Have you guys seen the kiss you music video?! OMFG I WAS FREAKING OUT OMG THEY'RE PERFECT.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It was Niall.
"What are you gonna do? You don't scare me!" Josh yelled.
This is going to be bad.
I don't want Niall to get hurt.
Niall walked over and punched Josh in the face.
I closed my eyes. I couldn't bare to watch.
I opened one eye to peak at the fight. Josh had dropped the knife and Niall was trying to grab it. Josh got on top of Niall.
"If you take that knife, I'll hurt your precious Julia." Josh said through gritted teeth.
Yours?
His?
What is going on?
I closed my eyes again.
Before Niall could get to me, Josh shoved the knife into my stomach. My eyes shot open. I couldn't even breathe.
*End of Nightmare*
(**Last chapter I wrote Flashback but I meant nightmare!***)
I woke up and I was breathing really heavy. I was tangled in my sheets.
Ew. I was sweaty... once again.
'Ugh. Another nightmare.' I thought.
I looked over at my alarm clock.
6:34
Awesome.
I felt as if I hadn't slept in four weeks. I threw myself back down.
That nightmare was so weird.
Why was Niall even there?
Why did Josh call me "Niall's"?
My mind raced as I realized it was just a nightmare. And ONLY a nightmare. It wasn't real life. I have to stop over thinking things.
I drifted back to sleep for another hour. When I woke up again it was around 7:45.
I quickly got ready for work following my daily routine.
I walked to work because I don't have a car and I don't want to bother Niall, he's most likely sleeping.
He always picks me up though. As long a he's not sleeping, he said he doesn't mind.
I returned to my familiar spot behind the register, next to Kate.
"Three days!" She winked.
I grinned evilly knowing she had something big planned for my birthday.
That's just who she is. She's an "over-the-top" kind of girl.
And considering that's all I've been telling her about in the past week, I know she's got something up her sleeve.
I'm such a little kid. I ALWAYS get so excited for my birthday. The entire day always feels special. It's weird. I feel like it's the one time every year that I feel like I'm special. I love it.
"So what do have planned?" I winked trying to get some answers out of her.
Zipping her lips with an imaginary zipper, she threw an imaginary key over her shoulder. "I'm not telling." She winked back.
I tried the puppy dog face.
She just shook her head and laughed, focusing on the costumer in front of her.
Darn it. It always works when people use it on me. What, am I not cute enough?
Hmmmm, yeah that's probably it.
I took my spot on the register.
It wasn't too busy today, so me and Kate made small talk.
"What are you doing on Friday? There's this new movie and I really wanna go see it with you!"
Fridaaaay, hmmmmm.... what am I doing on friday?
Oh yeah.
I grinned.
PARTY.
"I have plans." I shrugged and told her nonchalantly.
"WITH WHO?!" She practically jumped on top of me.
"...Niall...." I smiled and looked down.
"OHMYGODJADICJZBDN!" She was screaming and the small amount of people seated at the tables were giving us looks.
"Shhhhh!" I laughed covering her mouth.
"Where are you guys going?!"
"A party... with the rest of the boys."
I couldn't help but let a smile sneak onto my face.
I'll admit it. I was pumped.
"AHDIFKNRNSK!" She shrieked. "Ohmygod I'm going to come over and do your hair and makeup and ohmygod I'm getting ahead of myself. First we need a dress! Then we can see what hair style will look best with the dress and what shade of eyeshadow compliments it..."
I zoned out when the word eyeshadow appeared in the conversation.
Hmmmm, I do need a dress.
A cute sparkly one.
Maybe blue?
Eh, I don't know.
I'll just see what dresses are in the store.
My shift ended and I met Niall in the parking lot.
"How was work?" He smiled.
"Boring. We weren't that busy today."
We were silent on the way back to my flat.
"Guess what's in three days!" I said in a sing-song voice.
"I don't know, ummmm thursday?" He laughed.
"No!" I pouted.
"What?!" He laughed again.
"My birthday!"
Niall turned towards me and grinned evilly.
"Oh, I know exactly what I'm getting you!"
"What?!" I asked.
"I'm not telling." He winked.
Ugh here we go again.
"Pleaseeeeeeeeeee!" I used the puppy dog face.
"Nope." His face was as serious as I think it can get.
Damn.
I'm the most impatient person. Ever. I have to know something NOW and I have to have something NOW and I need to be somewhere EXACTLY when I want to.
"Out!" Niall said as he pulled in front of my flat.
"What, why? I thought we were hang-"
"Later!" He cut me off. "Right now I'm going to get my favorite girl something for her birthday." He grinned and drove away.
I stood there dumbfounded.
HIS favorite girl.
His FAVORITE girl.
Anyway I analyzed that sentence, it still made me jittery. I felt butterflies swarm in my stomach.
I happily opened my door and went inside.
Now I can't wait for my birthday.
I really want to know what Niall is getting me.
By the looks of it, it was something big.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
*Niall's P.O.V:*
"Guess what's in three days!" Julia said.
"I don't know, ummmm thursday?" I laughed.
"No!" She pouted.
"What?!"
"My birthday!"
Shit. I forgot it was her birthday.
It doesn't matter anyways, I have the perfect gift in mind.
Pulling in front of her flat, I opened her door and pushed her out.
I was in a rush to get her gift. Not that I didn't know what to get her, I was excited. Really excited.
I drove to a car dealership that was pretty out of the way.
But Julia is worth it.
I walked around eyeing the shiny new cars.
"May I help you, sir?" The older woman asked.
I told her exactly what I was looking for.
She brought me over to a section of new cars that were what I was looking for, but not special enough for Julia.
She began rambling on about each car.
That is her job, but I zoned out.
I spotted the perfect car.
