What Happens After Dark*ON HOLD*

Chapter 2: Texting plans

"Really?!" Niall said breaking the hug. "Thank you so much Alyssa,' he said as he hugged me again.

"No problem Niall," I said thinking I would regret it later. "Okay, so Niall. You know that if you ever do that to me again I'm probably never gonna talk to you again, right?"

"Oh, yeah! I totally understand. If I were you I would do the same. It's weird not seeing your best friend for a while then you come home and avoid them for two weeks, then when you finally see them you blow up on them when you really didn't mean too," his words got quieter as he went on, "and you only really did it cuz you like them and you were embarrassed that they saw you lose..." By this time he was almost mumbling.

"Wait what did you say niall?" I questioned him on his statement. I had thought he said that he liked me?! "Did you just say that you like me?" I asked surprised.

"Umm... No. Of course not why would I? That's crazy," he rambled on trying to prove his point.

"Oh..." I said kind of disappointed.

"Uhh... Yeah, well I gotta go. See ya later Alyssa," he said as he walked out my door and waved goodbye.

"Oh, okay. Well see you later Niall. Text me!" I yelled after him.

*an hour later*

My phone rang and I looked at the screen. The text read, "Hey, sorry about earlier my mom had told me that I needed to b home by 5 and and when I looked at my phone I realized it was already 5:30 so I needed to run home quick" it was from Niall.

I responded saying, "It's cool. So what's up?" I sent it and stared at my screen waiting for a text back.

A couple minutes later I got a text back saying, "Nm just sittin at home wbu" he always said that.

So not looking like I was waiting for him to reply I waited about five minutes then responded, "Same, I'm really bored"

It seemed almost immediate that I got a text back saying, "Same. Sooo.... U wanna hang out tonight?"

As I was reading it I had the biggest grin on my face while also biting my lip. My text read, "Ya that'd b cool. My parents are on vacation in England right now so you come over if u want."

A minute later he replied saying, "Yeah! That'd be awesome! We can do a sleepover and build a fort like we use to."

I laughed as I read the text and replied, "Haha yea that'd wouldn't be really fun!" As soon as I sent it I realized it said didn't! I started to type saying, "Oh my gosh I'm soooo sorry I meant would be really fu-" but then I got a text from him it was too late.

The text read, "Wait wut? I'm sorry I thought it might be fun but uhh nvm I guess :(."

I quickly finished typing but he didn't reply right away like he was before so I went across the street to his house and knocked on the door.

*knock knock* the door opened in seconds.

"Hi, Alyssa!" It was Niall's mom.

"Hi, is um Niall home?" I asked trying to look behind her.

"Oh, yes of course. He's in his room. Come on in. I'll go get him," she said leading me in and closing the door.

"Oh, no it's fine. I'll go in and talk to him I think I need to."

"Oh okay. That's fine well see you later," she finished in an excited tone, but I could tell she was a bit surprised and worried at the same time.

"Okay thank you. See you soon," I finished with a smile and as I turned around out came Niall with head phones in and looking at his phone.

"Hey mom I'm gonna go for a jog. See you in about," he looked up and saw me then he stoped.

"Hey did you get my text?" I asked him looking into his eyes.

He took out his headphones then said, "Uh... No I don't think so let me check real quick," he looked back down at his phone and read it. "Oh. Ok well let me get some stuff," he said stumbling backwards into his room. "Hey mom, I'm gonna go have a sleepover at Alyssa's house tonight, okay?" He asked even though he meant it more as a statement than a question.

His mom said, "Okay," seeming quite surprised.

He went into his room and packed up his things he came out within five minutes and grabbed my hand running out the door and saying, "Okay mom. Well see you tomorrow!" He ran out the door still holding my hand and slammed the door behind him not even giving his mom a chance to say goodbye.

"Whoa! Niall slow down!" I said as I ripped my hand away from him and started to walk.

He laughed and said, "Come on Alyssa. I thought you loved to run."

"Yeah," I said, "but not when I'm being lazy."

We both laughed and Niall came back and walked with me. A few seconds later we were at my house and I opened the door letting Niall in then following behind him and locking the door. He put down his stuff then went straight to the kitchen.
