time to begin [n.h]

seventeen; goodnight texts

They were all still over when the clock hit 7:00 PM, I didn’t have the courage to kick them out and honestly, I don’t want them to leave. It’s nice having friends over.

Liam and I talked with the other two for what seems like forever. I felt closer to all of them, like we were bonding over pizza and “coke”. It was really nice in the long run.

 

The boys shared a pizza and Maddy and I shared one. The boys’ pizza had a ton of weird stuff on it like peppers and hamburger. I didn’t even know they put hamburger on pizza; but the whole pizza looks absolutely disgusting. I decided that I wanted to try it because it looked disgusting to I took a bite out of Liam’s slice and almost instantly my mouth was on fire. So I ran to the kitchen and shoved a piece of bread in my mouth while the others laughed at me and continued eating their pizza. I honestly have no clue how they can eat it.

Maddy left soon after, saying that she couldn’t leave Clark home alone for long or else he’ll roll up in his duvet like a caterpillar and go on Tumblr while shoving his face with pickles. The only reason why that’s disturbing is because Clark hates pickles. Like hates pickles.

 

Just an hour after that, Liam went to the bathroom, leaving me alone with Niall. He moved over so he’s sitting next to me. I assume it’s just so it’s not so awkward when we talk since he’s on the other side of the room. But then he looked at me and trust me, he looked terrified.

“I need to tell you something,” he said to me.

“Go on….” I say with a smile. Maybe that will make him feel more comfortable.

 

“I…I think I’m in love with you.” He says quickly. My smiles fades just a second after and I feel that stupid sympathetic look come on to my face. I rest my hand on his leg, making him look up at me.

How could he be in love with me?!

He gets a different look on his face as he looks straight into his eyes and just then, I realise how beautiful his are. He places a hand on my cheek and the other on my neck and before I know it his lips are on mine. The first thing I notice is that his lips are soft. I don’t mean to, but I kiss him back which only encourages him further. I’m a terrible person, I’m absolutely awful. Just from this one kiss, I can feel everything he feels for me. I finally pull away and look down at the floor.

“Liam can’t catch us.” I say, squeezing my eyes shut. He plants a light kiss on the lips before moving back to his original spot just as Liam walks back in. So close… I put a smile on my face as Liam sits down next to me. I glance at Niall to see he’s looking at me. I give him the ‘we’ll talk later’ look and he nods and looks away before standing up.

“We should probably get going; we have a meeting tomorrow.”

“Okay, I’ll see you later!” I respond.

“Goodbye, Abigail.” Liam says, kissing me on the lips just like Niall had done only a minute before. Niall gets the jealous look on his face so I walk over to him and kiss him on the cheek.
