Black Night (Ziall Story)

Chapter 1

Chapter 1:

The door creaked open and lite foot steps slowly awoke me. I kept my eyes closed, moving my hand up my pillow to the knife.

"Nia-" before the voice said anymore I lunged at the black shadow and tackled it to the ground, forgetting about my knife.

"Niall!" A familiar angry voice yelled but I kept my grip. He chocked as I put my hands over his neck and sat on him, the man kicking and yelling.

"Stop it Niall!" He coughed "It me, Liam!"

My eyes adjusted and I say Liam in my hands, struggling to breath with a red face. I instantly let go, red hand marks on Liam's neck

"I'm so sorry Liam" I apologised

His breathes hitched "What was that for?"

"I- I- I thought you were someone else" I explained "Sorry"

He slowly got off the carpet and glared at me "Breakfast is ready" he growled but I didn't care and ran out of my room into the kitchen. My Aunt M was making pancakes

"Mornin'!" I greeted pretending like I didn't just tackle Liam, my best friend to the floor. All the pancakes were on a plate. I reach out for a perfect golden pancake but, Aunt M swatted my hand away.

"Hey!" I said, hearing Liam's feet go down the stairs and into the kitchen

"That's mine!" She hissed and I pouted and put on the best puppy dog face with a baby voice "May wittle Nialler pwease have the pwancake?"

The pancake disappeared from Liam's hand

"What are you doing with my pancake!" My aunt snaps

"Give me the pancake!" I add

Liam chuckled "You Horan's and your food"

I took a step forward with a puppy face "Please give me the pancake?" He nodded no and I ran towards him, wanting that perfect piece of food.

Liam, and his advantage with height, put his hand up high with the pancake.

I glared at him "Come on, get it" he taunted me with my shortness.

I jump, reaching for it but nowhere near.

"Liam!" I pout, trying again and again. I cling on his arm, using his body for a boost with my feet and I jump forward, grabbing the pancake from his hand. Liam's mouth dropped open in shock that I found a way.

"Not so short now am I!" I grin, showing him wrong

"Impressive" his eyes narrowed at me.

I plopped down on a chair and set down my pancake, not caring for syrup, butter or a plate. I stared at the delicious substance, looking at how well it was cooked and its texture. The yummy smell of breakfast went up my nose and my mouth watered for the food. My stomach tingled, growling and I gladly took a bite out of the amazing pancake. I chewed it, feeling it tasted like a rainbow.

"Does it taste good?" Liam asked, sitting horizontally from me with a plate full of pancakes, Mabel syrup and creamy butter.

"Spectacular" I melted to the food, taking another mouth full bite out of it.

A loud ringtone, 'Barbie Girl' ringtone, burst out and Liam signed grabbing his phone from his pocket and answering.

I didn't bother to listen to the conversation like I usually do. I enjoyed my food, sneaking some (maybe alot... I'm innocent I swear!) bites from Liam's plate.

"Ok, I'll be there, bye!" Liam said turning over to me with a stern look

"Gotta go" he says, getting up from the table and handing his empty plate to AM (Aunt M)
