*Brianna's POV*

"c'mon, let's do it on a count of 3.....1....2......3!"

"WAAAAKE UP WAKE UP IT'S THE MORNING TIME, THE SUN IS SHINING AND ALL IS GOOD SO WAAAAAAAAAAAKE UP!"

What in the world?! I shot my eyes open to see all the boys and Alyssa singing at the top if their lungs and louis and Zayn jumping on the bed. What a lovely wake up call (sense the sarcasm?) I pulled the sheets over my head to shield my eyes, only to have it ripped from my grip. When they still continued to sing/yell, I decided to get up. "OKAY, IM UP, IM UP!" I shouted. "Breakfast better be made or else you're all dead.." I threatened. Let's just say I'm not a morning person..at all. They all chuckled at my "morning moodiness" as my mom likes to call it.

When we got downstairs, to my surprise breakfast was made. There were 7 plates full of pancakes, bacon, and eggs! I was drooling just looking at the mouth watering sight of food. I quickly sat down at the table and devoured my food. Me and Niall were the first ones done, everybody else just shook their heads at us. What can I say? I love food.

I was watching tv when I realized I was still in Niall's clothes, I decided to go and give him his clothes back considering mine were probably done in the washing machine. "Hey Zayn, where is your laundry room?" I asked. "Over there love" he replied pointing at a door beside the stairs. I walked over and pulled my clothes out of the dryer. I then walked upstairs and changed in the bathroom, and put my hair up in a pony tail. I walked out and ran right into someone making me fall on my ass. I looked up to see Niall with a worried expression on his face. "Are you okay?!" he asked, his sweet Irish accent filling my ears. I took his hand that was offered to help me up. "yeah, I'm so sorry, Im so clumsy.." I said, feeling my cheek heat up. He chuckled. "Erm, here are your clothes, thanks for letting me borrow them." I said, trying to change the subject from my embarrassing clumsiness. He took them from me. "Oh no problem." he said with a grin on his face. There was an awkward silence shared between us, until he finally spoke up. "Um, so wanna go downstairs or just stand here?" he said with a wink. I blushed and nodded, leading the way downstairs. Everybody was sitting down, eyes glued to the tv. "Alyssa, we should go home..don't you think we've bothered the guys long enough?" I asked. We were here for a long time and my mom was probably going to flip at me. "Yeah, we probably should." she said. Zayn immediately grabbed Alyssa and squeezed her to death. "Im not letting go, you're not going" he said to her in a stubborn tone. "But we have to go.." she said sadly. He kissed her cheek and let her go. "Fine, but you better come back tomorrow." he said with a smirk. We said goodbye to everyone and went home.

In the car I noticed Alyssa kept eyeing me. When she did it like the 5th time I spoke up. "What?!" she smiled. "oh nothinnnng." I was getting annoyed. "no seriously, what?" she smirked. "Do you like Harry? Or do you like Niall?" I was a bit a taken back. "Neither, why?" I said with a straight face. She didn't reply right away, I looked at her for an answer. "Well you and Harry kind of flirt, and last night you slept with him. But whenever Niall's around, you seem happy and bright. Your eyes sparkle and you blush a lot around him." she said now looking at me. I looked down at my hands and picked at my nails. Did I like Niall? I knew I didn't like Harry, I just didn't see him that way. Harry was more of a flirt buddy, or like a bestfriend if anything. But Niall... I could see myself being his... But did I want to risk getting hurt again? My past love was pretty bad. I've been abused by past boyfriends before, physically and emotionally, cheated on, and raped once actually. No matter what the situation, I always got hurt. I always ended up crying myself to sleep for weeks, even months. Niall did seem different from my past boyfriends though... But how can I say that right now? I met him like not even 22 hours ago. "Earth to Brianna, hello?" I was pulled out of my thoughts, Alyssa's hand waving in front of my face. "oh sorry." I said simply. "So I'll take that as you like Niall?" she nudged me. "I never said I did." I replied looking out my window. "But you also never said you didn't." she wiggled her eyebrows. I chuckled at her dork like self. "I just don't want to get hurt again..." she suddenly went serious. "Yeah but babe, sooner or later you'll have to let your guard down. Not every guy are going to be like your ex's. Not every guy is going to hurt you emotionally and physically . Remember when justin asked you out and I said I had a bad feeling about him?" Justin. I shuddered at the name. He beat me every time we were together. I was afraid to end things. He'd give me bruises and cuts..my mom was always worried about what they were from.. I'd lie and say I fell in gym or something. I finally ended it when he tried to choke me, he could of killed me if he wanted to.. "and remember Adam? I had a weird feeling about him too, and look what happened. He abused you as well as rape you." I felt a tear run down my face remembering my past...my horrible, scarring past.. "I had a bad feeling about most of your boyfriends, the ones that hurt you at least. But when I look at Niall, I don't have a weird or bad feeling about him. I trust him with my best friend's heart. But it really is up to you Bri, I don't want to force you into anything you don't want to do. I'm just saying that I have a strong feeling he won't hurt you the way the others have." she said with a weak smile. I sent one back. I didn't even realize we were already at my house. Alyssa wiped one of my tears away. "just keep your head up babe, and think about it. I think he could really make you happy, and all I wanna see is my best friend the happiest she can be!" she pulled me into a tight hug. "Thanks Al" squeezing her tighter. I got out of the car and waved to her as she backed out of the driveway.

I walked inside, and met up with my mom in the living room, telling her that I was home and that I was going to bed. She didn't question me but just simply kissed me on the head. I walked upstairs, got changed and got into my snug bed. Did I want to let my guard down? Could I trust Niall? Could I trust my heart? Let's just say I have a lot of thinking to do..

*Niall's POV*

Here I lay in bed, not being able to fall asleep because Brianna is occupying my mind. I looked over at the alarm clock. It read 11:45. I was tired, but I could not get those beautiful blue eyes out of my head, that sparkling smile, that long luscious brown hair, her cute petite noise, all her beautiful features.. She was breathtaking. I really wanted to make her mine. But I didn't want to be so forward about it since we just met. I remembered back to earlier today, Zayn invited them over tomorrow. ZAYN. He knew her from childhood. I jumped out of bed and stood I'm front of Zayn's room. I lightly knocked on his door, hoping he wasn't sleeping. I heard some shuffling around until the door slowly crept open revealing a tired looking Zayn. "Hey mate, what's wrong?" he asked, his voice groggily. "Im wondering if we can talk.." he nodded and let me in, closing the door behind me. I sat down at the end of the bed, as he did. "So what's on your mind?" I looked up at him. "Uhm, Brianna's on my mind.. I really like her mate.." he smiled at me. "Ouu, Niall fancies Bri" he said in a teasing tone. I could feel my face turn a deep shade of red. "So what can I do for you?" he asked. "Well, you've known her since childhood, right?" I verified. He nodded. "Well, do you know how I could, uh, make her m-mine?" I stuttered out. He smiled so big, I thought his smile was going to fall off his face. "Sure can mate! But the thing is that you have to take it a bit slow with her. She's been hurt in the past, badly." he said turning serious. "W-what happened?" I asked curiously. "I'll let her tell you that. But for now, get some rest." he patted me on the back and I left, going into my own room. I got into bed and fell asleep. The last thing on my mind was of course, Brianna.
