Something New // Niall Horan

Dinner

"So, wanna watch a movie tonight?" Jess asked me while lying on her bed staring blankly at her laptop.

"Oh..I uh, I have a date with Niall.." I trailed off, bracing myself for her response.

"Ha. No really. What movie are we watching?"

I huffed and avoided eye contact.

"Nooo.. You're joking right. Tell me you're joking," she says desperately.

"I have no choice. He was going to tell everyone that we slept together."

"You slept with Niall?" She asked disbelievingly.

"No. Of course not. I told him one dinner and then he can just piss off out of my life."

"Don't do anything with him."

"Never." I replied sharply.

"Okay, you should wear my red short dress and the black heels."

"And will you curl my hair?" I asked.

"Sure now c'mon you only have a few minutes. Niall texted me."

"What did he say?" I asked.

She smiled at the screen.

"What? What did he say?" I ask.

"You'll see." She said in a teasing sing song. "Now c'mon sit down and I'll do your hair." She said changing the subject.

"It's three minutes past seven, he's late!" Jess said.

"Relax, he'll be here in a minute." As soon as I said that we heard a knock at the door and Jess rushed to open it to see Niall. He was wearing black trousers and white button down with the sleeves rolled up.

"Niall you're three minutes late." Jess scolded. He laughed and walked past her to me.

"Sorry. Reservations are in fifteen minutes so we should go, Cara."

"Have her back by ten!" Jess warned Niall. "And keep your phone on Cara!"

"Alright, bye mother." I replied in a sarcastic tone in which Niall laughed in return.

"Where are we going?" I asked as we were walking outside to Niall's car and he opened my door like a gentleman and then jogged in front of the car to get to his side.

"It's a surprise." He replied and buckled in his seatbelt.
