I tapped with my pen on the table. Only three minutes until summer started. I had been waiting this for a the whole year now. Yikes, I hated school.
‘Hey, only a few minutes left!’ my friend, Anne, whispered. I gave her a big smile.
‘Miss Henderson, it’s only a few minutes, don’t tal..’
And there it is, the sound of my release. Everyone jumped up and quickly ran away.
‘Finally!’ Anne said and she sighed exaggerated. ‘We survived another school year!’
‘I know! Lovely..’ I said but only I thought about was that I could spent so much time with Niall, one of my best friends.
‘Uhu, I know what you’re thinking about’ she said and looked at me with a grin.
‘Yeah.. Yeah.. Stop it you!’ I said when I started to blush.
‘Kylee and Niall.. Well that’s sounds pretty good.’
‘Really?!’ I giggled.
‘Yeah.. Maybe. Do you know what sounds good too? Anne and Liam.. Liam and Anne.’ She giggled too. It was very crowded on the school ground. Everyone stared at something and were making pictures. A few girls were screaming and giggling. O god, no.
I walked through the crowd and saw who everyone was staring at.
Niall was leaning to the fence while sitting on his bike. I slowly walked to Niall and observed him quickly. He wore jeans and a white shirt that looked so sexy on him. His muscles came out very well and he even looked a little bit more brown and white trainers. He looked at his mobile and was too busy typing to notice me.
I always said to the boys that I didn’t want them to pick me up at school because everyone would look at me and would gossip about me. But I wouldn’t see them for a few months and I didn’t care that much anymore.
‘Hi, Niall. What are you doing here?’ I said.
He looked up, a bit scared, because he didn’t see me coming. ‘Hi! Well, I thought I would pick you up.’
I looked at my schoolmates, who stared at us in silent by a distance of 20 metres and they didn’t move, all waiting to get the right picture.
‘Yeah, I’m sorry. You didn’t want that.. but I got a surprise for you!’ he said and smiled from ear to ear.
‘Where are we going then?’
‘To my house?’
‘Yes.’ He said with a big grin.
He got off his bike and we started to walk. My house was just a few blocks away.
‘Oh, really? –‘ I smiled ‘- is the surprise from you or from someone else?’
‘It’s a surprise.. Duh. I’m not supposed to tell you.’ He smiled even bigger.
‘Ah, please!’
‘No.’
‘Nandos!’
I got him, I thought. He couldn’t say no to that! But then I saw that smile he gave me.
‘No.’
‘Wow. It must be a good surprise then.’
‘It is!’
I was getting more nervous, especially when I looked into his eyes and saw those blue eyes. But then I saw him getting more serious.
‘Hey Kylee. Don’t be so nervous. It’s going to be great...’
When we got to my house I couldn’t open the door because I was too nervous. My hand was shaking so the key did too.
Niall laughed. ‘Come here.’ I gave the key and he unlocked it.
I held my breath. Louis was standing there with flowers in his hand. O god.. No. Not Louis. What am I going to say?
‘O god.. I’m sorry. No. NO. I’m not the surprise.’ He said.
I tried not to sigh, because it wouldn’t be fair to him. He was such a sweetheart. ‘Well thank you, I now know exactly what you think of me.’
‘Sorry, I didn’t mean th-‘
‘Louis..’ Niall said.
‘Hahaha, I was just kidding babe. Your surprise is over there.’
I heard some noise in the background. A chair that was being pushed over, a couple of running footsteps and finally, a door slammed.
‘O my god.’ Niall said.
‘There’s something wrong?’ I said. I looked at him, he was thinking whether we should go in or not.
‘I’m going..’ Louis said and ran out the door.
Niall grabbed my hand and led me to the living room. I felt his hands shaking.
We stood by the door. ‘Oh the surprise is in the living room?’
He just nodded. I was still hoping it was him, but it couldn’t be. Because there will be someone standing behind the door.
He opened the door slowly. ‘I hope you like it..’
I walked in and put my hands on my mouth. ‘Wow..’
I saw a million of stars flash in the darkness. When I saw everything clearer, I saw that these were candles. Candles were all over the place. On the table, on the windowpanes, the couch was surrounded by rose peddals.
‘Oh my god. Is this real?’
‘Yes.’ I heard from the other side of the room. The voice came closer to me. I saw his blonde hair, his blue eyes... his smile. I quickly turned around and didn’t saw Niall there. He was standing in front of me. I think I was so into the lights that I didn’t notice he moved to the couch.
‘Do you like it?’ Niall said.
I couldn’t say nothing and I couldn’t even nod for a while.
‘Do you like it?’ He asks again, now a little nervous.
I nodded and smiled. I stared into his eyes as he came closer to me. I didn’t say anything, neither did he. He put his hand on my cheek.
‘I love you, Kylee.’ His hand was moving to my chin and he pulled me closer. He stared into my eyes waiting for my reaction.
‘I lov..I love you too.’ I said eventually.
He gave me the biggest smile and pulled me even more closer. He pressed his lips onto mine that leaded to a passionate kiss. His hands were moving to my bottom then he moved them to my hair.
I put my both hands on his cheeks.
‘I love you’, he gave me a kiss and smiled, ‘I love you.’
