OH MY GOD I AM SO SORRY I HAVEN'T UPDATED IN FOREVER I KINDA FORGOT THIS EXISTED... I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO UPDATE SO MUCH MORE NOW I'M SO SORRY I'M A HORRIBLE PERSON!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"A-a-a-achoo!"

"Whaaaaaaa?" I awakened with the sudden noise and squinted for my eyes to adjust to the light.

"Dammit." I heard someone mutter from the door.

"Niall?" I sat up, rubbing my eyes.

"Er sorry babe, but I need to head back to my hotel before anyone notices I'm missing." Niall half smiled.

"Its 5:30AM" I glanced at the clock on my nightstand.

"Exactly, I can sneak in and go to sleep so no one will notice I snuck out last night."

"Niall." I pouted.

"I'm really sorry, love, but I've got to go." Niall grinned, sheepishly. 

"Ugh." I grunted and rubbed my temples. "I have such a bad hangover and I never get hungover. What happened last night?"

"You-you don't remember?" His smile faltered.

"I remember throwing a party and you came and I don't remember anything after that." I shrugged apologetically.

"Oh." Niall scratched the back of his neck.

"Why?" I wrinkled my forehead. "Did something else happen?"

"Nope." Niall popped the "p" and swung open my bedroom door. "I'll see you later Avery."

The door closed shut before I even had a chance to say goodbye. Well that was strange. I glanced at the clock beside me, 5:38. I couldn't fall back asleep now.

"Ughhhh." I groaned and fell back onto the bed, pressing a pillow into my face. Niall seemed like he was mad at me. Why would he be mad at me? Ugh, and he looked so cute for having just woken up. Why couldn't we just date for real?

***

"So you told her you wanted to date for real?" Harry widened his eyes.

Niall sighed and nodded his head. Turns out all of the lads had noticed his disappearance. 

"And she said..." Liam motioned for him to continue.

"She said yes." 

"Niall that's great!" Zayn playfully punched his shoulder, grinning.

"But this morning she didn't remember anything because she was too drunk last night. She probably didn't even mean it." Niall sighed again and looked down at his bare feet.

"Mate, people poor their feelings out when they're drunk, and they don't hold back. There's no way that she would have lied and said yes because she was drunk." Louis pointed out. "If she doesn't remember, just ask her again."

"Cal said we can't real date because then there would be break up drama and all this stupid shit."

"Screw Cal." Harry raised his fist in the air.

"Screw Cal!" The rest of the boys mimicked him.

Niall grinned, suddenly feeling liberated. "I've got to go." He grabbed his shoes and ran out the door.

"Hi, is this where" I looked around before whispering "One Direction is staying?"

"Miss, that is classified information." The hotel receptionist glared down at me.

"Oh no no you don't understand." I put my sunglasses on top of my head. "I'm a friend of Niall Horan's and I need to know what room number he's in." 

"Really? You're a friend?"

"Yes." I tapped my foot against the marble floor.

"Well then why didn't you say so?" She broke out into a creepy, off kilter smiler.

"Avery?"

I whipped around at the sound of my name and almost smacked noses with Niall.

"Hi! I was just asking the receptionist for your room number to come see you since you left in such a hurry." I shot a triumphant look at the receptionist.

"Here, I can take you up." Niall smiled and linked arms with me.

We walked hand-in-hand to the elevator and made our way up to the seventeenth floor.

"Okay my room is over here to the right." Niall lead the way and slid the plastic key into the scanner to open the door.

"Oh, the lads were in here before, but I guess they went to get breakfast or something." Niall looked around.

At the mention of breakfast, my stomach growled quite loudly.

"Woah." Niall laughed, "someone's hungry."

"Well, know that you mention it..." I smiled.

"I'm gonna go get us some food, just wait here." Niall walked out of the room as I sunk down onto the bed.

I yawned and pressed my head against the pillow. I needed a little nap.

***

"Mmmmmhh" My eyelids fluttered open, not wanting to end the dream of Niall and I making out on the beach.

Maybe its not a dream? I awoke with someone's lips against mine, presumabley Niall's.

Ugh he was such a good kisser. I kept my eyes closed and deepened the kiss. Suddenly he pulled away, and I heard a door slam before I could even open my eyes.

"Huh?" I looked around before, hopping off the bed and opening the door. 

"Hey babe, sorry I took so long." Niall appeard out of nowhere walking into the room with two huge trays of food.

"Wait you, you weren't just here?" My chest tightened.

"No?" He gave me a weird look.

"Oh, I must've um heard someone else erm something." I plastered a smile onto my face. 

If Niall was getting us breakfast, then who did I just kiss?
