"Autumn?" Niall poked me and exaggerated my name.

"What?" I groaned and squinted my eyes open.

"Wake up." He mumbled.

"What a nice way of telling me to get my ass out of bed Niall." We laughed.

"Makayla made us breakfast." I got up to go take a shower and got dressed for today. Niall was already downstairs when I got down and waiting for food at his plate.

"Good morning Autumn." Makayla said and Hunter smiled at me while he poured some milk for all of us.

"Morning." I yawned.

"How'd you sleep?" Makayla asked.

"Good. You?" This is awkward.

"Great. So I was thinking that today you and I could go bridesmaid dress dashopping with all the bridesmaids and the guys could go pick up Niall's suit."

A

"You haven't gone dress shopping yet?" I sat down.

"No, because we were waiting for you."

"Your wedding is in, like, two weeks! You're crazy."

"All my bridesmaids are skinny, we'll find one." I blushed, smiled, shook my head and looked down at my plate. Niall rubbed his hand on my back and then I saw three pancakes flop on my plate.

"Blueberry?" Niall asked with a mouthful of food. Makayla nodded. He began scarfing down even more food.

"Homemade?" I asked.

"No." She laughed and Hunter did too.

"Makayla, I never saw the ring." I swallowed my food.

"Oh yeah." She put her hand on the table and I picked up her finger looking at the giant rock.

"Geez Hunter."

"That is one large ring." Niall said and laughed to himself. I hit him because he's an idiot.

"You guys are cute." Makayla said. Hunter was giving Niall a stare. Not a death glare, an impatient stare. What was he waiting for?

"Hunter? You okay?" I asked.

"What, yeah, yeah I'm fine. Why do you ask?"

"Well, you're kinda staring down my boyfriend." Niall's arm was on top of my chair.

"Sorry." He said and continued eating. Makayla grabbed Hunter's free hand and rubbed the knuckle telling him to calm down. I do the same to Niall.

"Hunter, do you mind cleaning up the dishes?" Makayla asked after dinner ended.

"Sure." I nudged Niall. He needed to chip in.

"I'll do it Makayla."

"You both can do it." She said.

"Okay, while you guys get started on that, Autumn and I are leaving to meet the girls at the shop." Makayla got her purse and checked her phone while I walked over to Niall at the sink.

"Niall, sorry but I don't have any money to pay for my dress. I didn't bring any and-" he cut me off with a kiss.

"What?" I asked. He dried his hands and ran upstairs quickly then came back down with his wallet.

"Don't worry about it." He kissed my forehead.

"Don't apologize either. My money is your money. Don't ask either." He handed me a few hundred dollars and I asked Makayla if I could keep it in her purse. She nodded.

"Bye boys!" She waved. Niall ran over to me with soapy hands and have me a quick kiss. My cheeks now wet and sticky.

"Thanks." I scrunched my nose.

"Bye Makayla." Hunter kissed her and she got in the car; I followed.

"Makayla, it's really okay. I don't have to be a bridesmaid." I said in the car.

"Nonsense," we laughed,"you're going to be my sister-in-law. Of course you're my bridesmaid." I nodded and looked out the window.

"You know something?" She asked. I turned to her.

"Niall really does love you." I blushed.

"Yeah."

"And you really love him. I can see it. I can feel the love between you two. I need to know how you guys met and everything."

"We met during my babysitting job when I had moved there. I was babysitting his cousin and he wanted to surprise his aunt and uncle and cousin but he came at the wrong time. At the time, I was broke and just on the run. Niall took me in and helped me out with everything. At first I wanted no part of him. He kinda creeped me out. But we started to hang out and he just became really sweet. Then, through the next few months I developed leukemia. I don't know how. It was never in my family or anything, I just kinda got it. Niall couldn't be with me because he was on tour but when he did come back, an incident happened and the cancer was gone. I still have to take medications but I'm better than before. Ever since then we've been inseparable. He took me on creative little dates on the dock when he first met and played our favorite artist. We click so well. I don't know. It's just that feeling." She smiled.

"That's what it feels like with Hunter. He's so protective."

"Tell me about it." I rolled my eyes.

"He would never let me get a boyfriend in school." We laughed.

"I like you Autumn."

"I like you too Makayla. You're a big goof like my brother. In a good way."

"That's why we click, like you said, you and Niall click. What do you guys do together?" She asked.

"Um, we laugh all the time, we dance, we cuddle, watch movies, go out when there's no people, we are inseparable. I feel like I love him too much sometimes." I laughed.

"Like I said, you guys are perfect for each other." We pulled up to the bridal shop and I got out. My skirt almost flying up because of the wind.

"Come on." Makayla said. I walked towards the door and was greeted by her bridesmaids.

"Autumn, this is Abby and Becca." I gave them a hug.

"Autumn is Niall Horan's girlfriend." Makayla said softly.

"Yeah, I thought I'd seen you somewhere before." Abby laughed.

"What's he like?" Becca asked.

"He's a guy." I shrugged. The girls laughed.

"Makayla?" The consultant asked. She nodded.

"My name is Olivia. Let's go on back ladies." She smiled

"Yay!" Makayla cheered and we all went back.
