The next morning my alarm wakes me up at five in the morning, like always when I have class. I sit up and rub my eyes, look over to Brooke and see that she was still sleeping. I get out of bed, take my towel and make my way to the bathrooms.

 I take my clothes of, get into the shower and turn the cold water on. In the morning I always need that, else I do not know how to be awake enough for class. After that I change the water to warm/hoter to relax. Morning showers are my favorite thing in the morning and if I could I would stay in here the whole day. Sadly I can not.

 I take my towel and dry myself, wrap it around my body and get out of the shower. I always shower that early because no one was in the bathroom and I have a lot of time and do not have to rush. I brush my teeth and then go back to my room.

Back in my room I open my closet, put on my underwear and have a big struggle, as always, on deciding what to wear. After a couple minutes I take a pair of dark blue ripped boyfriend jeans and a low cut black sweater. And for schoes I decide to wear black sneakers. It is a comfortable but also really good looking outfit that will be perfect for the day. 

 I take my backpack and put my books and laptop in. Brooke is already awake, sitting on her desk, doing last minute studying for a test she has today, I do not want to bother her so I just give her a quick hug annd leave the room.

On my way to class I stop by a coffeshop, order a cup of coffee and a salmon/cream cheese bagel, my favorite. I sit down since I have one hour left until my first class starts. I take my phone out of the pocket of my sweater.  I have not texted Niall yet and I do not know if I should do it now at 8 a.m. but a quick 'hey' is not going to hurt anyone, right? 

 *Hey, it is me Cassandra.'*

It is basic but I can not think of anything more interessting so I guess that is good enough. I put my phone on the table and start eating my bagel. I really want to meet Niall, just to get to know him better and build a frienship or something. I honestly can not forget his beautiful blue eyes, the way they wrinkle when he smiles, it is so adorable.

I am torn from my thoughts when my phone buzzes. I take it and look at it, it is a message from Niall. A little smile appears on my lips as I read the message. 

*Hey Cassandra, I was worried you forgot about me, how are you doing?*

 How can I forget about him? I want to text him that but since I do not really know him, I think it will be a little inappropriate. So I do not give him an answere on that, instead, I tell him that I am doing good and ask him aswell. We have a small conversation and actually decide to meet up at a pizza place near my WWU.

 Our chat ends with me telling him I have to make my way to class now and that I will text him later. I take my backpack and coffee and make my way to class.

The day passes by quite fast, at least it feels like that. I am sitting in class thinking about how my meeting would go with Niall and I hopee nothing embarassing will happen, else I do not know what to do. I remember that I have to text Niall to let him know that class is nearly over and that he does not have to pick me up since the pizza place is only a few minutes away. He replies and askes if I am sure and I say yes because first, I like walking, and second, it is better for the enviroment.

Class ends and I walk out with Brooke. 

''And, are you planing on making anything more than lunch?'' I laugh and shake my head. Do I? I mean, I do not really know him and I honestly do not want to rush things, but you never really now, right?

''Everything is possible but for now we are just two people who are maybe building a friendship and having a nice pizza for lunch.'' I answere and she just looks at me with a look that says 'I know something is going to happen'. I hate that look. 

''Anyway...'' I start. ''Niall and I are meeting up there so I should get going. Wish me look.'' I say while giving her a short hug. We say our 'goodbyes' and I make my way to the restaurant.

When I arrive, I see that Niall wsee already sitting at a table while looking at his phone. I walk towards him.

''Hey Niall.'' I say and he immediatly looks at me, a little smile appears on his lips and he stands up. 

''Hey Cassandra.'' He give me a little hug. 

''Have a seat, please.'' So I sit down infront of him. 

''So, how are you doing?'' He asks me while taking a sip out of his glass of water. 

''Good, and you?'' 

''Well, I am having lunch with you so I can only be good.'' His beautiful eyes are looking at me while he says those words and I can not help it but smile. 

''Thank you, that is really sweet of you.'' I do not know why, but I am shy all of the sudden. Is he flirting with me? No, it is just something nice to say to a girl so definitly no flirting here.

The waiteress comes and takes our orders. I order a pepperoni and cheese pizza, Niall decides to eat an only chesse pizza which has three kinds of cheese. The waitress leaves our table and Niall leans back in his chair and looksat me. I do not find it intimidaiting like when Harry does it, no it is the complete opposite. I do not really know Harry or Niall, but Niall was definitly nicer, cuter and more adorable than Harry. If I would become more friends with Niall that means I have to get along with Harry but he seems kind of like a womenizer or something like that and if he will always be like the first time I see him when he is around me, I will not know what to do. I mean, I am a strong young woman and of course I can kick his ass if he will get too anoying, but I really did not want to do that so I just hope he will get his shit together.

Our food arrives and the pizzas looks amazing. I take a slice and take a bite out of it. I close my eyes for a second when the taste spreads out in my mouth. It is really good. The cheese is gooey and the pepperoni, oh my god that pepperoni. Niall looks at me and laugh a little.

''It is tasty, isn't it?'' He asks.

''It is by far the best pizza I ever head.'' I answere while enjoying my slice. I take a sip out of my green tea-lemon ice tea and continue to eat my pizza.

We are just sitting here, eating and talking about stuff you talk about when you want to get to know someone better. He tells that he is from Irland and move to London because of Univeristy. He is twenty-four years old, has an older brother who has a son. He lives with Harry and Liam who are his best friends, just like Zayn and Louis who both lived with their girlfriends.

I really enjoye spending time with him because the more we talk and laugh, the more I like him and the more interesting I find him. He is also really curious to find out stuff about me, like where I am from, what I study and why the sky is blue, yes, he actually asks me that and it was kind of adorable, do not ask me why. I do not know how long we were sitting in that restaurant because I honestly lost track of time, but it is okay. I do not like anything more at the moment than losing track of time while being with Niall.
