What's Life Without You?

Chapter 20

~Kirrily POV~

The next girl came up to me eagerly wearing a big smile. "Hello, it's really great to finally get to meet you! I'm Jill, I'm 15, I sing and play an instrument with 88 keys!" She energetically introduced herself and Niall laughed, getting it.

"Well hello Jill! I'm very delighted to meet you and all my fans and Directioners too and hey, I can recognize an Irish accent everywhere. So, where you from?" I winked.

"I'm actually from Wexford," she laughed. "And if I remember correctly it's in the same province as you two are from."

"Haha, yeah, we'll come visit you then! Not a long drive from Mullingar!" I smiled.

"I will drive past your house...and if the lights are all down...I'll see who's around..." Nialler hummed.

"That's what I told myself, one way or another I'm gonna meet ya and now I'm living my dream!" She joked.

"Tell ya what, Jill, I'm living my dream too and I need to thank you for your support because that's why I'm here!" I pointed out.

"Oh, actually, I don't know if it's appropriate to ask, but do Harry and Kendra fancy one another?" She lowered her voice so that just the two of us could hear it.

Niall and I exchanged knowing glances and subtly nodded to Jill, stifling chuckles.

~3 hours later~

The last girl stepped up to the table.

"Hi!" I said, forcing a smile over my tired face.

"Hey," this girl looked like she was my age.

"Hello!" A little voice chimed.

Confused, I looked over the table to find a bald, little girl.

"Hi there!" I waved at her. "What's your name?"

"I'm Avalanna!" She exclaimed delightedly.

"How old are you, Avalanna?"

"I'm 6!" She held up 6 fingers.

"6? Are you in big school yet?"

"No, I go to hospital school."

"And why would that be? Why would such a beautiful girl like you need to go to the hospital?"

"Yes, that's quite true," Harry piped up.

The boys crowded around Avalanna and I, even Kendra came to have a look.

"Avalanna has cancer." Her sister spoke for her.

"Well, I think that cancer needs to shoo away, so that you could attend big school!" I said.

"Really?" Avalanna's eyes lit up.

"Of course! Do you want a bear hug?" I smiled. She took my offer and all of the boys exchanged hugs. Before she left, I wrote her a little note showing my support for her and that I wanted her to stay strong.

"Well, I could do that again." I huffed. Niall hugged me from behind and congratulated me for the success of my EP release.

"Should I be thankful that you secretly taped me?" I turned around and poked his chest. 

"Hmm...how would you thank me?" He asked.

"Something along the lines of..." I planted a kiss on his lips.

"EWW PDA STOP STAHP!" Louis screamed and ruined the perfect moment.

"And it's okay if you and Eleanor PDA in front of us?" I said to Lou.
