A Thousand Ships (A Niall Horan Fanfiction)

Chapter Six

Chapter Six: Faces in Screens

(Niall's P.O.V.)

After about a week the hate died down a lot. The fans that hated on Belle slowly stayed quiet and those that liked her began to become more outspoken.

"Ah she's so cute!"

"She's so lucky she gets to be Niall's princess!"

"I love her style!"

"I'm glad Niall finally found someone"

I smiled when I scrolled through twitter now. The worst was over. We could all be happy now.

Belle and I skyped a lot. Constantly, actually. She was so adorable I loved being able to see her face when we talked. We skyped when it was just us, we skyped when she was with her friends, when I was with mine, or both. We had loads to talk about and sometimes we even just had our screens on while we did other things. It was really great.

My laptop started ringing with a skype call. It was Belle.

"Hey princess," I smiled at her.

"Hey Niall!"

"How was your day?"

"Gooooood."

"Detail."

"Fine," she stuck her tongue out at me, "I went over to Jack's and we all had a water balloon fight. Then his mom made us lunch and we watched a movie but we got kicked out because we were still wet so we had a tanning party but I got burnt as you can see."

She was right. Her face was completely red.

"And then I came home and had dinner with my parents. And now I'm talking to you."

I chuckled.

"Alright."

"Your turn!"

"Okay. Hmmm... we had today off."

"Ooh! Did you relax?"

"Sort of. We went sight seeing, well just Liam and I cause Louis was with Eleanor, Zayn slept in, and Harry had a girl over last night."

"Wait what?"

"What?"

"What about Harry?"

I saw her face fall when she realized what I meant.

"What's wrong?"

"No it's just... Zo really likes Harry."

"Oh right..."

"Oh my gosh. Okay, don't tell her about stuff like this okay? She's so sensitive about it. It kills me sometimes."

"Alright I won't. Maybe you should talk to her though. Harry really isn't the type of person that should date people your..."

"My what?"

"Age."

"Are you saying I'm too young?"

"No no! I just mean Harry sleeps around."

"Wow. Okay. Um.. Right! So what did you do?"

"Yeah! We went shopping a little and we watched a movie or two. Umm and we went out to dinner. Yeah that was it."

We fell into conversation about other things and eventually I had to go.

I called her. The skype thing rang for a long time and I was about to hang up when she answered. I could hear tons of giggling. I suddenly regretted calling her at that moment. She was with her friends. And that meant girly torture.
