Emilea’s POV

“You look beautiful!” Niall exclaims as I walk out of the bathroom in one of the outfits the girls bought me.

“Thanks! You don’t look too bad yourself.” I smile. I put on the shoes and look at the final product in the mirror.

“Will you take a picture so I can send it to Katie?” I ask, tossing him my iPhone.  Niall nods his assent and snaps a quick pic.

“Thank you sweetheart.” I say jumping out the door and racing downstairs.

“CAREFUL! YOU’RE GOING TO BREAK YOUR NECK!” Niall shrieks running down after me.

“I’m fine!” I exclaim sitting on a barstool.

“You’re going to be the death of me.” He mutters before grabbing the keys off of the counter. I follow Niall out to the car and climb in after him.

“You’re going to be fine.” I laugh, grinning at his dramatics.

“I’m serious Emilea. I don’t want you to get hurt. You need to be more careful.” He says seeming to serious.

“Ni, I’m fine! Why do you worry so much?” I ask frowning slightly. Niall reaches over and runs his hand down my cheek.

“Because I love you silly girl.” He mumbles before snapping his attention back to the road. My eyes widen and I sit back in my seat before pulling my knees to my chest.

“Emilea? Are you alright?” He asks glancing between me and the road. I don’t reply and start biting my fingernails.

“Emilea? Em?? Talk to me!” He exclaims trying not to freak out. Niall continues to stare at me and the road. Niall pulls the car over and stares at me.

“Emilea Blair. What is the matter?” He asks staring at me.

“You love me?” I ask in complete shock.

“Well…yeah. Why? Is it that big of a deal? I thought you knew….” He murmurs blushing slightly.

“No one has ever said that to me. Well Katie has… but she doesn’t count.” I say looking at my hands.

“Well your parents have right?” He asks frowning at me.

“No.” I admit quietly.

“What?” He asks, narrowing his eyes.

“Never. Katie… and now you; that’s all who’ve said it to me.” I mumble looking up at him.

“I’m sorry.” Niall says pulling me into a hug. I hug him back and smile at the strange turn of events.

“Oh, and I love you too.” I whisper in his ear. Niall grins prominently and kisses me before pulling back onto the highway for our lovely night.
