Secrets

Chapter 45

*Caroline's P.O.V*

"Emma, are you ready?" I quized holding the butt of my palms over her eyes, restraining her from vision. She nodded with a squeal, obviously excited. Niall & I had planned to go bowling for the night considering neither of us had the time to pursue that dream since we were adolecents. I walked closer towards the room where Emma's boyfriend that I had yet to meet & Niall. I pushed through double doors wafting into a room, darkened by the dimmed lighting. I saw Niall chatting with Emma's boyfriend, both sitting around a circular table near the bowling alley. Few people tossed bowling balls down the long pathways scuffing the floor's with there shoes and chatting amongst themselves whilst other cashiers ran the arcade, glowing in the distance.

"Emma, meet Niall Horan." I uncovered her eyes revealing my blonde boyfriend who stood up to greet my best friend. She released a harsh holler running into his arms. Niall was taken aback a bit stumbling into the table behind his torso. Her boyfriend was chuckling trying to pry the estatic girl attatched to Niall.

"Nice to meet you too," Niall choked out.

"Sorry about her," I blushed joining her boyfriends pull. We finally got her off of him, both breathing hard she gave him a shy wave. She apoligized over and over again her face turning a light hue of pink.

"So, you're my biggest fan?" Niall quizzed sitting back down at the table. I acompanied him as he stretched his forearm behind my back landing his palm on the bottom of the seat. Emma nodded taking her boyfriends hand in hers, "But I'll always be your biggest fan too," Emma gushed giving her significant other an eskimo kiss. Niall scoffed ending it with an exasperated laugh, "Nice to know my fans have another boy in there lives."

"Unlike Emma most 'fangirls' spend there lives kissing up to posters dreaming of the live I happen to be living," I stated leaning my head into the crook of Niall's neck. He pecked my forehead grinning at my comment. "Well not everygirl can have the personality, looks, and charisma that you contain." I blushed replying with a peck to his lips. Emma fixed her eyes on us, staring awkwardly.

"Now that your done, Car this is my boyfriend Luke," Luke gave us both a wave like we haven't met but didn't say a word.

"How long have you been together?" Niall quizzed.

"About 6 months," Luke replied. He owned a raspy, husky voice that hummed under his own skin. It obviously applied goose bumps onto Emma's body considering she was putty in his hands. They seemed good together, I hope that was how Emma saw Niall & I.

"Shall we bowl?" Emma announced after our in depth conversation on how Niall & I met. I missed Emma's goofy imagination & humour. We were sisters since 1st grade, nothing has changed. As the boys went ahead talking about something with futbol Emma pulled on my wrist.

"He's better than I expected," She squealed trying to contain herself.

"Luke too, you guys are like two pea's in a pod,"

She smiled at me, "Really? I'm so glad you like him. Its kind of hard for me not to say I don't like Niall. Afterall, he's Niall freaking James Horan." I chuckled at her words and we approached our boyfriends lugging the balls in our hands.

"Need help, Love?" Niall chuckled seeing me struggle with the heavy weight in my hands. I whisped my head nodding 'No' wanting to seem better than I actually came to be. I took a shot swinging my hand back and then forward releasing the colored ball rolling into the gutter.

"Better luck next time," Niall whispered raspily into my ear. He took a shot with his ball scuffing the floor with his polished shoes.

Strike.
