You'll Never Walk Alone

Niall's POV

The boys and I sat at our favorite booth in Nandos. The waitress came and asked what we wanted to drink.

"Are you ready to take your orders?" she smiled.

"No, we're waiting for two girls," Zayn stated politely.

"Oh, ok," disappointment shone in her eyes.

While we enjoyed our drinks, we cracked jokes at each other. We laughed and were really enjoying ourselves. I looked down to drink my soda. That's when the boys go quiet. First I hear Liam start mumbling to himself. "You're in a relationship, you're in a relationship." Then Louis exclaims," Oh my Carrot!" I hear a clatter come from across the table and Liam yelps. Someone probably dropped their spoon. Then I finally looked up. Soda was in my mouth and I was about to swallow when I noticed that Catelyn and Nataly had arrived. But they were the reason everyone had gone into shock.

Catelyn was dressed in a short, red dress. Her hair was curled and cascading down her shoulders. The boys were probably looking at her (she wasn't bad looking) but I was more focused on Nataly. She wore a similar dress, except hers was all white. An angel sent from above, I think to myself. Once I noticed the two girls, I almost sprayed soda all over Zayn and Liam.

The girls giggled. "Hello boys," Nataly greeted us in between laughs.

"H-h-hi," we all stammer.

 I stood up and let Nataly slide into the booth in between me and Louis.

"Elaenor, Eleanor, she's your girlfriend," I hear Louis mutter under his breath. I looked at her and smiled. She smiled back. I quickly looked down. I looked away, blushing.

 Catelyn slide in between Liam and Zayn. Liam, Zayn, and Harry seemed shocked and lost for words when she slid into the booth. Harry kept checking her out.

"So what's good here?" I hear Nataly ask.

"You," I find myself muttering.

"What was that Niall?" Harry chuckled, a sly smile on his face.

"Nothing. They have good pasta here," I mutter, embarrased.

"Oh come on, Harry. He's a teenage boy. Sometimes things trigger him," Liam lookes at Nataly," and he finds himself saying things he doesn't know he's saying," he finishes, looking at Catelyn. Then he breaks down and starts mumbling," you're in a relationship, you're in a relationship," all over again.

"I understand what Liam's saying," chorused Zayn and Harry.

The waitress came to take our orders. She was gone really soon though.

"Well, this is awkward," Louis breathes.

Catelyn breaks the silence by engaging in a conversation with the boys. Louis happily joined in. I looked around the restaurant, trying to avoid looking at Nataly. Even though I just met her, she had an overwhelming effect on me.

"Is something bothering you, Niall?" Nataly's voice suddenly rings in my ear.

I turn to look at her, her eyes were dark now. But there was feeling in every sparkling detail.

"No, it's just..." I couldn't finish. What was I supposed to say? I'm attracted to you like moths are to light. And that dress you're wearing is a even brighter light. So I just settled on the most simple way to answer.

"Just?" she pressed on.

"You just look really beautiful in that dress," I look her in the eye. Her eyes sparkle. She like the sound of that. She blushed and turned away.

"Oh, sorry then," she says, turning away.

"No, no, don't take it that way. It's just... you're looking like very, very, emphasize on the very, very attractive in that dress."
