Fallen

4. Time for bed

*Niall's POV*

I stared down at Mona as she watched tv. Her milk chocolate hair flowed down and then stopped below her shoulders. It was layered and beautiful. It was effortlessly gorgeous. Her brown eyes had dark rims and got lighter as they went inward and then got dark at her pupil.

Stop it Niall!

It had become a bad habit of mine. Staring and admiring Mona instead of guarding her. How could I not admire her? The shape of her face was perfect and she was so strong in many different senses.

Stop.

What is wrong with me?

*Mona's POV*

After my very awkward evening, I decided my night should be a calm one. As soon as I got home I showered and changed into my jammies. I had gone into my living room and plopped down onto the couch and watched my favorite channel, Animal Planet.

I was watching Caesar Millan rehabilitate this golden doodle when I heard a loud, familiar beep. I got up and shuffled over to the kitchen and snatched my pink and green phone from the counter. I squinted as the bright light from the screen hit my eyes. I had been watching the tv in the dark.

'Hey gurly!!! Wanna hang out tmrw??'

I had received a text from my best friend Kiki.

'Sure Kiwi! My house??'

I had been calling her Kiwi ever since I could talk. We had been best friends since we were 2. I started calling her Kiwi because when we were introduced she was stuttering and trying to say her name until she finally got out Kiwi.

'Sounds good Mini. @ 11?'

She thought it was funny to call me Mini. When we were in middle school I was shorter than all my friends so a lot of them started to call me Mini. Mini Mona. Kind of ironic since I was now 5'7. 

'Okay. C ya!'

I locked the screen and placed it on the counter and walked back to the couch.

Now the golden doodle was on his way to being a little angel.

*12 am*

I drowsily got up from the couch and into my room.

"Sleepy already?" A smooth voice asked.

"Mhm." I said as I rubbed my eyes.

I turned around and went to the bathroom. I was honestly exhausted.

I lazily brushed my pearly whites. As I was about to walk to bed when I saw Niall standing at the doorway of the bathroom.

"C'mon on sleepy head." He walked over to me and lifted me up bridal style. I was too tired to protest. He gently laid me down on the bed and tucked me in.

"Night night." I whispered as I got comfy. He leaned down and kissed my forehead. I expected him to go back up to heaven or wherever guardian angels were from, but instead he closed my door and then quietly sat in my desk chair. I started to drift off to the sound of his beautiful voice singing lullabies.
