Chapter 8

I'm driving back home when my thoughts get to me.

Do I like him?

What are my feelings toward him?

Does he feel the same way?

Yes, he is very attractive but we are only friends.

I think that's how it's gonna be.

But part of me is sad because of it.

The other part wants us to be "more".

But what is more?

As I drive into the driveway I immediately go to the kitchen and grab a water.

Before I know it I'm laying in my bed falling fast asleep...

~~~~~~~~~~~

" Alex?" I feel someone shake me

" Alex, are you awake?" I hear the Irish accent that I have learn to adore.

" Hmmm?" I mumble

" It's 6:00. I wanted to take you some place" he says softly

" You know what you should do?" I mumble turning over

" what?" he asks

" Cuddle with me" I laugh lightly

" What?" His smile is growing by the second

" You heard me" I say stretching out my arms

He soon kicks off his shoes and scrambles to the other side and jumps in. I lightly laugh and he just smiles.

Soon enough he puts his arm around my waist.

Jesus.

" So" he starts

" Yes?" I respond

" How is school?" He asks

" Fucking terrible" I mutter

He turns me over and looks at me deep in thought.

" What's wrong?" He asks

" I got written up today and I'm pretty sure I failed a test. My friends are mad at me besides Harry. I don't know about Keirstyn. She was pretty pissed I didn't go to the mall. I'm just tired of stuff" I say

His fingertips are tracing up and down my arm and all I feel is sparks.

" I'm sorry" he says

" It's just life" I say

" Yet it can be stressful" I turn back around

Before I doze back to sleep I feel him kiss my neck and saying

" I'll always be there for you" he whispers

Niall's POV

I wake up the next morning and I realize I'm still in Alex's bed. I look over at her and she looks so...

Peaceful..

Heavenly..

Her brown hair over her shoulder, her eyes closed, her lips slightly parted.

She looks like an angel.

I carefully get out of bed and go to the bathroom. As soon as I get out she's sprawled all over the bed. I smile to myself.

She isn't hot.

She's beautiful.

Alex's POV

After waking up and spending a few hours with Niall I get a message from Keirstyn asking to hang out. I decide to say yes because she's my best friend and I haven't spent a lot of time with her lately.

" I'll be going. I'll talk to you later?" He says raising an eyebrow

" Yeah" I smile

Within 15 minutes of him leaving Keirstyn shows up with movies and food.

30 minutes into I decide to talk

" You aren't mad at me right?" I blurt out

She turns her head slowly

" No because I know what's going on. Even though I really wanted to go to the mall with you" she says almost smirking

" What?" I ask

" Irish boy, Alex" she says

" We're friends" I say quickly

" I know you like him" she says with a smirk

" No!" I say

Yes...

" Whatever Alex. Harry saw a glimpse of him when he came up and asked about you" she says

I give a questionable look

" Yeah, the day you didn't come to school he showed up to the school. He was looking for you. Was he your ride home or something?

She says

" Yeah" I say

" When he came up to me asking where you were he looked pretty frantic" she says while going into the kitchen making another bag of popcorn.

" Oh"

Soon enough midnight comes and Keirstyn is fast asleep. While she's sleeping I'm reading my book when I hear something against my window

I carefully look and find a figure outside my window.

Hopefully it's Niall.

" Alex!" He yells

" Be quiet! Keirstyn is sleeping" I hiss

" Come down here" he says a bit quietly

" Fine" I carefully climb out of my window and find a tree I can climb down from.

Soon enough I'm on the ground.

" Hey" I smile

" Hey" he smiles

" What are you doing?" I ask

" Coming here to see you" he says while wrapping an arm around my waist and pulling me close to him.

I just blush and look down.

" Is somebody blushing?" He giggles and tilts my chin up.

" Maybe" I giggle back

Soon enough he nuzzles into my neck and we just stand there.

" What were you doing before you came here?" I say

" Nothing" he mumbles

" Was the poor irish boy lonely?" I giggle

" Not anymore" he says while crashing his lips onto mine

I soon wrap my arms around his neck and in this kiss it wasn't filled with mistakes..

It was filled with passion.
