Just a "Dream".

Chapter 21

"Anyway.. umm.. so you do any acting or dancing?" I attempt to change the topic.

"What?" Niall whips his head.

"Jared Horan is your brother. He's a pretty decent actor.. So I was just wondering maybe you also were..." I trail off as a smirk slips on my face.

"Trust me when I say I suck at acting but..I had taken music classes in college...so... I guess I can sing..." Niall answers with a smug smile.

"Well..let's see then. The stage is all yours mate" I gesture with my hand at the shore infront of us.

Niall grins at me widely as he jumps up and dusts his jeans before walking a few a steps forward and turning to face me. I pull my legs to myself and wrap my arms around them.

He closes his eyes and he takes a deep breath and starts.

"My life is brilliant.

My life is brilliant.

My love is pure.

I saw an angel.

Of that I'm sure.

She smiled at me on the subway.

She was with another man.

But I won't lose no sleep on that,

'Cause I've got a plan."

Niall belts out the lyrics to 'You're Beautiful' by James Blunt.

"You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

You're beautiful, it's true.

I saw your face in a crowded place,

And I don't know what to do,

'Cause I'll never be with you."

He walks forward and stretches his hand and I spontaneously place mine in his as he pulls me up. He places one hand on my hip and links the other with my right hand and automatically my left hand rises up and rests on his shoulder.

"Yes, she caught my eye,

As we walked on by.

She could see from my face that I was,

Flying high.

And I don't think that I'll see her again,

But we shared a moment that will last 'til the end."

My hands perfectly fit into his as we slow dance as he continues singing. There is no background music but Niall's voice makes up for it , he's that good at singing. I so wish that we could stay like this forever.

"You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

You're beautiful, it's true.

I saw your face in a crowded place,

And I don't know what to do,

'Cause I'll never be with you."

Niall twirls me and then drops my right hand and instead takes hold of my left hand and we start walking towards a rock. He sits on it facing me while still holding my hand.

"You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

You're beautiful, it's true.

There must be an angel with a smile on her face,

When she thought up that I should be with you.

But it's time to face the truth,

I will never be with you."

He ends the song as our eyes lock and I'm unable to peel my gaze away from his face. Warm breeze is blowing and the only thing audible is the sound of the waves softly hitting the shore. He looks as spectacular as ever even in the little moonlight. A small smile tugs at his lips but it doesn't reach his eyes.
