Niall’s POV
When we got back to my house, the girls slipped off their heels, and we tip toed into the kitchen. I found a note on the counter that was from my dad.
Hey buds!
We decided we would give you kids the house. We headed over to Paris for the weekend. Have a great time! Use your credit card for whatever you need.
Love,
Mom and Dad
“Oh they aren’t even here!” Harry yelled, reading over my shoulder. “Anyone care for a late night swim?”
We all agreed and stripped to our underwear and held hands at the edge of the pool. I was in between Lucy and Sadie. The pool was heated but I was still afraid of the icy water on my parts. Louis counted to three and we all jumped at once. I was pleasantly surprised at the temperature. We all swam over to the shallow end where there were built in benches in the water. We sat Lucy in my lap and Louis to my left. Bella was on the other side next to Sadie and Zayn. They hadn’t really hung out much tonight. Harry must’ve been thinking the same thing because; he casually said
“Hey Louis, why aren’t you sitting next to your date?” He leaned back and put his arm around Cara. Louis hung his head and blushed he didn’t say anything. Bella was blushing and shooting bullets at Harry with her eyes.
“Oh no.” Lucy whispered.
“You guys did NOT hook up tonight…” Sadie said.
The boys busted out laughing. Bella stood up and stormed inside. “I’ll be right back.” Lucy said standing up. She followed Bella inside.
“Come on guys,” Louis started. “She’s embarrassed of kissing me.” His head was still down. Kayleigh was beside him and put a hand on his face.
“That’s not what that means.” She said seriously. “It means she really likes you.”
Louis picked up his head. “Not kidding?” he asked.
“No! She really does!” Kayleigh said smiling.
Bella and Lucy came back out and took their spots. “Well I had a great night!” I said cheerily taking Lucy back into my arms. Cara yawned loudly and we went to dry off. After we all got in pajamas we went to the home theatre in the basement. The plush black couches looked so comfortable. There were blankets and pillows piled in the corner. Everyone grabbed one and took their seats. There were five couches in all. The first one was Liam and I, the second was Cara and Kayleigh, the third was Lucy and Bella. On the fourth couch was, Louis and Harry, and the last was Sadie and Zayn, of course. We all sat down and I popped in “Grease” By the time the menu screen came up, Zayn was asleep. He was on the edge of the couch, Sadie behind him dozing. Harry came back from the bathroom and kneeled next to him.
“Goodnight, sweet angel.” He whispered and kissed him on the forehead. Sadie busted out laughing and woke Zayn up.
“Wha?” he asked and didn’t wait for a response before rolling over and laying his head on Sadie’s chest. The rest of us lay down, heads apart. I couldn’t fall asleep. I got up and headed upstairs. I went to the bathroom and headed to the kitchen. I got a cup from the cabinet and filled it with water.
“Couldn’t sleep?”
“Son of a bitch!” I dropped the cup and water went everywhere. I turned around to see Lucy standing there. “You scared the hell outta me!” I whispered.
“Sorry” she said sheepishly looking around for a towel. I gave her a reassuring smile and pulled a towel out of the drawer, mopping up the water. Good thing I picked a plastic cup or I would be kneeling in glass. “I couldn’t sleep either…” she said. “I had a lot of fun tonight! Thanks for asking me!” “Uh you’re welcome?” I didn’t know what to say to that. I was happier she said yes!
We wandered into the living room and chatted about the night and our plans for the summer. She snuggled in beside me and I wrapped my arm around her shoulder. I was telling her about what I thought we should do when we go to the lake house, when I heard her snoring lightly. I looked down to see her fast asleep. I thought about waking her up, or being adorable and carrying her back downstairs or to a bedroom but I thought, “Why waste such a perfect moment?” I kissed her on the top of the head and lay back letting the memories of tonight send butterflies through my body.
