Horan's Runaway (Niall Horan) A.U.

Five

Olivia brings snacks to Niall and sets them on the coffee table next to the pictures. Olivia picks up a picture.
"This one is my great grandmother." Olivia said. "She's great. The sweetest lady I have ever met."
"Where is she now?" Niall asked.
Olivia pointed up.
"Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss."
"What no. She is in Canada. I'm going to go meet her soon." Olivia said.
"Oh that's good." Niall said.
"And that's my great grandpa." Olivia said.
"What's behind him?" Niall asked.
"Oh that's pepper. The sweetest dog I've ever met." Olivia said.
Niall picks up a carrot off the snack tray and dips it in ranch.
"My great grandpa isn't around anymore." Niall said.
"I'm so sorry. What happened to him?" Olivia questioned.
"He was in the military and things just didn't work out the way he hoped." Niall said.
"I'm sorry Niall. It must be hard for you." Olivia said.
"Yeah. It is sometimes. I try not to think of it to much but I like to think of him."
"Yeah I feel you Niall."
"What do you mean?"
"Well I would know how you feel. My cat died. He was the greatest cat ever."
"I'm sorry. What was his name?"
"Presley."
"I'm sorry Olivia."
Olivia and Niall grab a carrot and bite into it at the same time.
"Ahhh!" Niall jumped to the feels on his leg.
"What Niall!" Olivia giggled. "Are you scared of cats?"
"I thought you said your cat died." Niall said.
"When I was 12. I'm 18 now I can afforded to get another cat for myself."
Olivia reached down and picked up a furry cat.
"This is Winnie."
"Like Winnie the Pooh?" Niall asked.
"Yep. She is chubby like Winnie the Pooh."
"Aww that's adorable."
"Niall, how did you get in jail?" Olivia asks Niall. "You don't seem like you'd belong there."
"Don't you read the lies in the paper like everyone else?" Niall jumped off the couch and threw his arms in the air.
"I did but I didn't believe it once I got to know you a little better. I'm seriously not so sure anymore. I don't know if your good or bad. Your personality seems fine."
Niall looks at Olivia like she is his hero.
"You really think I'm fine after what you read about me?" Niall said.
"Yeah. You don't seem like you'd harm anyone. What kind of killer knows Winnie the Pooh and jumps to the feels of cats?"
Niall blushed. "Hey I didn't know that was a cat."
"What would it have been?" Olivia asked.
"You? Maybe?" Niall exclaimed.
"Why would I do that Niall?"
"I don't know." Niall picks the cat up and puts it up to his face. He kissed her head and set her in his lap as he sits back down.
"I love the colors of the cat." Niall said.
"Yeah it has a bunch of different colors. It's a cool cat."
"Hold old is she?" Niall asks.
"She's three." Olivia answered.
"I had a cat up in Ireland. Her name was Jess."
"Was she a good cat?"
"Yes she cuddled with me every night."
"My cat does too."
"Cats are the best!" Niall shouts.
"Yeah they are." Olivia said. "So where are you staying tonight?"
"Probably behind the dumpster by your building."
"Dude, that's cruel."
"It is but I'm lucky it's not freezing."
"But still, a maybe you should just sleep here tonight."
"Thanks Olivia but I don't want to disturb your privacy."
"Niall, you can sleep on my couch tonight."
"If that's okay with you I will."
"It was my idea of course I'm okay with it." Olivia giggles.
"Thanks Olivia. I'm exhausted." Niall said.
"Yeah it's getting late." Olivia said.
Olivia picked the tray up and put it in the kitchen. She rinsed it off and threw away the leftovers.
"I get you some blankets and a pillow."
"Thank you Olivia."
Olivia walks to the mini hall and stands in front of a closet across from her bedroom. She grabs a couple blankets and a pillow.
"Here are some clean blankets and a clean pillow. If you need to use the bathroom it's at the end of the hall right down there." Olivia said.
"Thank you Olivia. Your being so kind for only just knowing me. And you trust me." Niall said.
"Yeah, I try to. I'm trusting you not to kill me in my sleep of steal everything and run off." Olivia said.
"Ha. Yeah I'd SO do that!" Niall jokes.
"Okay. Sleep we'll Niall. I'll see you in the morning."
"Good night sleep we'll!"
Olivia walks to her bedroom and closes the door. Niall lays there in the dark thinking about how happy he is someone trusts him. It only took a day. That's crazy. I need to teach her not to let strange jailers in her house tomorrow. Niall laughs quietly. He closed his eyes and went to sleep.
