First Love

Chapter 21

ANNABELLE’S POINT OF VIEW

The hall filled with the flashes of thousands of cameras. I blinked feverishly before smiling. “What the hell is going on?” I hissed at Niall through my teeth.

“I thought maybe it should be official, so the fans don’t get angry with us for hiding it.” He mumbled, pulling me in for a kiss. I’d never been one to fight off a kiss, so I went with it.

“Thanks.” I whispered against his lips, smiling at him.

“No problem, Belle.” He said, pulling away and putting his arm around my waist. The paparazzi backed off a little, getting the pictures they needed. Niall pulled out his iPhone. He opened his camera app and snapped a picture of us, him kissing my cheek. “AWH! HOW CUTE!?!? Look at your face!” Niall joked, pointing at my scrunched up face. It was a pretty adorable picture. I took his phone and sent it to me. He started tapping away at his phone, and soon I was getting a text from Twitter.

“@NiallOfficial: AREN’T WE THE CUTEST THINGS?! @AnnaB91393” There was a picture attached to it. Presumably the one we just took. I laughed, before setting it as my profile picture, and my phone background.

“Yeah, Niall. You are the cutest thing.” I laughed, pinching his cheeks. He stuck his tongue out at me, laughing himself. He pulled me out on the dance floor. I immediately glared at him. “I don’t like dancing!” I complained when he put his arms around my waist.

“This is the easiest dancing there is. I think you can manage!” He joked, pulling me closer. I sighed, putting my head on his shoulder.

“You’re such a pain in the ass, you know that right?” I mumbled.

“Yeah, but I’m your pain in the ass!” We laughed, continuing to dance.

“Belle, are you tired?” Niall asked me. We’d been dancing for what seemed like forever, although it’d actually only been about two hours.

“Incredibly so. But I don’t want to leave until you’re ready babe.” I said, stifling a yawn.

“I’m ready. We can go home Belle. We’ve got an early morning tomorrow.” He said, smiling at me.

“YAY! Sleep sounds great.” I said, doing a little dance.

“You look real tired.” Niall said sarcastically. I playfully smacked him as we walked out to the car. When we got in I checked my twitter. Wow, I had a lot of followers already. That’s weird. I followed a few people back and then went to my mentions. Several tweets had a web link in them, so I clicked on it.

NIALL HORAN GOT HIS FIRST GIRLFRIEND SINCE BEING IN ONED

Niall set up a special evening with his girl, Annabelle Green, and invited several paparazzi to one venue. They were caught sharing an affectionate kiss at the door of the town hall in an undisclosed location. How long have they been dating? Let us know what you think!

There was a picture of Niall and I kissing. It was a really cute picture, and my first instinct was to save it to my phone. I did, then told Niall about it.

“LEMME SEE! IS IT A GOOD PICTURE?!” He yelled, acting a lot like a child.

“Not while you’re driving mister. Eyes on the road. Yes, the picture is good.” I said, smiling. I looked out the window. I didn’t know if I was happy about this, or scared. I already had several people calling me a whore, and they just found out two hours ago. I didn’t want to let it get to me, but I was tender. I got hurt easily. I knew I could get through this, I just knew it was going to be hard.

“What’re you thinking about?” Niall asked, glancing over at me momentarily. 

“Tonight.” I said vaguely.

“What about tonight?”

“How fantastic it was.” I mumbled, getting out of the car and running up to the house. I laughed when I heard Niall behind me. He grabbed me, and carried me to our room, setting me down on the bed.

“Please, do go on.” He said, stripping out of his shirt, and hiding in the closet to change his pants into sweats.

“I’m scared too.” I said, in all seriousness.

“Why’s that Belle?” He asked, coming out and wrapping his arms around my waist.

“There are a lot of mean people out there. That’s kind of scary.” I mumbled, looking up at him.

“I’ll protect you.” Niall promised. I smiled into his shoulder, knowing I could trust him.

“Thank you.” I mumbled before pulling away. “I’ve got to get out of this dress. I think I’m suffocating.” I said, laughing.

“I COULD HELP!” Niall said, already grabbing the zipper.

“I’m actually old enough to dress myself.” I said, playfully swatting his hand away.

“Nobody said anything about dressing.” He mumbled, pulling me closer. I smiled up at him.

“I did!” I laughed, kissing him before running into the bathroom and shutting the door. I grabbed my clothes off of the floor, and took a steadying breath. I know it was going to come up someday, I just didn’t think it would be that fast. Truthfully, I was scared to death of sex. I know that sounds stupid, but it’s the truth. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust Niall, I would love for my first to be with him. I was just scared I was going to do it wrong. I changed quickly, before washing my face and switching my contacts out for glasses. I took a few more deep breaths before walking out to the bedroom.

“ANNA!” I thought maybe you died in there!” Niall yelled, pulling me into his lap. “Sorry, about that. I got out of hand.” I sighed.

“No. It’s no big deal! I shouldn’t be such a baby.” I said, smiling.

“I like that you’re a baby. It makes you special.” He laughed, kissing my nose.

“I’m glad my lack of experience makes you happy.” I joked, pulling the covers over me. “COME HERE!” I yelled, pulling him down beside me.

“You’re amazing, Belle.” He whispered into my ear.

“Actually, you’re amazing.” I smiled, kissing him softly.

“I know. But you’re more amazing.” He said, smiling. I laughed, cuddling up next to him. I fell asleep, listening to Niall sing softly.
