A Twist of Fate (Harry Styles/Niall Horan love triangle)

(chp 21) Mending Bonds

Cassidy’s P.O.V.

Liam grabbed my bag from me and threw it in the trunk of his car. “That’s everything.” He stated as he shut the trunk door and headed towards the driver’s seat. Louis nodded his head and headed towards his car and got into the driver’s seat as well. Everyone decided that taking two cars would be a lot less crowded so me, Liam, Zayn, and Belle were in one car while Louis, Harry, Niall, and Riley were in the other.

I slide into the backseat, while me and Liam wait for Belle and Zayn. Suddenly there is a gentle knock on my window. I smile when I see it’s Niall, leaning against the car and waving at me. I lower the window and he leans in to give me a kiss on the lips. We must have been kissing longer than I thought, because Zayn and Belle were already in the car and Liam chimed in “Alright you love birds, we have a tight schedule and we really need to get going.”

We quickly separated. Niall chuckled a “sorry Liam” and leaned down again to give me a kiss on my forehead. “See you there, princess.” He whispered in my ear and walked over to the other car where Louis was already slowly pulling out of the driveway. “Wait for me!” He yelled as he opened the car door and went inside.

“Then hurry up mate!” I heard Louis exclaim.

Liam looked around the car at us. “Is everyone in this car present?” He teased.

“Yup.” We all said, laughing in unison.

“Then let’s go.” He said starting the car and following Louis out of the driveway and onto the street.

I turned to Belle. “So, you excited to see Zayn go without electricity for more than 24 hours?”

“Hey, I heard that!” Zayn said turning around and giving me a teasing glare.

I burst into a fit of giggles. “Sorry Zayn, I just can’t see you as the outdoorsy type.”

“You should see him try and start a fire.” Belle said leaning over to give Zayn a hug, even though his seat was in the way. “You did remember to bring the matches this time, right babe?” She asked, smiling innocently at him.

“First thing I packed.” He said smiling.

“We don’t want a repeat of last time.” Belle said giggling.

“What happened last time?” I asked, their conversation catching my interest.

“I’m sure you guys don’t want to hear that boring story.” Zayn said trying to get us uninterested.

“Yes we do!” Liam and I spoke in unison.

“Well…” Belle said, starting to explain the embarrassing story.

“Aww babe!” Zayn wined.

Riley’s P.O.V.

“56 bottles of beer on the wall! 56 bottles of beer!” Louis sang, singing the song for the last 43 bottles of beer.

“Someone turn on the radio!” Harry begged from the backseat.

“Glady.” I said from the front seat, leaning over and turning on the radio.

“Aww you guys are no fun.” Louis said, keeping his eyes on the road.

“Who are you texting Niall? All of the cool people are in this car.” Harry teased, looking curiously at Niall who was smiling at his phone.

“Cass.” Niall said smiling, typing a message back to her on his phone.

“You guys are so adorable.” I coed, turning around to stare at a love struck Niall.
