Real (Niall Horan Love Story)

Little Things- Chapter 4

AUTHORS NOTE: HIYA THERE. Yeah so I changed the name because I decided I wanted to go a different way with the plot. Sorry if it confused you! So I've been thinking a lot on where I want to take this, and you guys better be ready. Sorry the past couple of chapters have been kinda boring of not horrible but I'm going to start picking it up. Thanks again for the reads! I LOVE ALL OF YOU SO VERY MUCH. Now on with the story!

MADI'S P.O.V.

This was all so surreal. Running into Niall, getting lost with him in the long hallways of the arena, and to top it off, the girls and I were sitting in a small room with all of One Direction while Niall quietly strummed his guitar and the others hummed along between conversation. This was every fangirls dream.

I noticed Harry kept eyeing Christie flirtatiously. Which she was shamelessly flirting back. *You wouldn't guess she had a boyfriend* I thought to myself. "So Madi, do you play any?" I had grown particularly fond of Louis. More as a friend, unlike Niall. Every once in a while, we would make eye contact and his deep pool of blue would sparkle as he winked.

"Play any what?" *guitar dumbass*

"Guitar?"

"Oh yeah...only a little though." and at that, Louis jumped up, skipped over to Niall, snatched the guitar out of his arms, and held it out to me expectantly. Niall looked confused until he saw what Lou was doing.

"What? No I-I can't..." I wasn't all that great and I didn't feel like embarrassing myself.

"Why not?" Louis wasn't going to take no for an answer.

"I'm no good."

"Whatever! Madi, you're amazing!" Morgan chirped in. I shot her the "you're-not-helping" glare and she put her hands up in mock defense.

"Just a little bit?" Niall pleaded. His puppy face was unbearable. I grabbed the guitar out of Louis hands and strummed a little to get used to the feeling.

"I told you I'm not that good.."

"We haven't even heard you yet!" Niall's accent was so cute. Hell, what wasn't absolutely adorable about the guy? I softly began to pick a familiar tune, not even realizing what my fingers were currently doing.

"Your hand fits in mine like its made just for me, but bare this in mind it was meant to be." Zayn quietly sang along. I didn't know that was what my mind decided to play until I heard Liam start his solo.

"I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile, you've never loved you stomach or your thighs." His voice was amazing listening to it in person. I closed my eyes as the two harmonized through the chorus. I heard a new voice come in when I realized Morgan and Lou were singing together.

"Maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep." I have to admit, the two sounded pretty good together. Then came Harry's turn.

"I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape, you never want to know how much you weigh." Christie was also singing with Harry and the two were making inseparable eye contact. Niall joined Harry in the chorus and I found myself being hypnotized by Niall. His voice was beautiful. I got so caught up in his voice that, when his solo came up, I found myself going right along. He looked up at me and, for a moment, it felt like nothing else mattered. No one else was in the room. It was just me and the amazing guy sitting across from me. We never looked away.

"You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you." The words were true. I loved Niall. Maybe for now it was in a fan way, but I knew I wanted something more with him. And for a split second, I felt like he did too. *You're stupid. Why would HE want YOU. That boy could have anything and anyone he wanted*. The song came to an end but me and Niall still didn't look away. It still felt as though it was just us in the room.

"HELLOOOOOOOOO?" Louis snapped my back to reality by screaming not inches from my face. I instantly felt my cheeks get red.

"AW MADI AND NIALLER SITTING IN A TR-" Louis was quickly shut up by Niall's body slamming into his.

"YOU ASKED FOR IT TOMLINSON." Everyone was cracking up over the two rolling around on the ground but my mind went back to what had just happened. I looked down to see Liam had pulled Niall off a screeching Louis and sat him next to me. I looked up at his big blue eyes and he looked down into mine. He smiled and I couldn't help but smile back as he put his arm around the back of my chair.

"You're pretty good." Niall chuckled as I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever."

"I mean it, and not just the guitar. You've got a nice voice too." I blushed at how sweet he was being.

"You're just saying that."

"No I'm not! Trust me, I would know."

I blushed again as he winked at me. He sure could bring on the charm. Niall leaned in and for a second my heart jumped out of my chest until I realized he was just whispering into my ear.

"You know, I don't always meet fans like this everyday. And I hope that maybe I could take you out, away from these freaks." *Did Niall just ask me on a date?*

"Oh wow...um..." I didn't know how to respond. Niall had helped me through so much, he was my biggest inspiration. All I wanted was to be able to tell him everything he has done for me and now he was asking me out? I must have reacted strangely because Niall's eyes look a little depressed.

"That's ok I-"

"Niall I would love to." I acted on impulse. I didn't really want to be in public with him. I knew there would be angry tweets and words would be said that I wouldn't be able to handle. I have a short temper and when someone says something bad about me, no matter how much it hurts, I will lay them out.

"Really?" Niall's eyes glowed.

"Of course."

"What about a baseball game tomorrow? You told me you love baseball and I've never been to one." I smiled at the thought. A baseball game was my dream date. Then I realized that there would be people there.

"Well yeah...but...what about..." He knew what I was talking about.

"I don't care what they say as long as you don't. We can always do something privet." His voice was comforting.

"Let's start with that. How about a movie marathon at my house tomorrow?" That was another dream date of mine. "We can even watch the game there." Niall smiled from ear to ear and his blue eyes glowed.

"Sounds like a plan."
