The moment his fingers touched my face and wiped away my tears, I felt electricity zip through my whole body. His showed so much worry in them that it made my stomach twist in knots. I know he's just worried because I'm his best friend's brother, but...

No... I couldn't let myself think that way. Then he dropped the bombshell on me! Who was he talking about? Who said Liam would fail? I just couldn't believe it. I mean, he's from what Greg and Louis have said he's like super smart. He's an awesome football player. I've seen seen him play plenty of times,when Harry and I went to watch Greg and Lou. He was super fooking handsome. Yeah, no way this guy would ever wanna be with someone like me.

We headed out the door and started towards Liam's truck. He had huge smile on his face, which caused me to smile. What was he so happy about? Oh that's right, his truck is his "girl" Jesus, why did I just feel jealous of a damn truck?

He walked to the passenger side of the truck and opened the back door and put my bags in. Then he opened the front door and held my arm as he helped in.

"Did you remember to get your pain pills, Ni?" Liam ask as he looked at my hand. It really felt a a lot better today, that was for sure.

"Yep...took one this morning after breakfast and packed them in my bag, mum," I said as he looked me up and down. He threw his head back and laughed. God his laugh moved right through my body and made my cock ache between my legs. I ever so slightly palmed my crotch to ease the throbbing. Just then he looked at me with that damn crooked smile. He took his finger and tapped my nose.

"You're so damn cute, you know that?" He looked like he wanted to lean down and kiss me. Yes! Yes! Come on! A little more...more....just a little closer...

"What's your favorite dog?" Liam asked as he pulled back and stood away from the door.

"Um?" What the hell? That just came out of nowhere. Holy shit! Here I thought he was thinking of kissing me and he's thinking of....dogs?

"Think about it!" He said as he smiled and shut the door.

I watched him walk around the front of the of the truck and there went those hands through that beautiful hair. I'm pretty sure he does that when he's nervous or upset. God it's one of the sexiest  things I've ever seen. What's he nervous about?

Dogs? I'm so confused by this guy.

Liam jumped in and looked over at me. Oh holy shit, there's that beautiful smile and he was just staring at me.

"What is it? What's so funny?" I asked as I smiled back at him.

"Nothin', you just look damn good sitting in my truck, sweetheart, that's all!" Liam said with a laugh.

"Oh ok!"

Liam started the truck and I was silently praying "Truck Yeah" wouldn't come on. Please god, please. Just then Daughtry's "Every Time You Turn Around" came screaming over the speakers. Oh thank god!

"You like Daughtry, I'm guessing, from the smile on the your face," Liam said before he started to back out of the driveway.

"Yes! I love them. Love this song too. But honestly.I was praying "Truck Yeah" wouldn't come on. I'm not sure what I would've done to you had if you started that song," I said as I looked over at him.  He jammed on his brakes and just stared at me.

"Oh thank the fook I'm not the the only one! Holy shit, I wanna delete that song from his phone. I'm so sick of it," Liam said as he looked at me with the most serious look on his face. I had to start laughing.

"I've thought the same thing. I swear every time he starts it I just wanna haul off and hit him,"  I looked at my hand was a bit still swollen.

"Great minds think alike, Ni!" Liam said with a laugh as he backed out and headed toward the school.

That was the third time Liam had called me Ni. Tons of people call me Ni. So why when he said it did I get butterflies in my stomach? The same way I  did when he called me sweetheart.

"Great Dane," I said when the silence in truck was starting to get to me.

Liam looked over at me with a confused look on his face. "What?"

"You asked me what my favorite dog was. It'd probably have to be a Great Dane I think," I said.

"I've never had dog but if I had one I'd want a Great Dane." I said as looked out the window,not sure why tears were starting to build in my eyes.

"Oh yeah, right, the dog. You've never had a dog? Wow... boy or girl?" Liam ask turning in to school parking lot.

"I think I'd want a boy. Yep, someone to watch over me and protect me and love me like there was no tomorrow," I said as turned and looked at Liam. He was just staring at me....again. He did that a lot. There went the hand through the hair.

Shit, why did that turn me on so damn much? I moved around in my seat to help with the ache.

"You know you don't need a dog for that, sweetheart. I pretty sure you could find someone who is more than willing to take on the job," he said with the sweetest smile. I so badly wanted to ask if he wanted to apply for the open position. Ha! Yeah right. He couldn't even kiss me.

"What would you name him?" Liam asked has he jumped out of his truck and ran around the front to open my door. I bet he has guys falling all over him. Well, I wasn't gonna be one them, or so I kept telling myself that.

"Um, let's see...I I'd name him...Watson," I said with smile on my face. Yeah...I liked that. It was a good for a dog. Liam let out a laugh that caused me to stop and look at him.

"What the hell's wrong with Watson? That's a good strong name and it's country but not to country and it'd fit a dog of that size.

"I can't believe you're laughing at my name choice. Some friend you are Liam Payne!" I said hitting him with my good hand.

After what seemed like forever he stopped laughing.

"Watson? You want to name him Watson? How the hell did you come up with that name, Niall" Liam ask as we started toward the school. "Uh,uh , for more information you have to give to receive. Theirs reason, but what kind of dog do you want? Girl or boy? And Name?" I say with smile. He smiled that fooking crooked smile and reached down and took my left hand in his right hand. Did he realize we were holding hands? My god the butterflies in my stomach were going crazy.

"Ok that seems fair, I'd get a Siberian Husky a girl and name Loki." He says 

"Oh yeah because when someone says Loki I think of a girl." I joke rolling my eyes.

"Ok smartarse I held up my end of the deal," he smirks.

"Well if you must know, one time Greg took me on on a drive out to the country, and I saw the name Watson was on a mailbox, and I don't know I just liked it," I said with a shrug of my shoulders.

"Do you like the country? I mean, would you ever wanna live out in country or are you a city boy?" He ask bumping his shoulder into mine. Good god this contact was driving me crazy.

"No,I'm not a city boy. Well, I mean I am 'cause I grew up in the city. But I want nothing more than to get away from the city and live in a small town with lots of land, and I'd love have beautiful ranch-style home and go outside every morning and feed the chickens. I wanna hear nothing but nature. No cars, no people, no horns, no freaking people blowing the cigarette smoke in my face. I wanna be able to look up into the sky and see the millions of stars every night. I've never seen what a true nighttime sky looks like with all the stars. I'd love that.

I stopped at the side door to the school and looked back at Liam. He was standing there with a huge shit eating grin on his face. I tilted my head to look at him. What the hell was he thinking? He sure did seem happy. Huh. I noticed as soon as I started talking about wanting to live in the country he dropped my hand.

Liam cleared his throat and just shook his head. "Shall we get this over with, sweetheart?" He asked as held the door open for me. I'd never get tired of this. Zayn never once held the door open for me or opened the car door for me ... nothing. Liam was complete 180 from Zayn.

"Yes! One step closer to my new life as a college student, I said as we headed down the hall.
