Chapter 16

I smiled and ran my fingers through Niall's hair. Last night was a lot of fun. And no, we didn't have sex, pervert. I was talking about the barbeque. A bunch of Niall's friends and cousins came over and it was a lot of fun. 

Of course then that night we slept on his new mattress and now I understand why Niall is so damn obsessed with it. It's so fucking comfortable. Now that it's Monday night, I get to sleep on it again and I couldn't be happier.

Today we had just hung out in his flat, watching movies and stuff. I was still a bit jetlagged so it was nice to just lounge around.

I stood up off the couch, causing Niall's head to fall off my lap. He groaned and I laughed.

"Come back."

"Come on, pop star, time for bed."

He shot up and raced to the bedroom, belly flopping on the bed.

"SO FUCKING COMFORTABLE!"

I laughed, shaking my head at him. I walked over to my bag, rummaging through it.

"Come lay with me."

I looked over at him and he smiled at me while he was wrapped under all the blankets. It was honestly adorable. I reached for my phone in my back pocket and snapped a picture causing him to roll his eyes.

"Did you not get enough pictures of me last time we did this?"

"You can never have enough pictures."

"That's very true, now come to bed."

"I can't find my pajamas in this mess of a suitcase."

I looked down to my bag, throwing everything out of it so I could see everything easier. I felt something hit my back and I turned around to see Niall lying shirtless in the bed. I looked down at the ground and saw his shirt was the thing that hit me.

"Put it on."

I raised my eyebrows at him.

"But then I wouldn't have any pants."

"Oh come on, Tess. You're like a midget compared to me. My shirt will probably be a dress on you."

I rolled my eyes but grabbed it and walked into the bathroom. I took off my clothes but kept my undergarments on. I pulled Niall's shirt over my head and looked in the mirror. Niall was right. The shirt reached my mid-thigh and covered my butt completely. I threw me hair up in a messy bun and took my contacts out, replacing them with my glasses. I brushed my teeth and walked back out to see Niall.

"Finally, now come lay with me!"

I crawled into bed with him and he instantly wrapped himself around me, covering me up with blankets in the process. I turned to face him and buried my face in his warm chest. He played with my hair and I smiled causing him to laugh.

He stopped laughing and I looked up at him seeing a worried expression on his face. I traced the frown lines on his face and leaned up to kiss him. He immediately kissed back but when I pulled away, the frown lines were still there. If anything there seemed to be more of them.

"What's wrong, Ni?"

He sat up and sighed, pulling me onto his lap.

"Can I ask you something?"

I nodded and ran my fingers through his hair. He grabbed both my hands and held them in his.

"Um, I don't exactly know how to ask you this..."

My heart fluttered. Was he finally going to ask me to be his girlfriend? He opened his mouth to speak and my heart swelled waiting for those 5 words to fill the air.
