Truly, Madly, Deeply (A One Direction/Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 18

~Chapter 18~

-Gem's POV-

I was in a haze that's all I can say. Or maybe it was the hormones. It's hard for me to admitt this, but when I kissed Niall some kind of switch turned on in my body. I liked it. I think I'm starting to get over Drae. When people speak of his name I don't cry anymore. And for some odd reason I feel that Niall and I are supposed to be together. Should I follow my heart? I don't even know. I guess me going on a trip with him will get us somewhere. We leave tomorrow. I packed my stuff. Niall offered to help, but I didn't want him going throughout my drawers. That would be odd.

"I'm going to use the bathroom", I said. I walked into the onsuite of my room. From in the bathrom I could only hear Niall's breathing and the rain hitting the roof of the house. Niall's breathing surprised me because if he was like most boys he would be going through me drawers. Looking at my panties and bra. I flushed the toilet and washed my hands. When I walked out of the bathroom Niall was sitting in the same spot he was sitting at when I walked into the bathroom.

"Your not like most boys, are you?", I asked.

"I don't know you tell me", Niall said.

"You don't look through my drawers, You don't check me out, Your kind, and sweet, and loving. Most boys aren't like that", I said.

"Well than I guess I am a little different than most boys", he said. I walked up to him and hugged him. What he just said made me do this, like the kiss. It was strange. I looked up into his baby blue eyes. We grew closer, like we were going to kiss again.

"I think I should go now", Niall said releasing his hold of me and leaving the room. I heard the front door shut. I didn't want him to leave. I wanted him to stay with me and finish the kiss. It was pouring outside why would he go out there. I looked out the window watching Niall walk to his house soaked. I wanted to run outside and finish the kiss we started and that's exactly what I did. I run outside in any coat or anything. I ran outside trying to get to Niall through the beating hard rain.

"Niall", I yelled.

"Niall", I repeated between puffs of air because I was quickly running out of breath. He turned around. I ran up to him and cupped his face in my hands.

"I just had to finish it", I said. Then I brought his lips to mine. Us kissing in the rain was like a movie. It was beautiful. His hands rested on my hips. He brought me closer and my fingers tugged on the hair on the back of his head. I didn't want the kiss to end but soon I did. I brought Niall back inside my house both of us soaked now. I got two towels from the hallway closet and wrapped one around me and one around Niall.

"I can't wait for tomorrow", Niall said.

"Ya, me neither", I said.

"I think we'll have a blast with Harry and Anna", he said.

I said,"Really? I hope so".

"You're so beautiful", Niall said looking into my eyes. I looked down at the floor.

"Thank you", I said.

"I would ask you on a date, but since I'm already taking you to England I guess that counts as a date", Niall said. A half grin was brought to his face. His hand lifted my chin up so now I once again looking into his adorable blue eyes.

"Smile", Niall kindly demanded. A fake smile appeared on my face then shortly disappeared.

"Come on please I love it when you smile", Niall pleaded. I smiled.

"You have the most beautiful smile I have ever seen and it warms me when I see it", he said. I laughed at his corny comment.

"What?!". "Why are you laughing?", Niall asked. He started to tickle me.

"Niall stopped", I said laughing and hardly breathing. He continued.

"I'll only stop if you give me a Horan hug", Niall said.

"Okay, okay anything", I said still laughing. He stopped and I gave him a "Horan hug".

It was getting late and we both had to wake up in the morning to leave.

"Here let me walk you home", I said.

"Okay thank you", Niall said. I got my coats and I grabbed an umbrella. We walked outside into the rain. The walk to his house was silent. When we got there he opened the door.

"Come in", Niall said. I walked through his front door. I've never been here before. It looked bigger on the inside than the outside. It was amazing. Everything was organized, just like Niall. He introduced me to his dad

"Hello Mr. Horan", I said.

"Hello", he said.

"My name's Gem".

"That a very unique name", he said.

"My mom was a very unique person", I said.

"So are you two dating now?", Mr. Horan asked.

"No, we're just friends", I said laughing a little. In my head I was like I wish. Niall turned to face me with a little smile on his face also. He intensely stared into my eyes.

"Well I better leave I have to get home and get some rest before we leave tomorrow", I said waving and walking out the door.

"Goodbye", Niall said.

"Bye", Mr. Horan followed after.

It was still raining but not as powerful and pounding as before. When I got home I took a shower and dressed in pajamas. I got in bed a pulled the toasty warm cover up over my face. I felt like a little child trying to hide away from some monster. I went to sleep dreading, but eager to know what tomorrow will be like.
