{Out of time #35}

_______________

You shuffled your way towards your locker in the crowded halls. This week had been Hell and that was because it was prom week. Prom was in a matter of days and everyone was getting prepared for it, except you. No one had asked you and if an upper classmen didn't ask you then you couldn't go. You hated it.

  Of course your older brother Harry had been able to go, he was a junior while you were a sophomore. Harry offered to take you as his plus one, but you denied and let him take his date. You knew he'd been obsessed with the girl for ages and just had the courage to ask her out, you couldn't ruin his night for him.

You entered your combination into the locker, but without any luck it doesn't open. You'd always had this problem. Your locker never wanted to open, Harry had always had to open it for you. You huffed doing the combination again.

"Hey Y/N." Your brother's friend, Niall, said. You rolled your eyes. "Go away Niall. I'm already have a crappy day."

Niall always seemed to flirt with you, but you didn't take it in the romantic way. You more imagined it being in the fun, messing with you way. "Awe. What's crawled up your pants today kitten?" Niall smirked leaning on the locker next to yours. You huffed as your locker once again didn't want to open. Niall watched you as you began to get frustrated.

  "Here let me." Niall said as he gently scooted you out of the way and dialled your combination in. "How do you know my combination?" You questioned as the locker popped open. "I've opened your locker more than once Y/N." Niall said as he turned to face you, you pondered at for a moment. He had done this many times before, your locker never seemed to open for you.

"Oh yeah." You said as you shoved your books inside the cramped space. Many girlish things alined the inside of your locker, including a picture of you and your brother. "Uh, Y/N aren't you supposed to ride the bus home?" Niall said glancing to the double door that lead outside. "Is that a dumb question Niall? I always ride it home."

"Well you just missed it." Niall panned looking between you and the doors. You let a frustrating huff escape your lips. "Oh great thanks Niall for warning me that my way home is gone." You said with sarcasm lacing your every word. "Sorry, can't Harry drive you? I mean you guys to live together." Niall suggested, you shook your head.

"Nope. He had to take this girl he likes somewhere for prom. Now excuse me while I try and chase down someone still here with a car." You said beginning to jog down the hallway.

"I have a car."

You watched as rain fell onto the windows of Niall's car. To make the day even worse it had began to rain, what was better then getting soaked?

"So proms in two days.." Niall trailed off awkwardly, you sensed he had something to say about it. "Yeah?" You said staring at the rain drops rooting for one of them to win the little raindrop race you had started. "Well, I.." Niall inhaled a deep breath and began to speak again, "What are you doing?"

You looked over by the question. Niall knew no one had asked you yet. "Staying at home? You know I wasn't asked again this year." You looked dumbfounded. Niall gripped the steering wheel until his knuckles turned white. "I know that, what I'm trying to say-" Niall was cut off by his cellphone ringing beside him.

Niall, annoyed , answered the beeping cell.

"Hello?" He asked into the receiver, you glanced at him curiously. "No mom, I was actually trying-" You could hear loud voices coming through his phone. You stifled a laugh. "Okay, bye mom. Love you too." Niall huffed, "Alright mom, goodbye." And with that Niall ended the call. "Everything okay?" You asked curiously with a raised eyebrow.

He nodded. "Yeah you know my mom when she starts to talk. It can go one forever." He laughed nervously. You shook your head in agreement. Before Niall had the chance to speak again you pulled up to your house. "Well I'll see you later Ni." You said before grabbing your backpack from the backseat. "I still gotta help Harry pick a tie for prom so text me what you wanted later?"

Niall let out an exasperated sigh. "Yeah sure."

You smiled and exited the car leaving Niall with the words "Will you go to prom with me?" On the tip of his tongue.
