The next morning I wake up at 12pm again.

I throw on a pair of shorts on along with a pink muscle tank top that says 'pink' in big sparkly black letters, I stuff my feet into my grey vans with the shoe laces tucked in.

I jump out my window, to the tree and down onto the ground to avoid running into Noah and having to have a conversation with him, because the only person I want to talk to is Niall.

I walk along the white picket fence until I'm in front of him. He's kicking the soccer ball back and forth with Elena when he notices me standing here. He runs over to me jumps over the fence that really he just lifted a leg over because it's not very tall, he wraps me up in his arms and we hold each other tight.

"Please don't push me away." He says into my ear.

"I don't want to bring you into my messed up world Niall." I cry.

"Well to bad. I'm not going anywhere." He says.

"Niall I can't bring yo-" I start but he cuts me off.

"Push all you want but I'm gonna push back ten times harder." He says making me smile as he pulls back and wipes a few tears that's escaped my eyes.

I get on my tip toes and kiss him softly but long.

"Sorry to interrupt your guys moment but uh, Hailey I was wondering if maybe you would help me pick out an outfit for my date tonight." Elena says bouncing the ball up and down on her knee.

"Me?" I ask, my arms are still around Niall's neck and his hands are gently rested on my mid back.

"You don't need to be on a date." Niall says clearly being a protective big brother.

"Get over it Niall," she laughs, "so will you?" she asks redirecting her attention on me.

"Yeah sure." I say and she walks around the fence dragging me up to the house and into her room.

Niall stands in the door frame smiling at me while Elena and I sort through her clothes for the perfect outfit.

"Where did you guys say your going?" I ask.

"He said he is setting up a picnic at the park." She says smiling.

"Cute." I smile flipping threw clothes.

"Here." I say laying out a short leave white crop top that has a yin yang symbol on the front, along with Aztec stripped leggings and black flats.

"Oh my gosh! so cute! your a miracle working thank you!" she cheers hugging me.

"No problem." I smile.

"What jacket should I wear?" she asks.

"Don't wear a jacket, that way when it gets cold he offers you his jacket."

"That really works?" she asks her mouth dropping.

"Every time."

"And what if he tries to like you know .. kiss me. " She says as we sit on the bed, I nearly forget Niall is still here until he lets out a loud sigh after she says this.

"Then dump him." Niall says.

"I wasn't asking you." She says rolling her eyes.

"I'm serious. If he has the nerve to kiss you on the first date who knows what he'll do on the next date." Niall tells her.

"You kissed me on our first date." I remind him.

"Yeah but that's different. I'm not some horny fourteen year old boy."
