Not all girls are fond of attention, not Olivia Summers, a young girl from Ireland. She always hated the spotlight, attention and always felt uncomfortable. She's not too keen on that idea. But the problem is, her best friend is Niall Horan, the popstar who loves to eat and sing. They've been childhood best friends ever since Niall comforted her. Hiding away from fame and the spotlight is hard considering Olivia is best friends with One Direction. Sooner or later, she gets used to it because there is nothing she can do. Her feelings for one of her best friends arise and she's not sure whether or not she wants to be in a relationship with him. She's worried her feelings will get crushed just like how it already once did and it wasn't a nice story to remind her of her insecurities. Every girl has her own insecurities, including Olivia especially from the hate and love she gets from the fans of One Direction. Will he be able to help her overcome her broken and fragile heart, will he be able to break her guard down and never let her go? Just like she wants to?

“From every single person who has hurt me, I never expected the worst to be from you.” Tears escape my eyes. I don’t think I can ever forget this day. “I’m so, so sorry.” He looks down. “It’s done. It is over.” “What do you mean?“ His eyes were red. Very red. It was breaking both of us apart. “The spaces between us is deep… so deep that none of us could reach for each other anymore.” I breathe. “So then?” “Let’s just end it all here.” _______________________________ Update 11/11/15: This is a completed story. I will be editing the entire book starting from today! SEQUEL IS UP!

[completed.] It all started at a wedding. He was best friends of the groom, her of the bride. They had never met until now. He was stubborn and never believed in love at first sight. Well, until he met her. She was too insecure about her looks to think love could ever find her. And when love smacks her straight in the face, she still doesn't realize it. She sees him as a friend, nothing more. But on the other hand, he can't get her off his mind. With a set of "accidental" run-ins and untitled dates, will this boy ever get the girl to fall? Warning: This was during my early writing, so will probably be a bit carrot-y. Apologies in advance. My other stories have a more mature writing style. Cᴏᴘʏʀɪɢʜᴛ © 2013 actuallysteph_

NIALL: What in the world just happened? I choked at seeing this girl? And did a spit take when I actually got a good look at her? What the hell is wrong with me? LOUIS: I turn around because I'm sure that would have made Summer laugh. But she remains silent. Her hands are still doing something with my phone and the stereo. Her face is blank looking at Niall with her eyes slightly squinted. That's weird. Summer has laughed almost every time one of us does something funny. ZAYN: "But you're One Direction." I hear her mumble. She sighs. "And that matters because?" She doesn't need to be so insecure around us. She just needs to be herself. I know that's what Niall likes. She turns around, giving me a look and with her hands on her hips. "Do I need to explain it to you?" She says sassily. Then she giggles turning back around. HARRY: "Where do you want to go?" The way her American accent blends in with her awkwardness and sassiness is attractive. And it's also funny because Niall hasn't taken his eyes off her the whole time. Mission accepted. Niall and Summer. LIAM: I look at him with a smirk on my face. He furrows his eyebrows at me. "What?" "Summer will be here soon and with all of us busy with our interviews. I thought Niall could occupy her." Zayn squints his eyes at me and comes right up in my face. "What?" I back up laughing a bit. He backs off. "You're quite the mastermind." He gives me a nod of approval. SUMMER: Man, how are we living in a world where a normal teenage girl can't fangirl anytime and anywhere? This sucks. Please forgive the minor bad fanfic moments, such as where they meet, falling in love in a short period of time, and a couple of small character cliches.

~|How can you break something that's already broken?|~ "You've already taken eveything from me, what more could you possibly want?!" "You.
