One Direction One Shots 2

Niall's House (Niall)

‘Oh, Y/N, it’s so good to see you! Niall didn’t tell me you were coming over!’ Mrs. Horan said opening the front door and pulling you into a warm hug. ‘It’s nice to see you too Ms. Maura, the reason I’m over here is—’ ‘The thunderstorms are awful and she’s without power at her house!’ Niall said taking off his jacket and then yours, shaking out the water droplets. ‘Not in the house!’ she said shooing him. ‘Come inside honey would you like some tea or cider?’ Niall’s mom felt like your mom too. Whenever you were over there you were like part of their family. ‘I send Niall out to get bread and he comes back with his girlfriend! Did you get the bread, Niall?’ she asked, looking around for a blanket to wrap you in. ‘I knew I forgot something!’ he laughed. You thanked her for the blanket and sat with Niall on the couch. ‘Where are your parents dear?’ she said putting the kettle on. ‘Oh, I don’t know. They said they were going out somewhere but they haven’t come back yet. That’s why I called Niall to come get me. I hope you don’t mind.’ As welcomed as she made you, you still felt a little intrusive. ‘Oh no, not at all! We couldn’t have you sitting at home in the dark by yourself!’

Niall’s stepdad was out working late so it was just the three of you. You snuggled with Niall on the sofa and watched a couple of movies while his mom shuffled in and out of the kitchen bringing you tea and snacks. By now it was past 10 and you had called your parents several times. They didn’t answer and even though you were a little scared of sleeping at home by yourself, you figured you had been at Niall’s long enough. ‘Well, I think I’m gonna head home,’ you said standing up. ‘I’m sure you all want to get some sleep. Thanks so much for everything Ms. Maura. Niall, would you mind driving me back?’ ‘You’re leaving?’ he said looking up at you, ‘But your parents aren’t home yet. You can’t be there by yourself.’ You shrugged. ‘Eh, it’s okay I’m used to it. Besides, your mom probably wants to get some rest. She had to take care of two kids today!’ ‘No no!’ Mrs. Horan said walking swiftly into the family room, ‘You’re staying the night! I won’t allow you to go home by yourself. It’s dark and the weather is awful dear!’ As guilty as you felt staying, you really felt loved at Niall’s house. ‘Well, okay but I’ll be out first thing in the morning I promise!’ ‘Stay as long as you like, Y/N. We love having you around. Especially Niall,’ his mom said smiling at him.

‘Yeah okay thanks mum I think we’re just gonna go to bed’ he said embarrassedly. ‘Already? Well I’ll go make up the guest bed, I’ll only be a minute’ she said hurrying up the stairs. You and Niall sat at the kitchen table and he rubbed your thigh with his hand. ‘You know you’re not sleeping in the guest room tonight right?’ He winked at you and made some suggestive movements. You giggled. ‘Come on I can’t do that to your mom. She’s been too nice to me. Maybe tomorrow when you drop me off at my house.’ He pouted, ‘I can’t wait that long! Come on just come in real quick and then go back to the guest room. You know we can have fun.’ You shook your head, ‘Uh-uh, not tonight Niall. I’d feel too bad. Plus, what if she hears us?’ ‘Hears what?’ his mom said coming down the stairs. Your eyes grew wide. ‘Oh um, by us I mean me. I’m really afraid of thunderstorms and sometimes I scream. You know. Because I’m scared…’

‘Don’t worry about me, I can sleep through anything dear,’ she said. ‘The guest room’s all set up, so go up whenever you’re ready. I’m going to stay down here a little longer and read a bit.’ Your mouth as well as Niall’s hung open. You can’t believe she actually bought that excuse. He cleared his throat, ‘Oh, uh, okay. Good night mum. Love you.’ ‘Love you too Niall’ she said as you and he made your way up the stairs. As soon as you got to the guest room, he shut the door and the two of you busted out laughing. ‘She actually believed you! Oh, um, I’m afraid of thunderstorms Ms. Maura, sometimes I scream’ he said mocking you. ‘Shut up,’ you said punching him playfully. ‘I’ll be right back I’m gonna find you something to sleep in,’ he said exiting the room. ‘Okay.’ You walked over to the window and looked out. Rain pounded against the window, rattling the frame. Niall returned with a t-shirt and some boxers with palm trees on them. ‘Didn’t I buy you these?’ you said examining them. ‘Yeah I think so. Anyway, are you coming back to my room tonight or should I just go to sleep?’
