~ Chapter 14 - Beauty and the Beast ~

Ioke up to a gentle nudge and groaned, rolling onto my back and pulling a blanket over my eyes.

"C'mon El."

I groaned again, "What?"

"You're up!"

"Yes! I'm up! Now what time is it?" I asked.

"Seven forty two."

"Seven forty two!?" I yelled, pushing the blanket down from my face, glaring at Niall who was adorably sitting on the bed, facing me.

"Yes."

"So, what is this reason on why you woke me up at this ungodly hour?"

Niall rubbed the back of his head, "I'm hungry and I was wondering if you could make me something, or we could go out to breakfast."

I kicked him off the bed.

"Oooof! Ellie!"

"Yeah?" I called sweetly from under the covers.

Instead of a reply, he jumped on the bed and straddled me, holding me to the bed and started tickling me. "You little booger."

I started laughing and tried rolling away from Niall, but since he was holding me down, I had no luck. "I'm no booger!"

"Yes you are!" he replied, his fingers rubbing my sides, making me squirm.

"No!" I giggled and slipped out between his legs and made a dash for the door, Niall being the heavy oaf he was, falling on the bed before he got to his feet, yelling my name.

I ran around the small apartment, Niall close on my tail, laughing the whole time. When I passed by the kitchen, I grabbed a muffin and hid behind the couch, and when Niall went looking around the corner, I chucked the muffin at him, making him create a funny face and fall to the ground in 'pain'.

"Help, help!" he said weakly.

I poked my head out from behind the couch and raised an eyebrow.

"I...think...I...might...need...mouth....to...mouth," Niall whispered between big breaths.

I laughed and crawled out, going straight for his head.

I reached him and leaned in close, my breath making his hair slightly move, "You lucky boy." I leaned closer and pressed my lips gently onto his, upside down.

Niall layed limp for a moment before reaching up and grabbed my head and pushed me back up for a second, our lips dancing on each other.

"You're right. I am lucky. I'm lucky enough to have you."

"Shut up and kiss me, Horan."

He grinned, "Can we get food?"

"Of course."

Without another word, he put his lips on mine again and my body sizzled with thrill.

Before I knew what was happening, I was kissing the air and I was pulled to my feet.

"Time for food!"

I pouted, "Fine. But let's eat here. I don't feel like getting dressed and I don't mind cooking."

"Yes!" Niall said, fist pumping.

"Yes?"

"Yes! It's the first time you'll have ever made me food!"

I raised an eyebrow, "Really?"

"Yes! Now let's go!" He said and grabbed me, throwing me over his shoulder and running into the kitchen.
