We'll Be All Right (Narry)

NIALL'S POV

"Can we go out somewhere?" Harry signed, asking me.

"Sure, where do you want to go?" I signed back.

"An animal shelter." Harry shifted more towards me as a group of people came toward him; almost knocking himself into me.

"Alright, let's go to my house since my mum has a car I can drive and I'll take you." We climbed onto the bus and sat in a seat next to each other. "We can work on the assignments when we get to my house and wait for her to get home, I'll take you out to eat as well."

"That sounds good to me."

The rest of the way there we didn't sign anything else, Harry kept looking at me to make sure I'm not saying anything then his head turned back to the window.

The bus pulled up to my house; and I tugged at Harry's arm to let him know, then we got up and went inside. "It's really cozy."

"I know it's a bit small but it's just me and my mum and dad, plus we don't have any animals." I sat down on the couch; he sat next to me.

"You should adopt one."

"I would but I don't think my mum wants a pet." He nodded and pulled out our assignments, there were very few since we were able to get some done in class and at lunch.

I helped him with them though, again a bit stumped since I didn't understand some things, but I tried.

"Okay well let's get the homework from math done now." I signed; he nodded and we started working on it together; till we got in a small fight over what one answer was and he took my pencil from me, so I started grabbing it from him; making him giggle, I actually forgot that he isn't mute, his laugh is so adorable and I almost started to cry.

He accidentally laid down while pulling his arm away from me, I fell on top of him while trying to grab it.

Both of our cheeks went red and grew hot with fire as we stared at each other; then I did something insane, I leaned in and placed my lips on his.

It was just a quick peck, as I quickly got off him and scooted over, I've never thought about being gay. I mean I've had two girlfriends, but Harry, it's just something about him. I guess I'm bisexual, that's the word right? Or maybe I'm pan?

It doesn't matter to me, I've never been a huge fan of labels anyway.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We got into my mums car after I introduced Harry to her; I started driving towards a local shelter. I turned on music, I mean I know he can't hear it but it's not like that matters, I can play whatever I want.

We got out once I pulled up and went inside; I asked if we could look at some animals and the woman agreed and I pulled Harry with me into the room. Rows of dogs and cats were filled in front of us in small cages. I looked at Harry who was tearing up and going to pet all the animals.

I find this so interesting of him, since animals can't talk anyways, he must have a bigger connection with them then he does with any other human, besides his mum obviously.

Harry tugged me towards a cat, "This one keeps looking at you, I think he likes you like I do."

The cat was black, and it was also obviously blind, but it's not like I was gonna lay that on Harry. I opened the cage and pet the little guy; "You should take him with you."

"Hey there little guy." I spoke to the cat, Harry looked at me weirdly, I just looked at him, "I'm just speaking to the cat don't mind me."

He chuckled again, making me chuckle as well. "It's okay. Are you going to take him."

"Harry, I don't think my mum would want me too." I looked at him.

"But Niall, he looks so sad, he needs an owner." Harry picked the cat up and held him against his chest. "If you don't take him then I'm going to stop being your friend."

"What a threat, I so don't want that to happen." I joked. I don't want to lose him ever.

He playfully hit me, "I'll cry."

"Alright, I'll adopt him." I smiled when I saw Harry's eyes instantly light up as he smiled widely, we went back to looking at other animals, then the lady came and asked if we were adopting, I just said yes and told her which cat; she just gave me information and a few papers. And then she took him to get him in a portable kennel.

We left with the cat and I sat him in the back; climbing into the driver's seat as Harry got in shotgun. "I can't believe you talked me into adopting a cat."

"Well I did so believe it buddy, what are you calling him?" I almost laughed when Harry signed buddy.

"Noot." I was being serious.

"Like that show with the penguin? I'm not sure how to sign it."

"Just spell it out, pingu." I chuckled.

"Yeah you're right. Pingu, that show, anyway Noot is adorable and I'm going to help you raise him." Harry declared.

One day it's gonna be an actual child.
