“Let’s go grab something to eat.” I told Niall, and we ran to the food court.

Niall picked out a table and we split apart to find what we wanted to eat. I got McDonalds and headed back to the table. Niall was already there.

“Do you think you have enough food there?” I asked him, looking at the filled tray.

“Nope.” He laughed and we both ate quickly, considering we were starving.

We talked for a while, learning new things about each other.

“Now what are we going to do? The mall is closing soon!” I whined.

“In the middle of the day? What kind of mall closes at 2:00?” Niall asked.

“They close on Fridays early, I don’t have a clue why though.” I said.

 “Let’s go see what the boys are up to.” Niall took my hand and pulled me through the crowd to his car.

                Zayn, Liam, Louis, and Harry were there arguing about something.

“Niall!  We don’t know what movie to watch tonight! Break the tie! Half of us want Men in Black 3, and half of us want Romeo and Juliet!” Harry exclaimed.

“Oooh, and who’s the pretty lady over there, huh?” He added, making sure I heard him.

Shoot. I’m blushing again.  Boys make me nervous!

“That’s Emma.  Emma?  What movie do you want to see?” Niall asked me.

“Men in Black! Men in Black! I love that movie!” Okay, maybe that was too much but it got Louis to smile. “Well someone’s happy tonight!” He laughed.

“I’ll make popcorn!” Liam jumped up and ran out of the room.

                Niall picked me up and sat me on his lap. 

“After this we should build a fort.”  Harry suggested.

“Oh my gosh! I love forts! I always built them with my little sister when we were younger.” I said.

“Okay everyone, quiet! The movie’s starting!” Zayn whispered.

I noticed that out of the six of us I was the only one not cringing or covering my eyes at the ‘Scary Parts’

“Emma!  How were you not scared during the movie?” Asked a curious Liam who was still shaking.

I shrugged. “I never have been afraid of anything since my sister was born.  I guess you could say that she made me feel really safe.”

“Okay, time for the fort!” Louis screamed.

We all grabbed blankets and started to rearrange the furniture.  I built a fort with the help of Niall while the others said my fort looked like a castle.

We climbed in and they were right! It looked amazing!

I hadn’t realized I had fallen asleep until I opened my eyes to only Niall in the fort smiling down at me.

“Good morning, beautiful!” He said.

“Oh my gosh, Niall I’m so sorry I fell asleep!” I stuttered.

Niall stopped me. “It’s fine.  I was going to ask if you would stay anyways.”

The house seemed awfully quiet for one that 5 boys lived in.

“Where are the rest of the guys?”

“They went to the pool so we have the house to ourselves for a couple of hours.” Niall paused.

“Emma? I really like you, and we have been hanging out a lot and so… Would you like to be my girlfriend?”

“Of course, Niall.”

“Now, I’m starving!  Got anything to eat?” Niall laughed at my joke.

“You get dressed. Here put these on and I’ll get us some breakfast.” He handed me some of his clothes.

Niall got up and walked into the kitchen.

I got dressed and I wandered into the kitchen, where it smelled really good.

“Eggs, bacon, and toast?  Is that good?” Niall asked as he popped the toast.

We ate the best breakfast I have ever eaten.
