In Love With The Irish One ~(N.H.)

1

"I'm falling in love with you!" He shouts, "I've just been so fucking scared!"

"So you stopped talking to me?!" She asks, furious, with tears falling quickly down her cheeks

"I didn't know what else to do" He admits, voice getting quieter

"Kiss me" she suddenly says. "What?" he asks stupidly

"Kiss me because... because I am falling in love with you too"

So he does. He walks forwards, fast and determined, and their lips meet as their bodies do too. Her arms wrap around his shoulders, pulling him in. His arms go around her lower back, keeping her close. Their lips moved together, slow but fierce, and eventually they pulled apart, They leaned their foreheads together and their noses brushed against each other as they caught their breaths and held each other.

"I'll never leave you" he promises, "I'll never push you away again"

"I love you, Niall" She replies, finally looking up, letting her swirling green eyes meet his blue.

"I love you, too" He admits

Niall's POV

I can't stop thinking about her. I see her everywhere. I hear her voice in the back of my head. I feel her, though she isn't here. Practically everything reminds me of her. I cannot get her out of my damn head and it's really starting to bother me.

She'd call me crazy if she knew I felt this way.
She'd tell me we're obviously just friends.
Maybe she even thinks of me as a brotherly figure.
Certainly, anything but boyfriend material.

"Mate! Hey, Niall?" Louis' voice snaps me into the present.

"Hmm? Yes?" I ask, dumbly. He grins and, apparently, repeats himself. "You alright? Need a wotah?"

I grin at my best friend's accent and shake my head 'no'. "I'm fine. I don't need a wot-ah"

He rolls his eyes at the way I mock him, and he turns to his boyfriend.

"Harreh, he's makin' fun of me!"

"For?" Harry's slow tone asks

"For saying wot-ah" I say again. Harry just grins and looks at our shared best friend aka his boyfriend. Aka Louis.

"Say it for me?" He asks. Louis rolls his eyes and looks away before mumbling "Wotah", causing Harry and I both to grin and laugh a little. I look away as Harry kisses Louis' cheek and says something sweet to him, probably about liking his accent, and I let the two have their privacy...

I move from the couch to the table and sit by Liam. He's concentrated on his phone, and I find myself lost in my thoughts about her all over again.

She's drop dead gorgeous. She's short and pretty and perfect and sweet and kind. Her smile is probably the best thing about her, apart from her eyes. Beautiful green eyes. Fucking beautiful.

"Lad!" Liam's shouting makes me snap my head towards him.

"Quit your shouting, mate! What'd you need?" I respond

"I've been saying your name! What's gotten into you?" He asks, sounding like a mother.

He's supposed to be daddy direction, not mommy direction!

"Nothing. Just thinking, I guess" I respond. I know he doesn't believe me... and when he stands and raises his eyebrows at me, I know that means I am to follow him to the next room so that we can talk in private.

Great. Just great. 

Now I'm receiving silent motherly looks aswell.

Once in a room away from the lovebirds, he asks what's really going on.

"You can talk to me, Niall. You know that" Liam promises. 

I nod a little then take a deep breath.

"Melody... she... she's so perfect" I breath out. He raises his eyebrows and waits for me to continue, so i do. I tell him about her smile, eyes, laugh, kind heart, funny jokes, sassy tone, weird personality, her outfits, her favorite things, conversations we've had in the past, and, finally, I told him the big one. I told him I was falling. Hard.

"Mate... that's a lot. You're sure?" He asks after being silent for a few long seconds

"I am." I admit, "And it's so hard." 

He opens his arms and I happily let myself be hugged. He pats my back and I snuggle into his chest. "You wanna tell her?" He asks quietly, "Or wait?"

"Wait" I respond. He just nods and pats my back continuously since I don't pull out of the hug.

He knows I need this hug. He knows I need support right now. That's why he's here still. That's why he is daddy direction.
