As I saw him walking down the sidewalk I just couldn't get what had just happened out of my mind. I opened the door and slightly popped my head out, watching him walk away from my house. He glanced back and I quickly pulled my head back inside. Hopefully he didn't see me. I heard someone running down the sidewalk, I closed the door and locked it, peeking out the window. It was Niall, he stood in front of my house before walking up the drive way. I dropped to the floor and started to crawl towards the light switches. (Childish move I know... Don't judge!) I had just reached them when there was a knock on the door. My mom got off the couch and started to walk towards the door.

"Mom no!" I had whisper/yelled.

But it was too late, she had already opened the door. Niall smiled friendly at her and glanced over her shoulder seeing me crawl into the living room not wanting to be seen.

"Can I speak to Lola?" Wait how did he know my name?

"Lola! Get in here someone wants to talk to you!"

"I'm kinda busy mom..." I lied I had nothing to do.

"Doing what?" She questioned me.

"Uummmm things?" I questioned.

"Ok while she is doing 'things' would you like to come in, until she's done?"

"Sure! If you don't mind,"

"Not at all!" My mom spoke.

I cursed silently to myself, why did she have to get along with him and not my dad!? I sighed, knowing that I needed to face my fear of Niall. Walking into the kitchen I put on a bright smile trying to look happy. When my mom wasn't looking I shot a glare at her. If looks could kill well... Let's just say she'd be dead right now.

"Hey.... Niall, what are you doing here?" I said wearily.

"Hey pumpkin! I just decided to check up on you!"

"Oh well thanks... You going to leave now?" I said with hope in my voice.

"Lola! Don't be so rude! Would you like to introduce me to who this is?" My mother said with a hint of anger in her voice.

"Oh. Ummm this is... Niall." I said to her nervously.

She smiled and stuck her hand out for Niall to shake, he grasped it firmly and shook her hand. I gawked at the sight before my eyes.

"Hello Niall, I'm Miss. McArthur." I scrunched my nose at how she used her maiden name and Miss instead of Mrs. My last name along with my dads is Tomlinson. He smiled at her, and nodded his head.

"Can I talk to Lola outside, Miss. McArthur?" Niall had asked my mother.

"Yes! Of course!"

"Great... Thanks mom.." I had said sarcastically. I had opened the door and walked outside so that I was standing on the porch, Niall had followed me out and closed the door behind him.
