Tell Me A Lie (Niall Horan / One Direction Fan Fic)

Chapter 4

Morning came, and as i woke up i had a few new messages on my phone.

'Would you like to re-new your PPI? Please claim your cash by calling 01234343' 6:30AM

'Morning, be ready by 10 x' - Nialler 8:55AM

What?! Niall wants to meet up again? 

'Sure, see you then x' 9:20AM, I texted back. What's going to happen?! Is he going to act like nothing happened or is he going to have a go at me for last night... I decided to get ready. I just chucked on a pair of leggings and a t-shirt with a cardigan and some UGG boots, left my hair down and didn't bother putting on any make-up. 

At 10:00AM there was a knock on the door. I answered it and saw Niall, his face was as bright as ever and he looked really happy. Did i dream what happened last night?

"Morning beautiful," he said, shooting me a cheesy smile.

"Hey," i said back, blushing. I shut the door and we headed down the hallway. "So, about last night.."

"Don't worry about it, it was only a game, right?" he said, grabbing my hand. I nodded and looked at him apologetically. He just smiled and looked away. "I'm taking you to the London Eye," he said as we got into the car.

"The London Eye?" I asked happily. "I've always wanted to go on there!" 

"Yeah, i thought you might have liked it to have a clear view of your old home, you know," 

"Yes! Thank you so much!" I turned to him and gave him a hug. My arms wrapped around his neck and he nuzzled his head into mine as he carefully wrapped his arms around my waist.

"That's okay, I knew you'd like it," he said as i pulled away. We were in the car for about 20 minutes until we arrived at the London Eye. We got out of the car and queued up until we finally got our turn to get into a carriage. Niall had to wear sunglasses and a hat to keep his cover, so he didn't get hundreds of fans crowding us. As soon as we got into our carriage, he slid off his hat, pulled off his glasses and fixed his hair a little. 

"Here we go," he said, as we lifted into the air. An hour in a small space with Niall seemed like the best idea in the world. Although, i forgot to tell him i was a little afraid of heights...

"Niall..." i said as i worriedly looked into his eyes.

"Yes?" He asked, stepping closer towards me. "Whats wrong? You look.."

"I'm afraid of heights.." Our carriage lifted higher into the air and i stepped further away from the window.

"Why didn't you say so? I would've took you somewhere else," 

"No, i've always wanted to go here and i want to face my fears," i said as i covered my eyes when i saw the distance we were from the ground. I could feel Niall's hand slip round my waist and i rested my head against his chest. He started playing with my hair, i faced him and wrapped my arms around him. "It does look beautiful, though."

"Just like you," he said. I couldn't help but plaster my face with a big, cheesy grin. I looked up at him and our eyes met. They were as deep as the ocean and as i looked into them, i could feel the butterflies coming again. He was perfect. I could feel myself leaning in and my eyes closed slowly. I could feel his breath on my lips, i couldn't help but smile. Our lips met and they moved together in sync, his hand resting on the back of my neck holding me to him, we pull away and our eyes lock. He kissed me again only deeper as i kissed him back. He pulled me closer to him, our bodies clenching to eachother. I grabbed his shirt and his hands wrapped around my waist. We pulled away and our eyes met again, this time when they met, i could feel myself burning up. Did i love this man?

As the carriage was lowering, we was watching the view of London, his arm still wrapped around my waist and i was resting against his shoulder. 

"Thank you," i said to the man as he let us out. Niall quickly put on his hat and glasses and thanked the man then we headed back to the car. 

"I've had an amazing day," i said to him as we were driving back to the building. "Thank you."

"No, thank you for coming," he said. He looked at me and smiled, then grabbed my hand and looked back to the road. "It's been fantastic, well done for facing your fear of heights too," he said laughing. I smiled at him.

When we arrived back at the building he walked me to my apartment. I thanked him again for a great day out. "Me and the lads are having a movie night later, you want to join us?" He asked, grabbing my hands. I nodded.

"I'd love to," i said smiling, i walked closer to him and wrapped my arms around him. He held me tighter, not wanting to let go. He kissed my forehead and let me free. 

As i got into the apartment i took a quick shower and looked in the mirror for a few minutes. "Niall Horan.." I said to myself, "why do you like me?" I laughed at my reflection.

I collapsed onto the bed re-living the moment on the London Eye in my head. That moment wouldn't leave my brain, it was all i could think about. I closed my eyes picturing it again in my head, when suddenly i drifted off into a light sleep, hoping Niall felt the way i did too.
