Chapter 18

          Alex's POV

I walked out of the elevator with Niall and walked through the lobby.

"You really do look gorgeous, love." He said, kissing my cheek. I blushed and hid my face in his neck as he put his arm around my waist.

"You're so adorable. Don't be shy." He chuckled, tilting my face up a bit.

"There's that beautiful face of yours." He mumbled, looking in my eyes. I smiled and he kissed my nose.

There was a shutter noise and we both looked towards it and saw a fan. Niall smiled at her and waved her over.

"Hi there, love. What's your name?" He asked her. She looked ready to pass out.

"Melanie." She said, wide eyed. He laughed at her expression and opened his arms for a hug. She squealed and hugged him tight. I laughed and stepped back a bit.

"This is amazing! I can't believe I'm talking to THE Niall Horan!" She said, about to cry.

"Don't cry! No crying, please!" He pleaded. I laughed and they looked at me .

"Sorry." I said, but I made that weird noise where you're trying I hold back a laugh and it stars coming out anyways, you know? Yeah I did that and they started laughing, too.

"Who're you?" She asked. Not in a rude way just curious.

"I'm Alex." I said. She looked between me and Niall with a smug grin. "Niallerrrrr!" She said wiggling her eyebrows. He blushed and looked at her with a deer in the headlights look.

"I'll leave you two be now. Have fun on your daaaate!" She teased before giving Niall a hug and then giving me a quick hug.

Niall took my hand and pulled me out of the lobby with a beet red face. I giggle at him and skipped next to him with a childish grin.

He laughed and swung our hands between us. We got to the car and he opened the door for me.

"Why thank you!" I giggled and got in. He closed the door and got in on the other side.

We drove for awhile until we reached a beach. He helped me out of the car. I smiled as we walked down to the sand.

"Hold on real quick." I said and I stopped and took my heels off. And ran back to the car. I checked my reflection real quick.

My hair was very curly, more than it was naturally, and it was a bit poofed at the top and my bangs were left out and part of my hair was pulled back and braided in the back.

My makeup was thin eyeliner around my eyes and lots of mascara, and a little bit of eye shadow.

 The dress was amazing but not all out. It was a midnight blue silky dress that was short but not super short and the skirt was loose and pretty and the top was tight and had some jewels around the waist and by the one strap it had.  The shoes were strappy black heels that I was not a huge fan of. I'm more of a heeled boot type girl.

Any-who, I ran back to Niall and smiled sheepishly. "Sorry." I said. He laughed and took my hand.

"You look beautiful. Don't worry." He said as he lead me towards a little gazebo that was set up.

I stopped and stared at the set up. It was amazing. There was candles everywhere, rose petals scattered around and a table set up with two platter things with lids over them and it was set up with beautiful silver wear and cups.

A curly haired waiter stood beside the table smiling.

"Harry!" I cried, laughing. I followed Niall up the steps and he pulled out my chair for me.

We sat down and Harry uncovered the plates for us. The smell of spaghetti and garlic bread filled my nose.

"Oh my god. I love pasta." I said breathing it in. They laughed and Harry poured us some 'wine'. It was just grape juice. Then Harry walked over to a stereo and started playing some soft, slow music for background noise.

"This is amazing, Ni!" I said, my smile growing. He blushed a bit and smiled, "thanks. I wanted to make sure it would be perfect. I know it's not much but...." He trailed off.

"No! This is the best! I'd rather have this than any old fancy dinner place any day. This is perfect." I said, blushing at how much I'd just rambled.

He laughed and we talked about life as we ate.

"So. You're turning 18 on Thursday huh?" He asked. I nodded, "Yeah! I can't wait 'cause then I can move the rest of my crap into Izzy's place and then it's just gunna be a party everyday!" I said excitedly.

"I love how close you and her are. Me and the lads actually thought you two were sisters before we started talking to you. " he said.

I laughed, "Well, we might as well be. But yeah...." I trailed off, the smile not leaving my face.

"C'mon. Let's go back to the hotel and change. We're not done yet." He said.

"What?" I laughed as he took my hand and lead me back to the car. He just smiled at me and opened my door.

————————

When we got back he changed into dark jeans and a black v-neck and some Supras.

I changed into black jean shorts, a white T-shirt and the pair of red, black, and white Vlados I bought. I brushed through my hair and and did a loose braid over my right shoulder, and put my glasses on.

I walked out and I snuck up behind Niall and jabbed my fingers into his sides. He yelped and jumped making me laugh super hard. He playfully glared and me so I giggled and held his wrists so he couldn't poke me or anything.

"You're lucky you're cute and we have more to do. But I will get revenge." He said with a mischievous smirk. I stuck my tongue out and he laughed.

We walked back outside and we walked until we saw bright lights and carnival noises.

"Whoa! I've never been tons carnival before!" I said looking around in awe.

"Really?! Oh man you've missed out! C'mon!" He said. He bought us tickets to get inside and I felt like a little kid at Disneyland.

I heard Niall laugh and he put his arm around me, pulling me closer.

We ate a bunch of food and played games. He won me a huge stuffed panda! And the last thing we did was go on the Ferris wheel, and he kissed me at the top.

---------------------

"I had so much fun tonight, Nialler. Thanks for the amazing date." I said, turning to face him in bed later that night.

"Anything for you, gorgeous." He said.

"Goodnight, Nialler." I whispered.

"Goodnight, Lex." He kissed my forehead.
