Unexpected

Chapter 17

I rolled my eyes and made my way through massive drips of water on my head. I clenched my jaw and just pushed through my anger. This could only happen to me. Niall saw my annoyance and he just smirked but he didn't dare say anything to me.

I swear I could have screamed at border control when it was going slow. I just wanted to murder them.

And the paparazzi when we reached the end of it all.

"You have got to be kidding me." Niall mutters. He grabs my hand and takes me a way just to avoid the paparazzi.

Eventually, we make it to a classy white BMW with stunning leather seats. I was just about to relax when a thought suddenly over took my brain.

"I'm going to have to meet the boys!" I exclaim and then just melt into the seat. I really wanted to die in a hole right now.

"Yeah and the rest?" Niall laughs.

"Wait what? The rest?" My jaw drops.

"Ash, Luke, Callum, Mike. 5 seconds of summer."

"Oh I like them. Callum is very hot." I grin. Niall rolls his eyes at me.

I refused to look outside of the window because I don't want to look like a common tourist but I couldn't help it after so long. I'd latch onto certain things that would remind me of a time with a friend.

Soon the raging city turned into something a lot quieter and then we stopped in front of a modern and beautiful building. Niall climbs out of the car so I do the same. I grab my bag and then follow Niall. I suddenly stop in fear. I couldn't do this. I couldn't move in with him. I take a long blink and try slowing the pace of which I breathe but nothing seems to work. I fiddle with a bracelet on my wrist to try and calm myself. I swallow nothing and then take a step forward only to stop again. I drag my hand through my hair in annoyance.

Niall walks up to me and pulls me into his chest. I want to walk away but I couldn't. Niall was my new comfort zone as well as that car which was now gone.

"You'll be fine Jess. It'll just be us." He whispers. I can hear my heart racing in my ears.

"I'll be fine." I sigh and then take a step forward. I kept repeating that I was fine until I was in his house? Apartment? Mansion?

Everything was so pristine and weird. The walls were either plain white or covered in loads of random stuff. Evidently from times with the boys. I leave my bag next to Niall's. He takes my hand and leads me into the living room. Everything happened too fast. All I knew was that I screamed and basically ran out of the room. I could hear people laughing which was worse. They were probably laughing at me. I heard Niall and then everything go deadly silent. An Australian accent perked up followed by a British one. 5 seconds of summer were Australian right? I had the take my mind off everything.

Niall walks out to me. I really couldn't do this. I couldn't move in with him. And I desperately felt the need to suddenly cry. I forced any forming tears away and then turned to Niall.

"I am so sorry about them. I told them you were coming and asked them not to do this." Niall tries to explain.

"You told them about me?" I said in utter shock.

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I?"

I could think of a lot of replies but kept it simple.

"No reason."

A sandy blonde headed lad with a bandanna pops his head from around the door frame.

"Is everything okay?" He says in a perfect Australian accent.

"Yeah if you just keep speaking." I reply. This guy smiles at me revealing dimples.

"Cal will do that."

"You always leave me with three seconds to speak!" Another Australian voice shouts gaining a laugh from the person in front of me.

"You coming in?" The person asks and I just nod as I step in. Most of the guys are sprawled over the sofa.

"I'm Ash by the way." He says as he puts his arms around me. I weirdly feel okay with him hugging me so I hug back.

"You can let go now." I say after the hug gets awkward but that just births a room of people singing 'let it go'.

Everyone introduces themselves eventually. There were way too many lads here right now. Hilarious, immature lads. But all the same.

It soon goes from an awkward and oppressive atmosphere to a relaxed one. We were all watching Anchorman and laughing at the inappropriate moments.

After the movie, all the guys leave but not before us all trading numbers. I had just gained eight numbers. That was more in one night than I gain in three years.

Niall kindly let's me settle in and let's me put my stuff away. I leave the money in my suitcase but I do get changed into a pair of old shorts and a random baggy top. I was shattered and it was only like 5 p.m. I had to stay awake for at least two more hours.

But that was a fail. When I got downstairs, Niall and I watched a random t.v programme and I fell asleep on him. I didn't realise, it just happebed accidentally.
