Im Only Human

Date Night

Mac's POV

I am such an idiot. I can't believe I actually let him come here. I should've known something like this would've happened. It's only eight o'clock and yet there has been so much drama.

"Really?" Jack says. "You're gonna make me leave?"

Niall takes a step towards him. "Yea."

Nat and Beth sat down on the couch and watched them like they were watching a movie at a theater. They would just sit there and watch.

To my surprise Jack doesn't offer to kick Niall's ass he turns to me and says,"I'll see you later." he winks and walks away.

Nat and Beth are sitting there laughing. Niall is fuming. He starts pacing and running his hands through his hair. He screams and punches the wall, leaving behind a hole.

"What the hell?" Beth stands up and says.

"Sorry." He says. "I- I need to go home." He grabs his car keys and turns to look at me. He looks angry. "Would you..." He sighs and looks down at the ground,"Would you like to go an a date tonight?"

I start to say no but am interrupted by Nat,"Yes! What time will you pick her up and what should she wear?" I glare at her.

"7:30 and something casual and comfortable." He says.

"Ok. She'll be ready then."

"Ok." he whispers. He turns to leave but turns back and looks at me with emotion so strong in his eyes.

When he finally leaves I turn to Nat and say,"Why did you do that? I don't wan to go in a date. Especially not with him. I just met him."

"Well Beth and I have dates tonight so if you don't go you'll be here all alone."

"You have dates? With who?" I look at them and they both have stupid grins on their faces. "It's with those British guys isn't it. Harry and Liam." They both nod. Great.

I go to my room to sleep. I think I'll just sleep the day away until my date. I think about what Nat will make me where tonight, as I doze off.

****************************

"Please trust me. I'm not him. You deserve better. You deserve to be loved."

Niall is holding me in his arms. We're lying on my bed and face is only an inch away from mine.

"Let me love you." He whispers. "Let me love you." His face comes closer. "Let me kiss you." He says it so quietly I almost don't here him. I nod slowly and he presses his lips against mine.

In my dream with Jack it was like I was on fire. With Niall it's so much different. I feel weightless. Like he's the only reason I'm still on this earth. He's my gravity.

He holds me tighter and I never want to wake up.

####################

"WAKE UP!" Nat yells. "WE HAVE TO GET READY FOR YOUR DATE!"

I climb out of bed and look at the clothes she has laid out for me. Oh, I get normal clothes this time. Dark jeans and a turquoise button down shirt with a gray lace under shirt and my gray converse.

She curls my hair into curls and tries to do my make up but I refuse. I hate make up.

I go to the living room and sit and wait for Niall.

Nat and Beth are getting ready for their dates. I really don't want to go on this date. Maybe I can tell him not to ask me again.

Just as I think this, there's a knock on the door. It's Niall. "Hey," he says. "You ready?"

"Yea. Let's go." I yell out to Nat and Beth that he's here and we're leaving.

"HAVE FUN!" They both yell back.

We pull up to a roller rink with the words "ROLLERSKATING. ARCADE. & MORE. "

"Rollerskating?" I ask. "I can't roller skate!"

"Guess i'll have to teach you then."

We walk in and get our skates. He shows me how to put them on but I still have trouble doing it, so he does it for me.

"Ready?" he asks. I nod my head and he take my hand and helps me to the rink.

He shows me how to move my feet and I mimic his movements. I let go of his hand to try to do it on my own and instantly fall.

He bends down and grabs my to pull me up. I look up at him and say,"Don't let me go."

"I won't. I promise."
