Before I start this chapter, Im letting you know in advance that the "A" button on my laptop is wonky right now. Sometimes an' A' will come up and sometimes it won't so sorry. :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I brace myself for the colder air outside of the steaming shower. Its awful. Everytime. I wrap myself in a big fluffy towel and head to my room to get dressed. I rummage through my drawers and find some 'Soffee' shorts and an oversized sweatshirt. I slip them on and look in the mirror. I should do something with my hair for tomorrow. I brush it out and look for some mousse in my mum's room. I let it ir dry and put in some anti-friz gel or whatever. Pray to God it works.
"I'm back!" Tony yells and echoes throughout the house as he slams the door shut.
"Hi Tony! How was work?" I yell back to him.
"Stressful."
I meet him in the kitchen as he searches the cabinets.
"What are you looking for?"
"Have we got any Walkers Crisps or Hobnobs? I'm starving!" He groans.
"Yea. There should be a bag of Walkers on the shelf." I reply as I grab a package of Jaffa Cakes from the counter. I shove two in my mouth and watch Tony try to find the bag. I search the shelves myself and find the bag. "Uh Tony? They are right there stupid." I nod up a shelf. He looks at me and then back at the shelf.
"I knew that." He snatches the his desired snack and starts snarfing handfuls of crisps. "So little sister," He says between mouthfuls, "How was your day today?"
"Well I was chosen to be co-captian of the team today. And I got a 98% on my Trig test. SO my day was pretty good." i reply nonchalantly.
"YOU WERE! OH MY GOD LIZZIE THATS FANTASTIC!!" My brother shouts a bit to loudly.
"Whats with all the shouting?" My mum says as she comes down the stairs.
"Mum! Lizzie is cocaptian of the team!"
Her eyes go wide and a smile spreads across her face. "Im so proud of you Lizzie! I knew you would! This calls for a celebration. Saturday night we are going out for dinner." She and Tony give me a bonecrushing hug of congratulations.
"I appreciate to love right now, but I can't breathe. Please let go." I choke out. They immediately let go with apologetic faces. We sit around after that and snack some more.
Niall's POV
My parents just finished a cage match nd have returned to their own corners for the night. Ed nd I crawl out of the corner. I stretch and yawn.
"Eddie are you hungry?"
"Of course Niall. I'm always hungry. And so are you. Why did you even ask that question?" Damn that boy can be sassy.
"Alright Mr. Sassy. What do you want to eat?" I ask as we walk down to the kitchen.
"Hmm. Porridge with brown sugar." he replies matter-of-factly.
"Alright coming up." I gather all the ingredients and turn on the stove. "How was school today, Ed?"
"Fine. Mrs. Trenchboul gave us a suprise test and Jimmy didn't take it."
"Why didn't Jimmy take the test?"
"He was too surprised. It was funny really."
"Sounds like you had a good day."
i mix the porridge nd the hot watr and milk together. Sprinkle some brown sugar on top. And handed it to my brother.
"I did have a good day. How was your day Niall?"
Flashbacks of the day come into thought. "My day was pretty great."
"And why is that?" he asks. He is so nosy.
"Well. I did pretty well on a test I got back and my friend Lizzie and I had a great ride home today. We sang songs and talked. and she fell asleep in my arms." i can't help but smile.
His young mind is trying to process what i said. "A girl? Do you like her Niall?"
I think of her eyes, the way she looked asleep, personality , her laugh, voice everything. I love everything about her. "YOu know what bud, I do. I like her, a lot."
"Can I meet her? Is she pretty? Will she like me? Are you dating her? Does she have cooties?"
A thousand questions fly at me. "Hold up. Too many questions." I take a bite of porridge and mentally prepare to answer these questions. "You will meet her some day soon, She is gorgeous like a model, Im sure she will love you, No im not dating her. and no Im pretty sure she doesn't have cooties. Good?"
he thinks over my answers. "Good." I turn away to put the bowls in the dishwasher when Ed asks, "Niall? Do you want her to be your girlfriend?" Im caught off guard. I turn back to him. Deep breaths. "I would love for her to be my girlfriend but I don't know if she likes me back in that way. I don't want to bring her into this mess though. ya know. Its all up to her mate." I reply honestly.
"Well, I hope she does. Because you need someone to make you happy, besides me." He looks up at me and smiles. I'm stunned at his statement. We jsut sit there, talk and snack on some Crunchie bars. I start to hum a song
"Niall, will you sing for me?"
"O' course."
Life's too short to even care at all, oh I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control, oh oh These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh Oh oh oh oh A wet world aches for a beat of a drum Oh If I could find a way to see this straight I'd run away To some fortune that I, I should have found by now I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down.'' ( Cough Syrup- Young the Giant)
