"Ouch!" I yelled as I fell out of bed. When I hit the ground it was a loud thump. "You ok Em?" My mom asked from downstairs. "Ya I just fell out of bed. I could here her laugh a bit.

I walked downstairs and got breakfast. A blueberry muffin and chocolate milk. I ate slowly because I was half asleep. I stayed up late texting Niall. When I finished I put my glass in the dishwasher and went back upstairs to my room.

I sat down on my bed and reached to get my phone off of the table. I turned it on and I already had a text from Niall.

"Good morning:)"

I texted him back good morning. And when he responded, we kept texting. I loved talking to him. Everything was natural.

I asked him if he wanted to come over and of course he said yes. I told him that I would walk to his house to pick him up once I was ready.

I walked over to my dresser and took out a light pink romper, slid on some sandals, and left my long hair down. I quickly brushed my teeth and when I was finished I went downstairs. "I'm going to get Niall. I'll be right back." I said as I walked through the door. I didn't stay long enough to hear their response because I started to run. I wanted to be with him as soon as possible.

I ran about 10 minutes up the street until I got to his house. I walked to the front door and knocked. I could hear Niall say bye to his mom, dad, and brother. Then he opened the door and as soon as he saw me he smiled. "Hey Em." He said as he walked out the door. "Hey." I said out of breathe. "What's wrong you look tired?" He asked. "I just ran for like 10 minutes straight." "Well hop on my back." I was way too tired to refuse so when he turned around I jumped up and wrapped my arms around his neck and wrapped my legs around his waist. "Wow you're really light." He said. "Thank you." He started walking and he pretended to fall a couple times to scare me, he laughed when I screamed. My hair started to droop in front of his face, so he blew it away. "Oh sorry." I said as I pulled my hair back.

When he got back to my house I slipped off of his back and we went inside. "I'm back!" I yelled to my parents. I didn't hear them respond so I assumed they were outside. I grabbed his hand and pulled him outside. I found my mom sitting on the deck reading a book and my dad was on the dock, fishing. "Mom, Niall is here." She looked up from her book and smiled. "Oh Niall, how nice to see you again." He said the same to her.

I took Niall down to our little beach over to the volleyball net. "Do you know how to play?" I asked, picking up the volley ball. "Ya but I'm not very good." He took his position on the opposite side of the net from me. I hit the ball over the net and he missed. I playfully laughed at him, and he did too. We continued to play and he gradually got better. When our game finished, he started to juggle the ball with his feet. "Do you play football?" He asked me. I looked at him confused. Why would I play football? "Oh ya, I forgot. You guys call it soccer over here." Now I understood what he meant. "Ya I played for my school for a couple of years." I said. I probably wasn't nearly as good as he was though. Just watching him do tricks with the ball I could tell he was really good. We started playing soccer for a while and when we finished, the score was 15-6. Niall won. "I let you win." I said jokingly. He smiled at me. "Oh ya, that's it." He laughed. He put the ball next to the net, where we found it before, then he walked over to me. He hugged me and he wrapped his arms around my neck and I wrapped mine around his waist, and we rested our heads on each others shoulders. I guess my mother saw us because almost immediately she called us into the house to help her set up for lunch. I released from the hug, disappointed, and we walked into the kitchen.

"Ok what do we have to do?" I asked. "Take out for plates, cups, and silverware for each of us put them on the table." We did what she asked and sat down next to each other at the table. She put a bowl of salad in front of us and put a ham and cheese sandwich on each of our plates. I put some salad on my plate and put some Italian dressing on top, Niall did the same. We didn't talk much because after my mother saw us hugging she was watching us like a hawk. I think she and my dad were getting suspicious of me and Niall.

They were normally pretty cool, but when it came to boys, they went over the edge. It wasn't fair because Niall is becoming special to me. I keep telling myself not to feel this way because I probably won't see him again after this. We live in two different countries! I guess we could have a long distance relationship, but it would hurt too much not to be able to be with him. What was I getting myself into?

We put our dirty dishes in the dishwasher and went back outside. I laughed at my dad a little because he was still fishing. He loved it, he could fish all day.

Me and Niall went back to our little beach and started drawing pictures in the sand with sticks. He started getting a little too carried away and drew inappropriate pictures. I laughed a lot and tried to cover them up. "What are to doing? Those are master pieces!" He said as he picked me up to stop ruining his pictures. He spun me around a few times and then put me down.

We hung out outside for a little while. We played in the water, we played more volleyball (Niall was determined to beat me), and soccer. I started getting late and a little chilly so we went inside to eat dinner. We didn't have anything too big because we had a late lunch. When we finished I offered to watch a movie. "Sure what movie do you want to watch?" He asked. "Um, let's watch Titanic. I love that movie." He agreed with me so I went up to change into pajamas, I popped some popcorn, put the movie in, and we snuggled on the couch. A little while into the movie my parents walked into the house to go to bed, they were so tired I don't even think they noticed us. But that's good because that means that Niall can stay longer.

Niall had his arm around me and I had mine around his waist with my head on his chest. The whole movie I was thinking about what Niall said to me at the beach. I knew I would miss him after summer, but we weren't there yet. We still have a long way to go. So, I figured why not? I shouldn't have to worry about not seeing him when this was over, we will think of something when we get there. All I knew right now was that I really liked him and I wanted to be with him. So I looked up at him and said, "I have been thinking about what you asked me at the beach." He looked at me smiling. "So, what do you think?" He asked. "I think, that we should be boyfriend and girlfriend. We obviously really like each other, so we will figure out a way to still be together when we have to leave." "I am so glad to hear that." He kissed the top of my head. I am so happy that we are actually official because I have liked him from the minute I first saw him.

It was around 9 when the movie finally ended and I was half asleep. "Em, it's late, I should probably get going." I shook my head and swung my legs into his lap so that he couldn't get up. "No please stay." I said. "I want to but my parents might be worried." "I don't want you to go. You can stay the night. Pleeaase?" "Ok let me just text my parents to let them know where I am." He slid out from underneath me and grabbed his phone off the kitchen table. He quickly texted his parents and slid his phone into his pocket. I sat up and reached my hands out. "Carry me." I asked playfully. He walked over and picked me up bridal style. I wrapped my arms around my neck and rested y head on his chest with my eyes closed. He carefully walked up the stairs so that he didn't drop me or wake up my parents. He laid me down on my bed and I disappeared under the covers. He walked to the other side of the med and climbed in with me. He put his arm around me and I lifted my head on his chest. He was so warm and comfortable. We fell asleep together in my bed. I never wanted it to end.
