I Can't Love you More Than This- A Niall Horan love story

Chapter 14- You make this harder

I woke up the next morning very early. I looked next to me to find Niall laying in be...shirtless.

"Oh god... Please tell me we did not have sex" I thought to myself. I pulled back the covers to find myself fully clothed. "Thank God" I muttered. I climbed out of Niall's comfy bed and tiptoed across the padded rug and into the hallway,careful to shut the door behind me. I ran into the bathroom and did what I needed to do. I washed my hands and brushed my teeth before looking in the mirror. I looked at my horrid reflection, my hair was still in a bunch of little braids and the somewhat faded blue marker was on my forehead and cheeks. I scrubbed at the marker to make it go away but it was no use. I took the braids out to reveal my now curly brown locks. Sighing I unlocked the bathroom door and walked into the front area where Liam was sitting.

"Hi Jor-nice marker on your face! Anyway come here we need to talk" he said. I immediately became nervous, what if I couldn't stay with them? I swallowed my fears and sat next to Liam.

"Look I know that Niall likes you..a lot..and I know you feel the same way. It's just management doesn't want him dating anyone.I don't want either of you to have to go through the heartbreak of not being able to date once you fall hard. I don't want to tell Niall this because I don't know how he will react, so I'm telling you this. Don't let him get his hopes up but also don't break his heart, as you may know Niall has been through a lot and its hard for him. I know this effects you since you like him but I'm telling you this for your own good." Liam sympathetically told me.

I nodded during his little speech, I was too speechless to talk though, Liam could tell and pulled me into a warm friendly hug. I could feel a tear drip down my cheek and immediately wiped it away. I pulled away from Liam and shakily stood up. I gave him a thumbs up to show him that I agreed to everything, then walked to our room. I found Niall laying in his bed playing on his phone, he turned it off after realizing I had entered the room and looked  up at me with his mesmerizing blue eyes. "Oh god this is gonna be hard" I thought to myself.

"Good morning" he greeted.

"Morning" I replied putting on a smile.

"Are you gonna get a shower before me?" he asked, his rich Irish accent ringing through my ears. 

"Yeah sure" I grabbed clothes and towels from our closet  and walked to the bathroom. Once in the bathroom, I turned on the warm water and let it run for a minute before stepping into the shower and letting the water flood over me.  While washing my hair I began humming which turned into singing  -  loud singing.

I heard the door slowly open and stopped dead in my tracks. The next thing I heard was the toilet flushing and my skin became numbed by the freezing water. I turned the water off and hopped out of the shower, wrapped a towel around myself, and picked up my clothes to get dressed- wait where were my clothes?I pulled the towel tighter and opened the door and peered into the hallway..no one was there.I walked to our room and knocked loudly.

"Niall cover your eyes" I hollered before slamming the door open and instantly shut. Niall sat on his bed,with his earphones in,stunned. "Look away" I told him. He sat facing the wall while I went to the closet and slid on a bra and underwear and a random sundress hanging.

"You can look now" I told Niall.

"What was that all about?" he asked confused.

"One of the boys snuck into the bathroom and stole my clothes"

Niall looked angry "Thats messed up."

I sat on the bed and wrung my hair out, then let my brown hair cascade down my back.

"Why don't you keep your hair down more often?" Niall asked, watching my every movement.

I shrugged "I'll do it today then and you'll see why". Niall laughed and ruffled his blonde hair.

"Arent you getting your shower?" I questioned.

"Stop hurrying me woman! You just wanna see me naked" he replied in his announcer voice. I burst out laughing.

"Definitely" I replied jokingly.

"I knew it". Niall took his shirt off and walked out of our room and to the bathroom. I walked out into the front where the rest of the boys sat.

"Who did it?" I asked crossing my arms.

"Who did what?" Harry asked innocently.

"Who took my clothes and made the water freezing?".The boys looked at each other and laughed uncontrollably. Louis pulled my clothes out from under the couch and held them out to me. I snatched them from him.

"That was mean!" I said.

"That's what you get for singing so damn loud in the shower" Harry said, Louis,Liam and Zayn to laugh. I playfully pouted and walked back to my room. I sat on my bed and and took out my makeup bag and mirror to start my makeup.

A few minutes later I had finished applying my mascara and foundation when Niall walked into our room.Wearing only a towel. "Oh god this boy is trying to kill me" I thought to myself.  He motioned for me to turn around. I did so and I could hear Nialler rustling around in the closet.

"Which should I wear?" he asked. I turned around to see him standing in his boxers, holding up a black pair of basketball shorts and a grey pair. I pointed to black pair, he slid them on then asked me to pick him out a top. I pulled a white and blue tank top from the closet and threw it to him. He slid it over his abs and torso. He slid on shoes and I grabbed a pair of white sandals out of the closet.

"Woah your not gonna wear converses for once?" he asked 'shocked'. I playfully shoved him, he ran at me and picked me up and proceeded to carry me to the front area. "This is going to be harder than I thought" I thought to myself.
