One Kiss (Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 42

Niall's pov

"Put your body into it, Niall. " Harry instructed as I punched the bag. It'll be nice when we get a new one, this one has about had it. The bright red it used to be has faded to a soft pink, there's duck tape wrapped around places we've punched one too many times. I put all my power into my punches and the bag jumps around from the force. Everyone but Simon, Harry and I have gone home, so we decided to work on some punching. "Ok, That's good stop. " Harry came around on the opposite side of the punching bag and held it still. "You gotta work on your aim, you were starting to go a bit crazy on me. " He brought his arm around and tapped a spot on my side of the bag. "This is Logan's face, hit him. " I nodded and got in my position then through a punch at me target, apparently not hard enough. "Don't be a pussy, Niall. Punch him! " I hit again harder. "Come on, you're mad at this guy! " I punched again and again, harder and harder, grunting with each swing. "There you go! " I continued to punch for a few more minutes until Harry told me to stop. Damn, my arms feel like jelly. We sat on the bench on the other side of the room, removing our gloves and unwrapping our hands when Simon came out of his office.

"Ah, boys I'm glad you're still here. I have some good news. " He walked over to us.

"What's up? " I asked, stuffing my gloves in my bag.

"Jim, Logan's trainer called and said he caught a stomach virus and he's in no condition to fight. "

"Wimp " Harry mumbled with a smirk.

"So, the fight has been postponed to the 23rd. And that gives you more time to train. I'll inform the boys. " Simon walked back to his office and Harry turned to me.

"Let's celebrate! "

"What? "

"This deserves a celebration! " I scrunched my eyebrows.

"And, why exactly? " his body slouched down and he squinted his eyes at me.

"Because I'm hungry and I want a reason to go out. We can go get the girls and double date, it'll be fun. "

"Sure, ok. " I zipped up my bag. And we headed to the showers.

We walked through the door and saw Carlie sitting on the couch flipping through a magazine. She looked up and smiled.

"Hey, you eaten yet? " Harry asked, walking over to her.

"No, it's only... " She looked around for a clock and finally grabbed Harry's wrist and looked at his watch. "4:45. Why? " She stood up from the couch and Harry wrapped his arms around her waist.

"We are taking you two lovely ladies out to dinner. " He stooped down and pecked her nose I sat my bag down by the door.

"Really?! " She squealed.

"Yes, now go get ready. " Before she darted up the stairs I caught her attention.

"Hey, Jess's doctor's appointment was today wasn't it?  How'd it go? "

"Good, the doctor just told her to get plenty of rest and it'll go away on it's own "

"Oh, good. Where is she? "

"She's sleeping up in her room. Did you know she sleep walks? " I laughed.

"Oh yeah, she talks too. " She laughed and continued up the stairs.

"Hey man, I gotta run home and change, be sure the girls are ready by six. "

"Yeah, ok. Hey, where are we going anyway? "

"Hmm...Let's see.." He thought for a few seconds. "How does Dominik's sound? "

"Oh, that sounds great. They got good food. "
