Stealer || Niall Horan

Chapter 7

Niall's Point Of View

This is not good at all. The first day I get to talk to her something bad like this has to happen. The paparazzi took a picture of me and Alex, when I fell on her. It shouldn't matter because it proves nothing but people are thinking otherwise. I need to text her and check on her because I don't want my fans to say bad things about her and her to be confused. Hopefully they don't find her social media. I send her a message and she quickly replies.

Alex's Point Of View

'Hey Alex!' The message reads. I don't know what to say because I'm currently so tired and if I say something wrong he might not like me.

'Hey Niall, did you make it home?' I text back hoping to get a reply back fast.

'Yeah I'm home. I was wondering if you were okay?' He replies. I don't understand why he's asking about this, he doesn't know much about me or my past. He's probably just trying to make small talk.

'Yeah I'm fine.' I reply hoping that he'll keep the convo going without just saying okay.

'That's good... so hey I was wondering if you would like to go somewhere with me tomorrow?' He replies and my heart starts to beat fast. He just asked me out. I have no idea on what to say because I'm socially awkward and if I'm alone with him it's gonna be bad, but I could just bring Catherine.

'Yeah sure, is it okay if I bring Catherine?' I reply hoping that he'll say yes.

'Yeah sure, can I bring Liam? They seemed to get along pretty well.' He replies and I get very happy for no apparent reason. Maybe it's just the thought of a guy actually being okay with my opinion in things because my ex never cared and never allowed me to make my own choices. But now Niall is asking me, so it's different.

'Yeah, where is this destination?' I ask wondering where he could take me.

'My home, I have something planned, if you want I'll pick you up by 6:30. Oh and also wear something comfortable.' He replies and my heart starts to beat fast. I don't know if it's because it's the first time I'll ever go to a guys house. What if he's trying to kill me? How am I supposed to know?

'Are you going to kill us?' I hesitantly reply as a joke.

'Don't plan on it ;)' He replies, kinda sketch.

'Okay. I have to go so goodnight, Nialler' I reply, I DID NOT JUST CALL HIM THAT! Oh dear god I don't know why I said Nialler...who the hell is Nialler? Ugh let's just hope he doesn't find that weird. Why did that name even come up?

'Okay, goodnight, Alex' He replied and I felt so relieved, I'm so happy he didn't think it was weird.

*the next day at 5:00*

"CATHERINE I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING!" I yell while she's right next to me.

"Whaaattt?" She asks not even paying attention to me, all her attention is on her phone.

"Me and you have a date with guys for tonight." I say as I notice she drops her phone and stares at me.

"First of all, with who? Second of all, when did you ever have the courage to say yes and actually go out on a date with someone?" She asks looking at me with curious eyes.

"Well your date is with Liam, and my date is with Niall. And I really don't know I just feel so comfortable around Niall so I guess that's why I had the courage to say yes." I say while I notice Catherine's big smile on her face.

"AT WHAT TIME IS THIS DATE?" She yells in excitement.

"Well Niall said he would pick us up at around 6:30." I say hoping we have enough time to get ready as I look at the clock.

"THAT'S NOT ENOUGH TIME TO GET READY!" She yells as she gets up and starts looking through her luggage.

"I know, I know I forgot to tell you earlier. Just try to rush it." I say while getting up myself but instead of rushing I do the complete opposite and take my time.

"UHH I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WEAR!" She screams as she plops back down onto the bed. I go through her luggage and find a really nice dress.

"Oh really, nothing nice to wear?" I say sarcastically and she takes the dress and runs to the bathroom. I don't know if I want to wear a dress because that's just not me, but it's for someone other than me so I'll still do it. I quickly go through my closet and grab a lilac sweater and black jeans. I also grab a pair of converse because I'm not wearing any heels and I'm trying to be comfortable like he said.

*ring ring*

I hear the phone buzz as if someone is calling me. It's Niall. He must already be here but it's only 5:16 and he said he would pick us up at 6 or 6:30. I hope he isn't here.

"Hello?" I say waiting for a response.

"Hi Alex! I'm just calling to tell you that I'm going to be there at 6." he says while I started to get dressed.

"Okay, if anything happens I'll let you know." I say while I sit down on my bed.

"Okay, see you soon." He says as I hang up and lay down.

*6:00*

*BEEP BEEP*

I hear a car beeping outside. I'm guessing it was Niall and Liam. I start to grab my things to finally go down and suddenly get nervous and want to not go but obviously Catherine forces me to.

We walk downstairs and I notice that Niall is at the door with flowers. I open the door and Niall looks so adorable and he looks very comfortable. All of the sudden Catherine starts whining about cramps which I don't understand why because she's not even on her period because then she would've had it before.

"Ugh. I don't think I can go anymore, I have really bad cramps." She whines making me understand why she's doing this. She wants it to be just me and Niall.

"Oh, that's bad. Should I reschedule?" He asks looking down with a frown.

"NO NO! Just go with Alex and Liam will just have to reschedule himself." Catherine says quickly trying to get us out the door and into the car.

"Are you sure I mean I can always do it tomorrow?" He says. I don't know if he just doesn't want to do it now because he seems like it.

"No it's okay just go." She says nudging him.

"Okay, feel better!" He says while grabbing my hand and walking me towards the vehicle. He opens the door and lets me go in.

"TAKE CARE OF HER!" I hear Catherine scream.

"I WILL!" Niall screams back as we drive off.
