Chapter 7
Niall blushes. Point for Julie. “You look okay..” he trails off. “Uh huh. Whatever you say shortstack” I say. He just laughs and I take the lead out of the building. I feel his eyes burn into my back. Or well I thought my back, when I snuck a look over my shoulder, I saw his eyes on my butt. My voluptuous butt… woah there. I smirk and keep walking. Step, step, step. Tee hee. I keep walking until we get to the elevator. I step in the elevator and push lobby. He steps in too and it’s an uncomfortable silence. “OMG WE’RE FALLING!!” I yell and launch myself onto the floor of the elevator. Niall gets a panicked look in his eyes and tries to steady himself. I bust out laughing because the elevator is fine, I just wanted to break the silence. “Wait- we aren’t falling are we?” he asks. “Nope” I say between laughs. That was really funny to me, but Niall is giving me a glare. “Can I help you?” I ask with a posh British accent, causing Niall to laugh. The doors of the elevator open and we step out. Niall escorts me to a limo and- HOLD THE FLUFFERNUGETS UP! A LIMO? “Niall you do know we’re going to the movies, not to visit the queen right?” I ask him, making sure he hasn’t lost his mind. “I know.” He says with a smirk. Okay then. We scoot into the back of the limo and the driver takes off! OFF TO THE RACES I’M GOING PLACES THIS IS THE BIG BREAK AND IT’S CALLING MY NAAAAAMMEE!! Ugh I loved that show when I was younger. Sonny With a Chance. Anyone? No. Okay. Well I loved it and the song popped up in my head so I decided to share it with you. “So why are you here in London if you’re from America?” Niall asks me. Good question. “Well me and my friend moved here for college.” I say. “But it’s June. You came here a bit early don’t you think?” he asks. “Eh. I wanted to get settled and stuff and since classes start in September it gives us plenty of time.” I say. After a bit of small talk we arrive at the theater. “What do you wanna see Julie?” Niall asks me. “Um, how about that new action movie?” I ask. I really want to see that movie! “Eh. What about that one” Niall asks pointing at the sign for a horror movie.
Niall’s POV cause he’s Irish. I don’t know don’t judge!
I watch as Julie’s eyes bulge at the mention of a scary movie. “Nononononononono. I don’t wanna watch that.” I know what we’re watching now. “Okay I’ll get tickets for that action movie, you go get popcorn and sodas” I say, handing her money for snacks. “Niall I can pay for snacks” she says. “Nope” I say walking to the ticket booth before she can protest. I hear her sigh and walk over to the snack counter. I come up at the counter and ask for two tickets to the horror film. “That’ll be- OH MY GOD YOU’RE YOU’RE YOU!!” The girl at the counter screams. “Uh why yes I am me.” I say chuckling. The girl squeals and hands me my tickets. I pay her and walk away. I go over to where Julie is and decide to give the snack guy who was staring at her in a way I do not approve of a show. I walk up behind her and I can hear in her voice how uncomfortable the guy is making her. I wrap my arms around her waist from behind and place my head on her shoulder. The shock is clear on the guys face and I can feel Julie tense up under my arms. “Just go with it if you want that guy to leave you alone” I whisper into her ear. She nods and leans back into me with a smile on her face. “Hey babe” she says, just loud enough for the guy to hear. I give her a kiss on the temple and smile, “Hello love” I say. The guy gives me a dirty look but I could care less. This is one of those moments that I wish could go on forever. She fits in my arms as if she was made to be in them. I know it sounds cliché but it’s true. The guy gives us the large popcorn and two sodas. He mumbles out a price and we pay and walk away. We head into the theater and I see Julie’s expression drop. Did she find out about the movie switch? “Julie? What’s wrong?” I ask her, setting my hand on hers. She looks up at me and I can see she’s near tears, I know this isn’t about movies. Without another word I pull her from her seat into my arms and hold her there. I can feel her body shacking as she lets out small sobs. Why is she crying? I just let her lay there and do what she needs to do there. Her face is in the crook of my neck, her arms around my torso. She finally stops and her breathing goes back to normal, and the movie is about halfway over already. I put my hand under her chin and pull her out from my neck to face me. “Julie? Are you okay?” I ask her. “Just remembered something” she whispers, her voice rough from crying. I look into her eyes and see fear, and sadness. I start inching my face towards hers. And finally our lips connect.
Julie’s POV cause idk what goes on in guys heads
Fireworks go off in my head. I’d never felt this way when I would kiss Zach. His kisses were always so empty and emotionless; this was filled with emotion, yet gentle at the same time. I pull away and put my attention on the screen. I see a persons head get cut off and scream. I put my head back on Niall’s shoulder and stay there the rest of the movie. That buttwipe bought tickets to the scary movie. If you’re wondering what happened earlier then I shall explain. Wait you don’t care? Oh well I’ll tell you anyway. I was remembering how Zach had told me about me only ever being in a fake relationship, which was what happened at the counter. I hadn’t thought of Zach for a while so it hit me like a ton of bricks. I don’t want to tell Niall though, he’d probably think I’m a wimp. I refuse to be thought of as a wimp, so this will stay a secret. After the movie we throw away our trash, Niall ate half of the popcorn and drank most of his soda, while mine was untouched. I feel guilty wasting the money like that, but I couldn’t bring myself to get up. He really has the best hugs. We leave and I see the snack counter guy giving Niall a dirty look. I smirk and grab Niall’s hand, swinging it back and forth. He gives me a confused look and I nod my head towards the snack counter. He nods and tells me to hop onto his back, I do as told and we run out of the movies like this. We get many weird looks but ignore them. We get to the limo and hop in laughing. “Oi I think ya broke my back!” Niall exclaims in an old man voice, causing me to laugh. “Well excuse me! You offered your back to me so I brought me and the weight of every big mac I have ever had with me!” I say in an old woman voice. The driver gives us a weird look and we just laugh more. We show up at a building I’ve never been to before. “Niall where are we?” I ask. “Oh yeah! I have to pick up Harry because we have to get haircuts after this so we’ll drop you off and go get a trim.” He explains. “Okay” I say and see a tall guy with curly hair walk over to the limo and hop in. “Hey Ni, hey Jackie?” he says, trying to remember my name. “Julie. And hi” I say. It’s kind of quiet the rest of the way back to my building. I told you, I’m not good with new people. We get there and all get out of the car. I go in first and lead them to the elevator. I hit 7, my floor, and we head up. Once we’re out of the elevator we walk over to my door and I unlock the door and head in, bring the boys in. “KAITLYN YOU BETTER BE DECENT! I BRING TWO OF YOUR LITTLE BOYBANDERS!” I yell and hear Harry laugh behind me. “Boybanders?” he asks, chuckling. I nod as Kaitlyn comes out in skinny jeans, a peach floral top, and black flats with bows on them. I see Harry check her out and I see her eyes go straight to him. I look at Niall and we both burst out laughing. After a bit of talking and a bit of Kaitlyn and Harry flirting, Niall and Harry have to go get their hair cuts.
