Always Yours {n.h} COMPLETED

Chapter Twenty Three

"I'm not going to wake him up."  By this time, everyone had already gone to their rooms.  Niall was the only one left.  "Yes you are."  I tried to slip in between Louis and Liam, but they caught me.  "You can't make m-"  I was cut off when they picked me up off of the floor.  Louis had my arms, and Liam had my legs.  "Guys!  St-OOOP!!!"  They dropped me right onto Niall, and ran behind the couch.  "Umm, is there a reason you just jumped on top of me?"  I quickly stood up.  "Oh, no...I mean yes.  Louis and Liam did it."  He looked around.  "I don't see them..."  "Yeah, they're hiding behind the couch."  He nodded.  "Of course they are."  I looked back there, and they were gone.  "So, are you hungry?"  I tried not to make it obvious that I knew about his eating disorder.  "No."  "Ok, well you haven't eaten since yesterday.  Maybe you sh-"  "I'm not hungry, Ashley."  I started walking away.  Sorry for trying to help."  "Ashley?"  I turned and faced him.  "What?"  I started playing with my hands.  DANG IT!  I really need to stop that.  "Ummm...I ummm...I..."  "Are you just going to stand there and stutter?"  He shook his head.  "I'm sorry for being so mean to you lately.  And I'm sorry for being over protective, and not letting you hang out with Zayn."  "It's ok...I'm sorry for over reacting."  He smiled.  "So, do you still hate me?"  "Niall, I could never hate you."  I smiled as he hugged me.  He smelled like vanilla, which was my favorite scent ever. The phone started ringing, so we pulled apart. "I better go get that."  I took a few steps towards the phone in the kitchen when Niall stopped me.  "Ash?"  I quickly turned around, and he was much closer than I anticipated.  Before I could say another word, he was inching closer to me.  I did the same, as I closed my eyes.  Our lips connected, and I instantly felt sparks.  It wasn't like the other kisses, it was better.  He deepened the kiss, and wrapped his arms around my waist.  He ran his tongue along my bottom lip asking for entrance, and I instantly parted my lips.  "I'm so confused.  Are you together or not?"  Harry always has to be the one to kill a mood.  "Really, Harry?"  Niall was so ticked off.  Harry shrugged.  "Be ready in 30.  We're going swimming." He ran up the stairs, and tripped about half way.  Way to go, Hazza.  "I guess I should go get ready."  He nodded.  I walked upstairs, and into Niall's room.  I got my swim suit on, and went down to Louis' room.  "Where did you go?"  "We crawled into the kitchen.  But don't worry, we were spying."  He smirked.  "So, you saw?"  He nodded.  "You guys were really getting into it."  I blushed, and hit his arm.  "Well, are you coming swimming or not?"  "Yep, let's go before everyone else!"  We ran out the door, and got to the 6 foot chain-link fence where the pool was.  I reached for the handle, but it wouldn't budge. "It's locked."  He smiled.  "No problem, we will just have to climb over."  He started climbing up with ease, "Ummm, Lou...I don't think I can climb that."  "I'll help you."  He grabbed my arm, and pulled me up as I was climbing.  "Got it, thanks."  I landed on the other side, and slid my shoes off.  Louis jumped in the pool without hesitating,  but I on the other hand, had to feel the water first.  It wasn't as bad as usual, but I decided to sit on the side with my feet in.  I couldn't help but to think about that kiss.  It was...oh, nevermind.  I was knocked out of my trance when Louis came up next to me with an evil smirk planted on his face.  "Lou, don't you da-"  He pulled me into the water, so I decided to get a little payback.  "Lou!  I have my phone in my pocket!"  His eyes went wide.  "Crap, I'm so sorry!  I can buy you another one?"  "But, this had all of my pictures on it!"  I was fake crying, and he was totally buying it.  "I'm so, so sorry."  "Gotcha."  He looked really confused.  "I didn't really have my phone in my pocket.  Just kidding."  He smiled.  "That was very mean."  I laughed.  He swam over to me as I was trying to swim away, and dunked my head under.  I came up, and was about to scream at him when a voice interrupted me.  "Guys, why didn't you wait for us?"  Harry was whining.  We shrugged, and went back to swimming.  "CANNONBALL!"  Liam jumped in right beside me.  I splashed him in the face after he came up.  "Ha-ha."  He stuck his tongue out at me.  I made a big mistake, because that one splash got me dunked under by Kat.  "Don't flirt with my man!"  I laughed.  "Ok, no offense...but I would never go out with Liam."  She shrugged.  

A few splash fights later, we were all tired.  "I want to go back home."  Zayn whined.  "Me too!"  Georgia and Kat added.  "Fine, let's go."  We all dried off, and started walking back.  "Let's play truth or dare when we get back!"  Kat bounced up and down excitedly.  "Yeah!"  

"Truth or dare?"  "DARE!" Louis always picked dare...ALWAYS. "I dare you to...kiss one person in this room.  And it has to be a girl, and no...Harry does not count."  He looked at Sydney.  "Okie dokie."  Well, that was easy.  Louis stood up, and walked over to where she was sitting.  "Pucker up, buttercup."  Before she could say anything, he kissed her on the lips.  It lasted a little longer than necessary, but I'm guessing that they were going to be the next couple.  When they finally pulled apart, Sydney was blushing.  "I need a carrot."  We laughed at his carrot obsession, and resumed the game.  Sydney didn't talk much, but I would talk to her later about that.  "Ok, Ash.  Truth or dare?"  "Dare...no truth..."  "Can't change!  You get dare."  Oh crap.  What did I just do?  "I dare you to talk to Niall."  Ok, easy.  They didn't say how long I had to talk to him.  Niall was upstairs, so I went to his room followed by everyone else.  "Hey, Ni-ALLLL!"  The boys pushed me into the room, and closd the door.  "Guys, open the door!  This isn't funny!"  No response.  I tried beating on the door a few times, but nothing happened.  I also turned the door knob, but the door wouldn't open.  "Well, this is just great."  I turned to look at Niall, who had a smirk planted across his face.  "What?"  He shrugged. "Whaaat?"  "I just think it's funny how you didn't see it coming."  I sighed, sitting up against the door.  My phone started ringing, so I pulled it out.  "I hear no talking."  "Let me out, Lou."  He laughed.  "Nope, you have to make up first."  "I don't think it's going to happen."  Niall joined in my conversation.  "Why did I just get a text from Louis telling me to kiss you?"  "LOU!"  He laughed.  "He didn't say no!"  I groaned, and hung up.  Louis was absolutely no help.  "I can't believe this.  I'm going to kill all of them."  Niall was on his laptop, completely ignoring me.  "Do you want to do a livestream with me?"  "Sure, don't have anything better to do."  He opened up a new window, and clicked on the video button.  "Hello everyone.  How are you doing?"  I waved, and remained quiet.  "We're going to answer some questions...starting with katieluvs1d.  She asked 'Niall, are you single?'."  He looked at me.  "It's complicated."  Was he really talking about me?  "I want to pick the next question."  I scrolled through most of them, but they were all relationship related.  "Ok, NiallHoranIsABeast asked 'how long have you been dating.  Just to clear things up, we're not dating."  Niall scrolled through some more.  "CarlyTommo1d wants to know, 'Can you kiss Ashley?!'  Sorry, but she might kill me."  "He obviously really wants to kiss me, but sorry hun."  I said jokingly.  He said something under his breath that sounded a lot like "More than you know."  but I ignored it.  "Heres one from Louis_Tomlinson, who is currently sitting downstairs.  It says, 'Come on, guys!  We don't have all day.'  For those of you who don't know, Ashley and I were in a bit of an...argument.  The boys locked us in here together until we 'make up', but we already have.  See?"  He side-hugged me, and I hugged back.  "Come let us out now."  I demanded.  A few minutes later, the door opened.  "HALLELUJAH!"  I ran out the door, and back down to my friends.

OMG.  I MET THEM.  I ACTUALLY MET THEM.  I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I WAS ACTUALLY BREATHING THE SAME AIR AS THE BOYS.  Ok, so this is what happened.  I walked the room that they were in, and they were sitting there looking gorgeous as always.  It was Liam, Louis, Harry, Zayn, then Niall...so when we walked in, Liam looked at me and said "Hi, babe."  I just said hi because I could barely breathe.  I handed him his note, and he said "Daddy direction!  Very funny!"  He was talking about what I had written on the envelope.  Louis was next.  I handed him his note, and he just said "Thanks!"  Then Harry.  I handed him his note, and he started fist pumping and said "Hazza!"  Cause that's what I wrote on his envelope.  Next was Zayn.  He just did the same as Louis, because he had cd's being shoved in his face.  Next.  Was.  Niall.  I made him a bracelet that was Orange, white, and green and wrote him a note.  I gave him the note, and then said "I made you a bracelet too!"  He smiled and said, "Wow, that's really cool!  Thanks!"  I smiled at him but was about to pee myself, so I moved on.  There's my story!  AHHHHH I started crying when we left...:)  Such a fangirl...
