By Their Side - Niall Horan Fan Fiction

{8}

***Recap***

“Ari..” I whispered, making sure that Addy wasn’t around.

 

She sat up, “Yeah?”

 

“I need your permission to ask Addy on a date.” I said.

 

Arianne squealed, “Aw that’s so sweet! But you didn’t have to ask me, it’s not my decision! It’s hers!” She said.

 

I sighed and nodded. “I know...”

 

 

 

 

Addison’s P.O.V

 

I finished in the shower, and yawned – it was getting towards 7 o’clock. I’m one of those people who are always really early going to bed and really late waking up. It was cold when I stepped out of the shower, so I shivered and clutched the towel tighter to my body.

 

When I went out, I was in Niall’s room, because I used his shower. I rummaged through his drawers and found some basketball shorts, and an oversized t-shirt that read “Yankees” on it. I brushed my tangled hair and threw it up into a high ponytail.

 

I slipped on my bunny slippers and skipped back to living area where Niall and Arianne were sat on the couch. Niall smiled at me, then raised his eyebrows, “My clothes?”

 

I shrugged and nodded, “I was in your room, so I thought why not?” I smiled.

 

“Well it looks good.” Niall said.

 

Arianne waggled her eyes at me and I blushed, my cheeks felt like they were on fire.

 

Thanks Ari.

 

 

 

I must’ve fallen asleep in the living room because I woke up in the living room. That sounded weird. There was a note on the table that said:

Hi Addy! Niall here. I’m writing this to tell you that there’s a surprise for you in your bedroom. But that’s not all! Follow all the notes and you’ll get to me! XXX

 

I smiled to myself and entered my bedroom, and nearly crapped myself. There was a woman in my room, she had purple hair and was oh my God. Lou freaking Teasdale. I smiled politely at her. “Hello.”

 

She smiled too. “Hi, love. I’m Lou and I’ll be helping you get ready for tonight.”

 

“Tonight?” I asked, still confused. Was Niall behind all of this?

 

Lou tsked, “I’m not giving anything away.” She smirked.

 

I sighed, “Worth a shot.”

 

Lou began pulling out this adorable lilac dress that had a lace see through on the belly. It was really pretty, and the exact thing I’d wear. Lou told me to go over to the chair in front of the mirror, and sit down. She began curling my hair and adding hairspray. Then she turned me away from the mirror, so she could do my makeup.
