Chapter 56

“Wait the minute.” Niall holds his finger up to me and hand me a starbucks cup of lemon tea inside it.

“This is life.” I shake my head and smile at him thankfully.

“Thank God for pizza, right?” He grins and grab a slice as the mozarella sticks to it.

“I thought you would be ordering KFC.” I giggle and grab a slice. I look at him who is laying his back on the fabric and moans out of the pure taste of pizza.

“Well, baby, if you say you want me to drive to KFC,” He chuckles. “then it supposed to be our dessert.” He jokes, still chewing.

“No, pizza is so much better.”

“Oh, yeah.” He giggles.        

“If you will have to pick between me and pizza, who would you choose?” I tease.

He glares at me then takes another bite of it.

We spend our time by eating and eating and Niall eats the majority of it. I groan at how full I am and I lay next to Niall who is staring at the tree. The sunlight somehow illuminated through the little gaps from the leaves as I see him there, gazing at me, smiling. Somehow, I look at him even more attractive than Edward Cullen.

“I told you it’s going to be awesome.” He says as I lay my head on his stomach.

“Why did you even bring your guitar if you’re not going to play it?” I smirk.

“Well, the reason I brought it because my mom told me how talented you are, so, I’ll sing if you sing.” He challenges.

“Fine. What do you want me to sing?”

“I don’t know. Anything.” He shrugs. I get up and bring the guitar to my lap. I start to strum the guitar and think what to sing. I smile at myself knowing what to sing. I start to strum and slide it to a higher octave back and forth, Niall lifts his brows and smiles by the way I strum the intro of I Miss You by Blink 182 then to the verse. I sing along letting the words come out of my lips. He sees me playing and singing in awe as I try myself not to blush.

“I wish this never ends. . .” I strum the guitar as the song should be. “I miss you, I miss you.”

He gazes at me not leaving his eyes from the way I strum and play with different keys.

“Where are you? And I’m so sorry, I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight. . .” I sing in a whole different octave. “Don’t waste your time on me, you already the voice inside my head. I miss you, I miss you. . .” I strum the last key and grin at him teasingly. “Your turn.” I hand him the guitar as he smiles timidly while looking at me. “What?”

“You’re talented.” He remarks. I blush and he starts to pick the string one by one and he starts to sing. “When your lips don’t work like they used to before, and I can’t sweep you off of your feet, will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?. . .” His soft voice coos into my ears sending me vibrations to my heart. My stomach flutters and I can’t help but smile at him. “People falling love in mysterious ways, maybe just listening to the Smiths together. . .” I giggle as he forces to sing the line. He doesn’t even bother to take a look at the guitar but me. “So honey now,. . .” I grin at how talented he is and how he sings like a professional singer and I keep on blushing at the way he sings and looks at me with full of romantic and fondness. “take me into your loven arms, kiss me under the light of the thousand stars. . .” He starts to sing with his veins as I can’t stop looking at his mouth and his luminous eyes. “Maybe we found love right where we are.” And then the strum stops. “What?” He teases.

“You don’t know how my self esteem drastically decreased.” I shake my head.

“We’re both talented.” He remarks as he stands up, offering his hand to lift me up. I do as he gestures and stand up. He grabs a golf ball and the stick that I don’t really know how to call it.

“Niall, what are you going to do now?” I giggle.

“Play golf with you.” He says in an obvious tone.

“I know, but I see no holes.” I look around the grass but he already puts the little white ball after the stick he holds. He looks at me, grinning.

“Just imagine Ohio is this big hole and all you’ve got to do is swing the ball into it.”

“But you’ll ran out of balls.”

“I brought whole bunch of them. Besides, I still have the remaining one for you.” He winks.
