Strong | The Back For You Series | A Harry Styles Fan Fiction

Dimples and Cheekbones

"So I put my hands up they're playing my song! The butterflies fly away! Niall!" I belt out as  Niall drives down the Irish streets. We just got back from touring in the USA and he was showing me around Ireland. 

"Noddin my head like yeah! Movin my hips like yeah! I got my hands up, they're playing my song! I know I'm gonna be okay! Yeah, It's a party in my car! Yeah It's a party in my car!"I laugh at Niall and throw my head back. "Hell! I forgot! We have to go see Madi! I told her I'd see here the moment I get home. You mind Har? I told her you'd be with me." 

"Yeah I guess that's fine." I nod and he quickly turns the corner. The two of us have been running around like this since we've gotten home this morning. You'd think we'd sleep. Nah. Sleeps for the weak. "Where does she live?" I ask as he slows down. "Here?"

"Oh this is just some strangers house. Yes here you idiot!" He gets out and fixes his jacket. "You're coming in Harold!" Niall puts his head back in the car and yells at me. 

"Niall! Calm down!" I yell back and get out slowly. I honestly didn't want to be here. I did want to go home and sleep. Niall's couch would even be enough for me. I didn't get enough sleep on tour. I didn't want to appear rude but I was really, really tired. Now wasn't the time for visiting. "Who is this girl anyway?" I ask. 

"Hey, be nice to her. She's special. She's just a friend I've known forever. She's the only kid that lived on this road growing up." He reached up and goes for the door bell. Before he even touches it the door flies open, revealing a short bruennette. 

Beautiful. Not what I was expecting really. She stood at chin level for me as she hugged Niall. Her long brown hair hung far past her shoulders, almost to her butt. She looked over at me and smiled. I was frozen. 

"You brought the curly haired one? I thought you were bringing Liam!" She says with a Irish accent. It was cute. 

"Yeah, you shall call him Harry!" Niall says and I look over at him, shaking my head. Finding Nemo... 

"If you didn't notice, I'm Harry." I reach out and her small hand shakes mine. I was hesitiant to let go but I had to. "uh...oh...Hat..I should probably..take this off." What an awful thig to say. She probably thinks I'm an idiot anyway. I shove my hat into my sleeve as I take my coat off. 

'Oh I'll take that..." She grabs for mine and Niall's coat and invites us in. We both follow her in and I look up and down her body. That ass though. I find myself staring when Niall elbows me as we get to the living room. 

"Sorry..." I mummble as she says something about food and disappears into the back room.

"Harold don't think about it. She's not yours okay. She's mine." Niall says and gives me the glare. 

"Oh...she's your girlfriend?! You didn't say you had a girlfriend." I say quietly. 

"Well no. She's more like my sister... don't mess around with her. Okay? You'll have to get through me Harold." He scowls and puts his feet up on the table. 

"Okay Mr Tough Guy." I laugh. Suddenly I'm hit in the back of the head by a bag of crisps and turn around.  She stood there with her hand over her mouth. 

"I'm so so so sorry Harry! That was suppose to hit the blonde boy!" She says and dissapears back into the bathroom. She seemed nervous. Well I was too. She's gorgeous. I've never really been nervous around girls before. It wasn't like me. Well, she was prettier than I was I guess. I couldn't pull out something funny to say while she's around. She  was making me nervous. 

"Is she normally a little studdery?" I ask Niall. 

"Not at all..." He flips throught the channels on the TV, finally landing on a football game. "You're not ugly. She's never met you.  You're a giant flirt!" He says and looks at me. "You make her crazy, but remember what I said. Hands off." He stops talking as she walks into the room. She smiles at me as she takes her seat in a recliner. Her smile was beautiful...Dimples and cheekbones... She had a nice face. A pretty beautiful face. Let alone body.  Name! I didn't get a name! How could I not catch a name?! 

"I'm sorry I'm an idiot..." I start and Niall scoffs. "I didn't catch your name..." I say and lean forward, putting a hand on her knee. I waited for a few seconds, doing my best to look her in the eyes. 

"Um...uh...Madison.." She studders and smiles.

 "That's very pretty." I say. I could feel Niall's glare on me. "Something wrong Ni?" 

"Yup. I'll tell you when we get back to my house." Niall frowns and looks back at the TV. Madison and I just stare at each other for a bit. I'm finally able to speak again and swallow. 

"Uh so Madison...how long are you here?" Stupid question! Why the hell would I ask that!?! I'm stupid. 

"Well Harry...I live here...so for a while I guess." She says and laughs at me. I look away from her as I become nervous again.

"Here..here's my number..I'm here for a week or so. If you want to just hang out, you should call me." I type my number into her phone and look back up to her. "Your smile is beautiful..." I say, speaking the truth. She took my phone and did the same after I said that. Scrolling through my phone I saw it. Madi McKay. 'You're cute...Ilike it.. Tomorrow morning breakfast? shhhh!'  I text her and she looks up and nods. 

"Um...I'm going to make some dinner..." She stands up. Crap...I'm scaring her off! Harry you're being over baring! Stop!  I tell myself to just calm down. Madi might not even like me. Who knows. It's hard to find girls that really like you being me. It really is. Who knows... we can just see where this takes me. 

"I'll be back. Stay here." Niall says and stands up. I could tell I pissed him off.Niall was a hard person to anger but I did it. I know what I did was sort of un thoughtful but.. Madison is just...beautiful. How could a boy like me resist. I'll just apologize when we get back to his flat. 

I could smell the food from the kitchen and I was quickly called to the table. "Um Madi is sitting there" Harry scolds me again as I take  a seat. I just roll my eyes and go to the seat across from her. "It looks delicious Madi." Niall pats her head and sits next to her. I feel a soft tap on my ankle and look up at her. She has a flirty smile on her face as she listens to Niall, just looking at me. I played along and rubbed my foot against hers. We quickly just locked ankles for the rest of the night as Niall and I told stories. "We should get going Harry." Niall said and I nodded. "C'mon." 

"I'll be there in a minute." I answer and he blows me off, slamming the door as he walks out. Sorry Niall.... I follow her to the door and leaned into her. "You're really beautiful, I wasn't lying." I wanted to kiss her. Everything in my body was telling me to kiss her. I couldn't though. I shouldn't really. "I'm so sorry... I'm rushing things. If I ever freak you out punch me in the face. Square in the nose." 

"I couldn't do that." She smiles and I pull away. "See you tomorrow Har.." She walked me out and Niall's car was gone. "He only lives right across the street..." she points and Nialls car sits in the driveway. "See you later Har.." I wave and make my way back to his flat. 

"What the hell Harold!" Niall yells at me as I walk in the door. His parents both sat in the kitchen and I didn't know what to say. 

"Uh...we can talk about this somewhere else." I say and follow him up the stairs. "I know Niall I'm sorry. I really shouldn't have done that. You told me one simple rule and I broke it. I'm sorry." I say and he just stares at me. "I'm sorry Niall." 

"All you did was flirt with her all night! What the hell! Like I don't know how to tell you how mad I am! It really just pisses me off. The moment we walked in you just checked her out! Literally can't you control yourself?!" He yells at me. 

"I told you I'm sorry. But please, can I please have a chance with her?" I practically beg him and start pulling clothes off until I'm in boxers. He does the same and lays on the bed. 

"Fine, but if you hurt her. I'm literally going to kill you. I'm going to rip out you ausophogaus!" He crawls under the covers and turns away. "You can sleep here or in Gregs old room." 

"Here's fine." I really didn't care about sleeping in the same bed as Niall. It's normal. 

I have a date tomorrow....I have a first date! How am I even going to go to sleep tonight.
