-Kendall's POV-

"Niall?" I say. I'm in shock. I I never thought that Niall would want to be tutored.

"Haha yeah it's me," Niall says, "Would you like to come in?"

"Sure," I say. I walk in and he leads me past a living room and kitchen to a back room, similar to the living room, accept with a nice sized desk in the corner.

"This is my hangout room. I use it to watch tv, movies, play video games, that kind of stuff." He says, almost reading my mind. "Let's get started!'

After I was done tutoring Niall, we say for a while, just talking. I thought that Niall was going to be more of a douche with his ego out of the roof, but he's the complete opposite. He's sweet, kind, caring, and very funny. I actually enjoy his company, but I don't have a crush on him...

Ok maybe that last statement was a lie.

"Let's play 20 questions!" He says out of the blue. I nod my head and smile before moving from the desk onto the floor.

"You joining me or what?" I ask. He quickly nods and moves to the floor next to me.

"You go first," he says. I stop and think, scratching my head dramatically.

"Whats your favorite color?" I ask. He sighs then laughs a little.

"That was the most boring and cliche question you could ask me," he says, "But it's green. Or maybe blue. Either one."

I smile at him and nod my head for him to go.

"What is your favorite music genre?" He asks, "See, I'm more creative than you!" He says with a laugh.

I pout at him, "Hey! I was just warming up ok! And I like a lot of music. My music taste kinda runs from pop to alternative to punk rock. So one of those."

"Interesting," he says, "Your turn!"

"Have you found your soulmate yet?" I ask because I'm dying to know. Part of me hopes that he has, so I know not to get too attached, but part of me wants him to still be free because maybe he's my soulmate.

"No I haven't," he says with a slight frown, "I'm hoping to find her when the time is right."

I smile at him, "I understand what you mean. I haven't found mine either." He looks relieved when I say this. I really don't understand why.

We keep playing 20 questions for hours and eventually it's past 7 pm.

"Oh shit I gotta get home!" I say. My mom usually wants me home for dinner. I'll just lie and say the tutoring went way over time.

"I'll drive you home." Niall says. I nod and gather my things and head to his car. It looks pretty nice. He walks over and opens the door for me. I smile and get in. He closes the door and walks to his side and starts the car. He pulls out of the driveway and I tell him how to get to my house.

Niall dropped me off at my house and I immediately went inside and apologized to my mother. She understood that studying can run over. I tell her I'm not hungry and go up to my room. I call Ava as soon as I get up there. She answers after the first couple of rings.

"How did it go?!" She squeals, "Did you guys kiss? Ew did you guys make babies?!"

"Ava, calm down." I sigh, "No, we didn't kiss or 'make babies'. I just tutored him and then we played 20 questions. I learned some stuff about him. I just lost track of time."

"Sure." I can practically hear the smirk, "Well I have to go now, have fun texting your study buddy!"

"Ok, bye Ava!" I say. Sometimes that girl jumps to some serious conclusions.

I throw my phone down on my bed and go over to my dresser and get a t-shirt and some shorts out to sleep in. I strip down to my underwear and change into my pj's. I get my laptop from my desk and plop down on my bed. I check my social medias and stay on tumblr for a while. I feel something vibrate under my butt and I jump and almost fall out of my bed. I check under my covers and realize I left my phone there. I pick it up and see I have a text from Niall. It reads:

"I think you should close your curtains next time you change. I don't want anyone seeing you like that."

What. What? What?!

I look over to my window and see that my curtains are open. I walk over to it and see Niall's car driving away. Shit. He didn't leave. So he saw me change.

Hey, at least I didn't get naked.

I decide not to text him back. I log into my netflix account and watch random movies until I fall asleep.

A/N

Hey guys. I haven't updated in like forever. Sorry about that. It's summer now so I'm trying to update as much as I can. I also have lots of camps I'm going to, so if I disappear for like a week you know why.

Anywhore. So I'm trying to get back into this story. If I haven't updated in a while, just comment the most random thing you can think of to get my attention.

Have a nice life(:
