Niall waited all day for this moment to come so he got so excited when Jackie entered the room. He had never actually seen her face so he didn't know that it's actually not Taylor Swift. After she entered he decided to hide in the closet and scare her when she opens the door.

Jackie went out with Ben for the rest of the day and made sure to bring a coat which was perfect for Niall because she hangs it in the closet.

When Jackie enters she's so tired and all she wants to do is get ready for bed and sleep. She almost forgets to put her jacket away but she's so tired that she doesn't realize that she's walking to the closet.

She opens the door fast and Niall screams boo in her face. Jackie jumps back and falls on the floor screaming the whole time.

Just as she lands on the floor her parents run and ask whats wrong.

"There's a man in the closet and he just screamed at me!" Jackie yells.

"Jackie don't play games with us; there's no one there and you know it too." her dad replies.

"Dad I swear there was someone there!" Jackie yells back.

"Well we don't believe you honey, and we're tired so we're just gonna go sleep. Whatever you saw must've been in your head. Everything will be fine I think you just need some sleep too." her mom says.

After her parents leave Jackie gets ready for bed and realizes they must be crazy.

As she's laying in bed Niall appears in front of her. She wants to scream again but he silences her so her parents don't wake up.

"Who are you?" Jackie says.

"I'm Niall Horan from One Direction" Niall replies.

"I hate One Direction! They're really rude and their music sucks!" Jackie says as Niall notices the poster of The Wanted hanging in her wall.

"Hey!.We're not that bad. Besides even our drummer has more fans than the shitty band you like" Niall tells her.

"Wait aren't you dead!?" asks Jackie.

"Yes I am"

"Then why can I see you? How come my parents can't see you?" Jackie asks as she starts to realize how creepy the situation is.

"Since I've been dead for a while now I've learned that some people who are lucky are able to see me." Naill tells her.

"That's weird" Jakcie replies.

"I know. I really wish my family could see me; I miss them so much." Niall says with a look of sadness in his blue eyes.

"That sucks! What about the rest of your band can they see you?" Jackie asks as she thinks about what it would be like to be able to see her loved ones when they can't see her.

"Only Liam can see me. I love seeing him, but I wish the other boys could see me too. I miss talking to them. I miss Louis constantly joking around. I miss Harry. He was always there for me when I needed him. I miss Zayn too. Even though he was pretty quiet his smile always made my day better." Niall says as Jackie realizes that Niall isn't ugly like she thought.

"Wow! I always thought you guys were just in it for the money; I didn't know that you guys cared so much about each other" Jackie replies.

"We also care about our fans. I wish I could thank them for all they've done one more time. Without them we would be nowhere." Niall says as Jackie notices that Niall is super hot.

She starts to imagine what it would be like to kiss him, but then realizes it would be awkward since they only just met each other.

"I'm sure they know that you're thankful for what they've done." Jackie says.

"Yeah you're right. I also really miss food. Since I'm a ghost I don't have to eat. I doesn't stay down very well. If I could have one last meal I would eat a table full of Nandos." Niall says.

"Haha isn't that just a fast food restaurant from the UK?" Jackie says while trying not to laugh too hard because she knows how disrespectful that would be.

"Yeah but it's the best food I've ever had." Niall says.

Jackie starts to realize how lucky she is. How all of the directioners would be jealous that she's having a deep conversation with Niall.

She wonders why the ghost of a major celebrity would pick a nobody like her to haunt.

"Why are you even here?" Jackie asks Niall.

"Since Taylor Swift was the one that killed me I decided I wanted to haunt her as revenge. To make her regret killing me even though I already know she does. I heard she had bought a new house somewhere in Georgia, and when I saw you I thought you were her. Now that I can finally see your face I realize you're not her, but you're still just as beautiful." Niall says as he realizes that he just made everything awkward.

"You think I'm beautiful?" Jackie asks Niall.

"Yeah. Does that surprise you?" Niall asks Jackie.

"A little. I've never had a guy think of me that way before except for my best friend Ben. He doesn't have a crush on me though because we've known each other for so long that we're pretty much family." Jackie.says.

"Well all the other guys out there are stupid for not seeing your beauty." Niall says as he looks at Jackie's beautiful wavy blonde hair and the way it shines under the moonlight coming from the window.

"Thanks" Jackie says as she realizes that they've been talking for almost 3 hours.

"Well it's almost 2 AM, I should probably let you get some sleep. I'll come back tomorrow and.we can talk some more." Niall says as he slowly fades away.
