Chapter 14 –

Julianna’s P.O.V

Niall. Horan. Niall freaking Horan. Niall Freaking Horan from Freaking One Direction was in my class room, being my music partner for the upcoming weeks. Oh god.. Lord help me.

The second I heard his voice, I knew that Noëll was right about it all. I was just a fool that I didn’t think of that sooner myself. I knew a bell should’ve rung as soon as Mr. Condor mentioned that someone special was coming, and I ran into Niall in the hallway.

I mentally face palmed myself for not thinking about it, before shrugging it off.

The second I walked through that door, all the nerves in my body started to kick in. I was in a room with a superstar, who might be the complete opposite of what I had expected him to be, and I didn’t know how to act.

But the second our hands touched, all those nerves left my body again. Like a magical vacuum went through my body and sucked them all out. It felt relieving, and all I could do was smile at him.

His security guard freaked me out a bit though, but that could also be the fact that he was just standing there, face stern and arms crossed, in the corner next to the door. Maybe I just had to get to know him before he lightened up. Who knew?

Mr. Condor cleared his throat, and both Niall and I gasped for air. The whole ‘different then meeting on the floor’ got us both in a big round of laughter, that had made goose bumps on my arm, and neither Mr. Condor nor the security guard understood why.

‘Sorry’ Niall mumbled, before biting his lips to suppress another round of laughter. A very sexy move, might I add.

Wait… I did not just think that. Did I? oh crap.

‘Well, Julianna this is Paul Higgins, Niall’s security guard. He’ll be around at all times, if not in the room then in the hallways. If you need anything, he’ll be there to help’ Mr. Condor explained, as I took deep breath to calm myself down. I nodded before turning around to shake Paul’s hand.

The smile that appeared on his face was actually genuine, and I smiled back, shaking his hand. Mr. Condor grinned to.

‘Okay, well. We’ll let you to get to know each other. Julianna, if you could explain the assignment to Mr. Horan then you two can get started. If you both need anything, just come to the teachers’ lounge, and I’ll help you out where I can’. I smiled and nodded to Mr. Condor, before both he and Paul left the room, leaving us alone.

Niall chuckled lightly, before turning back to the spot he was sitting earlier and grabbing the guitar. I smiled to, walking after him. The tension that hung in the air when I walked in was nowhere to be found, and was happy that it wasn’t standing in between us.

‘You know that’s mine right’ I stated, sitting down across from him and dropping my bag on the table next to me. Niall raised an eyebrow, placing his feet on the chair under the table.

‘Yours? Last time I checked it belonged to this school’ he answered, pointing towards the room around him.

I rolled my eyes, picking up my sheet music. ‘I know it’s not mine in that sense of the way, but it’s.. mine’ I said, shrugging on the last word.

Niall laughed loudly, his voice making Goosebumps on my arms.

‘Why is that funny?’ I asked, but Niall shrugged it off. ‘No reason’.
