Like Before (Niall Horan)

Chapter Two: Dinner's Done

"Hello. You must be Alix." A boy with longish brunette hair said in a British accent. He put his hand out to me. I looked at Tia and she was still wide eyed and had a gaping mouth. I pushed her more into the room so I could shut the door behind us. I took the brunettes hand and nodded.

"Nice to meet you..." I started not finishing my sentence since I wasn't sure of his name.

"Louis Tomlinson?" Tia spoke in awe, partially stuttering on his last name. He kneeled down in front of my sister and smiled at her.

"Hello Love. What's your name?" He asked.

"I'm Tia." She said proudly. 

"Why hello Tia." Louis smiled taking her hand and kissing the back of it ever so softly. My little sister giggled a little bit and walked off into the living room. I watched her until she disappeared behind the wall, then brought my eyes back to the brunette, Louis. 

"Well, Sarah said we had guests. I didn't know she meant you guys." I said shrugging off my bag and dropping it by the stairs. "How long have you guys been here?" I asked.

"Oh just an hour or so. We just got off the plane when management told us the hotel we were supposed to be staying in burnt down." Louis told me. The hotel Jaesin was talking about. "So we waited at the airport and I guess a lot of people want to be in Vegas on the weekends." 

"Not to mention your concert." I regretted saying it immediately. I saw a spark in Louis' eyes and his lips turned up at the corners.

"Are you going?" He asked.

"My friend got two tickets and she's dragging me with her." I smiled sarcastically.

"Oh. I see." Louis said putting his hand at the back of his neck. 

"So are you guys hungry?" I asked walking to the kitchen. 

"Don't ask Niall that. He'll eat everything in your house." Louis smirked at me. The blonde boy from earlier came in the room.

"I heard that." He frowned at Louis as he walked closer to the kitchen counter.

"You must be Niall." I assumed and he nodded.

"Guilty." His accent was different. Not British. 

"You're not British?" I asked randomly and felt my cheeks color.

"No. Irish." He smiled at me.

"Sorry, bad question, eh?" I bit my lower lip.

"Its fair." Niall said. "But you did mention food. When are we getting that?" He asked me with a grin on his face.

"I'll make dinner now. What do you guys want?"

"I'll eat anything." Niall said. "Well almost." He smiled. I ended up making spaghetti and it was finished at 6:30. 

"Tia." I called while walking into the living room. I glanced in taking in the scene. There were 5 boys in the room with Tia. They had on some animated show I never watched. Four of the boys were squished onto our sofa and the curly haired one from earlier was chasing my sister around the living room. She came and ran to me hiding behind my back. The curly haired boy was about to chase her but he stopped and looked up at me. 

"Hello love. I'm Harry." He grinned. His dimples were showing in his cheeks and his green eyes bore into my blue ones. He stuck his hand out and I just stood there.

"Hi." I answered back. He lost his grin and dropped his hand. "Dinners done." I told him and turned my back on him pulling Tia into the kitchen. I got her seated at the table and gave her a plate of spaghetti, then grabbed 6 other plates. One by one I handed a plate to each boy. They went and sat with Tia. I sat next to Tia with my plate and smiled at her. "How's it?" I asked Tia and she smiled giving me a thumbs up. "After dinner, you need to go shower." I told her and she nodded her head. "Did you get your homework done?" I asked. She smiled and looked at the curly haired boy.
