The Irish Lad: A One Direction Fan Fiction

Chapter 7

A/N: Okay, so the last chapter was terrible and short, but this one is long. Nothing could fit into a chapter of its own. Story of my life #writersproblems. Anyway, it's long. Bear with me.

Niall's POV

It was a week after prom, and Katie was graduating. She had passed all of her exams, and I had helped her study--a little. Katie was now receiving her diploma, and I could not clap any harder.

Twenty minutes later, she was recessing down the aisle, and I met her outside the door. She ran up to me, and I picked her up in a hug and spun her around before putting her back on the ground, and extending a bouquet of pink flowers. She smiled.

"Niall? For me?" I nodded to her, and she gave me a hug and took the flowers. "Wow, these are gorgeous!" Katie smelled the flowers."Thank you, Niall, they're beautiful."

"Anything for my girl." I said, and I kissed her. She giggled.

"Why don't we get home?" She asked and I nodded.

Katie's POV

Niall drove me home, and we had lunch with my family. My brothers, Patrick and Colin, were home and were meeting Niall for the first time. I held his hand under the table.

Once we had finished lunch, Niall and I went downstairs for a moment to collect ourselves before we talked to my family.

"Are you ready, babe?" He asked.

"Yea. Of course. No, not really." I said. He gave me a hug and kissed me.

"We can do this." I took his hand and we went back upstairs to the family room. My parents and brothers were all sitting around in the chairs and the couch. Niall and I stood in front of them.

"Mom? Dad? Can we talk to you about something?" I asked.

"Sure, love, what is it?" My dad asked.

"Well, Niall and I have been together for three weeks. We both know that isn't very long, but we both agree that we don't want to be apart."

"Katie, you're not pregnant?" Patrick asked.

"No, of course not." Everyone relaxed.

"You want to get married?" My mom asked

"No, mom, let me finish." Everyone relaxed a little more. "Niall is leaving on tour in a week. He'll be gone for two months. I'm not doing anything important in those two months. I can be there with him. He's going back to London on Monday to spend time with the boys and pack some things at his flat. I'd like to go with him. I'll be back in August to get ready for Uni. I'd get to see the world. We'll be going to the states and aroud Europe and to Australia. It's a great experience for me, and that way, Niall and I don't have to be apart. I'll be miserable here waiting for days off when he can visit. Niall and I will be visiting if there's enough time off. I'll call everyday. I can do this."

They all stared at me in shock, but then Colin jumped up and broke the silence."Let me get this straight. You want to take my baby sister off on your tour for two months to live your rock n' roll lifestyle that we all know is gonna hurt her because you're just some punk looking for everything any other lad your age wants?" Niall looked surprised.

"No, Colin. I would never hurt her--" He started, but Patrick cut him off.

"DAMN STRAIGHT!" Patrick began to lunge for Niall, but Colin was able  to pull him back into his seat.

"Pat, have ya lost yer mind?" I asked him.

"He's only doing this to hurt you Katie! You don't just get up and leave with the first celebrity that comes to yer door! You barely know him!" Patrick said, which really shocked me
