I find myself at a gloomy rainy location. I feel angry and frustrated for some reason. "Am I not good enough?" I say to the man standing in front of me, while tears streaming down my face. The man shuffles his feet and refuses to turn around.

"I'm sorry Eve." he says, trying to fight off emotion in his voice. I feel someone's arms wrap around me. A hand wipes my tears away. I see a faint smile on his face as if trying to comfort me.

"Please stop crying Eve. I'm here." he says softly.

The image clears up and suddenly I find myself in the dark kitchen with the moon shining in once more while Niall embraces me.

"Please stop crying Eve. I'm here." Niall says forcing a smile. Was that a dream? It was way too realistic. Niall smiles broadly at the sight of me being awake. The moonlight iluminated his face perfectly, yet despite that the pain I felt from the dream still lingered. I felt horrible.

"Eve, you want to talk about it?" he asks me. I nodded then told him about my horrifying dream. How the dream left a lingering feeling.

"I-I felt so alone, like I wasn't good enough." I whispered. "Have you ever had that feeling that you cant live up to what people think of you? You can't live to your dreams?" Niall reached for my hand and looked me right in the eyes.

"You are good enough for me." he said sincerely. Once more I found myself in his embrace. I never wanted to leave him. We stayed like that for a while.

"It was only just a dream." Niall sings, lulling me back asleep.

Niall POV

"SNAP!" was the sound that I myself waking up to. I wake from my peaceful slumber and see that the door was finally open. In the short time we had been here, Eve and I had woken up for a midnight snack meaning Eve eating an entire cake and me eating all the chicken. I try to get up from where I was but then it dawns upon me. Eve was still fast asleep. I gaze upon her beautifully serene face. What should I do? Her parents are probably worried and we've got to get out of here and worse,

We ran out of Nandos.

I hear something dinging and see that it's Eve's phone in her pocket. It was in a cute pink Rilakuma case. On the display screen it had no service and the dinging was from a Pokèmon game saying

"Pikachu has been fully rested!"

Figures Eve would do that play thatI saw in the bottom right corner that it had a camera. I thought for a moment. The chances of being able to do this was low do I decided to execute my plan.

I clicked the record button but it wasn't working.

"Ah! How do you work this thing?" I said out loud to no one in particular. I look at the screen and It said 'recording'. I mentally slap myself for that.

"Oh it's on! Hi Eevee! It's everyone's Favourite leprechaun, Niall. Never forget, you're beautiful and weird at the same time; and that's why I like you!" I say. I point the camera onto Eve with my head in the shoot.

"Look! You're asleep. When you wake up you'll be in your house, magically." I laughed at my own corniness as I turned off Eve's camera. I also took a picture of myself with the sleeping version of her and set it as her iPhone background. Silly Eve, you should put a password! I scooped her up into my arms bridal style and walked out. Surprisingly, Eve wasn't at all heavy. She was light as a feather. She ate so much for a girl her size, I honestly thought that she would be heavier. Well, she doesn't look heavy. She's pretty fit.

Eve was a really heavy sleeper, she didn't seem to wake up at all. While I walked out, I heard something that sounded like a giggle. I look down at Eve's serene face to see the sound wasn't coming from her. It was Saturday, and there's no one at school except for us. Meaning...

It was a ghost!

I dashed through the hallway screaming like a little girl when a chair seemingly came out of nowhere causing me to trip over it. Eve flew out of my arms as I ran to prevent her from colliding with the ground. Unfortunately, I failed at that as she landed on carpeted floor. It's amazing how she's still asleep. It's almost like she's..

Dead.

Oh my gosh! Is Eve dead? Niall, remember health class, remember it! First check for a pulse. But where is the pulse?! Is it in her brain? I check her forehead to find out that it had no pulse. This is bad! She doesn't sound like she's breathing either. Well, this is the last resort. I lean over her face and crash our lips together. Is this how CPR goes? The laughter seems to become even louder as I disconnect our faces.

"You're a good kisser Aladdin." Eve giggles. Good, she's not dead! Now I can get out of this place, I think I'm going delusional. The laughter sounds like Louis and Eleanor! They've probably already left, it's got to be a ghost!

Even though I feel like a hero for saving Eve, I have a feeling that I will forever regret this moment in life.

I ran out of the school as fast as I could making sure that Eve wouldn't fall out of my arms and dashed toward her house.

"Ahh! Ghost!" I yelled. The giggles got louder as I picked up speed until I got to her house. I rung the bell and found myself face to face with Eve's mother.

"Well, did you use protection?" Mrs.Delacy said. I flushed red. Most parents would have freaked out at the sight of a boy carrying their daughter while she's asleep. I'm shocked that I haven't been slapped yet. I mean we kinda slept togeth- Ah! Not that way! In the literal sense! I clear my head and tried to answer her.

"No, we-" before I could finish Mrs.Delacy furiously pushed me inside their house.

"What!? You didn't?" She gestured for me to go upstairs. I followed her lead and she lead me up to Eve's bedroom where I lay the sleeping Eve. Mrs.Delacy sighed and said

"Listen, Niall. You seem like a nice guy and I have no problem with you dating my daughter, but you have to use protection!" Mrs Delacy told me sternly. She got up and gave me a box that said 'Trojan'.

"Take this. I don't want a little Eve running around here just yet. If there is you've got to take full responsibility." Mrs.Delacy rants.

"Alright?" I say questioningly. Mrs.Delacy pushes me out the door ending the awkward conversation. All I could think of was,

What the heck just happened?

A/N: Hi. Finally you get to see the world in Niall's point of view. Now, I'm not exactly portraying him as a big idiot, but he will have some idiotic moments. Because that's how I picture him.

Niall is a human.

He's not perfect.

He has flaws.

And that's why I love him.

Until next time!
