"Niall?" I wake up to the sound of Spencer's voice. I look down to my left and see her awake, staring at me.

"Yeah?" Is all I say.

"What time is it?"

I reach my hand into my pocket and grab out my phone. The phone brightness stings my eyes. I turn away from my phone, blinking my eyes for them to adjust.

"It's only 4:00 am?" I groan.

"I'm sorry for waking you."

"No, don't be."

Although I won't be able to sleep now.

"Do you want to go on an adventure?"
She asks. I don't know what she means by that.

"Umm, where too?"

"McDonald's." She simply says.

"No, I'm good."

"What about Walmart? I need chocolate."

"You don't have any here? You have a grocery store in your kitchen!"

"Sadly, no. That's why I want to go to Walmart. I need chocolate. Like a Hershey bar or Snickers or something!"

"Are you feeling alright?"

She shakes her head no. I rub her back. I feel her forehead but it feels normal. She doesn't have a fever.

"You look fine." I look down at her. She just stares blankly at the wall.
"I don't feel fine. I would tell you but I don't want to scare you off."

"Just tell me! You can't scare me off. I'm here to stay with and by your side forever!"

"I'm on my period Niall."

"Okay. How about I run you a hot shower? I'll run to the store and buy the chocolate, I'll come back and get you some clothes to change into and a nice warm towel."

"Niall, that is a dream come true. But I don't want you to go through the trouble of doing that. I'll just have my dad do it later today."

"No, you can get a bad rash! I don't know why you're scared to tell me."

"Because, I've had boyfriends before that I would tell them and they would say that, that was nasty and never say it again. I didn't want you to say that."

"Of course I wouldn't Spencer! You know I used to have a girlfriend right? I have a mom and a sister-in-law. I'm used to hearing this stuff. It doesn't affect me really unless you get all personal with it. Now come on!"

I get up and walk to her side of the bed and pick her up. I turn on her bedroom light before walking out to go towards the bathroom.

"Here, start getting undressed. I'll be back in a few minutes to check on you."
She nods. I close the bathroom door leaving her in peace.

When I come back from the store, I go to the guest room and go to my backpack. I pull out one of my grey sweatshirt and go to her room.

"Here, you can wear this." She's wearing black leggings, a white tank top, white socks and her hair is in a bun. Gosh she looks adorable.

"Thanks Niall." She smiles sheepishly.

"Do you want to go back to bed? We can sleep in the guest room if you like."

"No, it's fine. I'm not really tired anymore."

With the bag in my hand I go up to her and hand it to her. She smiles at me then gives me a hug.
The next few minutes are of me and her in the movie room watching Home Alone and The Duff. She fell asleep during Home Alone 2 then later woke up at the end of the movie.
I kind of had to melt the Chocolate and put it in her ice cream. Simply because she can't eat it like that after her surgery.
