Twenty-One. A Weekend In LA

(A/N-  So this chapter is slightly shorter than the rest but contains the entire weekend that Niall spends in LA with Ryan.  Next update on Wednesday!!  Enjoy, darlings!!  xx   )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the flight over to America I had plenty of time to think about everything, absolutely everything.  Not that I really wanted to but I just couldn’t stop my mind.

I thought about the first time I met Harry.  I thought about our first kiss.  I thought about our first time.  I thought about first date in his house.  I thought about our first fight.  I thought about when I moved in with him.  I thought about our beautiful two and a half years together and the last six months that were anything but beautiful.  I thought about it all.

I then became very thankful for Ryan.  I was thankful that he was there for me throughout the breakup and also thankful that he felt the same about me when I revealed my feelings for him. 

I also played through the last time I saw Ryan a couple weeks ago and how much has changed since then.  I still very much have feelings for him but now I have never been more unsure of what or rather who I want.

The kiss with Jamie gave me clarity that it was ok to kiss someone who wasn’t Ryan, and maybe prepared me for the kiss that I shared with Harry.  However unexpected it was, and no matter how off guard he caught me with it, I couldn’t deny the instant spark and overwhelming feelings inside.  I wanted more of his lips.  I wanted more of him.  I wanted it to never stop.

I finally touched down at LAX and grabbed my carry-on luggage from the overhead compartment.  I’ll only be here for three days, so there was no need to check anything.   The plan would be that I would take a car that Ryan has waiting for me and would be driven to his hotel.  My nerves were building at the thought of being in Ryan’s arms again in just a few short minutes.

I pulled up to the back of the hotel and walked in through a side entrance as to avoid any type of paps that could be waiting out front.  I stood in the elevator, biting my nails nervously and rocking back and forth on my feet.  The car stopped at floor twenty and made the ding for its arrival.  I exited the elevator and walked down the corridor to suite number twenty-ten.  I stood in front of the door for a few minutes before I finally knocked.  The door swung open quickly and I was met with his beautiful hazel eyes and bright smile.

“Baby” I whispered and fell into his arms.  He held onto me tightly and led me into the room, shutting the door behind us.

“I’ve missed you so much” He muffled out; his lips pressed tightly to my neck.  I pulled away and looked into his eyes.

“I’ve missed you, too.” I replied and then continued to hold his body close to mine.

We stayed like that for a few minutes, eventually breaking enough to be able to walk safely to the couch and sit down.  I was practically on his lap but neither of us minded.  We stayed close; absorbing each other’s warmth and smell.
