Chapter 24

"Oh and you know what actually? I think I love you. No- I think I'm in love with you."

"W-What." I stuttered. My breath was caught in my throat. I wanted to scream on the top of my lungs.

"I-I-"

I love you, I love you, I love you!

She shook her head slowly. "Please just-"

I put my left arm on her back and my right under her legs and swiftly pulled her towards me.

"What'r you-"

I leaned in and pressed my lips to hers. And I felt it. The same things I felt last time, in the car by the ice cream shop. the same thing I've been craving for weeks and weeks.

The feeling of my stomach dropping to my feet. The feeling that my legs could give out at any moment. The feeling in my heart, and mind, that I can't explain. but it was magical.

I pushed on her lips with my own making her lay back into the bed. her fingers made their way up to my hair and tugged making me moan on her mouth. She smiled in the kiss and I did the same which ruined it really. She giggled and I slowly pulled away leaving 3 last pecks on her mouth.

"Shutting you up."

Maura slid the spatula under the last piece of sausage that she had in the fryer and flipped it out onto the paper towel covered plate that sat on the cupboard. She sighed in happiness. She usually will have a bagel and a cup of tea for breakfast, but now that her youngest is back home for a while, she's going all out, for every meal, and on everyday.

Chris walked into the kitchen and smiled at his wife.

(A/N; That's his name right? Nialls Step dad? Idk sorry.)

"G'dmornin'" He said kissing her cheek. "Smells good."

She nodded. "Thanks, hopefully Niall thinks so." She shrugged.

"Of course he will. There nothing better than your own mums cooking." He smiled.

"Off to work?" She asked.

He nodded. "I'll see you later."

She sat down the cooking utensil and wondered why her son hasn't come down yet. She looked at the clock and it read 10:34. She undid her apron and made her way up the stairs and down the long hallway to Niall's bedroom.

She slowly opened the door to his room and walked over to his bed making sure not to wake her son with the sound of her shoes scraping against the wooden floor. When she reached the rug close to his bed se sighed softly in relief. She was about to shake his shoulder when she realized- He wasn't alone.

She blinked her eyes a few times to make sure what she saw was true.

Of course if Niall was still a teen she would be furious that he had brought somebody to stay over without her knowing. But seeing how close they were- like two pieces of a broken heart mending together.

And that's truly what she thought it was.

She smiled and took out her phone and went to her messages pressing on the add a photo option. She snapped a quick picture and typed out a message.

To June Fisher;

Looks like we were right eh?
