*Still Niall’s P.O.V*
I grabbed Gabby by her waist and we walked into the movie theater.
“Hi, we have a private screening.”
“Name, sir?”
“Niall Horan.”
“Of course, right this way.”
Harry, Emily, Gabby and I were escorted to a small theater in the back. Harry and Emily were whispering and I was [I’ll admit it] eavesdropping.
“Harry, where are we going?”
“Shh, Niall and I planned something special for you two.”
“Harry Styles! You’re such a charmer!”
“Emily Cortez! Only for you!”
She giggled and kissed his cheek. He blushed and pecked her lips. My face burned. Why am I feeling like this?
“Niall, are you okay?”
I looked down at Gabby who smiled up at me sweetly.
“Yeah. I’m just gonna go get some popcorn and drinks. I’ll be right back.”
I walked out and went to the concession counter. What’s going on with me?
*Gabby’s P.O.V*
Something’s going on with Niall. I can’t exactly put a finger on it, but he doesn’t seem like he is having a good time. I took my seat in the small theater and I waited for Niall to come back. Harry and Emily were on the opposite side of the theater, talking and giggling.
“Emily!”
“Harry!”
“Can I ask you something?”
“Sure hun, what’s up?”
“How do you tell someone you like them?”
“Just come out and say it. Like this! Harry, I like you so so so much!”
They giggled at the corny conversation and he pecked her cheek. Niall came back, four popcorns and four drinks in his hand. He handed a popcorn and drink to Harry then to Emily, but something was written on his face. I couldn’t read his expression.
“Thanks Niall!”
“No problem love.” He smiled a warm smile and then came to sit down next to me. He likes Emily. It really didn’t come off as a surprise, everyone is attracted to her.
“Gabby, you okay?”
“Yeah, let’s just … watch the movie.”
I felt my heart throb with a quick flash of pain. I knew he didn’t like me, he was just trying to be nice. The movie finally started, Valentine’s Day. I saw this movie once before, with Emily, but I wasn’t paying attention this time. My mind was focused on Niall. What did he think of me?
*Back to Niall’s P.O.V*
Gabby kept her distance from me throughout the entire movie. She didn’t look at me, didn’t say a word, didn’t hold my hand, didn’t do anything. She stared at the movie screen and I stared at her. Finally, a movement came from the beautiful statue.
She looked down at her hands and bit her lip. I brushed her cheek and felt her flinch under me. She looked up at me and her eyes looked … watery?
“Gabby, are you okay? Is something wrong?”
“Niall, I really like you. I just want to know … do you like me?”
I felt the heat rush to me cheeks.
