Only You and Me

Chapter 5

Niall POV

"So what did you get for our movie night Haz?"

I looked at the curly haired boy playfully as he sorted out the stuff he bought earlier that day. I'm really glad I chose to not avoid Harry anymore. I missed him alot. Yeah so he kissed me. And yeah he might potentially fancy me. And I might potentially fancy him back. I'm not about ruin our friendship because of that though. 

"Hmmm well I got some snacks. And the movie we're watching tonight is uhh The Cabin in the Woods"  Harry looked away quickly and started setting up our entertainment system.

I raised a brow and looked at him intently. I'd never heard of that movie. Maybe some action movie? I hope to hell it's not a horror movie. I HATE horror movies. Okay maybe I don't hate them. It's just out of all tof us in the band, I'm the most jumpy. I jump at every little thing that happens. I remember watching Woman in Black and freaking when the dog started barking because he knew she was there but Daniel had no clue what was going on. The suspense really gets to me. It wasn't even that scary of a movie. But I ended up hiding behind Liam the whole time. And then having to sleep in Zayn's room right after.

"What kind of movie is it?"

"Huh? Oh it's uh  Sci-Fi?"

I scrunched my eyebrows. He didn't sound too sure about it. And I could tell he was hiding something from me. 

"It's not horror is it? RIght? You know I'm not good with horror films" 

"Y-yes Nialler, don't worry about it" He smiles at me and I'm reassured by his comforthing gaze. I shift uncomfortably on the couch as I watch Louis return from putting all our stuff away from earlier. Just as Lou plops onto the couch next to me, the door bursts open and I see  Zayn walk in and Liam following in behind him.

"We made it back in time!" Zayn says with huge smile on his face. I laughed as they both rushed to the couch. 

"Thought you guys were gonna be late" Harry said with a grin plastered on his face. He finally had everything set up and started the movie.

"Hey I have Daddy Direction with me. Doubt I could be late for anything even if I wanted too"

"Hey! At least I take these things seriously" I laugh again when I see Liam feign a hurt look. He looked so cute when he looks upset even though he was pretending.  I pulled him inbetween me and Louis. 

"It's okay Li. You know I wouldn't be able to get through anything without you" I whisper quietly. I notice a small blush appear on his face and I can't help but laugh again. 

"Alright lads let's get on with this!" Lou says ecstatically. He's literally bouncing in his seat like and energetic bunny. Heh maybe that's why he likes carrots so much. 

My stomach began to growl again and realized no one made the popcorn. 

"Wait I need to make popcorn!" I yell and run to the kitchen. The rest of the guys laugh at my antics. I pout a little but hurry and start making the popcorn. Who can watch movie without popcorn anyways? It's like a golden rule. Thou shall eat popcorn during movies. I think it went something like that.

I hum to myself quietly as I watch the popcorn pop. Pop pop pop. I realized I need to get a bowl big enough to hold the popcorn so I search through the shelves of the kitchen. I can't seem to find a bowl big enough until I open a cabinet. THERE! At the very top shelf . I reach for it but can't quite get a good grasp on it. Who thought it was smart to build shelves that high? Didn't they every think about those poor leprechauns out there in the world?

I go on my toes and barely manage to get the tips of my fingers to reach it. I groan in frustration as I try to slip the bowl off the shelf. 

'WHY THE HELL AM I SO DAMN SHORT?' I fume to myself quietly. I'm literally making small tip toe jumps in hopes of reaching it when I see a hand grab the bowl in front of me. I can feel a body pressed up to mine.
