[Niall's POV]

Before I knew it, it was Monday, the day I was going shopping with Daniel and Elisabeth. I can't tell you how excited I am. Honestly. I swear I have cabin fever, and going out is really gonna cure me. Well, at least now I'll have a reason to go out!!

Staying at home all day and hiding away from fans and the paps is really not the way I wanna live my life. But it's the safest way to live my life. Hopefully fans won't see through my disguise today!!

It's 11 in the morning and I had just gotten dressed and was getting some toast for breakfast. Reilley, our assistant, had gotten us a new toaster yesterday after our recordings so it's all good. She did warn us not to let Harry near the toaster though.

My phone started vibrating in my back pocket just as I was about to bite into my toast. Holding the bread in my mouth, I pulled my phone out to read the caller ID. It was Daniel, probably calling about today's events.

"Waddup?" I said into the phone, holding the now-partly-soggy toast in my free hand that wasn't holding the phone.

"Hey Niall!! Was wondering if you'd like a ride? Lizzy and I are in my car right now and we're heading downtown!"

"Sure thing! Hold on, let me text you my address, yeah?"

"Kay! See ya soon!! Oh! And Lizzy says hi!"

"Well tell her I said hi back!" I chuckled into the phone before ending the call and finishing my 'breakfast' in large mouthfuls as I texted the details to Daniel.

"You're heading out today?" somebody asked, making me jump in my skin as I didn't notice anyone come into the kitchen.

"Holy shit," I cursed, turning around to face them. "Zayn! You scared me!"

"Haha, glad to know that I have this effect on guys," he joked. You have no idea, I thought wistfully to myself.

"Nope, you were just too appalling," I countered.

"Jeez, Niall, stop denying your love for me. You know you secretly want me."

Yes, I do! But do you?

"Ugh, I don't have the time to argue with you. Got a ride to catch," I said instead.

"Well, I see how it is, you're gonna have fun on your own, leaving me with the lovely LiLo and love-struck Harry," Zayn grumbled. And God knows just how hot he is with his brows furrowed. Jesus, the things this boy makes me feel.

"Sorry mate," I mumbled. I felt terrible now, leaving Zayn alone like this. "Do you wanna come with us? I feel like a loser for leaving you alone."

"It's okay man, I have a date with Perrie later on anyways," Zayn said, making my heart sink.

"Oh, okay cool," I replied, plastering a smile on. It's okay, I told myself. It's okay because Zayn is your friend and that's all you need. But a small voice inside me told me that I wanted more than that. I wanted to be more than Zayn's friend. I wanted to be his boyfriend. The one he loves. I wanted to be his everything. But that's never gonna happen. "I'm gonna get ready to meet Daniel now. Have fun with Perrie!"

With that, I made my way to my room, fighting back tears that were threatening to fall. My Blackberry started blinking, indicating that I had received a text. Sniffling and drying my slightly damp eyes, I began reading the message from Daniel.
