Right Now

Chapter 30

The morning came in with a bright sunlight shining through the windows of my room.

I could feel my body intertwined with Niall's as he lightly snored and patted my hair.

"Morning." He grumbled into my hair.

"Morning." I kissed his cheeks as I slowly started to get up from the bed.

After showering, I brushed my teeth and combed my rats nest of hair and changed into a black and white striped shirt from Topshop and black disco styled shorts like Taylor Swift with mint blue flats and a mint blue collar necklace.

"You look nice today." Niall looked somewhat surprised with how I look.

"Well today is our date and I wanted to look nice." I scoffed, slightly annoyed.

Louis entered our room to remind us that breakfast was ready, leaving me to follow him and Niall to change.

I smelt bacon and eggs.

"Very nice, Liam. I approve." I sat down next to Julia, who was dressed in blue jeans and an army green shirt a light with paisley style pattern all over it.

Julia grumbled in agreement about the food.

Liam smiled and continued food making.

A head of curls appeared in the kitchen with a white robe and matching slippers. He slid in next to me mumbling good morning in his morning voice and grabbing a plate of food.

"I'm guessing someone didn't sleep that well." I smirked at him and he glared back in annoyance.

My expression softened as he glared and I stared directly into his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Harry. I never wanted it to be like this." I grabbed his hand.

His glare subsided and he smiled genuinely whilst squeezing my hand.

"Belly?" Niall emerged from the doorway with a jealous look on his face. "Ready to go?" Louis looked at me knowingly and winked.

"Oh. Yeah, sure. Don't you want to eat first?" I asked while standing up from the table.

"We can stop by Starbucks on the way there." He made his way toward me, glaring at Harry and grabbing my hand.

"Well, bye everyone!" I shouted behind me as I exited the house.

_*_

We drove for what seems like a couple hours.

I complained every four seconds groaning an ARE WE THERE YET? making Niall chuckle and shake his head.

We pulled up to Brighton Pier, a place that I told him I wanted to visit ever since we came to England. It was in one of my favorite Ed Sheeran songs: Be Like You.

*Everything will brighten up, If we go to Brighton I'll take you along the pier.*

"Niall! THIS IS PERFECT." I squealed giddily while running over to his side of the car and kissing him.

"I knew you would like it." He took my hand in his hand and we strolled down the pier.

He was truly perfect. We bought pretzels and looked around. We even went to a little store that sells knick knacks and got me a little penguin statue thing that was the size of a softball. I named it Lovelace because it reminded me of Happy Feet. We didn't even get spotted by paparazzi, thank you to Tulisa for also being at the pier with her boyfriend.

After a quick lunch at a cafe near by, we packed our knick knacks and headed somewhere else.

"I'm not sure how you can top that, but you can try." I said cooly as I looked out the window.

"Just you wait." He shook his head and smiled.

-*- (a couple hours later)

We came upon a little field filled with other couples with blankets and picnic food.

"Aw, this is nice." I cooed while Niall pulled out secretly stored foods an blankets from the back of the car.

"It gets better." He pulled on my hand and lead us towards the front of the group.

I could make out a microphone stand and a person singing with his guitar and ginger hair.

No he didn't.

I had to cover my mouth from screaming as Niall nodded his head towards Ed. Ed winked at me and head nodded back to Niall.

"This. is. amazing." I breathed out the word amazing as I sat down with my boyfriend in front of my idol.

We ate little heart shaped sandwichs and chips (krisps as the locals say) and just listened to his great music.

"This next song is for a very special lady from a very desperate irishmen."

Ed looked straight at us and started to sing:

"Settle down with me. Cover me up, Cuddle me in. Lay down with me. And hold me in your arms."

I started to notice the other people slow dancing around us.

Niall offered me his hand.

"Niall. I can't" I whispered.

"Why not?" He looked slightly hurt.

"No, no, I mean I can't dance." I nervously muttered.

His stony expression faltered as he lead me in our dance.

"It isn't so bad. You are a great dancer, you know." He whispered in my ear.

I giggled at his completely wrong remark. I am a horrible dancer, truly.

Niall began humming in my ear as Ed continued singing.

I wish this moment could-

-*-

"-last forever." I finished telling Julia the story of out first official date.

She looked pleased and gave me a big hug.

I really did wish this could last forever. This summer. This moment.

My moment.
