“Yeah!” They all cheered Snuggles was startled by the noise and his head jerked up. I giggled, Snuggles was just so cute. They boys were running to the door and down the stairs. I followed close behind, they all sat down at the table, and I handed out plates and cups. I gave each boy their designated cinnamon bun and they smiled happily, “Well isn’t that the cutest little thing!” Louis cooed and I laughed. “Look at this fruit and how perfect it’s sliced and arranged in this bowl!” Niall gushed. The others looked confused and I giggled. “Niall worked very hard on slicing this fruit for you!” I told the boys. “Ohhh I’m so proud of our little Nialler, using a sharp knife like a big boy!” Liam said, petting Niall’s hair. “Liam, stop it! We all know Niall is mine!” Zayn said stroking Niall’s arm. I couldn’t help but to laugh to myself. “If anything I say he’s Juliette’s!” Louis exclaimed, I started blushing. I glanced over at Niall, he was too, I caught sight of Harry, he had an irritated expression on his face. I didn’t want him to be upset so I walked over to him and ruffled his curls, “So how’s Hazza doing this morning?” I smiled. His mood seemed to improve instantly, “Lovely my dear, now that you’re here!” Harry said cheerfully. I started blushing again, I heard Louis “So, Juliette, about yesterday…” my face went pale and I thought “questions about my dream, already. I don’t know what to say…” Louis continued, “May I ask you why at about 10 am you were running without your trousers on…?” The boys laughed and I felt relieved, “Well Louis, I went to let Snuggles outside, and I had just gotten out of the shower, and Snuggles got out, so I couldn’t go in and put pants on, I had to chase him! I didn’t even realize that I didn’t have pants on until Zayn said something!” The boys started laughing, “It’s all fine my dear, you look good in black lace!” I blushed at Harry’s comment. “Harry, you would be the one to remember the color and style of the knickers I was wearing!” The boys laughed and agreed, “So what have you got planned today?” Liam asked. “Grocery shopping, mother left me money and such, and I used the last of what we had today. Then I think I might go to the mall.” I explained. “Can we go with you?” Zayn asked eagerly “If you want to! I would like the company, we can take my car!” The boys all cheered and agreed. After breakfast was finished the boys went back home I was in the kitchen and I heard a faint conversation. “Mate, can I stay here while you go change and such, you know Zayn will take a while!” Niall begged “Why do you need to stay Niall?” Liam questioned “Just in case something happens, like last night I want to know Juliette will be safe…” Niall trailed off and Liam chuckled “Sure mate, I understand, I’ll swing by with some new clothes. Be back soon.” I bet Niall was smiling. “Thanks Liam!” Niall cheered, I turned around to face the sink, and pretend I didn’t hear that conversation. Niall walked in and I turned around, “Can’t bear to part from me, hmmm?” I asked cheekily. He smiled, “No, I guess I can’t, but I want to talk, about last night.” Niall informed. My stomach dropped, I didn’t want to go back to that place, where I’m not safe, nightmares are common for me for about 6 months I get the same nightmare, and there is no way to stop it. “Niall, I want to tell you, I want to tell the boys. But not now, it’s too soon.” I told him, throat drying out. “It’s okay baby, I want to know, but I’ll wait. I want you to tell me when you’re ready.” Niall told me. I nodded, “I have a vase to glaze, would you like to help me?” I smiled and He nodded, grabbing me by the hand and bringing me to my study. “I know where I’m going Niall, I live here!” I giggled. We walk into the room and it’s filled with morning sunlight, we walk over to my clay table. “What colors? I don’t know what to do! Help me Niall!” I cooed pretending to faint. “How about an Irish flag, and we can put our names on the top!” Niall suggested. “Brilliant, I love it!” I pulled put all the glazes and brushed we needed and we began to paint. I watched him, eyes fixed on the pot, I smiled he was perfect. In everything he does, he finished the flag and I smiled, the top of the vase I glazed white and waited a few minutes so it dried before we put our names in black. When it was done it read…

Juliette and Niall, 6-10-12, on the side I wrote some lyrics,

Sunday morning, rain is falling

Steal some covers, share some skin

Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable

You twist to fit the mold that I am in

But things just get so crazy, living life gets hard to do

And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew

That someday it would lead me back to you

“That’s a beautiful song.” Niall whispers. I nod my head, “I agree, sing it with me…?” I whisper, my eyes staring into his. He smiles and nods and I grab my guitar and sit on the window seat Niall sits next to me, he looks at me and I smile, I start to play.

Sunday morning, rain is falling

Steal some covers, share some skin

Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable

You twist to fit the mold that I am in

But things just get so crazy, living life gets hard to do

And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew

That someday it would lead me back to you

That someday it would lead me back to you.          Niall picked up that line and continued into the chorus, which we sang together.

That may be all I need

In darkness, she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave

Niall sang the next verse by himself

Fingers trace your every outline

Paint a picture with my hands

Back and forth we sway like branches in a storm

Change the weather, still together when it ends

We sang the chorus together.

That may be all I need

In darkness, she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave

I sang the last verse alone

But things just get so crazy, living life gets hard to do

Sunday morning, rain is falling and I'm calling out to you

Singing, "Someday it'll bring me back to you."

Find a way to bring myself back home to you

We sang the chorus together

That may be all I need

In darkness, she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave.

We looked at each other, eyes connecting, we filled the gap between us, he pressed his lips against mine, shivers sent down my spine. His arms round my waist and mine ran through his hair, he pulled back a second, and looked at me. “Juliette, you are so beautiful. Please, don’t forget that." I smiled and put my hand in his and I stood up. “Let’s put this pot in the kiln.” I smiled before I kissed his cheek. I put the pot into the kiln, turned it on and closed it, “It should be done when we get home.” I looked out the window, the boys are coming back. Let’s go down stairs.”
