Next thing you know, we have kissed for about a minute. She's a good kisser.
We both pull away and gasp for air. I stare at her lips, they are plump. I then place a small kiss on her lips again, I can't get enough.
"Niall" she said softly
"Mmm"
She didn't say anything else, just my name.
"Monique" I said and stared into her eyes. I saw her cheeks turn red, it's cute.
"I remember when we first met, believe it or not...I had my eyes locked on you since that day"
"You have beautiful eyes Niall"
"Thanks, you taste like cupcakes" I smiled at her, she just smiled at the ground with her red little cheeks. Maybe I'll start taking this to the next level, I think she likes me.
"Hey Monique, wanna get something to eat?"
"Sure" she smiled at me, I got up and held my hand out to help her get up.
Her touch, it's special....it's the only touch I want to feel.
I didn't hold her hand because I was too nervous, I thought maybe she'll let go.
We walked down the hallway, once we got to pass the receptionist....she said "feeling better?"
I nodded "yea"
All I could be thinking about was that kiss, how much I wanted to do it again.
I couldn't stop, no joke. We didn't talk the whole to the cafeteria, I think we were both thinking the same thing, the kiss.
"Oh! My favorite!!" Monique said, phew....we can talk now. She headed to the salad bar, girls. I walk next to her and ask "Monique what's your fave? There's so many" I kinda stayed close to her so our elbows can touch.
"I love chicken potato salad, potato salad, regular salad, macaroni salad...." She said as she put all of the types of salad on her plate. I smiled "Monique, all you're gonna eat is salad?" I laughed a little, my words came out all shaky. She stopped to look at me, she was serious then couldn't bare longer and broke a smile, I felt my cheeks burning, killer smile. "This is my favorite, besides it will go good with Pizza"
"Ok, get as much as you want, I'm paying" I said, she smiled....I know she wants more.

We went to weigh our plates, I got two sandwiches and a slice of pizza, I wanted to copy Monique.
"Put you're plate here" the employee said, and Monique did so.
She pushed some buttons on the computer screen. I crossed my right arm and the left one I had close to my mouth, I was waiting to see how much Monique's plate weighed.
She looked at me with a grin, we both waited for the same thing. I let out a small laugh, the wait was intense.
"4 and a half pounds, the price is right here" she pointed out the price.
I let it go, I let my laugh control me. I laughed and leaned forward, clapped my hands and leaned back a little. Monique just smiled and shook her head, she took her plate and said "you're paying" she smiled, I love it.
I calmed my self down a bit as I talk, I laughed again "it's because....your so small....and you can't eat....4 pounds" I lost it when I said 4 pounds
"Niall!" She whispered but raised her voice "control your machine gun"
She made me laugh more when she said that.
"I don't know who he is, I just know he's paying for my food" Monique said as she left me to pay and sat down.
"Here, keep the change" I gave her $20, I wanted to go quickly with Monique so I didn't want to wait for my change.
"Thank you" she said and opened the register
I took my plate quickly and walked over to the table.
I sat down across from her, she was chewing her potato salad.
"Wow" I said
"What" she covered her mouth
"This is like a date" she stopped chewing

Monique's POV:

This is like a date.....is like a date........like a date.....a date.......date. That's all that ringed in my head, date date date. Date with Niall. Date with Liam. Date with Niall. Date with Liam. Oh god. It's a good thing you know because it's Niall, I think I'm in love with him......but since I've known them for years, when I first saw them....Liam was the one who caught my eye...since then he's been the love of my life......but Niall...I fell for him too.
"This is" his smile is perfect.
"So Monique, tell me about.........whatever" he said. I swallowed my potato salad and went on to my egg salad. "Niall, tell me what's wrong with Harry"
He took time to finish the food in his mouth, "he's going crazy, no joke. He's aggressive, even more when he wakes up from a nap."
"How?"
"When he sleeps, the doctor said that there is a high chance he might not wake up.........."
"No"
"He sleeps a lot, he's always tired and passing out quickly, I don't want him to sleep but I can't stop him from closing his eyes. Each time he sleeps I wonder if that's his last time, I stare at his stomach....I watch it go up and down hoping it won't stop"
"Damn that's scary"
"It is, I'm always taking care of him. If he wakes up...he becomes violent, I've noticed that it gets worse every time he wakes up"
"How violent does he get? What does he do?"
"He wakes up screaming for help, he's scared, he rips off the needles injected in his arm and he bleeds"
"He rips them off? Just like that?!"
"Yea, like a bandaid, I try to calm him down...it works.....but I'm not sure I can calm him down if he gets worse"
"How long is he staying here?"
"Since only 4 people have that disease, they are letting him go in two days"
"What?!" I covered my mouth because I was chewing
"I know it's freaking retarded, he could hurt himself......it could be fatal, and I have to take care of him"
"Wow, I feel hella bad for Harry...I care about him, he's cute" I just wanted to put it out there, because he is.
"Aw, yea...he's very talented" I can tell that he's a bit disturbed because I said Harry is cute.
"Damn Niall, what does he scream for help?"
"He yells help me, don't hurt me, go away, leave, help, Niall"
"What is he so scared of?" He just smiled at me, not saying a word.
"You ask a lot of questions Monique" I love it when he says my name, I get butterflies every time. "His ex girlfriend, Sarah, is very powerful she has a lot of money, she threatened Harry when he broke up with her to not fall in love with someone else or she would hold him hostage"
I thought about what he said, it sounded a bit weird.
"Can she hold him hostage?"
"She can, it's crazy you won't believe it"
"So Harry's in love?"
"Yea, and he's scared to death that he'll be held hostage soon, because Sarah already knows he's in love"
"With Alize"
He shook his head, it's obvious.

"It's funny, because you two have secret crushes, it's not hard to hide" he smiled
"What?!" I said like if I didn't know what he was talking about
"I just want to know who you like" he said. Instantly my cheeks turned red, butterflies and everything.
"Well, ok" she said
"You'll tell me?!" He was excited
"No, I just said ok......"
"Oh........man, I'll just find out myself" he smiled at me.

Once we were done eating, Niall decided to show me Harry.
"Are you sure Niall? I mean....the doctors kicked you out"
"It's fine, just say hi if he wakes up" I was kinda scared because he said that Harry gets aggressive when he wakes up. Niall slowly opened the door and held my wrist. His touch....is so....soft and electric.
As I walked in I saw Harry sleeping on the bed, with tubes and everything....he looked like if he was going to die and those machines helped him stay alive.

"Poor guy" I lowered my voice
"I know" Niall stood by me with his hands in his pockets
"Wanna wake him up?" I said
"No, what are you thinking?" He chuckled a bit
"Just making sure so you won't wake him up"
''oh.....yeah right"

It was silent for a moment because I wanted to look at Harry. I was thinking, How did I even get to this point in my life right now? I'm far from home and I'm here with Harry styles. If I never have taken the wrong flight, I most likely would have never meet the One Direction boys. I feel my whole life changing, should I live here? I feel like the bond that has been created between us is strong, we are family.
'Niall.....what does that mean?'' I asked backing away from Harry and Niall stepped closer to look at the monitor
"oh no" he said soft;y
"what?"
"His breathing is changing........"
"and......?"
"..............He's starting to wake up"

I got scared.
