Chapter 7: Niall's pov

"A table for two please?" I ask the waitress standing behind the register once we enter. she looks up at me from her phone and blushes trying to hide either a smile or a fan girl attack. Probably a mix of both.

She pushes her red bangs from her face showing a great pair of light green eyes. They're pretty but there's an even prettier set right next to me. Too bad they're looking down away from my view.

"Follow me," the waitress says graving two menus and leading us two a table at the back of the restaurant. It wasn't anything extravagant. The place was small with very good food and since I sensed that Jasper wasn't one for big crowds this place seemed perfect. There was no one here except maybe like four other people which was sad cause the food was delicious.

As we were lead to our table, Jasper trailed behind me reminding me of a shy child hiding behind their parent and I resisted the urge to hold his hand and tell him there wasn't anything to be afraid of but that would be weird. Right? I mean we hardly knew each other and I didn't want to cross any boundaries.

When we got to our table I pulled his chair out for him and then sat in front of him.

"What would you like to drink?" The waitress with the name tag Aria asked glancing at both of with her note pad in hand. I glanced at Jasper who was biting his lip and having an internal battle with himself.

"Water please," he asked shyly giving aria a small smile then looked back at his menu. I wonder why he's so shy. he's beautiful and has nothing to be insecure about.

"And for you?" Aria asked me, biting the end of her pen trying to look seductive. what's up with her girls these days? First Emma and now this one? I quickly order water as well just so she can leave and I won't have to deal with her feelings afterwards. but I'm staring to think she won't give up with out a fight.

"I'll go fetch your drinks," she says winking at me then going off to get our waters. when she's gone I look at Jasper who is looking at me with a curious look in his eyes.

"What?" I chuckle opening the menu while glancing at Jasper.

"Nothing it's just that, do you know her?" He asks timidly, organizing the utensils on the table so they're aligned and straight. Probably just a nervous habit considering they were perfect before.

"No, she's probably just a fan is all," I answer looking for something to eat. I wasn't very hungry because I had had a coffee and a muffin not that long ago but I didn't want to make Jasper uncomfortable by just watching him eat.

"A fan?" Jasper asked, more to himself than me, scrunching his eyebrows together staring at the black table cloth.

"Yeah. you don't know who I am, do you," I stated more than questioned. I didn't want to seem vain or self centered but mostly everyone in the world knew who I was. Even if it was by mistake people still knew of me.

"Just your name but should I?"

I nodded and shrugged. "yeah, kind of," I began but then it hit me. did I want him to know who I was or who I am. I could tell him about Niall Horan, 1/5 of one direction, a famous boy band or I could tell him about Niall Horan from mullingar Ireland, the youngest of two, that loves his family and likes to sing. I know that sooner or later he'd find out about who I am but I wanted him to know Niall Horan, not Niall Horan from one direction. I don't think Jaspers the kind of guy to use someone for their money but what if he was?

Waiting for a response, he looks at me with curious eyes and the longer I look into them, the more I begin to trust them.

"I was in a pretty famous boy band," I answer with a half smile. He seems to be processing my response then looks at me with a tilted head and crooked smile.
