Limitless (Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 33

Mia’s POV

We all enter the house to find that my parents are now back from work.

“Hey guys so how was your day?” My mum asks as we pass into the kitchen.

“Good thank you Jane.” Niall replies with a smile which she returns as she continues to empty the dish washer. The others exchange polite conversation with my mum before we move through to our favourite hangout place…the screening room passing my dad on the way.

“So Niall how do you want to spend the rest of your birthday?” Harry asks as we all sit in various positions, me on Niall’s lap.

“I don’t mind really I mean I have had a great day as it is.” He says smiling at me and kissing me gently on the cheek causing me to blush slightly.

“Ok, ok we get it you don’t need to make it any more obvious you guys want some alone time.” Zayn says smirking at us and I bite my bottom lip as I turn to Niall who’s grinning.

“Yes, yes we do, so Louis that means no sneak attacks.” He says giving Louis a meaningful look.

“Fine, but we need our Niall to be well rested for tomorrow so you had better not keep him up Mia.” Louis teases throwing a wink in my direction.

“Louis!” Georgia scolds whacking his arm but giggling. I roll my eyes before leaning back and resting my head on Niall’s shoulder.

“Go on you two and we‘ll come and get you when we get bored.” Harry says smirking and waving at us with his hands. I’m about to get up but Niall’s too fast for me as he scoops me into his arms much to my protesting.

“Niall! Put me down!” I squeal but he simply laughs and shakes his head and since it’s obvious that he isn’t planning on putting me down anytime soon, I stop struggling and just relax into his arms. He walks straight outside and puts me down by the pool but it’s only for a second while he lays down before he pull me down to lie next to him.

“You know you never told me what you said in the car earlier.” He says gently and I keep my head on his chest refusing to look at him knowing that what I said was probably too soon and that it could really freak him out.

“Erm, I don’t really remember.” I mumble and snuggle further into his chest.

“Mia look at me.” He says and I somewhat reluctantly lift myself up onto my elbow and turn my face to his. “I think that I know what you said.” He says and my eyes widen slightly.

“You do?” I question turning my face away from his again, biting my lip.

“Yes I do.” He almost whispers as he turns my head gently with his thumb and somehow manages to sit up properly. “And Mia when you said what I think you said, I thought that my heart was going to burst but then Louis interrupted and well you know.” He says and I smile shyly at him through my lashes. “Mia…I…I love you.” He stutters in the most adorable way and I feel my heart rate quicken and my hands become slightly sweaty even in the cool breeze.

“I love you too, so much.” I respond quickly smiling and leaning up and kissing him passionately knocking him back so that he’s lying down again.

“This is by far the best birthday ever.” He says grinning up at me once we’ve broken apart.

“Oh my gosh!” I gasp and I just catch his confused look as I jump off him and run in doors and straight up to my bedroom. I bend down and pull out the presents that I’d bought for him before rushing back downstairs to find that Niall’s sat in the same position that I left him in looking at the door that I’m now emerging from holding the gifts in my arms.
