Book Three - Discovery

Chapter Nineteen

Niall groaned a little as he woke up, he felt a strong pair of arms around him and he smiled knowing that they belonged to Liam. He knew the feeling of being in Liam's arms by sleeping in them. There was no safer place he felt than in the comfort of Liam's arms. He blinked a couple of times as his sleep filled mind went back to the night before. He remembered getting drunk with the lads, he remembered getting Liam to drink and then he remembered asking Liam if he could fuck him. He looked up at Liam as he remembered having sex with him, fucking him and really enjoying it. He felt confused now, he felt that he shouldn't be feeling that way towards another man, especially Liam, his best friend, his brother, and band mate.

Niall turned his head when he heard his phone vibrate. He carefully untangled himself from Liam's arms and checked his phone, that was almost dead by now, in his jean pocket. He smiled seeing he got a text from Sean.

I have a bit of time before work, if you're not too hungover, mind if I come over and we can hang out for a bit before I leave? -Sean

Niall nodded to himself as he sent off a reply saying it'd be fine and that he'll wait outside in the back for him since Liam was still asleep.

Niall then plugged in his phone, and slipped on a pair of boxers. He looked at Liam once more before the left the room to take an Advil, his head felt like it was on fire he then took a quick shower. After his shower, he grabbed a glass of water and an Advil for Liam. He came back into the room, sat the Advil and water on the table nearest to Liam then got dressed.

He then crawled back onto the bed and gently shook Liam awake. "Liam." He said softly as he gently shook him, his fingers going through Liam's hair like Liam had always done with him. After repeating his a few times Liam finally started to stir.

"Mmmm..." He groaned as he rubbed his sleep filled eyes. "Nialler?" He said quietly, the pain in his head hitting him like a shit ton of bricks thrown against a wall.

"Hey...I just wanted to let you know that Sean's coming over. We're going to hang out outside so you can get some rest...I just didn't want you waking up and worrying about me." He said.

Liam managed a small nod. "Alright...Is there any Advil in the house? My head...ugh." He groaned.

Niall smiled a little and nodded. "Table beside ya." He said as he heard his phone buzz again. He got off the bed and walked over to it. He saw it was a message from Sean telling him that he was here.

"Sean's here. We'll be out back if you need us for anything." He said quickly then left before Liam could reply.

Liam took the Advil and water as he remembered the events from the night before. He knew now that it wasn't a dream and that they were both just really drunk, but Niall hadn't said anything about it even though they went to bed naked together. Does he even remember? Is it upset? Is he angry? Does he hate me now? Is that why he didn't mention it? If he was sober enough he could've said no...but he was too drunk to say no to the Irish boy he had been crushing on for so long now. He couldn't help but worry if by letting Niall fuck him if he screwed everything up.

When Niall got outside and Sean showed up they sat on a bench. "What's up mate?" Sean ask with a half smile. Niall shook his head. "hangover."

Sean almost laughed, "You drank a lot. Did you have some fun? Liam too?" He simply wanted to make sure. His goal had been to help Niall relax last night.

"Well uh, I don't exactly know if fun works or not." Niall had so much weighing on his mind right now. It made the headache feel worse.

"What's wrong? And don't say 'nothing'" He reached to place a hand on Niall's shoulder but stopped himself and fluffed his hair. "Did something happen?"
