"Um, hello?" I asked, getting slightly creeped out at the heavy breathing on the other side of the line.

The phone call ended. Okay this is slightly creepy. But, if all the boys are drunk, they might be playing a practical joke, or it could even be a case of the wrong number or a bad connection. I let the thought completely slip my mind, as we all climbed back on the bus again.

*NIALLS P.O.V*

I was slightly tipsy, but sober enough to talk about things. I walked over to Louis who was texting Orla on the sofa. I grabbed his arm and pulled him up, dragging him outside so no one could hear our conversation.

"So, anything more from Jake?" I asked, running my hands through my hair.

"Nope. Just the usual." He sighed.

"Louis, do you trust Curtis?" I asked, hoping he'd agree with me.

"Course I do! Why?" He asked. Maybe he wasn't going to agree with me then.

"Well there's something that's not right about him. First of all, he appears the second Jake is back and we've seen him hanging around with Chris and Mark. And he's also being very forward with Sophie, and I don't like it one bit," I ranted, finally getting it off my chest.

"Niall listen to me. Curtis is completely trustworthy. He's new! He wasn't supposed to know about Chris and Mark was he? You're reading too much into this, mate. And do I detect a hint of jealousy?" He smirked, raising his eyebrow.

"No..." I mumbled, folding my arms and looking at the floor.

"Aw Nialler is jealous," he teased in a singsong voice.

"Psh whatever, anyway it's me and Sophie, not him and Sophie," I smirked.

"Exactly. And what's the smugness about, eh?" He grinned, taking a sip of his beer.

"Nothing," I mumbled.

I heard the front door open and a bunch of chatters and giggling. All the girls entered the room with about 50 bags between them. I mentally rolled my eyes and stumbled over to Sophie who was on her phone.

"Hiiii," I grinned. She looked up from her phone an grinned back, putting her phone in her back pocket.

"Why are you grinning like that? What have you done?" She asked cautiously, raising her eyebrow.

"Nothing! Honest to god, babe! I just feel tipsyyyy!" I grinned, showing her my best toothy smile.

"Mmm okay then," she grinned, taking my beer bottle out of my hands and having a swig.

We hung around for another hour, just all of us, talking about nothing. It was nice it just being the way it should be.

*MY P.O.V*

I was sat on Niall's lap when my phone went off in my pocket.

'Hey Soph,

Just to let you know that we'll probably be at Emily's mum's all week now. She has caught the flu and we need to look after her.

Love you tons xxx'

It was off Aiden. Ahh well, at least me and Niall could have some time together. I quickly typed a reply.

'Okay! Aw, I hope she gets better soon! See you soon, love ya too grimshaw xxxx'

"Niall I want to go home," I whispered in his ear, flopping my head on his shoulder, momentarily closing my eyes.

"Okay, let's go then," he whispered back, kissing the side of my head and loosely flopping his hand onto my waist. "We're gonna go, guys," Niall shouted to everyone in the room. We all said our goodbyes before I picked up all my shopping bags. Niall kindly took half of them for me as we began to walk home. To be honest, I only acted like I was tired because I wanted to go home. I just wanted a relaxing night, and get some sleep without having to worry about college tomorrow. Me and Niall could have a film day and not move once if we didn't want to. I just wanted to go home and spend some alone time with Niall.

"So, did you have a nice time shopping?" Niall asked.

"Yeah it was okay. Got to the bottom of why Amy and Zayn went so weird for a couple of weeks.

"She thought she was pregnant, didn't she," Niall murmured.

"Did Zayn tell you?" I asked.

"Yeah, god it's just so weird isn't it?" He replied, taking my hand and intertwining our fingers.

"Mmmm, I suppose," I shrugged my shoulders.

We arrived at the front door and I took my keys out of my bag, opening the door and picking up the post. It was mostly all stuff for Emily and Aiden, but there were two identical letters for Niall and I which were presumably from college and there was also a handwritten note for Niall. I handed him the letters and he went upstairs for a shower. I skipped to the living room, fell down onto one of the sofas and I could slowly feel myself drifting off...

*NIALLS P.O.V*

I jogged up the stairs, holding the handwritten letter in my hand very tightly. I had a gut instinct feeling of who it might be off. I told Sophie that I was getting in the shower, so I locked myself in the bathroom just incase she came upstairs. I tore open the letter and it read-

'Horan,

I see you have kept our little secret and not told little Sophie or Grimshaw, because you and I both know what would happen if you did. Just to let you know, that I will get her back, and this time it is going to be forever and neither you, Grimshaw or your little friends will be able to stop me. I've got Chris and Mark keeping a right good close eye on you, so you better watch out. You've taken her away from me Horan, she's mine to do whatever I want to.'

I could feel my face getting redder and redder as I read the letter and my hands clenched into tight fists. No one was going to hurt her and Sophie isn't some sort of object either. I shoved the letter in my pocket to show Louis the next day.

I quickly jumped in the shower, washing my hair and my body. I dried myself and grabbed a pair of boxers and one of my Irish football t shirts. I jogged downstairs to see Sophie.

When I got there, she was completely out. She was fast asleep on the sofa.

"Soph?" I whispered. She just groaned and turned on her side.

I sighed to myself then smirked and giggled, leaning down and picking her up bridal style, carrying her upstairs. I layed her down on the bed and jumped in next to her, and she snuggled her small frame against me.

"Goodnight Soph, love you," I whispered, kissing the side of her head, before falling asleep myself.
