Loved You First

Chapter 12

"So who is this Ryan?" he questioned."What?" I asked.

"When Harry asked who was your first kiss you said Ryan. Who is he?" Niall asked again.

"Well I kinda lied, Ryan was my second kiss but he was the guy you always used to hang out with . He was quite the charmer," I said.

"Oh yeah. I remember now. That's why we stopped being friends," he said.

"How did you even find out about that?" I asked. I knew I sure as hell didn't tell him.

"Well you remember those two horrible boys Brandon and Mark right? They came up to me and said 'So I heard your girlfriend has been cheating on you.' And then they explained to me what they meant. After that I ignored Ryan because everything he did pissed me off," he explained.

"You know Brandon after you left for X-Factor Brandon came up to me and told me that the only reason he was mean to you was because he had a crush on me. It was really awkward," I said.

"Who didn't? You're so beautiful, guys were always talking about you and looking at you and making up excuses to talk to you," he said.

"I never noticed," I thought out loud.

"Well I certainly did. What they said made me angry but I didn't know why," he said.

I didn't say anything else. We sat throught the most beautiful sunset I'd ever seen in silence.

"That was amazing!" I exclaimed as we walked back down the beach hand-in-hand.

"You're amazing," he said pulling me close to him. "And I love you." Niall closed the space between us with a kiss.

I placed one hand on his cheek and the other on the back of his neck. I wanted to be as close to him as I could possibly be. But then Niall pulled away. I could tell he knew I was confused.

"Later," he said. Taking my hand again he lead me towards an area of the house that I'd never seen before. There was a small table with two plates and two cups.

"Wow you really went all out on this," I said.

"I needed to have the perfect date for the perfect girl," he said taking my face in both of his hands and pressing his lips to the center of my forehead.

"Perfect doesn't even being to describe this," I said.

"Well then, let's eat!" he declared walking over to the counter where he uncovered several plates of food.

It smelled delicious and I only had to take one look at it to know it was Nando's.

"Since we never went to Nando's, I thought I'd bring Nando's to us," he said making me laugh.

The food was amazing. I hadn't had Nando's since the last time Niall was here. It made me miss him even more.

"So what's next?" I asked when we were both finished with our food. 

"Now we dance," he said turning on the music.

The song that played was "Kiss Me" by Ed Sheeran. Niall pulled me over to an open area. I wanted to object because I couldn't dance and he knew that but he seemed intent on dancing and I didn't want to throw his perfect date off.

"I'm in love now," he sang looking into my eyes.

I was hyponotized by his voice. When he sang to me I was unaware of anything else. It wasn't until the song was over that I even realized that I was actually dancing.

"Is it later yet?" I asked once the song had ended.

"Hold on, one more song," he begged. I didn't understand why this meant so much to him but I didn't argue. The song "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt came on. It was one of my favorite songs.
