Changing Everything

Chapter 6

I remember Niall had said that once. Panic set in. Was I going to meet Niall too? Paul had said a couple of people wanted to meet me. Would Liam be there too? What would he think of me? Would he be a regular guy just like the others? We had reached a different blue door to that which we entered in, by the time my thoughts had calmed in my head. Harry pushed the door open to reveal a stark white room just like the corridor, except this room was consumed by three large, comfy looking settees, a coffee table and a large mirror placed on the far wall. I had stepped up next to Madison and so we both entered the room at the same time as Harry held the door and Liam followed behind.

"Welcome to our humble abode!" He cackled when closing the door. I don't know what I had expected Harry to be like in person. All I knew was, he was far more handsome, kind, gentle, funny and attentive than the media had ever portrayed. He gets so much bad publicity for being a womaniser but he deserves none of it in my opinion. He was the most unpretentious 19 year old I have ever met. He is just trying to live his famous life but trying to be normal at the same time.

"Have you ever used this room?" Madison questioned looking about at its cleanliness.

"Well this is our first day and night here so far so we haven't been in here very much. I know Zayn loves the mirror though." Liam mused.

"Oh we can imagine!" Madison and I said in unison after giving each other one of our special friendship glances. These looks could only be understood by myself, Madison and Jenna. We know each other so well we can tell what each of us is thinking by the tiniest eye movement, a pouting of the lips or a flick of an eyebrow. It lead often lead to onlookers being rather confused. Looking back towards Harry and Liam I could tell that was exactly the case. I burst out laughing and Madison shortly followed. Full on belly laughing . The kind that make you have to clench your stomach to stop the ache and your eyes stream with water.

The door creaked open and in walked Niall with a tray of fish and chips in his hand, unnoticed by myself and Madison.

"What the hell is going..." Niall 's twang irish accent cut through the room but his voice trailed off when the first thing he noticed was me. Me, with a red and tear stained face. We stopped laughing and stood up straight to see who had come in. But that much was obvious from the lush sound that had escaped his mouth seconds earlier. I looked up and came face to face with him. I smiled shyly. Niall Horan really was a beauty. His soft blonde hair lay flat under his SnapBack and piercing blue eyes searched me. I felt like I had just been in total darkness for the 17 years of my life I had lived and now I was finally seeing daylight. It was blinding. My attraction towards Niall blossomed. Liam sensed this and stepped forward, carefully placing his hand on my lower back. Niall turned a steel gaze to him and then back to me. His eyes changed on returning to my face. They seemed brighter. More full of life. I stepped away from Liam's hand. I wasn't trying to be unkind and when I looked at him I could see he was hurt but I didn't want to cause trouble between him and Niall.

I couldn't help but laugh at Niall though.

"Chip?" He offered me.

"Go on then!" I winked, stealing one of his almost empty tray.

"Niall are you feeling okay mate? You just shared your food and with a stranger no less" Harry jibed.

"I'm fine Haz." Niall bit back.

"Erm Niall... you have what appears to be peri peri sauce on your face!" I giggle at him. He slaps his hand to his right cheek and rubs looking at his hand when he's done. "The other cheek." I helpfully point out. Without quite knowing what I'm doing, I step forward and reach towards his cheek. His expression takes on a slightly confused look but he makes no move to stop me. I slip my finger up his cheek taking the peri peri sauce with it. When there is no trace left on his face, I slip my finger in to my mouth. His eyes go wide in shock.

"Mmm. Tasty!" I proclaim.
