Cowell's Daughter

Chapter 3

Niall's POV

"Niall?... Hello?" That was Ellie voice. Was I in the hospital?

I opened my eyes and I wasn't in the hospital. That was just a dream. I looked around the limo and everyone left but Elle.

She grabbed my hand and yank me out of the limo. Paparazzi was everywhere. Where are we?

"Smile and play along." She whispered to me. She still held my hand though. I felt something funny shoot up to my arm. 

We started walking down the carpet and smile. After that was over, Elle let go of me and walked up front. It felt like my heart stopped.

I caught up with the boys. We were heading toward a table. Still don't know where we are.

"Where are we?" I asked the boys.

"We're at Elle's friend's mom's birthday." Liam answered.

"Why do we have to dress formal though?" I ask.

"It's a formal birthday dinner." He replied back.

That will do.

We were seated at the table eating. I was seated next to Elle's friend, Emma. She was a nice person, but talked non-stop. I couldn't stand it anymore.

"So I was walking down the aisle and I found this bea-"

"Sorry for the interruption, Emma, but excuse me."

"Oh, its okay." She replied.

I left the table and went outside for fresh air. Finally peace.

Elle's POV

I saw Niall got up from his seat and exit the building. I had to know what's wrong with him. I excuse myself from the table and went out. I saw Niall leaning his back on the wall with his eyes close. I decided to scare him.

Yeah, I know I hate him and all, but can't I at least scare him?

I screamed for only Niall to hear. I bend down until I was laying on the ground. I heard footsteps and they were Niall's.

"Elle! What's wrong?!" He said with panic in his voice. 

Score.

"Can't br-" I closed my eyes.

"Elle!"

I saw him have his back on me. I got up from the floor trying not to make any noises. Once I was fully standing, lets make him more scare.

"BOO!" I screamed in his ear.

He jumped up and stared at me with fear in his eyes.

"Elle? I thought you were hurt!"

"I'm not. I was scaring you. Did you see your face, it was priceless." I giggled.

"Elle! Don't ever do that to me again." Now he was laughing.

"No promises."

We laughed for awhile until people were walking out the building.

"Niall! We missed the cake!"

His eyes went wide-eye. He pulled my arm with him and we ran into the building.

The cake was gone.

"Hey guys! We save you cake!" Louis yelled.

"Cake!" Niall and I yell in an unison.

Niall POV

Home at last. Dinner was fun.

Now we are watching a movie. Paranormal Activity 3.

The movie started and Elle was already scared. I wrapped my arm around her waist and she cuddle me.

She screamed a few times until later she was silent for 30 minutes. I looked down and she was sleeping peacefully.

She look so cute. Like an angel.

Elle's P.O.V

It was still dark and the movie ended. I was still on couch, about to move until I heard talking and it sounded like Niall ...and Zayn?

"Zayn, I like her but I'm not sure if she likes me back. Plus, I broke a promise with her back in Ireland."

He still likes me? I  thought he forgot all about me? I thought he moved on already.

"Then make a date or start as friends or something." He replied.

Date? Seriously.

I got up from the couch and walked past them without saying a little something.

"Date, never happening. Friends, maybe."

I ran up the stairs into my room and plop down on my cozy bed and instantly fell back to sleep.

I can be one stubborn girl.
