She's Not Afraid

Chapter 7

***That Night***

"Wake up." a husky voice said.

"Go away." I mumbled.

"Come on Love." Niall said sleepily.

I groaned sitting up in the backseat of the cab.I opened my eyes and waited a few seconds for them to adjust.

"Where are we?" I asked looking at the large house in front of us.

"One of my mates owns this old house and invited me over tonight for some fun." Niall replied getting out o the cab.

"Am I the only girl?" I asked.

"Nah,they all brought their girlfriends too." Niall said handing the driver our fare.

"Thank you." the man said.

"Oi,can you pick us up around eight tomorrow?" Niall asked before he left.

"Sure thing." the driver said.

"Thanks." Niall replied before he drove away.

"Well lets go!" I said excitedly.

"Oh,before I forget,I kind of told my mates that youre my girlfriend but no leaks to the press." Niall said quickly biting his lower lip.

"Thats fine." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"Alrighty lets go have some real fun." Niall said leading me up to the house.

Niall rapped on the large wooden door twice.After a few seconds,a tall brunette opened the door and smiled.

"Andrew,Niall's here!" she yelled into the house."Come in."

"Ally,this is Drew." Niall said.

"Hi!" Ally said excitedly.

"Hey." I replied smiling.

"Come on in guys." a tall boy said from behind Ally.

"After you." Niall said gesturing for me to go first.

I guess he didnt want me to run.

"Im Andrew." the boy said in a thick British accent.

"Drew." I replied smiling.

"Cool.The rest of the lads are upstairs." Andrew said to Niall.

"You can follow me Drew." Ally said.

I looked at Niall expectantly an he nodded.I followed Ally to a room off to the left where a group of girls were waiting.

"So youre Niall's girlfriend?" one asked excitedly.

I nooded my head slowly afraid of what would might come out if I opened my mouth.

"Dont talk much huh?" another asked.

"Not really." I replied shrugging my shoulders.

"You should,you have a really nice voice." someone else said.

"Thanks." I said blushing.

"Oh sorry Drew!This is Gabrielle,Lacy,Sandra,and Maggie." Ally said pointing to each girl as she said their names.

"Hi." they all chorused.

I smiled and sat on a the couch next to Gabrielle.The other girls sat on the floor gossiping about random things,rarely bringing Gabrielle and I into the conversation.

"You arent really his girlfriend are you?" Gabrielle whispered.

"How did you know?" I asked surprised.

"The way you answered when they asked.It was like you werent sure." Gabrielle replied simply.

"Dont tell anyone,please." I pleaded.

"Tell me whats really going on and I wont." She replied smirking.

"It's complicated." I said truthfully.

"Like fuck buddies complicated or kidnapper complicated." She asked.

"Kidnapper complicated." I replied without hesitation.

"So how did you two meet?" Gabrielle asked.

"Uh....we met at the coffe shop I worked at in Boston." I lied.

"Then he brought you back here." Gabrielle said simply.

"Exactly." I lied.

"Hey girls." a tall blonde said as he sat in a chair across the room.

"David." Maggie snarled.

"Calm down babe." David said putting his hands up in defense.

"Why arent you upstairs with the others?" Sandra asked.

"Theyre coming down here in a minute." David replied winking.

"What a perve." I mumbled.

"I heard that." David said pointing at me.

"You were meant to." I said sassily.

"Me-ow." David joked.

"There you are!" a tall redhead yelled.

"Here I am!" David yelled back.

"The others will be down in a second." the redhead said.

"No,we'll be down right now." Andrew said.

"Ok,theyll be down now." the redhead corrected.

"Ladies." a dark haired boy said seductively.

"Marcus." Lacy replied.

"Maggie." the redhead boy said sitting next to her.

"Landon." she replied giggling.

"Hey Drew." Niall said sitting next to me."Guys this is Drew."

"Hey." the boys all chorused.

I noticed a boy woth dirty blonde hair sit next to Gabrielle.He wrapped his arm around her shoulders as someone started playing a guitar.I looked around surprised and found that the person was Niall.I didnt even notice that he had brought a guitar.After a while I learned that the dirty blonde boy's name was Finn.He was a really nice guy to start a conversation with.Finn and Landon joked the whole night causing everyone else to laugh along.At around midnight I had started to doze off and I think Niall had noticed.

"Come on Love." Niall said standing up from the couch.

I stood up shakily and followed Niall upstairs to a guest room.I slipped into the large bed and felt the bed sink behind me.I turned to find Niall half-asleep behind me.I smiled sleepily before turning back around.Niall's arms found their way around my waist and I quickly fell asleep comfortably in his arms.
