Attempting To Trust (Niall Horan Fan Fiction)

Chapter 9

Karla POV

Niall left to let me sleep since I have not really slept well the past couple weeks, between thinking about him and being in excruciating pain fro, the little "adventure" I had almost a week ago.

But I still cannot stop thinking about Niall. We have a date tomorrow, but he will probably be around some time during the day, knowing him.

What will I wear? I have never been much of a "dressy" kind of girl, but should I wear a dress? I tild him no cliches, but that probably will not stop him.

Then again, who knows? I barely know the guy!

But then again, I feel like I have known him all my life.

I woke up the next morning to the sound of my iPhone going off, alreting me that I have a text message.

"Hey, it's Niall:) Wake up!!"

"Two questions?" I text back as quickly as my fingers would allow me.

"You know you really scare me when you ask questions?"

"Good. How did you know I was sleeping, and how did you get my number?"

"Both tough questions. I knew you were sleeping because you sleep a crap ton. But to the second one, all you gotta know is I have my ways xx."

"That makes me really nervous..."

"Good. And what do you think about our date being at 9 tonight?"

I frowned. I could never wait that long. I am going to die without seeing him for that long!

But instead of telling him that, I typed back hesitantly,"Sounds good. What are we doing?"

"Ummm, NO. You're gonna find out. Dress casual and see you tonight;)"

"Alright): See you then."

Dress casual? The suspense is killing me;I hate surprises.

So, to kill as much curiousity and wondering as I could, I decided to distract myself by watching movies and doing as little thinking as possible. Even though it did not completly work, it was better than nothing.

"Hey babe," I typed. "How Casual?"

His text came almost instantly, surprising me, "As casual as you can. Oh, and bring friends."

"Alright, I will be ready."

So, as a result, I frantically called four of my friends: Jerra, Sarah, Celest, and Jenna. All of them said,"yes," and were extremly psyched; Especially Jenna. She has been nagging me for years to actually say,"yes," to a date.

At 8:30, my friends started one by one making their way to my place. Jenna running late, of course.

Jenna was one of my best friends in high school. I was a Freshman when she was a Senior, but she still took me under her wing and helped me fit into America while I helped her improve her soccer skills.

She soon became my best friend and the only person I told personal things to. When I moved back to Ireland to take care of my devil step brother, she came with me, knowing everything that was going on in my life and what I did when I am alone.

She has been having a bit of a hard time lately, though. Her boyfriend of three years left her a year ago and she still really misses him. Yet, she is trying to date other people. She has not been able to find anyone her type lately. All the good soccer players are either taken or insanly unattractive here.

At 8:45, I texted Niall. "Hey Ni, one of my friends is running late as usual. Sorry, Where do you want us to meet you?"

"How about me and the boys meet you st your place and we will wait for your friend together?"

"Alright, but hurry up! Haha"

Jenna walked in and Niall and his friends were right behind her. And I can honestly say that they were very appealing to the eye.

Niall was wearing baggy sweat pants and a tee shirt that supported my soccer team I play on. Most girls would be extremly offended by the wardrobe choice for a first date, but I am not, nor have I ever been, "most girls. I find his outfit extremly attractive.

Naill went through and introduced each of his four freinds.

He pointed to a tall, slim, yet attractive brown haired guy. "This is Louis, one of the funniest people I know."

He stood beside a darker skinned male who was built well, just like Niall. He had the charcteristics of a tall, dark, and handsome guy that some girls can only dream about. Personally, I just like blue eyes. Breaking me from my thoughts, Niall announced,"This is Zayn."

He then pointed to a guy with a shaved head, not to the point of complete baldness, but stil extremly short. His hair was a medium brown, but his eyes were darker than chocolate. Niall smiiled and said,"This is Liam, who is too smart for his own good."

Niall then moved his way to the last boy and put his arm around his waist and smiled, but followed the gaze of the extremly attractive, green eyed, curly haired boy. His eyes had the intensity of green orbs.

Niall punched him in the arm playfully, obviously seeing something he liked, so I also followed the boy's gaze.

Jenna.

The hottie with the intense eyes was checking out Jenna.

But his eyes were not checking her out in a sexual way, but more of a loving gaze.

Checkmate.

Jenna finally looked up after noticing the lingering silence and locked eyes with the brown haired boy, and bit her lip, definitly liking what she saw.

Niall chuckled,"And this? This stud right her is my mate Harry."

With that, Niall walked over and gave me a kiss on my cheek and cunningly whispered in my ear,"I think my mate has the hots for your friend over there."

I smirked and started introducing my friends, but I could not control them, they were giggling at the guys'looks.I did not blame them, they all were gifted in the area of outward appearences. I mean, for real.

But Niall was by far the best out of all of them. Almost reading my mind, he looked at me with his perfect blue eyes and winked at me.

I treid my best not to laugh, but I failed miserably.

I also tried introducing my friends, but they were all too busy looking at Harry and Jenna. The two kids could not look away from each other.

"Well, this is going to be a fun night, don't you think?" Niall asked softly so only I could hear.

I nodded in response.

A very fun night, Ithought to myself.
