As I followed Niall out the door, I could sense that something was feeling a bit off. Like I found it harder to look at him when I was talking to him; did this have to do with what happened earlier? No, no, no... I didn't want our friendship to change. One of the things about our friendship was that we were never afraid to share our thoughts with each other... Why should that change now? The best way to figure out what was going on was to just come straight out with my question.

"Niall?"

"Ally?"

"Is something wrong?"

His face flushed red. "Oh uhm no, I'm just thinking... About... Whether what I'm wearing is good enough. I mean you look really nice and I don't know if what I'm wearing is nice enough."

"Niall, you look fine. I would've told you if you needed to be dressed up more, and girls are supposed to look better than the guys right?" I laughed at the last comment I made. Of course I made him laugh too. I was good at that if I do say so myself.

Although Niall did say that nothing was wrong, I could tell that something was bugging him. I had a feeling that it had to do with the fact that we almost kissed in his bedroom earlier. The weird thing was, I now wished that I hadn't looked away like I had in the moment. I actually wanted to kiss him now, but I was too afraid to bring that up.

•Niall's POV•

Oh my God. Why can't I just tell Ally what's going on?! Like I know the reason why we're acting so awkward, it was because we were getting so close in my room before. I know I leaned in to kiss her, I know she was leaning in too. I just don't understand why. We never felt anything for each other before, why would this change now?

The walk to Shelby's house was pretty quiet. We weren't really saying much, I think both of us were just thinking about what happened a lot. There were a few times where our hands bumped into each other. I felt a strong urge to just grab ahold of Ally's hand, but I decided against it; things were just too awkward.

By the end of tonight I wanted to get past this all though. I wouldn't be able to handle this if things were like this between me and Ally for much longer.

•Ally's POV•

Once we got to Shelby's house, we stood on the doorstep for a second searching for the doorbell. It seemed that we both spotted it at the same time; our hands reached for it and collided.

"Oh, uhm, sorry," I said, pushing the doorbell. I could feel my cheeks getting hot, and his face was pretty pink too. I wished that this awkwardness was gone soon.

Shelby's brother was the one to open the door. "Hi guys. They're all downstairs."

"Thanks," I replied with a smile.

Niall and I walked into the house and headed downstairs.

"Heeeeeeyyyy guuuuyyss!!!" Shelby waved at us and smiled. "You two are late you know!"

I laughed and said, "Sorry, the walk took a little longer than expected."

After this, we basically sat around and talked for awhile. The pop and chips and candy sure got us all hyped up, so we all were acting a bit crazy.

"Heeeyy," Shelby said loudly once again, "who wants to play truth or dare spin the bottle style?!"

Everyone nodded in approval. We all gathered in a circle and sat down. Shelby started it all of by spinning the bottle first. It landed on Ben. After Ben did his dare of taking his shirt off (understandable because he probably had the best body in our grade), it was his turn to spin. After a few people had their turns, Nicole took hers and her spin landed on Niall.

•Niall's POV•

Shit. I was hoping it wouldn't land on me. Nicole is known for being ridiculously good at this game, having both great dares and truth questions.

"Niall, truth or dare?" She asked me with a smirk.
