I changed into my pyjamas and sat on my bed, browsing through twitter. There was a knock on my door and I just presumed it was my mum.
'come in' I called. To my surprise Niall walked slowly into my room. I place my laptop on my desk to make room for him to sit down. Instead he stood in front of me.
'Beth' he began. I avoided eye contact with him but nodded slowly. 'I don't want things to be awkward between us, I miss how we used to be' he began. Me and Niall had been very close as friends before now, to be honest I really missed that.
'me too' I muttered.
'the only way to save a friendship is by being honest' Niall decided. I nodded once, still unable to make eye contact with him. 'I will be completely honest with you if your completely honest with me' Niall compromised, sitting down next to me.
'okay' I mumbled
'I'll start with this' he began 'I really like you Beth, Harry would kill me if he knew I was in here but I couldn't just cut off our conversation from earlier that quickly' I thought about my reply.
'to be honest Niall, I really like you too.' I stated, chancing a look at his gorgeous eyes 'and yes Harry will be annoyed at us but it's not my fault your gorgeous' I giggled. He blushed and looked down at his hands.
'and it's not my fault your so beautiful' he concluded, pulling me into a hug. He softly kissed the top of my head. 'I should get back or Harry will get suspicious, you coming?' he asked
'ill be down in five' I smiled as Niall walked down the stairs. I pulled a jumper over my head and pulled my hair up in a messy bun before going downstairs. As I walked into the living room I saw Niall on the closest sofa so I went and sat next to him. He smiled at me warmly before focusing back on the film that was on. Paranormal activity. Harry knew I hated scary films! I grabbed a pillow and hid behind it. I subtly lent into Niall so no one would notice and he put his arm round me protectively. Liam looked between me and Niall a few times before smiling and looking back at the tv. I flinched as something made a loud noise in the film and Niall tightened his grip on my waist. I buried my head further into his shoulder. At the end of the film Harry got up to turn off the tv so me and Niall jumped apart. They argued over sleeping arrangements for a while before deciding Louis was sharing Harry's room, Liam and Niall got the spare room and Zayn got the sofa. I said goodnight to everyone before going into my room and climbing into bed. Someone knocked at my door.
'come in' I called expecting to see either my mum or Harry. Niall appeared in the doorway and made his way over to me, sitting down next to me.
'just needed to come and say goodnight' he smiled, pulling me into him.
'Night Nialler' I said sleepily.
'Goodnight beautiful, see you in the morning' he whispered before kissing my forehead and walking back to his room. I smiled as I rolled over and fell asleep.
I was woken the next morning by Harry shaking me.
'what?' I complained
'I need to talk to you before the others wake up' he explained. Uh oh...
'about what' I asked
'Niall' he stated. I hid my head in my duvet
'what about him?' I asked, acting as if I had no clue.
'I saw you last night, curled up against him' he said
'I was scared' I protested
'and it's a coincidence how Niall came into the living room right before you' Harry said, raising an eyebrow. I just shook my head. 'I don't mind if you like him, but please tell me'
