I decided since I haven't been active much, I'll do a double update! Here's the second one :)

Cloudeeya21 got the dedication for guessing the song right first! It was Move by Little Mix<3 love those girls!

 

 

 

Niall's POV:

“Take your medicine before I make you.” I ordered Avalon. She glared at me with her arms crossed. We sat on the carpeted floor of my living room.

“You can’t make me!” She exclaimed and fell back so she was laying down.

“Oh yes I can.” I said smirking at her while inching towards her.  Her eyes widened as I got on top of her.

My eyes traveled to hers, my heart beating a hundred times a minute. I hovered over her and she was staring profoundly at me. I pinned her arms down to the floor and she raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"Now are you going to take your medicine?" I smirked. She shook her head stubbornly. Of course. This was Avalon we were talking about.

I licked my lips and her eyes widened at my action. I leaned down near her face and as soon as I was about to press my lips onto hers, a ringing sound interrupted us. I got off of her and we both blushed shyly. I can't believe I was about to kiss her.

I quickly ran to get the phone and as I picked it up, I saw Avalon standing awkwardly while rubbing her arm.

"Hello?" I answered the phone.

"Niall?" A familiar female voice asked.

"Yes?"

"This is Sam. Can you and Avalon come over to the center?"

"Yeah sure! Be there in a few." I answered.

Avalon looked at me cluelessly and I answered her questioning gaze, "We have to go the center."
She nodded and gathered her stuff. I watched as she bent down to grab her shoes.

"Like what you see?" She smirked. I flushed a red color and she laughed musically. A smile spread onto my face. She looked so beautiful. Her scars didn't define her. They didn't matter to me. At least she kept her hood down now around me.

Was I getting feelings for her?

Avalon's POV:
As we drove to the center, I thought about Niall almost kissing me today. I couldn't believe he was about to do that. But strangely... I wanted him to. What was going on with me?

All those days he came to the hospital to cheer me up and talk to me made me like him. He wasn't as stuck-up as I thought he was. But I wasn't sure if I liked him more than a friend yet. I'm not sure if I could do that.

We arrived at the center and Niall turned the car off. He came to open my door like a gentlemen and I blushed once again. I got out of the car and we quietly walked to the center. A few lights were on, because it was around 7:00 pm. I wondered why Sam needed us anyways.

The door wasn’t locked and Niall held it open for me as I walked inside while giggling at his actions.  Why was he being this nice to me? This flirty?

We walked down the dark hallway, our breathing the only sound present. If I was in here with some stranger, it would be pretty creepy. But I was safe with Niall.

We opened the door to hear cheers of “surprise!” I beamed to see a banner hung across the wall saying ‘Welcome Back!’ Sam and the other kids that were abused like me came to hug me. They all crowded around me asking me how I was and if I was better. I smiled a big smile and I heard Niall let out a throaty chuckle beside me. I was so happy. Happier than I ever had been before. I felt like I fit in somewhere and that I was loved.

“Sam what is this?” I asked, still in disbelief.

“This was just a little surprise,” She laughed. “Do you know who’s idea this was?” She asked. I scrunched my eyebrows in confusion, frowned, and she noted my expression as my answer.

“It was Niall’s idea.” She replied. A big smile returned to my face and I turned to look at him chatting with Alex and Emmy.  Alex fell to the floor laughing and Emmy joined in. They were laughing at something Niall said and he looked around as his eyes fell on me.

I mouthed “thank you” and he nodded as a smile spread on his lips.

“Everybody I also have some other good news.” Sam announced.

“Alex has been moved to his foster home!” She announced and we all cheered while saying “yay” We all hugged Alex and he smiled, showing his missing teeth. He’d finally gotten out of his abusive step-father’s house. In fact, his story was kind of just like mine. I was relieved that he didn’t have to go through that anymore.

The party went on as we played small games, ate food, and chatted around of course. Everyone was so happy and my heart warmed at the thought of it. Usually, because of our life outside, we would all be depressed. But not today.

“Okay everybody it’s getting pretty late,” Sam shouted over the chatter of the kids. “I’ll see everyone tomorrow.” We said our byes to everyone and I left the center with Niall. I’d spent the whole day with him after I’d been released from the hospital. We had gotten ice cream first and then gone to his house. And right now, he was going to drop me off to my house.

Niall’s POV:

“So how’d you like the party?” I asked Avalon, peering at her.

She smiled while saying, “I had a blast!”

“I’m glad.”

“Niall I haven’t felt this happy in so long.”

I looked at her again. She fumbled with the sleeve of her large sweatshirt and wiped her cheek slowly. I rolled up to her house and stopped the car.

“Avalon can I ask you a question?”

“Um… Sure.”

“How come you have bruises if you’re at a Foster home?” I asked. I’d been wondering this for a while, but I didn’t have the courage to ask. She hesitated for a minute, but opened her mouth to reply.

“We-well… I went home to see how my brother was, but my step-dad got a h-hold on m-me.”

I leaned over to hug her and she leaned her head on my chest. It was kind of uncomfortable leaning over the car shift gear, but it didn’t matter right now. Avalon was upset.

“I’ll walk you to the door.” I reassured. I got out of my seat and she got out of hers, but she took a while for some reason. I wrapped my arm around her waist as I walked her to the door. She stared at me when we stood on her porch. She put her hands on my chest and slowly pushed me to the wall near the door. Confusion flooded my mind, but everything was cleared when she pressed her lips onto mine and passionately kissed me.

Note: Woahhh! What do you think came over Avalon when she kissed him? Comment your feelings on everything :D I’m just happy they kissed ahah. Oh and sorry for all the different POV’s!

Guys I may or may not be writing another story ;) but it won't be posted until I finish this one!

Answer the question for a dedication: What is the name of Liam's most recent girlfriend? -_-

You're beautiful to me! And if you think about self-harming yourself or anything, think about the fact that life will get better. Life will change! If you're having a bad life now, you'll have a good life later. Everything's balanced! We just have to stay happy through our toughest times or they'll come bite us in the butt. Love you all- stargurl<3

(vote if you ship Navalon so much :') )
