Mia

It had been five days since I saw Niall at starbucks and I had one days to study for my exams. I really needed some help and the only person I could think of was Niall. We had been texting each other a bit over the five days but not much cause I was busy and I didn't want to bother him.

It was a fresh Thursday afternoon and I needed to study for my final English exam that was on Friday. Dad left to go overseas for a week for some business trip and was coming back next Thursday. That meant I was free, but he'd call occasionally and yell at me, threatening me that when he came back he would beat me up. But for now I didn't care cause he wasn't here.

I was studying for my English exam when I heard my phone ring. I picked up the iphone and saw Niall's ID on it. A smile crept onto my face as I put it to my ear.

"Hello Mia"

"hey Niall"

"I heard you have an exam on Friday. Do you need any help?"

"um...I'd love some help, if your ok with it and not to busy."

"Ok. I'll be there in 10 and I'm bringing my guitar with me."

"ok, see you then."

"bye"

"bye"

I sighed putting my phone down. I didn't need to give my address to Niall cause he already knew where I live. Two days after I meet Niall at starbucks, I was walking home from school (because my car was gone for service) when Niall and a guy with curly hair pulled up and asked if I needed a lift home. I found out the guys name was harry and he was one of the band members. He had piercing green eyes and a perfect smile with dimples. Harry was good looking but not as good looking as Niall...

I was lost in thought when I heard someone knock on the front door. I crept downstairs and opened the door to find the blonde hair, blue eyed guy with a guitar smiling at me. He looked adorable.

"hello Mia"

"hey...come in"

Niall made his way through and I closed the door behind him. We made our way upstairs to my room. As soon as I opened the door I realized how messy the room was. There were books everywhere and glasses of coffee placed all over the table.

"um...sorry its a mess" I said softly slightly embarrassed.

He chuckled softly but loud enough for me to hear and said "don't worry about it, my rooms way messier than this love." There was silence for a bit before Niall decided to break it.

"so what do you want help with?"

"um...some English. Its not really my strong point."

By now we were both sitting on a chair next to each other.

It had been an hour since Niall was here and he would help me with my work whenever I needed help. I was getting bored of studying and decided to take a break. Niall was playing his guitar softly when he wasn't helping me.

"I need a break" I exclaimed getting up.

"yes you do love, you've been studying non stop for the past hour." Niall replied.

"I'm gonna go get my guitar"

With that I left to get my guitar from the cupboard in the guest room.

When I bought it back I heard Niall playing to Gimme Love by Ed Sheeran. I didn't want to disturb him so I just stood by the door frame watching him play.

"Give me love like never before,

'cause lately I've been craving more,

And it's been a while but I still feel the same,

Maybe I should let you go,

You know I'll fight my corner,

And that tonight I'll call ya,

After my blood is drowning in alcohol,

No I just wanna hold ya."

Then he stopped and repeated the verse again.

"Give me love like never before,

'cause lately I've been craving more,

And it's been a while but I still feel the same,

Maybe I should let you go,

You know I'll fight my corner,

And that tonight I'll call ya,

After my blood is drowning in alcohol,

No I just wanna hold ya.

He stopped and repeated the verse again. After he sang the verse the third he looked frustrated and had stopped playing. He had his head in his hands and was mumbling something, I couldn't quiet make out.

"niall" I said surprising him.

"oh hey. I see you got your guitar." he replied with a fake smile on his face.

"yeah I did...um...can I ask you something?"

"yeah go ahead" he said with his eyebrows knotted in confusion.

"um...why did you keep repeating the verse to Gimme Love?"

He was silent for a minute before answering.

"um...m-my voice is to irish and management want me to sing with a less irish accent."

This time I was silent. I didn't know what to say. I mean he had a beautiful voice, I don't know why anybody would want him to change it.

I slowly made my way to the bed and sat down next to Niall. He lifted his head and looked me in the eye tears threatening to fall.

"Niall you know I haven't known you for long but I've heard your voice when you sing and its beautiful. Anybody would be a fool to want you to change it. And the thing that makes your voice beautiful is your Irish accent and I'm sure that's why all the fans love you. It makes your voice unique and different." I said softly but loud enough for Niall to hear. After I said that, there was a drop of tear rolling down his soft cheek. I put my hand on his cheek and wiped it away. Before I knew it we were both leaning in closer and closer to each other. I didn't know what to do next...
