The New Foster (Niall Horan)

Chapter 13

~the next day~

I woke up to a sleeping Iris on the floor next to my bed. I decide against waking her up and just rush to the bathroom to take a shower.

After my shower, I go downstairs and make myself some waffles. I'm planning on going out to find Niall again. There's just something that bothers me, it's like he was already a big part of our family. Weird.

The door opens in the living room and I hear Kristen scream, "Niall honey! where were you?"

...what?

I run to the living room and can't believe he's here. He's actually here. WHAT THE HECK!? Anger boils inside along with relief. How could he get me all worked up for nothing? Maybe I should of followed his letter. But, maybe he could of put the note IN A MORE OBVIOUS PLACE! Ugh.

I don't even want to talk to him right now. I just turn on my heel like it doesn't even matter, and proceed with my waffles. It's not long until I start crying. And for the most ridiculous thing! How can I be crying about how much I missed him...and he's here like he never left. I'm just so stressed right now.

"Savannah! I missed you so much!" I turn to see a smiling Niall at the doorframe with his arms open.

"Niall!!" I run and hug him." M'kay, maybe I can't stay mad. I'm a failure
. "Don't ever leave again."

"I won't... I promise."

"SAVANNAH!" I flinch out I my daydream. "You okay? You were staring at the empty chair across from you for like five minutes." Abi laughs.

"Ya, I'm fine. Just in deep thought"

"Oooff"

"Stuff."

"Oh really?"she asks sarcastically.

"Mmhm" I walk out of the kitchen and grab the same things I brought yesterday before walking out to find Niall.

But this time, I can use the van. Not even five minutes of driving I hear my phone ring.

'Harry' is printed across the screen. I answer and balance the phone between my shoulder and ear.

"Hello?"

"Hey! he says, " I was wondering if you were busy?"

"Well, Im looking for Niall right now, he kinda ran away."

"He did? I can come help look with you"

"You'd do that?" He'd do that?

"Sure why not?"

"Thanks so much! Uh, can I meet you at the Starbucks next to Paul's? I'm like eight minutes away"

"Sure, I'm like five minutes away."

"M'kay. Byee!"

"Bye, love"

/////////////////////////

I ended up getting at Starbucks in ten minutes. As I park my car in front of the store, I spot Harry who's gathering his stuff and hurrying to the van.

"Hey love!"

"Hey!"

He hands me some hot chocolate and puts two others into the cup holders. It doesn't take me long to figure out what he did.

"You didn't have to get Niall one"

"It's cold outside"

I shrug and pull out of the parking lot.

"So tell me about this Niall guy." he says.

"Well, he's twenty. He's new to our foster house. He can sing."

"No no no no, I mean like what does he look like? Cause ya know, I kinda need to know what he looks like to find him"

"Ooh. He has brownish blonde hair, blue eyes, kinda pale."

"This might take awhile if you don't specify"

"His body looks like this" I unlock my phone and go to the picture of him by the manikin. "from the back"

"Which ones him?" Harry jokes.

It's been like forty-five minutes and- "There! Is that him?!" Harry screams and points out his window to a figure sitting by the window of a bar.
