*Niall POV*

I hung up the phone as I finished my message. That was the second one today and knowing Kitty she would have had her phone with her. I hoped she wasn't mad at me. I sighed and slowly walked back to the boys.

"So how did it go?" Louis was the first to ask.

"She didn't answer" was all I said as I handed him back his phone.

"Well maybe she's asleep it is pretty late now." said Liam this time

"Even if she was she keeps her phone close to her all the time. Her mom travels a lot now and if she doesn't answer she worries. Plus she's a light sleeper she would've woken up from it." I was even more certain now that she was avoiding me. I knew I should have put her number in both phones!

“Maybe she was really tired” again Liam, trying to cheer me up

"Wait, how do you know she's a light sleeper?" asked Harry with a big smile on his face.

"Harry!" said the other three at his comment but I just laughed.

"We were childhood friends, we had sleepovers, you pervert. I would wake up and find her sitting there looking outside because she said the birds wouldn't let her sleep." I said smiling at the memory.

"Well I'm going to get a sandwich anyone else want one?" asked Louis getting up and making his way to the kitchen.

"I'll have one." said Harry

"Me too" Zayn said

"Me three" I told him

"Really you only want one?" asked Zayn

"I said three didn't I?" I said holding up three fingers. We all laughed and Louis went to make the sandwiches. Liam got up to help.

"So why is this girl so special?" Harry asked looking straight at me

"Yeah the whole flight here you seemed really stressed about her getting your message and we barely got back and you've already called her again" said Zayn

"Because she's... special. She's the reason I'm even here. She talked me into auctioning for the X Factor and went with me to the audition in Dublin and always believed I could do this. She's my best friend"

"Hey!" Louis yelled from the kitchen and we all laughed.

"Besides you guys of course. She's my best girl friend... Wait! I mean you know not girlfriend but a girl friend." I added when I saw Harry and Zayn’s wicked smiles.

"It's okay Niall we understand." Zayn said which made me sigh audibly.

"Of course we do," Harry said then looked over at Zayn

"You like her!" they both screamed

"No I don't! We're just really close!" I screamed back.

"Yeah the good kind of close" Harry winked at me while Zayn ran over to me to play with my hair.

“Would you… Hey! Get off me!” I screamed at them as Harry joined in.

"Look, look, he's blushing!" yelled Zayn.

"Am not! Stop it"

"Alright we got sandwiches!" announced Liam as he came in with 7 sandwiches.

"Yum!" Zayn said and let go of my hair. Harry shuffled it a couple of more times and went for his own sandwich. Liam set the sandwiches on the coffee table and he and Louis sat down. As I reached for my first sandwich I started to hear a phone ringing.

"Oh that's mine I must have left it in the kitchen" Louis said but by the time he stood up I was already halfway to the kitchen. I heard the guys laugh but I didn't care. If that was really Kitty calling back I didn't really care about anything else. I just wanted to hear her voice again. Finally I reached Louis's phone and answered in a hurry.

"Hello? Hello?" I said a little out of breath.

"Hi, Niall is that you?" It was Eleanor. Damn.

"Oh yeah hi El"

"I must've called your number by accident. Wait did you get your phone fixed already?"

"No this is Lou's" I said as I walked over to him. I handed him the phone and slumped down on the floor grabbing my sandwich and taking a big bite out of it. Louis took the phone to the other room and I prepared myself for what I knew was gonna be a long night of teasing from the boys.

"Go on" I told them through my mouthful of food as they were just staring at me. "Say what you want"

"Oh we wouldn't dare say anything" said Harry

"Yeah, it's not our place to stand in between... Love" Zayn said as he and Harry fluttered their eyelashes.

Liam laughed as I tried kicking them and put his hand on my shoulder. "If you admit it they'll stop teasing you"

"No they won't!" I told him swallowing the last bit of my sandwich and reaching for a second.

"He's right we won't." said Harry and started making kissing noises with Zayn pretending to kiss each other.

"Harry! I leave the room for two minutes and this is what I find!" Louis yelled as he came back into the living room. Now it was my turn to laugh as they got in trouble with Louis. They joke and tease but maybe they're right. Maybe I do love Kitty.
