The Lucky One

Chapter 2

(NIALL'S POV)

As I sped into the living room, I could hear Jess laughing. "NOT MY PIZZA!" I whisper-screamed to Abbie. She just smirked at me.

"Let the fun begin!" Jess said as she jumped on the couch beside me. We all laughed, but just sat, the only noise coming from my eating pizza.

"I wouldn't exactly call this fun," Abbie said. "The only thing to watch is Niall eating; and it's not fun. Not even interesting except for the fact of how much he can eat." "Well den fire up da TV and Wii conshole," I said with a mouthful of food. I could hear Jess laughing as Abbie got up and grabbed the remote.

"Okay.... Just dance, orrrr... Spor-" "Just dance!" I said immediately. Finally I swallowed my last bite and licked my fingers while taking the pizza box to the trash. "As you can see, we all dressed in jeans and T-shirt, so let's do something fun," I said while jumping over the back of the sofa, landing beside Jess.

She was so beautiful, and I hoped she knew that. Being friends with One Direction could mean being practically worshipped, or hated on big time. I didn't know which one she got the most.

"Alrighty, I say Jess and Niall go first seeing I was the one who got up and got the game ready," Abbie suddenly announced. "Would you take this dance, fair lady?" I said in a posh accent while turning to Jess. "She blushed and said, "Why yes, what a gentleman!" Then we both burst out laughing.

"Well then get up and do it!!" Abbie complained. "And I get to pick," she added with a smirk.

(JESS' POV)

I gave her a warning death glare. Luckily, she didn't pick a couple dance that I had to get up real close to Niall. I knew I'd turn as red as a beet...

After we danced about two dances, it was Abbie's turn, and this time, Niall and I picked. We gave her probably the hardest dance on the game, which resulted with many laughs and 2 stars out of 5.

After a few more wii games, we switched the lights off and put on a movie. Before either of us knew it, it was almost supper time, so I invited the rest of the boys over for dinner.

I made spaghetti, with toasted garlic bread. It was a huge pot, but I was pretty sure there wouldn't be leftovers, especially seeing what a food-lover Niall was.

Luckily, just Liam, Harry, Louis, and Zayn came, and not Paul. I don't think there'd be enough with Niall around. We joked, and laughed and told stories at the table. It was truly a lot of fun.

"So guys!" I said, "I've just heard FOUR..." I teased them. "Well get on with it!! What do you think?!" Louis pressed on. "IT AMAZING!! Like how could you have done any better than Midnight Memories?! But obviously you did, so I truly am blown away. It's perfect guys," I ended with a smile.

"We're so glad you like it!!" Liam said, "and we're hoping everyone else will thank the same." "I know they will," I replied.

Around 9:00, the boys and Abbie finally left. Again, when I hugged Niall I felt butterflies in my stomach. What was it?? I started to feel a little different around him recently. Could I possibly be.....?? No, he's just my friend! Everyone knows that.... But maybe Abbie has noticed that I'm acting different? I decided to sleep on it.
