Music Saves Lives

Chapter Forty-Seven

It’s finally Friday. I’m so happy to see Niall today and my family of course. I got to my parent’s house last night and Niall is going to be here soon. I changed into my sundress I bought for the occasion and stepped into my white Keds. The doorbell rang and I ran down the stairs to the door.

“Niall!” I squealed, opening the door and jumping on him causing him to fall back a bit.

“It’s only been a week.” He chuckles and sets me down.

I took his hand and brought him into the house.

“You look beautiful, babe.”

I smiled and pecked his cheek. “Thank you.”

He was wearing a white t-shirt with a plaid shirt over it. His sleeves were rolled up and he wore a pair of nice jeans. We found my parents in the kitchen, drinking coffee. They both greeted Niall and we chatted about how everything was going lately and my dad so nicely told Niall about the conversation we had last night.

“You mean you can move in with me then?” Niall grinned.

“Maybe.” I blushed. “I just have to wait to hear from Evangeline first remember?”

“Okay, but we should still start getting ready then. I think we will be able to move in together no matter what anyone else says.”

My mom laughed and linked her arm with my dad’s. “We should get going.”

We all got into my dad’s car and met up with my aunt and uncle at the school. We all said our hellos and went in the gym to take our seats. While we waited, I took Niall’s hand and rested my head on his shoulder. The little ceremony started and we clapped and cheered for each little five or six year old cutie that graduated.

“We’re going to have a little kid like that one day.” Niall whispered into my ear when they were thanking everyone for coming.

Aaron ran over to us and he hugged his parents and then my parents. His eyes widened when he saw Niall and me. He jumped up into my arms and hugged me tight and then I handed him to Niall so he could do the same to him.

We all decided to go out to lunch but we had to wait for Andrew to get out of school. Niall, Aaron, and I waited outside the school, while the parents went to the restaurant to get a table. My aunt left her car with the Aaron’s booster seats. Andrew ran out of school straight to Niall, of course. I laughed as Andrew hugged Niall’s legs. He then came to hug me and I bent down to kiss his cheek.

“Ew” he wiped it away.

I laughed. “How was your last day, Sweetheart?” I asked as we walked to the car.

“Boring.”

I heard Niall laugh as I held one of Aaron’s hands and Niall held the other. Andrew ran to the car and held the handle before I unlocked it.

I was driving so Niall put the boys in the backseat while I started the car. Niall got into the passenger seat and buckled up. I pulled out of the parking spot and drove to lunch. The boys and Niall kept laughing at each other and Niall was turned towards them, making faces. We got to the restaurant and Niall took the boys out of the car and I held Aaron’s hand while Niall held both of their hands.

We found my family sitting at a big table towards the back reading over the menus and we sat down.

“How was the drive, the boys weren’t…”My aunt started.

“Oh no! They were fine. Niall kept them occupied.” I smiled.

“They really do like him.” She said, pointing over at him reading the menu with them.
