The Exception (Narry)

twenty-six

February 2nd

"You're so old" I laughed, running my fingers through Harry's hair as I sat on his lap with my legs wrapped around his waist.

"Oh god" I gasped.

"What?" He asked, his eyes widening.

"Is that?" I asked, "oh my it is!"

"What? Niall, what are you talking about!" He groaned, clearly frustrated.

I smirked, "I think I just found a grey!"

"Yeah right" He mumbled, shoving me gently off his lap as he ran over to the mirror, expecting his hair. "There are no grey's! You're a meanie"

I laughed loudly as I lay flat on my back, holding my sides from laughing so much at how adorable he was. He pouted, crossing his arms over his chest. I smiled in admiration as a small curled strand of hair fell in front of his eyes as he tried to blow it back up onto his head. You couldn't help but find the small things about Harry the most admiring things.

"Stop looking at me as if you want too eat me!" He laughed, seating himself beside me.

"Maybe it's because I want too" I winked cheekily.

"Are you insisting on a bit of Netflix and Chill, Niall? " He smirked.

"Only if you want too" I smirked back causing him to laugh.

"Soon grasshopper soon" he smiled, kissing my forehead gently. 

I smiled in return, taking his fingers in mine and lacing them together. I lifted my eyes and looked into his. His beautiful green eyes which you can't help but love and his perfect plump pink lips that when he smiled would be somewhat lopsided. 

"Do I have something on my face?" Harry's voice pulled me out of my little Harry obsession trance which I did promise myself to stop doing but it's just a really hard thing to do, like honestly I feel like I may need therapist lessons or a smack over the back of the head from Laura.

"No baby" I smiled, watching as he smirked from the nickname I just called him "You're just very pretty"

"Pretty" He scoffed, "I am a handsome man" 

I laughed, tilting my head backwards "You sure about that?" 

"Positive, lets be honest here Niall" He looked at me seriously, "You think I'm just as handsome as a Disney prince" 

"Oh really?" I asked, raising my eyebrows. 

"Yeah, you think i'm so very handsome but I'm not as handsome as you" 

"Aw Harold" I pinched his cheeks only for him to swat my hands away, grabbing my wrists in his hands gently. 

He smiled, leaning forward to kiss my forehead gently "I love you" 

"I love you too" I blushed lightly, turning my face to the side in attempt to hide the massive smile that had just formed on my lips. How did I, simple and plain, Niall Horan manage to have the heart of Harry Styles. 

He looked good today, much better than he had been that's for sure. I could still see the pain in his eyes though. I just wanted to hold him in my arms forever. I wanted him to get better but every time he just seemed to be getting worse. 

"I love you" he mumbled lingering his lips over mine "so much Niall James Horan"

"I love you so much Harold" I smirked, pecking his lips softly before standing up. "As much as I'd love to stay and cuddle your cute ass all day we made plans with our friends" 

"I love that you refer to them as 'our' friends, it makes us sound so coupley" He chuckled, throwing his jacket on over the top since the air was rather breezy out today. 

I laughed along with him, "it does, doesn't it" 

He shifted his weight slightly from one leg to the other, "so who are we seeing today?" 

"Why, is there somebody you don't want to see?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. 

"No! of course not..it's just, I.." He ran his fingers through his hair sighing, "I just don't think I'm ready to be around so many people yet" 

"Hey, it's okay. I understand." I smiled softly, leaving a gentle kiss on his cheek "It's only a few such as Laura, Louis and Zayn"

He sighed in relief, sitting down on the bed as he looked up at me through his fucking gorgeous eyelashes. My heart skipped a beat, no matter how much time I spent with this boy I don't think I could ever get used to the feeling he gives me. 

"I'm so lucky I have you" He mumbled, taking my hands in his and pulling me towards him. "You're my sunshine on a cloudy day" 

I didn't have time to respond before his lips were on mine. It was soft and gentle yet thrilling and exciting. His hands held my waist as I tangled my fingers in his hair, gently climbing onto his lap. I felt him pull away slowly, a pout which I hadn't even realized has now formed on my lips causing him to chuckle. 

"As much as I'd enjoy staying here and seeing where this might lead us" He smirked, winking. "Our friends who we did make plans with are waiting for us" 

He was right. We had promised them we'd be there on time and hang out with them. I took Harry's hand in mine and together we walked out to his car. 

I looked around the small restaurant for our friends and sure enough I spotted them rather quickly. It did help that Louis was waving both his hands in the air and smiling widely at us both. I laughed at the feathered haired boy and made my way over to them, Harry close behind. 

"Niall!" Laura squealed happily as she threw her arms around me to greet me. 

"Laura!" I mimicked her, causing Louis to laugh. 

Zayn looked up from his menu, a small smile "finally! we can eat" 

"yeah sorry, we couldn't find the car keys" Harry mumbled, a small smirk on his lips as the fib left his lips. 

"mhm" Louis smirked back as we slid into the booth across from them, the same side as Zayn. 

The rest had already decided what they had wanted for their dinner and as soon as Harry and I had decided we ordered and quietly ate our dinner with not very much talk at all. I watched as Harry placed a hand to his head a few times, rubbing it gently which was something he often did when he was having headaches. I placed my hand over the top of his, carressing the top of his hand gently with my thumb. 

"Are you okay love?" I whispered. 

He sighed, "yeah, just a bit of a headache" 

"We can go home if you like?" I squeezed his hand reassuringly and he nodded. 

"That'd be nice actually" He smiled softly at me before standing up and tugging me up with him, "sorry guys but these headaches are killing me, so Niall and I are going to head back home" 

"No worries guys, feel better Harry" Louis smiled gently. 

I really did wish that Harry could just feel better and get better but I just don't think that'll happen.
