Temptations [Niall Horan]

Chapter 16

"That tickles," I giggle, as he plays with the tips of my fingers.

I was laying with him on his couch, my back to his front, and a warm blanket draped over us. His warm breath panned over my cheek as he planted a delicate kiss to my skin. My breathing quickened as his lips trailed up my neck, pausing just below my ear.

"I love ya," he whispered, nuzzling his head into my neck. I loved this side of Niall...this non aggressive side.

This caring side.

"And I love you," I murmured.

I giggled as he smiled into my neck, trailing wet kisses from its base to my face.

Turning into him, I wrapped my arms around his neck, smiling as he pulled me closer. He began rubbing small, soothing, circles into my lower back, his hands trailing to my waist.

"Why are you being so lovey dovey this evening?" I asked, staring into his perfect eyes. He half smiled, leaning in until our foreheads were touching.

"Cause I thought that's what ya liked me to be. And to be honest, I kinda like bein all mushy with ya. It makes me feel good," he explained, pecking my nose.

"Well, you're absolutely right..... I love it when you're like this."

He rolled his eyes, emitting a giggle from me. He smiled, leaning in and giving me a quick kiss.

We stared at eachother a moment as he pulled away, his lips still dangerously close to mine. The want for him within me grew as I studied his features, my heart beating faster.

I wrapped my arm around his neck, quickly pulling his head back down and bringing his mouth to mine. His grip around me tightened as our lips moved together again.

We pulled away, breathless, a moment later.

"How do ya always manage to do that?" He quietly asked.

"Do what?" I replied, confused. I watched as the blush on his cheeks grew, his eyes darting from mine.

"Give me butterflies."

My heart melted, the smile on my face growing.

That.

That there, was the reason I loved him.

"Aw Niall," I cooed, rubbing noses with him. He chuckled, sitting up on the couch.

"Alright babe, since you're spendin the day with me.... what movie are we watchin?" he asked, moving over me and walking to a large shelf, filled with movies.

"I don't care! Something cute, but adventurous I guess."

He turned to his collection, fingering through the DVD'S until he came to one. I expected it to be something like Titanic or Love Actually.......But no.

"Really, Niall? Saw 3?" I groaned.

"Yeh! C'mon babe, it's adventurous, and I'm pretty sure this one has a little bit of romance in it!"

At first I thought he was joking..... but the expression on his face told me otherwise.

"You've got to be kidding........ Niall, please, no scary movies. I get scared really easily, and I hate them," I mumbled, hunkering down into the warm leather couch. I watched as he slid the DVD into the player, hurrying over and slipping back in next to me.

"Don't worry baby. I'll protect ya... 'Won't let the monsters get ya," he promised, wrapping an arm around me. I smiled, cuddling deeper next to him as the movie began.
