NAINA's POV

It was Monday and there was nothing to do. The boys were having a
'guys day' so I couldn't hag out with them either.

I looked out the living room window for what seemed like the 100th time today. Suddenly Akash walked into the room, I thought he had work?

"Why aren't you at work" I asked him, watching as he sat down beside me.

"We got a day off, something went wrong at the store so they closed it for today" he answered. I nodded.

"I'm bored" I said throwing my head back to rest on the sofa.

"Then let's go somewhere" he replied with a duh-tone.

Just then an idea snapped in my mind.

"The boys invited me to a dance on Friday and I need a dress for that" I pointed out.

"Then let's go to the mall" he said, as we got up and headed out the door.

----------------------------------

"I look bad" I exclaimed, as I stood in the fitting room looking at myself in the mirror.

"Oh come on, you said that to like 5 dresses already, this one has to be good" Akash said from the other side of the door. Sighing I stepped out, immediately Akash started laughing.

"You look hideous!!" He said in between laughs.

"I told you!!" I replied angrily. "I'm never going to find a dress" I admitted sadly. Akash finally calmed down and looked at me.

"Aww, don't say that naina, something has to look good on you" he replied still giggling a little.

"Here" he said tossing he a few more dresses. "go try these on"he shooed me into the fitting room again.

After trying on piles and piles of dresses,I finally found one. It was absolutely stunning. It was simple yet, very elegant too.

I purchased the dress and a few other things. "What do you want to do now" I asked. Just then my stomach rumbled.

Laughing we both headed towards the Food court.

***** Friday*****

The week had gone by really slow and boring. Today would finally be some fun. I placed my dress on the bed and headed towards the bathroom to take a shower.

Getting in the shower, I started thinking. I haven't been to a party in a really long time. I think the last party I went to was in 4th grade when a girl invited me to her birthday party.

Also, I had to be on my guard tonight. I was going to have fun, but I would be alert, on the lookout for him. I was just hoping he wouldn't do something obvious so he could get everyone's attention.

I wrapped a towel around myself and walked back into my room, locking the door behind me. I put on some lotion and started getting myself ready.

I walked towards the dress and stared at it. It was beautiful. It was a light blue color and it flared out towards the bottom. It had dark blue lace that covered some of the top too.

I put on some black leggings and started to strap on some equipment. I grabbed a belt that had a gun, Taser, and some other stuff. I couldn't load up too much stuff because then I would look obvious.

I strapped the belt on my waist and started to put the dress over my head. After putting on my dress I put on some silver high heels and some jewelry. Thank god, it wasn't lumpy or noticeable that I had the belt on under my dress.

I looked at myself in the mirror, I actually looked pretty nice. I sat in front of the mirror and started doing my makeup. Even though I wasnt a big fan of makeup, I felt the need to dress up for this occasion, I don't even know why. The thought of Niall interrupted me.

I couldn't wait to see him!! I wonder how he would look. Amazing as always probably. I couldn't stop admiring how enchanting he was. He was so cute and he had a great personality. After drooling over him in my thoughts, something hit me. I like him.

How did I not know this before?

I was trained to know everything just by a persons actions or behaviors,but how did I not notice this? Was it because it was about love and liking someone? Love. The thought of love made me sad. I could never experience love. If I ever did, tragic things would happen, and I don't want to be the cause of ruining someone's life.

I snapped out of my thoughts when I noticed I only had 15 more minutes to get ready. I finished doing my makeup and hair and quickly walked over to my suitcase.

I pulled out a diamond ring. It wasn't just any ring, when you would press the little button that was disguised as a jewel, a blade would pop out. So if someone tried to tie me up, I could easily cut through it. Slipping it on my finger, I grabbed the next thing

I picked up my sparkly silver hoop earrings that looked fab by the way, but they weren't just any earrings, as you can probably guess, they were hand cuffs.

Since I wasn't going to bring a purse along with me It was really hard just picking the things that I might need.
After getting ready I walked out of my room and saw Akash at the table getting ready to leave.

"I wish you could come" I said as I walked over to him, my heels making little 'click' sounds.

"Me too, but I have work" he said. He turned around and started scanning me up and down. I felt kind of weird just standing there, unsure of what to do.

"Wow" he breathed out. "You look really good, I'm glad we actually found a dress that looks good on you" he said, giggling the last part.

"Hey" I said, "your so mean."

"Well we spent like 3hours looking for a dress, that's 3 hours of my life wasted" he said smiling. I rolled my eyes. Just then my phone buzzed, indicating a message.

Niall- Hey princess, we'll be there in 5 minutes.

I txted a quick ok and turned my attention back to Akash who was apparently talking to me.

"What" I said, not paying attention to what he was saying. He rolled his eyes

"I'm leaving for work now" he said as he put on his coat.

"Make sure to lock the door when you leave" he said walking out the door.

"Ok, have a good time" I said as he shut the door behind him. I took a seat on the sofa, waiting for the boys to come pick me up. After a few minutes the doorbell rang. I got up and quickly ran over to the mirror and looked at my reflection, fixing my hair a little.

My palms were seating and I was really nervous. What if he doesn't like my dress? I opened the door with my shaky hand.

"H-" Niall stoped mid-word and stared at me. As he looked over me, I did the same to him. He looked stunning, in his suit. I was unable to say anything, I was so..... Shocked? What's the word?

"You look beautiful" he said with glowing eyes.

"Thanks" I whispered unable to say anything. why was it so hard to talk?

"You look really good too" I complimented. He smiled and held his hand out for me. I placed my hand in his and a wave of electricity shot through me.

"Let's go to the ball" he said smiling, as we walked down the stairs of the apartment.
