"You talk an awful lot, you know that right?" Lillian held a hand up as Niall finally came to a pause with his words,

He literally had been talking for what seemed to be the past five minutes or so. How could a human being just stand there and talk on and on without a stop? As far as Lillian had been able to keep up, a lot of the boy's words was about food.

The Irishman blinked his eyes in confusion as the brunette groaned with a shake to her head, "When I say, a lot, I mean a lot."

Niall frowned now; a sad and puppy dog-like expression dulling on his features that immediately made Lillian feel slight regret in her words.

"Oh... Sorry... I didn't really realize. Ah shit, I must be annoying you." He rubbed the back of his neck, he glanced away shamefully in a way that made Lillian grunt after running a hand through her hair,

"You aren't," She quickly stated, not entirely sure why she was showing this boy kindness "It's just I had no idea that someone could say so much in such a short period of time is all." Lillian half-lied with a forced smile on her face.

This answer made the happiness that had been in Niall's eyes reappear like a sparked match. The blond returned the beam obliviously, "Ahaha! Well, I guess I do talk a lot! I'm sorry still! I'll try to control myself more?" He questioningly said mostly to himself with an arched brow.

Lillian nodded with a thumbs up sarcastically, "Sounds like a plan."

Without another word, Lillian turned away to begin walking toward the door out of the cabin, already ending the conversation over. She wanted to know what was going on outside.

With furrowed eyebrows Niall asked, "Wait, where are you going?"

Pausing, Lillian gave him a short look, "Outside, on deck."

Louis was gone for once so now it'd be a perfect opportunity to leave.

Niall's eyes grew wide as he stood in front of the door with his hands outstretched, "Whoa, um, no, you aren't!" The younger male stated out firmly while he kept his eyes on Lillian steadily.

Slightly annoyed, Lillian stared back, "What are you doing? I'm just going to the toilet."

"You'll have to hold it because I'm listening to orders and making sure you stay within my sight until the rouge ship has passed." Niall's lips pursed a bit and Lillian groaned, "I'm not a child. I don't need to be watched."

"Well, yeah. It'd be kind of awkward if you were child that tall." He rocked his head from side to side on his shoulders, "Though I'm still not moving."

Lillian bit her bottom lip with a fold to her arms, "Okay, tell me then. What's the worst that can happen if I walk out before we pass the rouge ship, hm?"

The blonds' face contorted into that of thought and the brunette watched him dully.

"Since Louis is more than likely negotiating with the captain of the other ship into letting both the ships pass one another without conflict, if you go out there and anyone from that rouge ship sees you and recognizes you, they might attack us to get a hold of you!" Niall come up with reasonably,

Lillian arched a brow, "Really now? Negotiate? Oh, and here I was thinking that Louis was the 'big and tough' Captain Tomlinson! "

Clearly not sitting right with the words, Niall frowned, "Louis is tough!"
