perfection; pyrocynical (niall comas)

chapter twelve

the house was silent for a few moments, both niall and june in shock. she just clung onto him, and he held onto her. "you're alright. if he comes back, i'll kill him." the blonde mumbled.

the brunette stayed silent, sighing and running fingers through her hair. "thank you for protecting me, and standing up for me." she replied, closing her eyes.

"no need to thank me. it's my job as... whatever we are." niall shrugged slightly. she looked up at him.

"what are we?" she whispered, moving so her forehead was resting against his.

"i don't know yet. we can be whatever you want, i guess." niall responded. leave it to the blonde boy to be a gentlemen, even though they were making out a little while ago.

june thought about this. "we'll figure it out." she decided, looking into his eyes. he seemed to like that idea, nodding with a small smile.

she went to hug him, which he gladly returned. she closed her eyes, sighing in satisfaction.

everything felt like it was okay again, like nothing could lessen the satisfaction of this one moment. she wanted to stay like this forever.

later in the day, june was sitting on the bar stool in the kitchen once again. she chewed on an apple, spinning to see ani walking toward her. "i'm so happy for you guys, you know."she said.

"it's nothing... official, yet." june explained with a shrug.

"not yet." ani teased, wiggling her eyebrows, causing june to roll her eyes playfully.

though the brunette smiled, smiled widely and happily thinking about the situation. finally, something was going good for her. she had niall, the one she wanted from the beginning.

and he wanted her too.

"'m so happy, ani." she ran fingers through her hair as she spoke.

"aww--" ani cooed, going to hug her. june quickly put her apple down on the counter before hugging her best friend back.

"though i came out here to tell you, alex doesn't know about you guys, and you might want to keep it that way. you of all people knows how he gets when you're with someone, especially if that someone is his best friend." ani said in a hushed voice. june nodded slowly. she was right. she's had many experiences with alex and a boy she liked. if one morning a boy had to do the walk of shame from her room and alex caught him, he threw a fit.

"probably a good idea, yeah. though he'll find out eventually, we should probably just keep it quiet until niall and i figure out, what we are, whatever that is." june decided.

"all will turn out well. i've known niall since i met alex, and he's a great guy. he deserves a lot more than he gets, and i feel you're gonna be the one to show him that." ani ranted, her fingers tapping against the countertop as she spoke, nails making a clacking sound.

"i'll try, because you're right. once you get past who he is in his videos, he's such a sweetheart." june sighed softly, chewing on her bottom lip as she thought about it more.

"glad you think so. i'm gonna go tend to the crybaby, i'll see you later." ani walked away and to her and alex's bedroom.

june sat there alone for about an hour, distracted by youtube videos. she'd begun watching them more, and she actually kind of liked it, contradicting her past self.

"you look lonely." a deep voice came from behind her, filling her with satisfying familiarity.

"i'm not lonely now that you're here." june spun around in her stool to meet the owner of the voice she'd taken a liking to.

"fair enough. what're you watching?" niall asked curiously, walking so he was looking into her phone. he snickered at what he saw.

"fucking dr. phil? seriously?" he laughed, making june roll her eyes.

"it's someone reacting to dr. phil, thank you very much. wildspartanz is a god." june defended, crossing her arms stubbornly.

"oh come on, don't be like that." niall almost cooed, taking june's hands away from her chest and holding them.

june smiled, wanting so badly to kiss him. so, she grabbed his hand, and took him to his room, closing the door, and then pressed a kiss to his lips.

"i don't want alex to find out yet." june explained, shrugging after she kissed him. niall nodded, still feeling that kiss haze.

"we can wait as long as you need." niall nodded, resting his hands on her hips. she smiled at the touch, wrapping her arms around his neck. he connected their lips again, moving down to meet her's.

they continued to kiss, and june ran her fingers through his hair, eliciting a him from niall. the kiss got messier, and niall muttered a small 'jump.'

she did, and she was quickly caught by niall as he held onto her thighs. she wrapped her legs around his waist. niall pulled away a few moments later, and so did june, as much as she didn't want to.

"not yet." he mumbled, a small amount of lipstick that she was wearing on his lips. june nodded.

"that's fine with me." she felt herself be set on the ground. "we can wait." the brunette smiled.

"it'll happen eventually, if something happens with us." niall smiled back at her. she reached up, wiping off her lipstick on his lips.

"you look pretty with lipstick." she teased, making him stick his tongue out at her.

"you look prettier with it." niall dismissed. june shook her head.

"no way, you look top model quality." she fought back.

"bet."

"i will bet!"
