Niall’s POV

I got the earliest flight to Dublin. It was in about a half an hour but I thought I could do it. I quickly went through security and waited in the nice comfy chairs for boarding. I was thinking about how hard this was going to be to find her. I even debated asking her for her address, but decided that would look way to stalky. My leg bounced as I waited for my flight to be called.

“Flight to Dublin airport,” A blonde air hostess said. I jumped out of my chair and waited in line. I got first class tickets, not because I just wanted to. Also not because I just had the money, I wanted less crowds, maybe a little less attention. My eyes switched from ‘Perks of Being a Wall flower’ up on the airplane, to my phone. I wanted to see how much publicity Lucy and I had gotten. I typed in my name feeling a little self-centered.

“No, sorry love,” She said sadly. Then, her eyes shined “Wait I do know one! She was in the same English class as you in 10th year. Lucy Hatton, Don’t you remember? She even came over her once or twice,” I frowned, I could feel my forehead crease in frustration. How could I have possibly missed a girl like that? She then told me her address.

“Thanks mom,” I said, “I’ll be back a little later don’t worry,” I gave a little wave and then I was out the door. I ran down the street and down two blocks. I could see her sitting on the steps, her hair hanging in her face like it did the day before. She was sitting next to another girl. Lucy was rubbing her fingers along the concrete steps and nodding. The other girl looked up and her face lightened.

“You’re……,” She said, her hand was over her mouth in disbelief. Lucy looked up, her green eyes flashing with excitement. She smiled
