"Okay. Night Niall." I say as he walks me up to my door.
"Night Beautiful." he says and then smiles. I smile back and then quietly make my way into my house, carefully maneuvering my way upstairs when the lights turn on.
"Shit." I mumble to myself. I turn to see my angry looking parents.
"Lilliana René Parker. What the hell were you doing out this late?" my mother asks.
"Mum it's okay. Niall just wanted to talk to me. We went to the park right down the street and nothing else happened I promise." I reassure them.
"Oh yeah? And just what did you "talk" about?" my father asks.
"Long story cut short, he said he'd stop bullying me. We settled pur differences." I explain to them. They seem to relax a little at that.
"Well, you scared us nearly to death. Please don't ever do that again sweetie." my dad says. He and my mum envelop me in a hug.
"I know. I'm sorry. Night." I say and then head upstairs to my bedroom where I quickly fall asleep.

*The Next Day*
I walk into class and Mr. Highstone isn't there. I check the clock on the wall to see what time it is and I realise I'm later than usual, but still super early. I sigh and sit in my usual seat all the wat in the back.
"Lilli!" I hear someones voice through my jumbled-up thoughts. I turn to see Niall standing in the doorway. He isn't usually here this early.
"Niall? What the hell are you doing here this early?" I ask him. He smiles at me.
"I'm stealing you away for a bit. That is, if you don't mind being a bad girl for once and skipping class today." he teases and I roll my eyes.
"Of course not." I say. After we exit the school, we ditch our bags in a bush on campus.
"Ready?" he asks, an excited smile on his face. I can't help but smile as I nod my head in response. Niall takes my hand I we run, both of us smiling like complete idiots the entire way.
......................................
"Okay, we're here." he says. We're both trying to catch our breath from running. I look where we are and realise the place instantly. Six Flags.
"Ohmygod." I say. I love rollercoasters.
"What? Not afraid of rollercoasters are you?" Niall asks, suddenly worried. I laugh and then smile at him.
"Of course not. Now come on, let's get our arses in there!" I say and then tug him with me.
"You're not scared are you?" Niall asks. I'm not usually afraid of rollercoasters, but I've never ridden one like this before and I'm a little aprehensive.
"Niall, just...take my hand. Please." I plead. He smiles slightly and firmly takes my hand in his.
"I won't let go. I promise." he says. Somehow, the freindly gesture is comforting. His warm, soft hand intertwined with mine gives me a sense of secureness.
...............................
"See? I told you it wouldn't be that bad." he says. I shove him as he laughs.
"Oh shut it. I wasn't that scared. But I am pretty hungry." I say. Niall's eyes light up with excitement at the mention of food.
"I have just the place to go. Come on." he says.
