Kaylieh's POV:

I knocked on Niall's door. After a good bit of knocking and no answer, I figured he probably wasn't there. Just as I was about to sadly go home, the door flung open to a sleepy Niall.

"Merry Christmas!" I shouted putting on the best smile I could muster up.

"Woah! Merry Christmas, babe!" he laughed. "Sorry, I didn't hear you knocking at first. I was having a dream about a waffle yelling at me to make some butter, and when I said no, he grabbed a hammer and started hitting the microwave until a taco popped out.. I really.. I just.. I don't know," he sighed chuckling.

I skipped passed him, ruffling his hair in the process, and into the living room.

I grabbed a blanket from the spot Niall had obviously napped and held it up, motioning for him sit by me.

He sat beside me as I curled my legs up and laid my head in his chest. I sighed loudly, exhausted from the drama.

"What's wrong, Kay Kay?" Niall asked sweetly.

I sighed again but added a groan into it. I began to speak when my phone buzzed from my back pocket.

iMessage from: Daddd;)

"Hey pumpkin. Christmas dinner with Austin's fam @ Tavern on the Green. @ 7 PM. Bring the boys if u want. Luv u!"

"Ooh food!" Niall exclaimed excitedly.

"Don't be reading my texts, turd!" I said. "Text the boys and see if they want to come."

Within a few minutes, all the boys had confirmed their appearance.

"Ni, do you ever just.. Ugh," I groaned feeling emotional. "Do you ever feel like something you want so bad is pretty much a lost cause? Like no matter what you do, it just won't work, yet you want it so bad.. "

He shrugged. "Well, sometimes, but I have a question for you."

I nodded. "Shoot."

"Do you ever stop and realize that you've been working so hard for something that you don't need?"

I removed my head from his chest and looked at him as he spoke.

"Like you're working so hard, maybe too hard, to get something you want, but you don't need it... Then, you realize that what you need is right in front of you," he added slowly.

I bit my lip knowing what's to come.

We both leaned towards each other slowly enjoying each other's gaze.

His lips met mine with such slow passion. It was something I couldn't describe.

The kiss didn't last too long. I think we both knew it wasn't the right moment to have a make out session. There was just too much going on.

But Niall just admitted his feelings for me, and I admitted mine to him. We just did that. He.. I.. We.. Wow..


The rest of the afternoon was spent watching Christmas movies as we cuddled together on the couch.

We were in the middle of The Santa Claus 2 when I began to drift off to sleep. I felt Niall gently kiss my temple and sigh loudly as he fell asleep. I heard his heart beat slow considering sleep had taken over his body. His warmth radiated against mine under the thick blanket we were sharing. I smiled and felt my eyelids flutter closed.
