Dreaming With My Eyes Open. (Niall Horan love story)

Chapter Four.

I couldn't believe I was sittting here talking to Niall. I haven't had any dreams involving him anymore, only the one. I still just don't understand why it is that I had that sort of dream about him. And how odd it was that I had the dream, before I even met him..

What I didn't understand was why Niall was here.? It was the finale and they were eliminated.

"Could I ask why you are here? Or where the other boys are?" I questioned.

He answered, "Simon wanted to see us. The other boys are out there with him and I was heading back from the bathroom."

"Oh." I said a looked a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry about your shirt. I could get you a new one?" He says and remembers that I still had the sticky mess on. 

I shook my head, "No, it's okay. I have a tank top on underneath this."

"Love, it's November. You aren't going around in a tank top." He took off his over coat and gave it to me. I slid it on and threw the now ruined sweater into my bag. 

I smiled, "Thank you." 

He grabbed my wrist and started to pull me away. "Where are we going? And what about the mess?"

"That's what janitors are for." He replied and dragged me to the seats. I saw my dad sitting in his normal seat and he gave me a confused look. I shrugged and just followed Niall. He led me to where the rest of the boys were sitting. 

I smiled and waved a little. 

The one with curly brown hair spoke up, "You must be Jo? Niall talks about you non-stop!" Niall shushed him and i sat there confused. Niall talks about me? But he doesn't even really know me, what is there to talk about?

His face was starting to turn a shade of red and I giggled as we sat down. Everyone was practicing for the big finale tonight. I still didn't understand why my father wanted the boys here or anything.. It didn't make any sense. I got pretty bored just sitting there watching people being judged on the way they sang so I went up to dad to see what was going on. 

"Why are the boys from One Direction here.?" I asked sitting next to his chair.

He responded, "Oh, I'm going to be signing them. But it's a surprise so don't tell them anything. Why are you in here instead of managing the ice cream?"

I answered, "I was bringing the ice cream in and Niall and I kinda ran into eachother. That' s why I have his jacket on." Dad looked over at Niall with a glare, he obviously figured something was up and then looked back at me. 

"Okay, just be sure you tell me if anything is going on." He was very serious. I laughed and hugged him then walked away. 

Lydia walked in, she saw me and came running over. "Where have you been.? I have been looking all over for you girl!" 

"I'm sorry! I kinda bumped into Niall and got ice cream all over my shirt, so he gave me his-"

"HOLD UP. You bumped into Niall.? Okay, you're completely forgiven if you got his number." She winked and i looked down and blushed..

"No, i didn't get his number. I was just sitting with them. Harry is over thereeee." Lydia loves Harry, like i swear she must be in love with that boy. Haha. She looked over my shoulder and saw them. "Can I come sit with you guys?" She said in a cute little innocent voice. I grabbed her arm and pulled her over by us. 

"Boys, this is Lydia. You should already know her but she is my bestfriend. So be nice." I laugh and she waves to each of them as we sit down.

Lydia takes a seat next to Harry, obviously. He just kinda smiled at her and started watching once again. I know I shouldn't be here, I should be paying attention to the ice cream and making sure it's not melting or anything but I'm sitting next to Niall and my mind is getting foggy with what's right and what's wrong. 

After a few minutes of sitting in silence and watching what my father and the other judges were doing, Louis finally spoke up. "Well this has been an awkwardly interesting time but I think we should find something else to do." 

We laugh and each of us get up, what else is there to do here?

I walk up to dad once again and told him he should tell the boys now. He nods and heads over in our direction.

"Hello Simon, why is it you called us here?" Liam asked.

"Well, I want you boys to know.. Even though you didn't win. I'm still going to be signing you!" He announced, all the boys started yelling happily and hugging eachother, it was adorable. "So, we will start working next week. Until then, you boys are free to go!" 

They were all so excited that they practically ran out of the building, completely forgetting Lydia and I. Well, gee thanks Niall... 

We went back to manage the ice cream, which was gone now that each of the crew members had ate it. I said, "I guess we should be taking the truck back."

Lydia nodded and we walked out going back to the ice cream truck, the boys were nowhere in sight. I knew it would be too good to be true, why would Niall or any of the boys actually want to hang out with me?
