"Oh...Sorry, I guess I kind of spoke my thoughts" again.
"It's okay, love"
"When did you wake up?" I ask him trying to change the embarrassing topic.
"Well, I don't usually wake up early. But, I just woke up like ten minutes before you were talking and.."
And we're back to the embarrassing topic.
"Oh"
"Yeah, I was trying to look for you."
"Why?" I ask curiously. Does he have feelings for me? Did he want to tell me something that he wouldn't be able to if Niall was around?
"I, uh, needed some directions to Dublin from here."
"Why?"
"I met this one girl..."
"Oh!" I try to sound excited, "why can't you use your GPS? I mean, I don't want to sound mean, just curious."
"It's not updated at all..."
"You're phone?"
He opens his mouth like he's about to say something, but closes it. "Didn't think of that." he laughs before walking out.
"YOURE WELCOME!" I scream so he can hear from downstairs.
Well now that that's over, I'm feeling a little too active to sit here and cry. It's not like me crying will fix anything. and besides, tomorrow's Valentines Day. Wait, am I supposed to get Niall a gift? Did he get me a gift? Are we even dating? I hope not. I mean, I do want to date him, but I feel like we're just moving too fast.
I know you probably think I'm crazy because I don't want to date the Niall Horan, and I do too. But it's not really the case. I do want to go out with him. Just not yet. Even if this is probably a once in a lifetime experience, I don't want to rush. I'm still young, and have huge plans she's of me. I don't need the distraction of a boyfriend.
Brian told me about Jason." I look to see Niall at my door, just like Liam was.
"Mmhm"
"I'm sorry, Lex" he sits on the edge of my bed.
"It's okay, I'll be fine after a while."
"You don't have to be like this around me, you know that right?"
"Be like what?"
"You don't have to hold back the tears around me. I'll be here for you no matter what."
I sit up before answering. "I wasn't planning on crying again, but that's good to know I guess." What was I supposed to say?
He holds my left hand in his right, and looks at me. Straight into my eyes. His eyes almost make me forget that my dad passed.
"Lex?" he asks nervously.
"Yeah?"
"I was wondering if you want to go on a date with me. Like an actual date, not a cheesy picnic. An actual date. I-if you feel good enough."
"Of course I'll go on a date with you." my mouth moves faster than my brain. "Where? And When?"
"I kinda wanted to see the new movie 'Endless Love'? And tomorrow since it comes out tomorrow."
"Ya! I've been wanting to see that movie since the commercials came out!"
"Well then it's a date."
He sits by me and I scoot over to give him space.
The next thing I know, I'm drifting off while resting my head on Niall's chest as he sings the lyrics to The Only Exception by Paramore.
