Everything Has Changed

Chapter 4- let's rewind

"No way." Niall stated as he bit down on a piece of popcorn.

"Yes way. I swear, here look for yourself" I pulled out my phone and showed Niall of a picture of our old friend Kara.

"holy shit, she really is pregnant" he said.

"I'm not surprised." I said taking some popcorn out of the bowl and throwing it in my mouth.

"she's only 19." He cocked his eyebrow.

"So, they have shows called 'teen mom' and '16 and pregnant" I bluntly said.

"Yeah but Kara was such an innocent girl" he said sounding surprised, I wasn't shocked one bit.

"That's what you think." I got up and put the Simpsons on. I flopped back onto my bed and decided to change my jeans into sweats. Niall has seen me pant less PLENTY of times before, I mean we've been best friends since we were born. No harm done.

Nialls POV*

Risa got up and put the Simpsons on. It's not my favorite show but, I could watch it if I had to. She flopped down onto the bed and got up again. GODDAMNIT stay still. She skipped to her dresser and pulled out a pair of sweatpants.

"Niall don't look" she quietly said as I put my hand over my eyes slightly peeked out in between my fingers. I watched her slide her skinny jeans down and off. Her 'get some' underwear slight stuck out and her legs are just *whoa* let's rewind. I flipped myself over on her bed so my back was completely facing her. God dang it I hate it when I act like a pervert. She's changed so much. To start it off, her hair got lighter, she got taller. And she DEFINATLY grew into an amazing body . I honestly didn't recognize her for a good 7 minuets when my family came for dinner last week.

"You can take your hand off your face Niall" Marisa said jumping on her bed next to me.

"Righhtttt." I dragged out.

"Let's get some hot chocolate at Starbucks I wanna introduce you to Aria and Garrett." She said and I groaned loudly.

"Marisa you know I can't go out in public. These directioners are crazy as fuck." I stated slapping my forehead.

"Yeah Niall, they may get out of hand sometimes, but just look where they got you. We can hide your face. Um-

Here." She said tossing me a Jason mask from under her bed.

"Why was this under your bed? And I'm going out in public like this?" I asked her.

"Don't ask and yes. Now come" she said slipping her uggs on. I put the mask over my face, I began breathing heavily and I took a breath of my inhaler, due to my asthma and claustrophobia.

"You alright Ni?" She asked laying a hand on my shoulder, her big blue eyes staring into my um- mask.

"Yeah I guess?" I said

"What do you mean I guess? Take the mask off Niall. Stay here I'm going to get the hot chocolate. Be back in 10." Marisa shut the door behind her and I started walking around her room. Admiring her photos on the walls, I saw her with her mom and justin, one with her and her friends from the coffee shop, garret and Aria I believe, one of her puppy beau. One in particular stuck out, it was a picture of me and Marisa when we where 8. Then under that picture there was one when we where 11, then under that one was one when we were 14 and then 16. It was in a long frame with words spread across the top that said 'forever'. There was space for 2 more pictures, but I guess since I left for the xfactor we haven't done it. I was staring at the picture of us when we where 8 the most, I remember that day like it was yesterday. She had her long brown hair In two pig tails, her smile was missing a few teeth and so was mine. I think I remember that day because that's the day her old dog rocky got off his leash and ran into incoming traffic. And BANG no more rocky. I miss that old fella, we where the three amigos, ahh those where the days. After I looked at the pictures I turned around and bumped into her bureau, and a purple copybook slid off. I bent down to pick it up and I found myself reading it in a matter of seconds. It was some diary or something, I opened up to the first page and it said 'August 22, 2010' the day we got put together as a band. I started reading it.

'I'm home alone again, watching the xfactor. If Niall was here we would be watching this together right now. But since no one else gives a fuck about me I might as well watch it by myself. I'm crying so bad right now, Niall just got voted off. The kid has such a good future, he's so talented. I miss him. Simons calling the groups in now, I'm still emotionally unstable. Okay they're calling in 5 boys.....harry styles....zayn Malik.....Liam Payne....Louis Tomlinson... And NIALL HORAN... Okay so I just screamed so loud the neighbors came to see if I was alright. I'm so proud!"

Wow. I didn't know she felt that way.

"Niall what are you doing!" Marisa screamed from behind me unexpectedly. I threw the book in the air and I jumped up in surprise. The book came back and hit me in the head. 'Ow' I whined rubbing my head.

"What the hell where you doing with my book!?" She snatched it from the floor and threw it in her drawer.

"I bumped into your dresser and it fell off and I couldn't resist I-"

"Shutup." She demanded.

"Well." I mumbled slightly offended.

"Drink your hot chocolate dork" she handed me the cup and I drank it. I tasted a little caramel so I decided to Mimic her.

"Ew Caramel"

Marisa's POV

"Ew Caramel" Niall squealed imitating me from last week when he got a caramel iced coffee. I spit out my hot chocolate onto the floor at his actions.

"What the actual hell?" I laughed . Gosh. I didn't realize how much I missed him, I'm so happy he's home. I can't wait until we can do more together. We have a lot to catch up on.

#*#*#*#*# the next day

Niall slept over last night, we slept in my attic. When we where little we always wanted secret places that we could talk and play games. So, we made a tree house in his yard and we cleaned out my attic. We would stay up there so no one would tell us what to do or say, so we could get away from the world and get lost in our imaginations. I have a little tv in there so we watched movies like the old times. We had a disney movie marathon, Cinderella, The little mermaid, the lion king, finding memo, monsters inc. everything. It was amazing. I fell asleep in his arms his perfect smell of Cologne intoxicated my lunges. It a felt so different. A good different. I woke up to it pouring outside. It was raining cats and dogs. I shook Niall until he woke up. He moaned and groaned and stretched and sat up from under the covers.

"Holy shit it's pissing bloody hell outside" he state in amazement. His morning voice is just, breath taking.

"Is that what it's doing? Never heard that one before." I rolled my eyes.

"I wanted to have a picnic, fuckin weather always ruining my shitin plans."

"Chill Niall. You just woke up 2 minuets ago and you've already cursed 4 times." I said annoyed. He curses way to much, I know he's Irish but still. I'm not holding anything against him because I swear too, but he's ridiculous with it.

"Sorry Ris" he kissed my cheek and laid back down in the blankets.

"What d'ya wanna do today?" I said crossing my legs.

"Nuthin" he mumbled into the covers.

"I completely agree." I flopped down onto the blankets and enjoyed the silence while it lasted. It felt good to relax for once. I didn't have work today either.

"Marisaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Niall dragged out.

"Niallllllllllllłlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll" I repeated.

"Make me some hot chocolate." He demanded.

"In your dreams." I threw a pillow at his head.
