Limitless (Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 22

Mia's POV

"Mia wake up, today's the day." Comes the excited voice of Georgia in my ear as I slowly open my eyes to a blinding light coming from the window.

"The day for what? What time is it? And why did you open my curtains before I was even awake?" I ask grumpily as I shut my eyes again and roll over. I have a thumping headache and Georgia sounds far too cheerful for this early in the morning.

"It's 8am and it's the 3rd of September!" Georgia squeals and I pull my pillow over my head. Why does that date sound so familiar, is there something important happening today that I forgot about.

"It's results collection day!" She squeals excitedly, pulling my pillow away from me. I sit bolt upright momentarily forgetting about my headache and wincing as the pain throbs slightly harder.

"Oh yeah, I completely forgot, but why they have to give us our results a few days before we go back I will never know." I say putting a hand to my bandaged head.

"Yeah well you have to get up if we're ever going to make it in time!" She says, her voice still too loud for me.

"Shhh, I have a headache and you aren't helping." I complain as I slowly stand up from my nice warm bed.

"Well Louis says that he's going to drive us there, isn't that nice." She grins completely ignoring my plea for her to be quiet.

"Yes, lovely, now if you want me to get up then you will have to go and get me something for my headache." I say and she nods.

"By the way, Niall said something about you needing to take off your bandage since it should have healed enough by now and the doctor says to air your little injury so that it heals even faster." She then turns back towards the door and leaves. Wow she's in a good mood, but there's no doubt in my mind that it's because of Louis, they're so cute together and yet they aren't official or anything yet. I trudge into the bathroom and look at my reflection, I look awful especially with the bandage, I hate taking off bandages or anything like that, it always grosses me out but I bravely take hold of one side, take a deep breath and pull it away to reveal a rather disgusting looking cut. It's just in my hair line which means that when it's healed a bit more, my hair will cover it and people won't be able to see it as much. I gently brush my hair before stepping into the shower, letting the water wash away any dried blood that there may have been. The shower wakes me up a bit and when I look into the mirror for the second time, the cut looks much less noticeable and less gross than before. I apply a small amount of makeup avoiding the cut so that I don't give myself an infection before leaving the bathroom to find a glass of milk, a tablet and a Niall in my room, thank goodness I'm wearing my dressing gown and not just my towel.

"Good morning gorgeous, I've missed saying that." He smiles as I take the glass of milk from him and the tablet, my headache's going but it's still there. "How are you feeling this morning?"

"Ok other than the headache and now I have nervous butterflies for my results." I admit, putting the half glass of milk down on my bedside table.

"You will have done great, I mean come on, you're smart enough to have been moved up a year and I know that you're far smarter than me and I'm pretty smart so you will have done amazingly." He whispers the last part into my ear as he pulls me gently onto his lap. I shrug my shoulders and snuggle into him.

"I wish we could just stay here, like this." I whisper back.

"Me too." He lifts my chin up and brings his lips down on mine giving me a gentle kiss before pulling away and resting his forehead to mine.

"I should get back downstairs, I only said that I was bringing you your milk and that was about ten minutes ago." He tells me after a while.

"Ok." I sigh, slowly standing up. Before leaving he kisses me one last time, I stand there for a few minutes before moving over to my wardrobe and deciding what to wear. I want to look smart but casual as well since I'm going to school. After narrowing my choice down to three dresses, Georgia comes in to hurry me along.
