A Different Life!

Chapter 32!

~Niall's POV~

"Ryleigh!" Ary screams as Ryleigh walks into the room. They engulf eachother in a hug before walking over to the rest of us. Ryleigh greets Harry with a kiss and hugs the rest of us. "So what we doing?" She asks. "Putting up the Christmas stuff" Liam says. "fun fun" Ryleigh says and throws her bag on the couch. Ary dashes off somewhere. She comes back a few minutes later playing with her camera. I laugh and walk up behind her. "Boo!" I whisper in her ear. She jumps and turns around. "Gosh Niall don't scare me like that" She laughs. I laugh and kiss her temple. We walk back over to where everyone is starting to put up Christmas decorations. Ary and I grab boxes that are meant for the staircase and head over there. "Ok seriously you guys have way to much Christmas stuff." Ary laughs as she opens the box she had grabbed. I laugh and open my box. We pull out the lights and garland. Ary hikes up the stairs to start weaving it through the bars of the railing. "Uh...Niall...none of the lights work" Ary says. "What!" I say suprised. "Your going to have to go buy more" Liam says from behind me. I groan and grab my wallet off the table. "C'mon Ary" I say and walk out the door. "Wait I might be able to fix them." Ary says. "What how?" I ask coming back inside. I close the door and walk up the steps to where Ary is. "Well sometimes if one light burns out the rest of the lights will quit." She explains as she fiddles with some of the little light bulbs. She pulls one out and the rest of the lights start to work. "Ti-da!" She announces. I kiss her cheek and hug her. "I love you!" I yell. She giggles and goes to throw the dead lightbulb away. We continue to put the lights around the railing and all the little decorations on the ledge along the stairs. "Guys we're starting on the Christmas tree!" Zayn yells from the living room. Ary and I walk down the stairs into the living room. Liam and Louis pull open the Christmas tree box. We set it up and put all the lights,garland,and ornaments on. Ary smiles at me after we finish. "It's so preeetttyyyy!" Ryleigh says like a little kid. We all laugh and sit on the couch. "Let's do something fun" Ary whispers to me. "Like what?" I ask. "We should go shopping and to Nandos" She says. I smile and get up. "Lets go!" I say and pull her up. "I gotta change!" She says. I laugh and watch as she runs upstairs. She comes back down wearing jeans and a green Nike hoodie. "Ready?" I ask. She nods. "We're going shopping for a while" I tell everyone. "Have fun be careful" Liam says. I roll my eyes and walk back to Ary. I grab her hand and we walk outside to the car. We get in and I start to drive towards all the stores. I pull into a parking place and park the car. "Remember when we were here before. That was so fun" Ary laughs. I smile and take her hand as we start walking down the street. "Where do you want to go first?" I ask. "Jack Wills" She says bluntly. I laugh and we continue walking down the street. It's cold out here. Ary shivers next to me. "Guess what we're buying first" I say. "what?" she asks. "Sweatshirts" I laugh and wrap an arm around her shoulders. She smirks as we continue walking. We finally make it to the store and walk in. "It's so warm in here" Ary mumbles satisfied. I smile and we walk towards the clothing sections. Ary and I go straight for the sweatshirts Ary pulls a navy zip-up hoodie off of the rack and smiles. "It looks so fuzzy and warm" She says and hugs it. I laugh. "Ok your getting it" I say and walk towards mens sweatshirts. I grab a red zip-up one and turn around to ask Ary's opinion. "How about this?" I ask. "Yes!" She says. I laugh and follow Ary to some t-shirts. "Ok I seriously don't know what to get Ryleigh for Christmas" Ary says. "And you think I would know what to do about that?" I say. Ary throws her head back and groans. "I don't know!" She says. I laugh and wrap my arms around her waist. "I'll just go some other time" She says. I laugh again and pull my arms from around her waist. "Niall what would you think if I joined that other team that I played with? They asked me if I wanted to join" Ary asks. "I think it would be cool." I say. Ary grabs my arm and drags me to the checkout. She quickly pays for both of our sweatshirts and drags me out of the store. "Ary what are you doing?" I ask. "We need to talk" She says. Oh crap what is she going to say. "Uh...ok" I mumble. Ary pulls me into Starbucks and sits down I sit down next to her. "Do you seriously think that it would be a good idea?" She asks. "Yea" I say. "But with you in the studio and me in football practice and games, will we ever have time to talk and hang out?" She asks. Will we? Or will we be to busy? I don't want to take away football away from her just because I want to hang out with her. "Niall?" She asks. "I don't know it's worth a try though if it doesn't work we could figure something out" I say. She nods and slouches down in her seat. I take her hand and pull her up from her seat as I get up. "C'mon" I say. We walk out of Starbucks and out onto the street. We walk back to the car and get in. "Where are we going?" Ary asks. "Home" I say and start the car. "But we just started shopping" Ary says. "and we were going to go to Nandos" She says. "I know but I kinda wanted to just watch a movie. We can watch it in my room where hopefully no one will bother us" I say hoping she doesn't get angry. "And this is why I love you" She says. I laugh and drive home. I know for sure I'm in love. All those feelings that I had were something important.
