Crazy But True (Niall Horan FanFic)

Chapter 10

Chapter 10:

When I woke up in the morning, it was simply me and an empty bed. I frowned slightly, climbing out of bed and going to the bathroom before heading into the kitchen where I saw Niall was on the phone as he scrambled up some eggs. I plopped down at a counter stool and slouched over on my elbows as I listened to fragments of Niall’s conversation.

“Well that sounds great to me.” He was saying, “Have you talked to Liam?...Oh alright…No, it’s perfect. I’ll go call Liam. Thank you.”  Niall hung up the phone and turned to me with a smile, “Good morning, gorgeous.”

With a lazy attempt, I got up from my seat and fell into Niall’s arms to give him a kiss. “Who was on the phone?” I asked him. “Oh! Gotta call Liam..” Niall responded, pulling away from me to grab his phone once again, “Help yourself to eggs, babe.”

I nodded, using the spatula to shovel some eggs onto a plate for myself before settling down to eat as Niall spoke to Liam. “Boo yah!” Niall exclaimed as he replaced his phone on the counter and turned to me with a wide grin. “So..What are you doing tonight, my love?”

“Uh…I have a feeling something completely unexpected.” I said, raising my eyebrows as I took another forkful of eggs into my mouth. “That is correct!” Niall said, “Okay, sp here’s the deal, there’s this annual benefit for.. Well really it’s for celebrities and the upper class of London pretty much, if you follow my drift…”

“Oh, you mean for rich, A-Class people.” I chuckled, nodding my head. “Righht, anyways, so we had originally been asked to attend and perform but I was supposed to be in Ireland so we had to decline but now that I’m back we just got a call saying that they’d still love to have us.” Niall grinned, “It’s a red carpet event and everything so we’re going to have to get something to wear but fortunately it’s been approved that you can be my date, Alex will be Zayn’s, and Brianna will be Harry’s!”

“That sounds great!” I grinned, “But come on, I don’t need to get something new to wear.  I have that dress you got me for our last date in Ireland.” Niall chuckled, shaking his head, “No, babe, we’re getting you something new.  Go call your girls and tell them to get ready and you can shower here then change there.” I rolled my eyes playfully, kissing Niall’s cheek before going back to Niall’s room to grab my phone and call Alex.

Within half an hour we had picked up Alex and Brianna and were then on our way to the store that Niall had decided we would meet Zayn and Harry at. “Good morning, beautiful.” Zayn smiled when we got out, swooping Alex into his arms and giving her a soft kiss. “Ugh, love birds.” Harry groaned, crinkling his nose and heading into the store.

With a laugh, we all followed him in to the dress boutique and were instantly greeted by the owner.  Apparently Niall had called ahead and told her we were coming so the six of us had the shop to ourselves for the day.  I looked around the shop, smiling as I took in the purple and silver walls along with the chandelier in the center of the ceiling.

“My rack.” Brianna said, heading to a wall of dresses. Alex grinned, racing to a wall herself and I took the large rack beside her. “Are we supposed to like, help?” Zayn asked with a  raised eyebrow. “If you’d like,” Alex shrugged in response. “Yeah, no promises we’ll like your choice!” Brianna laughed.

Soon enough, we had all three boys browsing through different racks and pulling dresses that they’d like to see us in. “Seriously? Please!” I heard Zayn asking and turned around to see what he was talking about only to see Alex’s nose crinkle in disgust, “No. That is hideous, Zayn!”
