Alyson's POV

After we all separated, I looked around until I found the chips aisle. I picked out Doritos, Cheetos, Pretzels, Chex Mix, Sour Cream & Onion chips, and cheese puffs. What can I say? We like a variety of choices.

I loaded them all into my shopping cart and proceeded down the aisle. I turned around the corner and found donuts. They're not on the list, but they're calling my name so I have to get them.

The ones I wanted were at the very top of the shelf and I was having a hard time reaching them. I'm exactly 5 feet tall and that's pretty short for an 18 year old girl, but I have heels on so why can't I reach them easily?

I found myself getting frustrated because I had to literally jump to even come close to reaching the donuts.

"Here, lemme help yeah there." a man with an Irish accent said.

I stepped back and let the blonde haired boy reach up for my donuts. How perverted did that sound?

He turned around and handed me the donuts. I saw his face and literally got the strange urge to pee my pants right then and there. That's Niall fucking Horan!

Play it cool, Al, I told myself. He's gonna think you're a creep if you freak out.

"Here you go." he said nicely with a smile. I can't believe this is actually happening.

I kept my poker face and smiled back. "Thanks so much. I probably would've just knocked the shelf down and taken my donuts if I had to jump one more time."

"Well I couldn't just stand there and wait for you to twist your ankle, now could I?" Niall said.

Oh my Lord I'm having a conversation with Niall Horan.

"Yeah, these shoes just don't do me justice when it comes to jumping for donuts." I giggled.

"Maybe not, but they look very nice on you and I guess that's all that matters to girls, right?"

He just complimented me on my shoes. Oh. My. Horan.

I smiled slightly and decided to change the subject. "If you're from Ireland, then why are you in England?"

"If you're from America, then why are you in England?" he fired back and I laughed.

"Touche." I said. "But seriously though."

"I just got done with a world tour with my band and we're taking a little break so we're all just visiting family." Niall explained.

"Well then shouldn't you be in Ireland?" I asked. "You know, to see your family?"

"My family moved to England about a year ago."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I know his parents didn't move to England but let's just pretend for the sake of the story, okay?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So why are you here?" he asked me.

"I just graduated and it's always been my dream to come here so I'm living here with my two best friends." I explained.

"Really? Wow. If I just graduated, my parents would never let me move to a whole new continent."

"It took a lot of convincing, trust me, but we finally go through to them." I assured him and he nodded.

"Well if you and your friends ever want to explore a little, my band mates and I could give you guys a tour sometime." Niall offered.

Oh. My. Horan. He wants to hangout with us!! Is this what celebrities do with their fans all the time? Oh wait, he doesn't know I'm a fan.
