“Niall! Niall! Wake up!” I was shaking him. The digital clock next to the bed said 10:36. “Niall! Wake up!” I shook him one last time, he bolted up. “What, what’s happening? Are you okay?” Niall asked in a panic, “Yes! Niall I’m perfect, I slept the whole night, without the nightmare!” He beamed up at me and pulled me into a tight hug. I smiled as he buried his head into my neck and whispered, “That’s because I’m here to protect you.” He climbed up, “Let’s go see the lads!” I smiled and followed him, the boys were in the kitchen eating eggs and toast. “Morning sleeping beauty!” Liam called and I smiled. “How was your sleep love?” Zayn asked me. I looked at Niall and smiled, “Perfect, no nightmare, the first time in six months.” I whispered “Awww! I’m so proud of you!” Louis came over and gave me a tight hug and I blushed. I turned to Louis’s mom, who was smiling at me, “May I take a shower while the boys eat?” I asked. “Oh, honey of course! You don’t need to ask!” I smiled and thanked her and went off to take my shower.

I applied the last touches of make up to match my outfit, bright pink shorts an off the shoulder white top, pulled together with the shoes Niall got me. I didn’t forget the glasses, as I’d promised Niall. I brought my bag out into the kitchen where the boys still were, dressed and ready for the day. “Like my shoes?” I asked, the boys looked down and back up, confused, I smiled. “Niall surprised me with them last night.” Zayn explained, “Yesterday at the mall, Niall didn’t lose his phone, he stayed to buy them for her. He came into the car through the truck to hide them go with the groceries she wouldn’t see them.” The boys nodded and patted Niall’s shoulder. “So, boys your pots are done, do you want to glaze them?” The boys cheered and we walked back to my house, Snuggles happily greeting us. We all went up into my study, I pointed to the kiln room, “Find your pot in the kiln, it may be too hot to touch and if it is, use the oven mitts on the side, and go over to the sink and run some water over it.” I explained. Suddenly something caught my eye, mine and Niall’s vase was filled with the tiger lilies I love. I walked over and under the vase was a note, I picked it up and read it.

Hello Beautiful! You’re in the shower as I write this, I hope you put on your glasses after, you said you would. Now after you read this please come down to the garden, I’d like to talk to you. (:

See you soon beautiful!

Xx Niall

I picked up one of the flowers and turned around, Niall was standing in the garden looking at me, and I smelt the flower and waved. I walked to the door and called to the boys,  “Be right back!” I don’t think they heard, I ran down the steps and walked into the garden.

“Hello gorgeous.” Niall greeted me and I started blushing. “What’s up love?” I asked his eyes sparkling in the sunlight. “I wanted to tell you something. Don’t say anything until I’m finished, is that okay? He smiled and I nodded. “Juliette, since the second I saw you, I thought you had something special, and I for sure know you do. We just met a few days ago and I know this is crazy, but I love you. Everything you do is perfect, and I just want to make you mine, not a secret. I want the boys and the fans to know too. The boys think very highly of you, and the fans will live you too. So Juliette, will you be my girlfriend?” I smiled “I feel the same way Niall James Horan. Yes, I will!” He picked me up and spun me around. He put me down and kissed me, the summer sunshine all around us. “I love you.” He whispered to me. “I love you too.” I whispered back.

We walked back into the house holding hands so the boys would notice. We got up to my study, Liam, Zayn and Louis saw our hands and smiled. But I could tell something was up, “Are you two…?” Zayn asked looking at us. “Yes!” We said at the same time causing us to giggle. “So, let’s start glazing those pots!” I turned to face the clay table. I was shocked at what I saw, “Our vase…” Niall whispered to me. A puddle of water lay on the ground the flowers scattered about. The vase was broken into 5 different pieces. “Oh no…” I said and I walked over to inspect the damage. After a few seconds of looking I saw I could fix it easily with some pottery glue, I picked up the pieces. “I can fix it with pottery glue. It’s not broken too bad.” I smiled at Niall. “So boys let’s glaze!” They cheered, but for the next few hours I wondered how a pot in the middle of the table could fall over like that.

I got my pot out of the kiln, just in time to see Juliette walk out the door holding a flower. “Be right back!” She called eagerness in her voice. She was gorgeous, she was funny, she was sweet. I turned to see a vase, filled with those same flowers. I walked over and read a note next to it.

Hello Beautiful! You’re in the shower as I write this, I hope you put on your glasses after, you said you would. Now after you read this please come down to the garden, I’d like to talk to you. (:

See you soon beautiful!

I immediately turned my head to the window to see Juliette and Niall, she nodded and said something, he picked her up and kissed her. Jealousy ran through my body I couldn’t control myself. I looked over at the vase. It was the colors of the Irish flag and it had their names on it and a verse.

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

I looked back out the window to see them walking back in, holding hands. I knocked the vase off the table and it shattered. I forgot the boys were still in here they all turned to me, looking at the vase on the floor. Juliette and Niall walked in, “Are you…?” Zayn asked. I heard the word I didn’t want to hear. “Yes!” they said at the same time, I focused on the painting in front of me not paying attention to them. “So let’s start glazing some pots!” Juliette said. “Our vase…” Niall whispered, I knew I made a mistake. “Oh no…” Juliette trailed off, obvious hurt in her voice, I turned around to see her looking at the pieces. She stood up with them in her hand, “I can fix this with pottery glue!” She smiled at Niall, good thing, or I never would have forgiven myself. “So boys, let’s glaze!” She cheered, I looked up, Liam, Louis and Zayn were staring at me. I needed to come clean.
