Sage's POV

"Are you okay?" Brooke asked when she realized I was crying.

"Yea, yea. I'm fine really. Just kinda sunk in that we won't see each other as often as we used to," I shrugged. We walked to the car and drove home. I offered to drive so Brooke could sleep.

"I kept thinking about Niall. I mean, yea, he's hot and a good singer and nice and funny and fucking NIALL HORAN, but he's also really down to Earth and sweet and genuinely a great guy. Again, that's what I assumed he was like before I meet him, but having an actual conversation with him sort of reminds you that he is in fact an actual person who walks on the same ground and breathes in the same air as you do. Niall isn't just some face on a poster or a voice on the radio. He is, as cliché as this may sound, you classic 'boy-next-door'.

I also found myself missing his presence. What girl wouldn't miss a really cute guy with an adorable accent putting his arm around you and laughing, talking, and having a good time with you. And the way his bright blue eyes lit up in the crappy lights of a run down smoothie joint in the middle of London at 3 A.M. was definitely a turn on. I loved when he would wiggle his eyebrows to make me laugh and run his tongue over his bright pink lips. All I really wanted was to see him again.

We pulled up to the flat and I parked on the curb in front of Alix's place. After shaking Brooke awake, we walked inside to find a sleeping Claire sprawled across the sofa snoring as loud as the screaming girls at the concert. I was about to shake her awake as well, but Brooke caught my arm and whispered, "Let her sleep. We'll all need some rest before we meet up with the boys again tonight."

"We're seeing the boys again tonight?!?!" I shouted, causing Claire to wake up and fall to the floor with a loud thud. "Oops! Sorry Claire!" I said helping her up.

"Oh yea! I was supposed to tell you, but with the rush of Kate almost missing her flight and you were just emotionally unstable after she left and...just...yea...Sorry," Brooke mumbled towards the end.

"It's cool." We all went upstairs to take a nap, excited for the upcoming night.

Niall's POV

"Niall," Zayn whispered and softly elbowed me in the ribs.

"What are you most excited about for the tour that has just begun?" the interviewer asked. Damn, this was the second time I was caught day dreaming.

"I'm excited about meeting all the fans. They mean the world to us and without them, we'd literally be nothing. So we, as a group, find that it's important to thank them for letting us live our dreams. And as well as a tweet or Instagram photo can portray our gratitude, it's always better just to do it in person. Face-to-face, yunno?" I answered, referring to Sage when I talked about meeting our fans. I was so nervous about seeing her again. What if I wasn't what she expected? What if I'm not the guy she thought I was and is disappointed in the real me? What if she doesn't want to see me again tonight? All these negative questions kept forming in my head until after the interview when me, Liam and Louis were heading out to Louis' car and Liam questioned my rather "odd" behavior.

"Mate, what was going on back there? You kept zoning out," Liam asked.

"Niall has a crush on a girl!!" Louis shouted and ran to his automobile. I blushed.

"Oh really? What's her name?" Liam asked with a smirk on his face.

"Sage. She's sweet, funny, smart, cute. As perfect as you can describe a girl you met within the last 8 hours and not making it sound creepy."

"Wow, you really seem to like her. Considering the amount of time you've spent together and the emotional bind you two share, I think she's the one for you Nialler," he joked.

"Seriously, though. There's something about this one. I just don't know what it is yet," I sighed.

"Well, I'm happy you've found someone you like. Who knows? Maybe this can turn into something! When's the next time your meeting up with her?"

"Tonight."

"Woah, a little eager now aren't we?," he teased as we finally reached the car and buckled up in the back seat. Louis started the engine and we headed back to our apartments.

No matter what I did, I could not stop thinking of Sage. Her smile. Her laugh. The way she would blush and then try to hide her face. I got this weird feeling, like when you try a new food and all you ever do is crave that particular food, or when you hear a new song and it gets stuck in your head. When we got home, I decided to take a quick nap before preparing for our group date.

********************************************************************************************************************

"Oh my gosh I don't know what to wear!" I said frustrated. I couldn't decide on what to wear: a tank top with khaki shorts or a button up with slacks. I phoned up my friend Deo and asked him for some advice.

"Wow mate. Indecisive on your outfit? Are you sure you aren't gay?"

"Fuck you, mate," I said through a laugh.

"Okay, okay. You don't want to seem too casual by going with the tank top and shorts, but you don't want to look like a try-hard and wear the button up with slacks either."

"Then what do I do?" I panicked.

"Woah, dude! Calm down! It's just a girl. Keep it simple with a polo and some jeans."

"Thanks mate! I've only got about half an hour left, so I gotta go. Bye."

"Bye." The line went dead and I hopped into the shower, letting the warm water trickle down my arms. I wonder if Sage had trouble getting ready too.

Sage's POV

"Oh my gosh I don't know what to wear!!" I screamed throwing clothes out of unpacked boxes, searching for  SOMETHING decent to wear. Zilch. Zip. Nada. NOTHING!

"Relax! Here, borrow these," Claire said calmly, noticing my predicament. Bless her. She handed me a pile of clothed that I tried on when she left the room. It was an orange-yellow ombre dressy tank top with crop skinny jeans and a black cardigan. I paired them with black sandals, a gold necklace that said 'lovely' on it, and gold bangles.

I did a runway model-like walk down the hallway towards Claire's room, where I engulfed her in a huge hug and thanked her a thousand times. I ran back to the bathroom and fishtailed my hair to the side and applied some lip gloss and mascara. Then I sprayed on the Our Moment fragrance and ran downstairs to wait impatiently for the other girls.
