The Irish Jerk N.H.

But I'm not done yet, falling for your fools gold.

It was about three weeks after the pub incident. Chelsea is back at the Horan's for her daily duty of babysitting Theo, although Denise is home too. She is sitting on the ground playing monsters with Theo when a familiar Irish accent booms in her ears. "Where do ya want these groceries, Denise?" Niall yells from the front door. Theo stands up and runs to Niall, so much excitement on his face. "Niall!!!" He yells. Chelsea begins picking up Theo's toys and continues to look at Niall. Although she is trying not to make eye contact, she can't keep her eyes off him. Denise watches Chelsea's face, in complete and utter disbelief, she turns back to Niall slowly, "just bring them in here and give them to me" she smiles. "Uh hi," Niall says. Not realizing Niall is speaking to her, Chelsea keeps staring. Chelsea realizes he's staring at her and she looks around looking for Greg, "wait hi me? Like me?" she turns her head back to him. Niall chuckles,"yeah you, what are YOU doing here with my nephew?" Niall cocked his eyebrows. Chelsea looks at him and snickers, "what is your problem?" Before Niall could answer, she walks away and goes into the kitchen to help Denise. Theo, whom Niall is holding, points after her and says, "Chelsea is mad uh oh uncle Niall!" he shakes his head. Niall quickly corrects the young woman, "I don't have a problem! I am just asking a question!" Theo taps Niall on the shoulder, "Uh Uncle Niall, please don't get Chelsea to mad, she was gonna take me for ice cream." 

Chelsea comes back in the room with Theo's coat. "Hey Theo, you ready to go?" She looks at him with so much hope in her eyes. She then looks at Niall, "And just because you are dying to know, I am babysitting him." Niall stands there staring at the woman with his arms folded. When a little voice says, "Uncle Niall?" Theo says while Chelsea is zipping up his coat. "Yes, Theo?" Niall says with a smile. "Would ice cream make you feel better?" Niall responses rather fast, "Yes, but you go and enjoy your ice cream. You and I will have to have a Lad's day, and I will take you to the big candy store, and we can get you a big dessert at the place you like." Chelsea looks at the two men and smiles a little, "you can come with us, I think Theo misses you." She grabs onto Niall's hand to drag him outside. Theo runs after Chelsea and Niall, "Get in the car Uncle" he yells, smiling.  Chelsea puts Theo in the car and looks at the adorable little boy, "look at your little sunglasses," she smiles. She closes his door and gets in. Theo answers with confidence, "Uncle Niall got them for me so I can look sharp like him." Niall and Chelsea laugh.

At the ice cream stand, Chelsea gets Theo out. Theo grabs onto Niall's hand, "Uncle Niall, can I have a piggyback ride?" Niall looks at Chelsea and then to the little boy, "sure, but you don't want Chelsea to give you one?" The little lad shook his head, "no I want you too." They walk inside the ice cream stand, and Chelsea askes the little boy what he wants and then asks Niall what he wants while biting her lip. Niall is driven wild by this; he moves his legs under the table.  Niall continues to try and look at the menu to distract himself from what he just saw. "Uncle Niall, what are you getting?" The little Irish voice said. Niall looked at him rather confused, "I don't know, I was thinking chocolate." Theo answers back, "I am gonna get strawberry, that's my favorite!" Chelsea smiles at the connect the two have and declines when the waitress asks if she wants anything. Chelsea decides to try and talk to Niall, "do you like being alone on tour?" Niall responses with a cocky tone, "Well I am not alone, I have me band that travels with myself, so they keep me company. But yeah, it's way different than traveling in One Direction." Theo asks if he can go outside and play on the playground, of course, Chelsea confirms, he always does. 

Chelsea then asks Niall if she could talk to him alone. "Okay, what's up?" Niall says taking a bite out of his ice cream. "What is your problem with me?" Chelsea rolls her eyes. "What do you mean? You're the one with the problem." Niall says while pointing his spoon at Chelsea's face. "You're going to have an issue with that spoon shoved so far up your ass; you will be able to eat with it tomorrow." She says walking outside to gather Theo. This pisses Niall off, "WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU?" Niall screams at her. Chelsea picks Theo up and puts him back into the car. Niall thought, 'I should've never come to spend time with this girl. It was so not worth it." Chelsea looks at Niall, "you coming?", she gets in the car. "Yeah, I can't wait to go home." Niall spat back rolling his eyes at her. Theo looks at Niall with his window down, "you need a nap" Chelsea chuckled while getting in the car. Niall points at Chelsea, "Hey! I am not the only one!", Which only causes Theo to giggle. Chelsea shoots him back a glare. Niall says goodbye to Denise and Theo, and without one word to Chelsea, he drives away.
