Chapter 3

Gone out

It's about 6:45 now and Niall will be here at 7:30 so I should probably be getting ready. I get up from my spot in the living room where I was unpacking and grab my suitcase from today and wheel it to my room. My room is huge and gorgeous. It's a light blue on one wall and the other three it's a very light grey. I have a HUGE walk in closet and big ensuite. I have a king sized bed with grey sheets and blue pillows. It's quite nice!

I open my suitcase not knowing what I should wear? I decide on a strapless white high low lace dress with a sweet heart neck line. I match it with a light blue denim jacket and some hoop earrings. I put on cute brown sandals and touch up my makeup. My hair is already curled so I leave it as is. I throw some more lip gloss on and I grab my brown satchel and wait.

2 minutes later Niall knocks on the door. "Come in, it's unlocked" I want him to think I'm not completely ready yet so he doesn't think I was anticipating for the date, though I was. I hear him walk in and shut the door. "I will be out in a second just make yourself at home" I laugh at that because I haven't even made myself at home!

I walk out and he is sitting on the couch staring at the wall. "Wow. You look incredible!" He laughs and I giggle. He passes me some roses. And I just giggle more. "They are so gorgeous! You didn't have to do that". I giggle at how lame we both are! "Shall we go?" He chimes. I nod. I'm surprised my trust issues haven't built a wall yet?

We go to the elevator and are both quiet. My anxiety and trust problems are both running. What if he ends up being a jerk? What if he makes me pay? Do I have enough money for that? He could just want to get laid? What if that's all he wants? Huh? Maybe he just wants sex!? Then I'd look like an idiot because that's not what I'm looking for! I mean I'm not a virgin! But I don't put out on the first night.

We hit the bottom and the elevator dings and the doors slide open. We walk out and he opens his car door for me and walks over to his side. I thank him. He gets in and we buckle. Niall fiddles with the radio, which doesn't seem to work, then gives up in frustration as I laugh. "It's ok we can chat" he smiles with that cheesy smile. Dayum! I've just realized my choice of words have been so weird! "So why exactly do you like it here? Why did you leave your home to be exact?" He chuckles. Oh my fuck! He is so perfect! "I just think this place is awesome. I did a project back in elementary and fell in love!" I laugh. "That's cool, but you still didn't answer why you left home" he laughs. My wall is building. I can't trust him can I? I can't just tell him why! I will make a half excuse! "Um, wanted complete freedom, you know?" He laughs at my answer and I just smile. We pull over at some nice Italian restaurant.

Niall opens my door for me once more and we head in. "Table for Horan" he asks the hostess and she grabs our menus and leads the way. That is so cute that he made reservations. I can feel I smile growing on my face. "Here's your table, your waitress will be here in a few minutes" the hostess smiles and walks off. She sat us in a booth we low lighting and candles lit.

"This place is gorgeous!" I smile. "Yeah, I really like it" Niall smiles back "you look stunning Skyler", I can feel the wall growing taller. Should I believe him? What if this is all a dare by some lads or something? That's happened before.... "Thanks" I blush. "Ok skyler, we are both being really awkward and are words are like old people! Like what the fuck?" He laughs and I join in. "I was thinking the same damn thing!" I keep laughing.

~~Niall's P.O.V.~~

Skyler is the most beautiful girl! I feel like I'm gonna fuck it up majorly. I usually grow a wall after my last girlfriend cheated on me. I have trust problems with girls. I end up being a douche so I don't get hurt. Skyler is so different! So unique! So damn sexy! This is so weird considering for most girls I take them to Nandos on our first date, which is usually the last.
