I felt like running into the house right then and there. But, he smiled? That's good....right? I'm taking this way to seriously...I think. Before I can decide whether I am or not, he's running towards me.
"Hey Lex!" did he just call me Lex? well that's a new one."Uhh hey Neil." I replied. I feel my cheeks heat up. Oh god.
"Taking interest in boys already I see." I hear my dad's voice say behind me. Can this get any worse. "Dad, that's the one guy Lexi likes from that one dumb band! What are they called again? One dimension?" my brother says. Oh.Dear.Lord. I know he was kidding and I hope Niall does too. "Dad! Brian! Stop! This is Niall from one direction! Oh and not to mention, he didn't make me leave his private plane!" I can't help but yell at them. "This is the boy that you were on a plane with?" my dad asks. "Yeah," I say calmer.
"Well, it's nice to meet you!"my dad says as if nothing happened. Niall, being the gentleman that he is, shakes his hand. "I'm Niall," he introduces himself. "As so I've heard. I'm Lexi's dad, but you can call me Jason. " my annoying dad just had to be cheesy at a time like this. "Nice to meet you, err Jason." Niall says. "I'll let you to mingle...I mean hang while Brian and I bring the boxes inside." my dad tells us. Niall and I just stare at him while he leaves. On the way, I hear him mumble "You guys say hang nowadays right?" to my brother. Geez dad can you be any more embarrassing? I think to myself. "Do ya wanna come inside my house? I can't be outside too long or else my fans will find me." he explains. "Well, don't you wanna have quality time with your family?" I ask hoping I don't ruin they're reunion as a family. "No way! It's always awkward seeing them. Maybe they won't be so weird if your around with me. " he smirks. I slap him playfully on his arm. "Seriously though, come with me. Please?" he asks while pouting like a little kid. "Fine." I give in.
Niall takes my hand and runs me over to the front door of his house. As soon as he held my hand, I felt butterflies take over my body. He takes his other hand and knocks on the door. Within seconds, a woman wearing an apron opens the door and joy takes over her eyes. "Niall! Honey! You're home!" She says while wrapping her arms around his neck. "Mom" he growls obviously embarrassed by his mom. "Oh! I'm sorry honey." She apologizes when she notices me. "Hi! I'm Niall's mom, but you can call me Maura." she says. Do all parents introduce themselves like that? I know from my fangirl experience that his parents were divorced, but wondered if Niall's dad would of introduced himself like that. Probably. "I'm Alexa, but you can call me Lexi." I reply. "It's nice to meet you honey, come in!come in!" she says while opening the door wider so that we could walk in.
I gasp as we walk into Niall's house. It's beautiful. Everything look so expensive, yet I feel at home. " We'll be upstairs." he tells his mom and I can't help but feel bad that we are just leaving his mom alone. "Okay! that's fine. I'm just cooking. It may take a while knowing me." she explains. I laugh because if she wouldn't of said that, I'd think she was a great cook.
Niall drags me up the stairs. Oh god, we're still holding hands. Did his mom think we were dating? I mean I wish we could be but, probably not. We walk up the long spiraled staircase and I'm panting once we get to the top.
"How do you do that all the time?" I ask while catching my breath and dropping to the floor. "It's only 25 stairs," he shrugs like its nothing. "Whatever." I say. He finally lets go of my hand but suddenly lifts me up with both hands and throws me over his shoulder. "LET ME DOWN!" I playfully yell while hitting his back with my hands.
When he obliges, we are in front of a door. I open it before he can and step inside. I hear his footsteps walk in behind me. His room is perfect. I've always wanted my room to be like it.vNot in a girly way, just the way it's set up. There's a desk with a lamp next to it to the left, a bed with drawers under it on the right, bookshelves by the bed, and a huge window-seat in the middle.
"Woah,"I hear him say.
"Haven't you been in your room before?"
"Ya, of course. But, I'm hardly home." he sighs. "I'm pretty sure you're new room is close to looking like this one"
"Wait... how would you know?"
"Well, uh, there used to be a girl that I used to date that lived there. I didn't live here at the time, but I do now...Obviously."
The thought of Niall being in a room with another girl makes me cringe. What? What am I thinking? He's not even my boyfriend, and probably doesn't want to be.
"Hey," he softly says while lifting up my chin with his index finger. "Don't be jealous, Lex"
