Plan B

“You never get tired of chicken do you?”

-Niall

It began to get windy so I was grateful that I brought my cardigan. I was barely getting used to the London weather, well actually I don’t think that’s possible. You never knew if it was going to rain or it’s going to be a sunny day. Niall and I were just walking next to each other. He smelled heavenly. I’m being weird again. Okay I need to stop for real though! We walked a few blocks until we got to a park next to a neighborhood. He looked at me.

“So here’s the first stop. If you look in front of you, you will see the beautiful playground,” he said in his announcer voice. I began to giggle. He looked down at me, again due to my short height, “I love the sound of your giggles.” He smiled at me and his cheeks began to get rosy. I smiled back. We continued walking towards the swings and I got on one and he started pushing me, until I began getting scared because I was too far up from the ground. He saw my expression and quickly slowed down the swing.

“Are you scared of heights, Bella?” He asked me seriously. I looked down, “Yeah a little bit.” He got up and grabbed my hand and began running down the street until we were in front of a restaurant. I looked up, “Nandos?” I asked. “Uh yeaaaaaah!” Niall began. Ohhh! I recalled El talking about how much he loved Nandos… well here’s my opportunity to try it. “Lets go then, what are you waiting for?! I’m famished!” I pulled Niall’s hand and we went inside. My nose was filled with the smell of chicken. Good god did it smell amazing! “Well what do you recommend I get?” I asked Niall. “Ummm everything?” We both started laughing. “Okay on a serious note, how about I order for both of us? Yeah?” He asked me. I simply nodded.

“Oh god! I think I’m in heaven!” I said and dug into my perri perri chicken. He chuckled. “How so?”

“Because there is no, absolute way that chicken can ever taste this amazingly good here on Earth!” I said.

“Well now I know where to take you every time you are hungry. You never get tired of chicken do you?” He asked me smiling.

“Nope. It’s too addicting!” I said with my mouthful. I quickly swallowed. “Oh my god! Excuse my horrible manners!” I said getting red.

“Don’t worry! I spend most of my time with 4 other guys. At least you have the decency to say sorry.” We both laughed.

He was just amazing. Like completely amazing. His smile was beautiful. His laugh was just joyful. His eyes… Oh his eyes were just like if you were staring into the deep blue ocean and that’s all you saw. And there I was once again being the weirdo I am, just staring at him. Okay I need to stop. This is the second time it happens. But he’s just so beautiful. The rest of dinner went perfect, just cracking some jokes and what not.

“Okay well its already 8, and I still want us to go have fun, so ill show you one last place that I come usually alone to.” He told me. I nodded. He grabbed my hand. Whaaaaaaaaaat?! He’s holding my hand! Oh my god! How am I not passing out?! We kept walking until we saw a hill. Well I guess the hill looks pretty. It had a few flowers growing on it.

“Don’t think this is the place,” he said laughing, “its right past this hill. Ready?”

“Yeah, lets go!” I said with enthusiasm. We both ran to the top of the hill, me pulling him by the hand. I suddenly came to a halt when I saw the panorama in front of me. It was absolutely beautiful. There was a bench and beside it was a tree with a swing. In front of the bench was a small lake with crystal water and the moon was shinning bright in the reflection in the water. It was breathtaking.

“Niall…” I was lost for words, “this is just… its just… beautiful. Breathtaking really.”

“C’mon,” he said pulling me towards the bench “it is an amazingly beautiful scene, incredible really. I never have actually brought any of the boys here cause I don’t think they would appreciate it as much as you seem to.”
