Chapter 13 {Carry On}

Still Niall's POV:

A glint of sunlight peaks through the cracks of my eyelids officially waking me up. There wasn't a lot of pain where I got cut and stitches anymore. I rush up with happiness. I move my arms to find that they're wrapped around someone's body. Florence's. My eyes immediately open and I blink a couple of times to make sure I wasn't dreaming. I let go of Florence and look to see what time it was. It was 8:13 AM. I rest my head in my hands remembering last night. Florence and I finally got back together, and I guess I just really was tired and fell asleep. I looked down at my body and saw that I was still wearing the same clothes. I start to feel rustling next to me, Florence was starting to wake up also. She rolled around back and forth and then fluttered her eyes open. She looked at me confused but then realization cane rushing through her eyes.

"Goodmorning." I say with a smug smile on my face.

"Goodmorning.'' She mumbles back sleepily.

I lay back down and snuggle up close to her.

"Did you sleep well?" I ask.

She nods her head softly and then shuts her eyes slowly starting to go back to sleep. I close my eyes also and start to go back to sleep too. Right as I start drifting off into my sleep I hear little pitter patter and then a small mass jumps onto the bed.

"WAKE UP! WAKE UP! IT'S THE WEEKEND!" Emma Claire screams and starts jumping on the bed.

I open my eyes and see Emma Claire in her footsie pajamas and her long brown hair is in braids, she's hopping on her knees waiting for both of us to get out of bed. Florence flips over onto her stomach and groans in want of more sleep. I smile at Emma Claire and say "We'll get out in a minute." She hops off the bed and runs downstairs.

I lay silently and wait for some movement to happen. I then feel a vibration rush down my leg. I check my pocket and find my phone. I got a text. And it was from Liam. I opened up the text and read it.

"Hey Niall! Flew into new york last night. Can we catch up? Txt me back wen u can."

I texted him back immediately, saying where we could meet up and what time.

I softly shook Florence awake in excitement. She mumbled in annoyance and then rolled over and sat up in a haze.

"Yes?" She asks.

"I hope you don't mind," I start "but, Liam texted me and said that he flew in last night-"

"Yeah, I understand. Go have fun." She interupts.

I smile and kiss her softly on the lips. I hopped out of bed and got ready for the day.

******

I had to stop by my hotel to check out and get some fresh clothes. After I did that, I walked down to a small restraunt that served breakfast to meet up with Liam.

I entered the restraunt and the smell of black coffee and syrup wiped across my face. The restraunt was very old timey, it had checkered flooring and red tiled walls. The booths looked old and dirty and there were only a few people sitting at the counter on the red cushioned stools. I look around and I find Liam sitting in a back booth, with two cups of tea and he was nervously shaking his leg. He had changed so much. He looked older, more mature, and slightly more taller. He had little whiskers at the end of his face and his hair was in its curly state. I headed towards him and his table and sat down.

He looked at me in confusion and then realized who I was.

"Niall!" He yells in excitement. "Oh, boy, you have no idea how happy I am to see you!"
