Chapter 11: Meet Niall POV- Georgia Rose

After Niall and the green-eyed girl went into Nando’s, two policemen were sent to “guard” the entrance of the restaurant.

“Excuse me,” I said, pushing through the crowd of girls who were trying to snap photos of Niall with their phones. As I approached the entrance, a policeman nodded at me.

“Here to eat?” he rumbled.

I nodded at him. “Yes, sir.”

He opened the glass door and let me in, pushing other girls out of the way. But, instead of ordering, I went straight to Niall and the green-eyed girl’s table. Niall was flinching slightly as he touched his head. He was hurt. Hot, angry tears flooded my eyes and threatened to spill over. How dare that fan! Well, so-called fan. No real fan of him would act like Niall was a serial killer and they were paid to hunt him down. I pinched myself. Crying was not the answer and wouldn’t solve anything.

As I approached their table, they both shrank back and exchanged worried glances. I could imagine what they were thinking; friend or tackler?

“Don’t worry. Those fans out there are half-crazy. I wouldn’t want to do anything like that. I would be ashamed to,” I said, trying to calm them down.

They exhaled, relaxing. But, even though I was so calm around Niall, my crazy directioner side was taking over. Oh, no. Restrain yourself, Georgia. Restrain. Yourself. But, I lost.

“I’m really sorry, but do you mind a picture, Niall?” I smiled sheepishly. Surprisingly, he said yes. I pulled out my camera, turned it around, and leaned next to Niall, sitting on the bench with them. After the picture, I put the camera back. “Thanks, a lot,” I said, thanking Niall. That was a one-in-a-lifetime moment.

I looked at Niall. He was more beat-up then I thought. His hat was missing, revealing a huge lump on his head. “Would you like my hat?” I asked. “You have a lump on your head.”

He smiled. “Yes, I would like it, but it’s yours, so no, I can’t,” he answered.

“Take it!” I thrust my black “Monster” hat into his hands.

“Well, thank you. What’s your name?”

“My name’s Georgia Rose Jones. I’m a senior in high school and taking photography,” I said, smiling as he put my hat on his head. “And you can have the hat. I have a ton of others.”

Niall looked at me. “No, you can have it back. I only need it until I get back to the hotel.” He paused, thinking. “Hey... why don’t you come and join us in our hotel room?” he asked. The green-eyed girl looked at Niall with a raised eyebrow, then shook her head, nodding a yes.

I looked at both of them. I was going to DIE of happiness. If Niall was staying at a hotel, then the rest of One Direction must be there, too! My dream was slowly coming true. “Of course!” I said, confirming my stay.
