*Beep, Beep, Beep* My 6:30 alarm went off. 

"Ughh, suppose i better get up and get ready for work" I moaned as i forced myself out of bed.

I went and put on my work uniform and put on my name badge. I put my hair into a bun and put on some make-up. 

I ran downstairs and got my work bag, i put in my lunch and a jacket. 

"Mum, im off to work now, see you later" I shouted to my mum, who was in the kitchen.

"Okay dear, if you see Niall, tell him, his dad is trying to get hold of him" My mum shouted back.

"Okay" I shouted before i left. 

* * * * 

I had 30 minutes left at work before my shift was over. The shop was empty, apart from me being here. 

I started to read the paper and then the shop door bell went off. That freaking door bell, it goes off every time the door opens and closes. I carried on reading the paper, not paying much attention. 

"Lea, didn't know you were working" A familiar Irish voice said.

I looked up and it was Niall and Preston. 

"Oh hiya guys" I said as i hugged Niall and then Preston. "I see he is keeping you on your toes, aye prest"I said to Preston. 

"He sure is Leah" Preston joked.

"Anyway, what can i do for you?" I asked Niall.

"The paper please Lea, also what you doing later?" Niall asked.

"Sure, and later? nothing i think" I said as i gave him the paper.

"Put it on my tab yeah? cool, fancy coming round mine for a few drinks, im having a BBQ" Niall replied as it put the paper in his back pocket. 

"Sure, BBQ and drinks sound good" I replied. "Oh you dad rang my mum, apparently hes trying to get hold of you?" I added.

"Oh right okay, i haven't had a call from him, ill ring him later" Niall said.

"Okay, well i will see you later" I said before Niall and Preston walked out of the shop.

I've just finished getting ready for Nialls BBQ. I love hanging out with him. 

I hear a car pull up outside my house. 

"LEAH, NIALL'S HERE" My mum shouts from downstairs.

I run downstairs, gabbing my bag and jacket on the way down. 

I get into Nialls car with him and then he drives me to his house. 

We get to his house and then we walking into his back garden. 

"Hi everyone" I say as i follow behind Niall.

"Hi Love, how are you?" Louis says as we hug. 

"I'm good, how are you all?" I asked back.

"We are good thanks" Liam says, as we hug. 

"Nice to see you darling" Harry said as we hugged.

"Niall, wheres the food, im starving?" I asked as he stood at the BBQ.

"God, you can tell shes Nialler's friend" Louis joked.

"Oi mate, we both like food, so what?" Niall joked. "Its coming Lea" He added.

Harry went and got everyone a drink and we chilled outside, Niall started a bonfire and we all chilled. Niall played a few songs on his guitar and we all just had a lovely time. 

* * * * 

It was now 10pm and everyone had gone home, it was just me and Niall outside, chilling. 

"Gosh it's getting chilly" I said, freezing cold, trying to get warm by the fire.

"Here, have my jacket" Niall said while taking his jumper off.

I put his jumper on and got warm. 

"Go on then Niall, sing us a song" I said, listening to him playing guitar. 

Niall started to play "Little Things"

"You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you,

And you'll never treat yourself right darlin' but I want you to,

If I let you knoooow I'm here for you,

Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you, " He sung.

Me and Niall sang the rest of 'Little Things' before going back into his apartment. 

"Do you want to stay the night?" Niall asked.

"Um, sure" I said. 

"You can have my bed, ill sleep on the sofa" He said.

"Niall, we are best friends, you don't have to sleep on the sofa" I said. 

"Oh right, do you mind if i sleep in my bed too then?" He asked.

"Of-course i don't mind, we have done it loads" I said. 

We both went into his bedroom and he gave me some of his shorts and a t-shirt to wear to bed as i wan't planning on staying. 

Me and Niall got into bed together and cuddled. 

He gave the best cuddles. 

We fell asleep together.

 It was just like old times.
