Sink [Niall Horan]

Chapter 2

Delilah's POV

I yawned before my eyes fluttered open and I realized I was cuddled into Niall's side with his arm wrapped around me. I smiled at him before he shifted his position and slowly opened his eyes and looked at me, smiling.

I felt the dry tears on my cheeks from crying last night and I frowned.

"What?" He frowned.

"Nothing." I sighed.

He shrugged probably not wanting a repeat of last night and unwrapped his arm from around me, repositioning himself by leaning back on to his elbows.

"Want some breakfast?" He asked.

I nodded while rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.

Niall slowly got off the bed and stood up. He turned to me and offered a hand to help me get up. I shook my head at him and he raised an eyebrow. I sat up on my knees and got closer to him. I placed a hand on each of his shoulders and slowly spun him around so his back was facing me. I guess now he finally realized that I wanted a piggy-back ride because he chuckled and squatted down so I could get onto his back.

I giggled as he stood up fully with me on him. I wrapped my arms securely around his neck, and leaned my head in forward to kiss his cheek. I could feel him smile against my arms which were pretty close. Then I heard him chuckle a little before licking one of my arms jokingly.

"Ewww, Niall!" I squealed letting both of my arms unwrap from around him. I took the arm that he had licked and wiped it onto his shirt. He chuckled while he tried to keep both of us in balance as he started to walk down the stairs.

"You're so gross." I mumbled into his back as I leaned my head down and wrapped my arms around his waist this time.

"You feel like a large monkey around me in that position." He laughed and I giggled at his weird thought he said aloud.

"You're weird." I laughed. He walked us through the kitchen doorway and turned so my back was facing the island counter in the middle of the large kitchen. He got on his tippy toes and pushed me back so I was sitting onto the table. He turned back around to face me with a grin on his face.

"But you love me..." He smiled as he came closer to me. I leaned down and placed my hands around his neck, letting my lips softly touch his.

"I do..." I whispered after we both pulled out of the kiss.

"So, what would you like Chef Horan to cook you up for breakfast?" He smiled, grabbing my hand and giving it a playful squeeze.

"How about some pancakes, scrambled eggs, and...bacon?" I asked.

"Okie dokie!" He smiled and leaned in to give me a kiss on the cheek before speeding off around the room to make me breakfast. I watched him carefully, a smile never leaving my face. I giggled at him when he would drop something and he'd look back and grin at me before picking it up quickly and going back to cooking. About 15 minutes later the food was being placed very carefully onto plates. When he was done, he looked at me and smiled before setting the plate down next to me on the counter and lifting himself on to the counter as well.

"We don't have to sit on top of here. It's ok, I can move." I started to move off the counter but Niall's hand was there to stop me.

"No, babe, its fine! We can stay here." He smiled before taking a bite out of his bacon.

I smiled at how sweet he was and nodded before getting back into my previous position and eating.

"You still have that interview tomorrow, right?" I asked in the middle of our breakfast.

He simply nodded because he had cheeks full of food.

I giggled before asking, "What time?"

He finished chewing his food before answering.

"The interview starts at 10, but I'll be there around 8:30."

"Ok. How about we do that lunch, we talked about yesterday, with Lacy and Lou?"

He nodded. "That'd be nice." He said before clearing his plate and getting off the counter to set it in the sink.

"Ok, I'll call them tonight." I smiled and finished my last piece of bacon before doing the same.

I stopped Niall before he could turn on the sink and wash our plates.

"I'll clean up the kitchen since you made a wonderful breakfast, Chef Horan." I kissed his lips.

He did a little bow before smiling and walking out the door.

Minutes later I had finished cleaning the kitchen and walked into the living room where I found Niall sitting on the couch, watching the news. He had a frown on his face.

"Niall, what's wrong?" I asked while walking over to him. I sat on his lap and looked at him curiously.

"The coffee shop..." He trailed off.

He didn't have to clarify which coffee shop he was talking about. There was only one that we cared about. I was the small coffee shop on the corner of Elm Street and Baker Road. It was our coffee shop. The place we'd first met.

"Our coffee shop?" I asked. He nodded. "What about it."

"It's closing."

"What?!" I asked, sitting up more. "Why?!"

He shrugged. "I guess the owner doesn't have enough to keep it open."

"Georgia? But...but it's so popular. Everyone in town knows about it. She should be making loads of money..."

"I know...I guess it's just old. It's just come time to shut it down. It's closing, babe..." He stated.

"And there's nothing we can do about it?" I asked sadly.

He shook his head.

There's nothing we can do about it.
