Limitless (Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 14

Niall’s POV

“It’s time to get up!” Jane’s voice calls into my sweet dreams of Mia and me going to Paris together. As much as I want to stay in bed for the whole day, I know that I need to get up because today’s the day. I sit up and rub the sleep from my eyes as Mia begins to stir next to me.

“Morning gorgeous.” I whisper. I can see the others waking up too.

“Why are we being woken so bloody early?” Georgia complains as she yawns.

“Because, Niall has to get to boot camp.” Mia says sleepily.

“Well couldn’t we just go back to sleep?” Georgia groans causing me to chuckle. “What are you laughing at? There are going to be at least 4 grumpy girls when you get back tonight!” She snaps at me but it only makes me chuckle even more. I stand up at the same time as Mia and she wraps her arms around me in a hug, nervous butterflies that I hadn’t even realised that I have are soothed at her touch.

“Georgia’s not a morning person.” She whispers with a smile before adding. “You’re going to do great today, I believe in you.” She whispers as she looks up into my eyes. I smile at her before pulling her back into my embrace. I never want to let go but Halli has other ideas.

“Guys, it’s too early for that kind of thing.” Halli says throwing a pillow at us hitting me square in the shoulder. I laugh as Mia rolls her eyes at Halli and then takes me by the hand and begins leading me to the kitchen.

“Pancakes for breakfast if any of you can be bothered to get off your arses long enough to get some.” Mia calls over her shoulder with a smirk at me.

“Pancakes? Did she say pancakes?” Charlie’s voice floats along to us, and soon enough the sound of running feet can be heard and Charlie runs past us yelling. “PANCAKES!!!!” We laugh at her enthusiasm, and I thought I liked food. We enter the kitchen to see Charlie with one pancake covered in chocolate in her mouth and one on her plate. “These are amazing.” She says covering her mouth with her hand. I watch as Mia goes and gets herself a pancake and also smothers it in chocolate, and before the others can get theirs I grab mine. But they don’t taste nearly as good when you’re not covered in pancake mix and chocolate sauce, but they aren’t bad. I smile at Mia as the memory of that day floods through my mind. The others come through with rather grumpy looks on their faces which makes Mia and I laugh, I’m sure that Charlie will have too if she hadn’t been so engrossed in the eating of her pancakes. We all finish off our pancakes and wipe our mouths but I ‘m never any good at that and it isn’t long before Mia comes over with a cloth and wipes my chin.

“You’re such a mucky pup.” She tells me with a smile and I grin back at her. “Are you nervous?” She asks, and in all honesty I’m terrified, the butterflies that are swarming around my stomach won’t stop but I don’t want to worry her.

“No.” I say but I could hear the uncertainty creeping into my voice. She wraps her arms around my waist and rests her head against my chest, my chin resting on top.

“You are going to do great and no matter what happens, I will always be here for you and so will your family and friends.” She says reassuringly as she pulls away slightly. I nod and smile down at her before giving her one more squeeze.

“Are you ready to go son?” Bobby asks as he comes into the room, everything goes quiet as they all turn to look at me, and I nod. I look down at Mia.

“You will be here when I get back right? You’re not going anywhere?” I ask even though I know that she will be, where else would she go? But I need to hear her say it.

“Of course I will.” She says with a reassuring smile. I nod again before turning towards the door. I follow my father out and just before I get into the car with Jane, Chris and my dad, I turn and wave one last time to Mia, who is now standing in the doorway with the girls waving from behind. This is it, I can do this. I get into the car and shut the door, now’s my time to shine.
