Finding Me (Sequel to Ava,The World, and Niall Horan)

3: I needed some leverage....

“Niall!” I heard Louis yell at Niall through the phone. We were both still sitting in the Taxi, driving towards Louis flat. We called to say we were on our way when Harry told us they had left the pier at around six. We took too long, and they got tired of waiting. It was now 8 and I really should start getting home. I tried insisting, but Niall manipulated me into going to Louis’s since El’s going to be there. Apart from the boys, I missed her the most.

“Why did you guys take so long!?” I heard Louis shout at Niall. He called about ten minutes ago, and we had lovely conversation, but then Niall started speaking to Louis alone, and suddenly the Hulk was unleashed.

        I worry that they’re hiding something from me. As if they want to protect me from, whatever it is they can’t say, but they keep up a fake façade about how everything’s fine now that I’m back.

“You know she’s going to be mad about this!” Louis shouted at Niall even more, but Niall seemed strangely used to this.

“I know,” Niall muttered. I pretended to play ‘Flow’ on my phone, but I kept getting the puzzles wrong.

“Do you want her to break up with you?!” He shouted again.

Silence.

“Oh my god, you want Amy to break up with you don’t you?” He asked. He laughed a bit at that, and I couldn’t help but smile.

So he doesn’t love her after all.

“I never said that,” Niall said while laughing.

“So you want to stay with her?” Louis clarified.

“And why are you smiling?” I heard Niall say to me. My smile fell and I chuckled to clear the air a bit.

“I uh…” I stuttered and tried to come up with a lie, “I finally killed all the piggy’s…” I muttered.

“You’re playing ‘Flow’, not Angry Birds. You don’t even like flow!”

“We should treat games equally…?” I stated but he simply laughed at me.

“Sure….” He muttered, but we kept starring at each other. I felt the need to kiss him. Just one last time. Just to remember what it was that I missed out on these past nine months…

“I’m gonna take a nap…” I said finally looking away from him and adjusting my head onto the door. I made sure not to fall asleep on him.

“Don’t; you snore,” he teased.

“So?” I said with a laugh, “You fart in your sleep.”

“You love my farts,” he teased and looked at me; challenging me as if he was about to rip.

“Don’t you dare!” I said while laughing at our fond memories of falling asleep next to each other.

I missed him.

He laughed at me and smiled, “You talk in your sleep!”

“Well you…” I started but I ended up laughing, “Don’t you know it’s rude to leave the person on the other line talking?” I said changing the subject. Niall simply laughed at me, and went back to talking to Louis. Lucky for me Louis talks really loud on the phone.

I closed my eyes and tried to nap, but I couldn’t help but listen with my eyes closed.

“I heard all that,” Louis said to Niall.

“Heard what?”

“Oh nothing… So, Ava talks in her sleep and snores? You know this how?”
