Chapter 33

I placed the fork down on the empty plate and looked at Niall. He leaned against the kitchen island while holding a coffee mug, looking at me.

"What?" I asked wiggling my eyebrows. He chuckled and walked over to me.

"Lexie." he said in a low voice.

"Niall." I mocked him. His was serious and it made my smile drop. His hand grabbed mine and his eyes locked with mine. He had a face expression that I couldn't figure out which made me really nervous.

"Is everything alright?" I asked worried. My stomach twisted into a knot as I waited for him to answer. He walked even closer to me, standing in between my legs. His tall feature hovered over me our eyes still having contact.

"I have to ask you something." Still serious. I started to get a lump in my throat and bit my bottom lip nervously. I remained silent. This boy standing in front of me is pure sex and a beautiful creature. The way his jaw tenses when he gets angry or how soft his face expression is when he gets worried. Yeah, he is an asshole sometimes but I can learn to love beyond that. I know that falling for him was so wrong. But the thing is; you don't choose who you fall for or who you love.

I waited for him to talk. He scratched himself in the neck and then he opened his mouth to speak.

"When we met I know that I was a pain in the ass and rude to you. And for that I am really sorry. I know that I'm a dick but I can't control it sometimes." He rambled and I looked at him shocked. I had never in a million years expected Niall to apologize.

"It's fine. I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess Niall. I mean look at me. Quite a mess, huh?" I laughed even though it hurt. Niall cupped my face with his bare cold hands.

"No. You're not a mess. You just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. It's not your fault that you got sexually abused by some freak. And just so you know, you're beautiful. Don't let anyone take that away from you." Niall's words stung into my heart and right now all I wanted to to was to kiss him. I smiled up at him and mumbled a thanks.

"Lexie, will you be my girlfriend?" Niall blurted out and I sat there speechless. He bit the inside of his cheek waiting for me to answer.
