Niall P.O.V

"Niall! Come on let's go lazy!" said a sweet voice. "Five more minutes" I slurred. "Foods gonna get cold" "Coming" I said. I felt someone sit on my bed. I turned towards that way and opened one eye to see Theo close to my face "AH!" I screamed. Denise comes running in my old room. "Heh! uncle Niall screamed!" Whilst Theo was laughing, I was still trying to catch my breath. " Theo," Denise said in a motherly way, "Come on let's let uncle Niall get ready." "O'tay!" Theo kisses my cheek. "Love you uncle Niall!" " Love you too Theo." I watch Denise take Theo and shut my door. I fall back down on my bed. I thought it was her again. I need to talk to her, but I just can't bring myself to do it.

"Knock, knock! Can I come in?" mum said. "Yeah.." I said lazily. She stepped in with a concern look drawn across her face. "Have you talked to her yet?" she asked. "No, can't bring myself to talk to her" I replied. "What do I do mum?" "Just talk to her Nialler, she's still your best friend." I shrugged."That's the thing though, whenever we're in the same room she makes me nervous, then when I get closer, there's butterflies." "Well, let's get you downstairs to eat and maybe you can take a walk and think about it?" she suggests. "I guess." Mum pats my leg "Alright, get ready because the food may be cold." Once she leaves, I get up change into a pair of joggers and a t-shirt.

I head downstairs into the kitchen to see Denise and mum washing dishes. Theo is playing in the living room with Dad. And Greg's watching T.V. I tell them "good morning" and eat my food fast. I run back upstairs, brush my teeth, and put on some shoes. I grab my phone, wallet, and keys.

Once I head downstairs my phone vibrates. 'One text message from Abby' I open it to see "Hey Niall! Heard you came back home! Though we could hang for a while! Xx- Abbs" I reply quickly. "Sure, was just heading out, are you free right now?" wait...what did I do? "Of course! How about our old spot :)" 'our old spot' I repeat.

~Flashback~

"Niall you lazy bum!" Abby said trying to drag me to a park I did not want to go to. " Why?" I whined "Because I said so, now get your ass over here!" she demanded. "What's so special about this place anyway?" I questioned. "This is where my dad came whenever he felt sad, or needed to just get out of the house when he was little...he always took me here when I was little..." Abby said sadly "I'm sorry Abbs, I didn't know, you never really talk about him." Silence fell between us. Until Abby's bubbly attitude broke through it. "It's okay, really, Anyways, let's go!" she said, trying to lighten up the mood.
