Part 24: Bloody 'Football' with Niall

Alicia's POV

I snunk out of bed and creeped down stairs to start breakfast for everyone. I figured it's the least I could do. I grabbed the eggs , bacon, biscuits, grits, and anything else I could find. I started cooking the bacon when I hear footsteps behind me, it was Maura.

"Hello darling, what's this?"

"I decided to make breakfast for everyone, I hope you don't mind."

"Oh not at all!"

"Would you like to help me?"

"Of course! I love cooking!"

"You can scramble the eggs." I smiled at her and she smiled back before breaking the eggs into a bowl.

"I just wanted to say Alicia, i'm glad Niall has found you." All I could do was smile.

"I'm glad he found me too."

"Him bringing you here means a lot to him, and i'm glad you fit in so well. You could pass as me daughter."

"I know, I was telling Niall how much I love his family. Everyone is just so... nice."

"Well I appericate it love, it's nice to see you two together. You two really fit." Hearing this from his mother just made me all happy inside.

"He can be himself around you, and I feel like you are youself around him. Nothing makes me more happy than seeing his face light up when he see you or talks about you."

"I'm glad I can make him happy, I really am. I couldn't imagine being with anyone less... perfect."

"He said you were his soul mate ya know." I went speechless. Did she just say...

"What?" I croaked out.

"Yes, the first night he meet you he called me and his words were 'Mum, i've found me soul mate.' I couldn't believe the words coming out of his mouth." I just stood there speechless listening to her talk. A smiled escaped my lips and I looked down blushing. She tilted my chin back up and smiled.

"He is so lucky to have a pretty girl like you." I smiled somemore until bacon grease hit my arm making me jump.

"I'll let you finish cook, I'm going to wake Niall up." She said before leaving me alone with my thoughts.

'He said you were his soul mate ya know.' 'He is so lucky to have a pretty girl like you.' 'He's face lights up whenever he see you or talks about you.'

I couldn't help but smile! I finished the bacon and took the biscuits out of the oven. I set the pot of grits on the stove top with I started with the eggs.

"Do I smell bacon?" A voice said. I looked around but noone was there.

"Liam?"

"Yeah." Liam popped his head out from the couch.

"Yes, i'm making breakfast."

"Well it smells delicious."

"Thank you."

Then I heard some more footsteps, I turned to see Haley up and dressed cute instead of in her usual pjs. Must be because of Liam.

"Good morning lovely." Liam said to her.

"Good morning."

"Did you sleep alright?" Liam said. I smiled at the two of them.

"I did, how about you."

"Great." I looked over at them and he kissed her cheek. AWH!

"What you making Licia?" Haley asked.
