Spring Breakers! (A Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 42 Boomboxes

"No." I said. "That did not just happen. nothing can happen between us!" I said gesturing to the both of us.

"Why not? we had something a few months ago! why can't we just start where we left off?"

"Because it didn't work out!"

"We can make it work this time!"

"No Niall. The most we'll ever be is friends. Just friends." I said walking away. I was lying. I was lying to him and myself. I knew i wanted him back. Everyone knows i want him back! Ok maybe not everybody but my friends know that.

He didn't follow me. I walked home and when I got inside I texted Louis happy birthday. Everyone went out to a party but I didn't feel good so I stayed home with the dogs.

There was a golden retriever and a black lab. they were so cute together, like sisters.

I sneezed and the puppies cuddled with me on the couch.

Oh god, I might be coming down with a cold. No!

I was watching Ridiculousness in my room when I heard music playing from outside.

I looked out my window and saw him. hold ing a boom box over his head. I laughed a bit at how cheesy he looked.

I walked downstairs and opened the door to let go and see him. I unlocked the door so I could get back inside and walked out with my slippers and sweats on.

"It was you all along huh?" I asked.

He nodded. "I just didn't know how to tell you."

"So, how did you know I was going to be there? At the party."

"Ariana." he stated.

"She put you up to this?"

"No, I planned it. She just told me where you were going to be."

"And the clues?"

"I'm surprised you never figured it out."

"What about the karaoke bar?"

"How about we go inside and I'll tell you everything that happened." He said.

I put my hand on his chest stopping him. I got on my tiptoes and gave him a kiss on the lips.

"I missed you Niall James Horan."

We smiled at each other and went inside. He explained everything.

He told me how when we were dancing at the party he saw Marc with another girl so he paid the girl to get him away from me.

"And I got mad at you for that. I'm sorry."

"It's fine. I knew that once you understood everything, you'd be fine." he smiled.

It was sweet that he was thinking about me. He went through all that trouble, just so I wouldn't get hurt.

"I really appreciate all of this Niall."

"Hey, it's what friends do." he smiled.

"I know I said that all we'll ever be is friends, but, if you play your cards right, there might be something in the future." I kissed him on the cheek.

I sneezed and rested my head on his lap and closed my eyes.

"You're warm. We should get you to bed." he pointed out.

"I'll be fine!" I resisted.

"Christi, I don't want you sick on Christmas."

"Fine." I caved.
