantly cold, his body heat keeping her warm the whole time. She set the paper in his hand, before standing up and nodding, heading towards the door.
-
[align=center][font=georgia]Sighing, Ember looked over towards Harry once more. She got up and headed towards the door behind her friend, heading out the door first. She took out her phone again, calling up the taxi so it could come and get them. The sun was just starting to come up and shine brightly. She told them where they were now all they had to do was wait. Hopefully Harry or Niall didn't wake up. She looked at Morgan, frowning, crossing her arms. [color=gold]"What was I thinking last night?" she mumbled, pacing back and forth. [color=gold]"I'm not supposed to like him."
-
Morgan's lips tugged upwards into a smile. She walked over to her friend and placed a hand on her shoulder, her British accent ringing out in the quiet street. "He's changed, Ember. Give him a chance." She said softly, not wanting to push her boundaries. She got out her phone, awaiting the text from Niall in the near future. The taxi soon arrived, the man opening the back doors to let them in. She climbed in, a sigh escaping her lips.
-
[align=center][font=georgia] Ember looked at Morgan. The bad mood was able to make in her eyes, her eyes averting to the house where she fell asleep in Harry's arms. [color=gold]"That was all a joke," she mumbled, still trying to convince herself. When the taxi arrived, she got into the car after Morgan, closing the door behind her, looking out the window at the apartment one last time, wondering why she even bothered to give him a chance. Then again she was wondering why she was doing this.
-
Morgan sighed gently, her iPhone clutched gently in her hands. "If it were a joke, then why'd he try so hard?" She countered, her blue-green gaze catching one last glance at the house they were just in, the house where the best night of let life had just taken place. She really did feel bad for leaving so soon, but she couldn't leave Ember alone, much less betray her.
-
[align=center][font=georgia] Ember knew she was being a total bitch. She knew that she was probably overracting and that her whole reputation that end up being built up as a wallflower, her reputation of trust issues was getting to her but she couldn't help it. She just gave a careless shrug, refusing to meet her friend's gaze. "Celebrities love to flaunt. Especially celebrities like Harry." she mumbled and looked straight ahead now, not wanting to look at the house anymore. "Look I'm not telling you you can't see Niall anymore...I just don't know if I want to see Harry."
Niall woke up. He didn't know what it was, but something just woke him up. Slowly, he lifted himself up from where he slept, lifting a piece of paper. Morgan was nowhere to be seen, he noticed. He looked over at Harry, thinking maybe that Morgan went to the bathroom but Ember wasn't there either. He looked at the numbers on the paper before looking at Harry. He grabbed a pillow nearby and hit him with it. "Haz." he whispered. [color=blue]"Haz... they're gone."
-
Harry groaned, lifting his head in defense. "Uggnnhhhh..." He moaned, the words finally clicking in his mind. "They're what...?" He whispered, his emerald eyes growing wide. His hands instantly reached for the of where Ember was last night, his heart sinking. They had left.. Ember had left... "I knew it.. She doesn't trust me." He whispered, his voice breaking. He ran a hand through his curly brown hair, climbing to his feet. Harry's eyes were clouded and broken, taking one last glance at Niall before trudging to his room.
Morgan shook her head, shrugging half-heartedly. Before the Taxi could get too far and go too fast, she stopped the man. "Just drop me off here, I'm going to Starbucks." She said, handing the man some money in advance to pay for part of Ember's ride. She tucked her iPhone in her back pocket, climbing out of the cab. She was kind of irritated with her friend for not giving Harry a chance, but it wasn't her place to say. She started down the street, heading back towards the way of the house. Starbucks was a few buildings down, as she started to make her way towards the restaurant with a heavy heart and tired eyes.
-
[align=center][font=georgia] Ember frowned, watching Morgan get out the car. She wanted to flick her best friend off, the only friend that she thought she had, had been turned into a lovesick puppy dog. She took out her phone, turning it off completely. She wasn't going to work. In fact, she wasn't going anywhere tonight. She was just ignoring the world. She knew what she did was wrong. But if Harry thought she'd trust that easily after all he'd in the past, if he thought she still didn't live there, if he thought when she looked in his eyes she still didn't see that bully, he was dead wrong. As the cab went on, she messed around with her hair. She thought of something that she'd do when she got home. As the taxi dresser pulled into her flat, she paid him before going towards the house and unlocking the door, pushing it open and instantly went to get her laptop after closing and locking the door. [color=gold]"It's still gotta be here...." she mumbled, logging into her account.
Niall knew it couldn't be Morgan who wanted to leave, it had to be just Ember. The way Morgan looked into his eyes, the way she kissed him couldn't just be a lie. They fell asleep together, in his arms but so did Ember. She looked so happy at first but also she noticed she was still trying to decide... but he thought she would last. What made her decide Harry wasn't safe? Niall watched Harry leave, knowing that the young lad was upset. He decided he'd try and call Morgan about it. Taking out his phone, he put in her number and put the phone to his ear, hoping that she'd pick up.
-
Harry slipped off his shirt, throwing it into the hamper in his room. The boys would be back at ten in the morning, and it was only about six thirty. He actually tried, he really did. It was like his heart was breaking, but it was still beating. He was barely holding on. It was crazy how a girl could get him this wound up, and he didn't know what was wrong with him. He decided not to caller right now, as he thought he'd be pushing it. He collapsed on his bed, heaving a sigh.
Morgan felt bad about leaving Ember in the car, but she couldn't really take having a glum day. She jumped a little when she felt her phone vibrate in her back pocket. It's probably Ember.. She thought with a frown, taking it out of her pocket. Unknown number.. Niall?! She thought with a little bit of excitement, answering the phone. She heard his voice on the other end, entering Starbucks. "Hey.. Meet me at Starbucks alright love?" She said, her British accent ringing out smoothly, her lips tugging upwards into a smile.
-
[align=center][font=georgia] Niall knew he should be happy about the whole point that she wanted to stick with him but, he was still sort of upset towards Ember that she just left without telling Harry exactly why. He bit his bottom lip for a moment. "Of course..." he said in a bit downcast voice. Getting up, he hung up the phone and grabbed his jacket before heading out the door. He hated to leave Harry alone but he knew he would have to talk to Morgan about it and bringing Harry to only talk about Ember. Not only that, but him and Morgan might be giving off the couple vibe and that probably wouldn't make Harry very happy either. He headed down the sidewalk towards Starbucks, giving a small smile when he saw Morgan. He pulled her into a quick hug. [color=blue]"I'm glad it wasn't you who wanted to go." he murmured.
Ember looked through her computer trying to think of what it was. It was those pictures. Those pictures that got to her before Harry started bullying her. She bit her fingernails and looked for them until finally she did. They seemed so happy. She knew she had a video of them but lost it somewhere. She closed her laptop and threw it aside, taking a frustrating breath.
-
Harry laid on his bed in the cool building, scrolling through instagram and facebook on his phone, finally ending up on tumblr. He needed some sleep, but you can't sleep away your problems.. Right? His emerald gaze stared at the wall, slowly but surely putting his thoughts back together.
Morgan hugged him back, a smile making its way on her lips. "Why would I..?" She whispered, sitting down in the booth. She ran a hand through her hair, her blue-green gaze tired. She looked up, already sort of knowing his question. "Im sorry about this morning.. I hope Harry isn't too wrecked." She started, a hand reaching across the table and taking his hand. "They met when they were younger, and they had some bad times.. And Ember has very bad trust issues.. And I feel like I'm just getting caught in the middle of it but..." She added with a heavy sigh, glancing back up. "Niall, you're the best thing that's ever happened to me. And I'm just confused and I wish she'd loosen up a little but.." She finished, a frustrated look in her face. Morgan was tired, confused, and irritated. She leaned back, a crooked smile tugging at her lips.
-
[align=center][font=georgia] Ember suddenly really wanted to call Harry, apologize. Why would she ever think everything he did be fake? Why would she think that it was a lie? She felt honestly horrible. Harry could now just be the victim and she was the bully because that's what it felt like. Pulling out her phone, she waited for it to turn on. Once it did, she looked for Harry's phone number. She stared at it for the longest moment before texting him. She decided if he forgave him, she knew what she'd do. It might be hard knowing that she had this love/hate relationship a bit but it might lower her walls towards him. She flipped up her phone and turned it sideways so she could type. 'Sorry for leaving early. :/' she text him, hoping that the curly haired lad replied. She didn't regret last night, she just regretted the moves she made, ever falling asleep in his arms. But everything else could have been too perfect. She remembered when Harry used to work at a bakery. Sometimes she'd help him. She didn't know what ever went wrong, what caused him to become the bully he did.
Niall followed her into Starbucks, grinning a bit. He couldn't help it. She made him so happy. He sunk down across the booth from her, listening to her. Yes, he was upset with Ember, but whatever had gone wrong between their friendship, he could understand why. He remembered how hesitantly had explained it, as if he didn't want to tell him some of things, like he was afraid. "I understand..." he mumbled. As she went on, bringing up that he was the best thing that ever happened to her, he gave a small smile, not being able to help it. She was so beautiful, her eyes shinning brighter in the sunlight that shone through the glass windows of Starbucks. [color=blue]"Yeah... maybe she thought their relationship we're going too fast but..." he bit his bottom lip, not knowing what else to even say.
-
Harry's eyes snapped open when his ringtone went off, sighing heavily. He really just wanted to rest and sleep, and not pay attention to the world. He lifted his phone from his bare chest, opening the text from Ember. His facial expression didn't change, he just typed in a reply. It's alright. He wasn't really in the mood at the moment, but he would like to get another chance with her. He wasn't going to give up.
Morgan nodded, another sigh escaping her lips. "I guess.." She murmured, her latte arriving that she had ordered earlier. "You want anything?" She questioned, taking out her wallet. She gave a shy smile, her gaze meeting his. She didn't know what it was, but she really thought she could trust Niall. Her smile grew, glancing down with a soft blush.
-
[align=center][font=georgia] Ember was relieved though she was sure it wasn't true. She had left him, even though he didn't officially know why she left, but had a pretty excellent idea. An idea that may be true. She bit on her bottom lip reading Harry's text, thinking for a moment. 'About that... I was wrong to just leave without telling you why. I'm sorry. But with our past and my trust issues, I believe we were taking it too fast. I think it's best we were just friends.' She replied. She hoped it wouldn't hurt him... that's if he really cared about her. She just didn't think they were right for each other and if they were, she just wasn't comfortable in being in a relationship with him as she thought she did last night.
Niall reached in his pocket for his own wallet, shaking his head. "It's fine, Morgan, I got this." he said reassuringly, ordering himself a latte. He wished he ordered one for her before she could. Now he didn't feel like a boyfriend she probably hope. He chewed his bottom lip, looking down at the table. [color=blue]"Sorry for not offering to buy you the latte earlier." he said in adorable pouty voice.
-
Harry's eyes scanned over the text with a heavy heart. Just friends. Sorry. He threw his phone to the ground, not bothering to reply. He wasn't mad at Ember, he was mostly mad at himself. He tried that hard, spent all that money out of his own personal account, fretted that much... For this. What happened to "We should do this again sometime?" His emerald eyes were filled with tiredness, and hurt. He wasn't going to go off on her, but just take it out on himself. Because he caused all this mess in the first place. If only he was nicer to her, if only he hadn't used her. Things might just be different.
Morgan's lips tugged upwards into a wide smile, taking a lip of her latte. "It's perfectly fine, Niall." She replied sincerely. It was true, she didn't mind paying for her own. To tell the truth, she thought that she was the one who should be paying for his. To wipe the pouty face off of his lips, she leaned forward and pecked his cheek, a cheeky smile plastered on her lips as she sat back down. Her cheeks were flushed a soft red, taking another sip of the warm drink. Morgan thought the opposite of what Niall was thinking. She thought he was great, perfect even. She smiled at the thought, her blue-green gaze lighting up.
