Chapter Sixteen

Chapter Sixteen
Zayn’s POV
I paid the taxi driver and dropped my bags on the trail of Niall’s house. The door opened slightly and revealed a peeking woman, who I don’t know, maybe was in her forties... Niall’s mum I guessed since they shared the same features.

She looked through the door and when she saw me she smiled warmly and looked at me lovingly.

"You must be Zayn, Niall's boyfriend," she smiled at me.
"Yes. Yes I am," I smiled politely and dropped my bags to shake her hand.
"Oh no, no, Mister, we do hugs, not handshakes...Niall didn't tell you?" She shook her head jokingly disapprovingly. "Shame on him... that boy. Come here boy, give your soon to be mother-in-law a hug." She spread her arms.
I walked to her and hugged her.
"Nice to meet you boy, I'm Maura." Maura, Niall’s mum, said while rubbing my back lovingly.
"Nice to meet you," I said politely.

She pulled back and held me by the shoulders, "Now, dear, Niall’s inside and stop being so uptight, were all family here no need to be so damn polite."
I chuckled slightly, "Hah, okay thank you Mrs."
She pulled back and crossed her arms and gave me a stern look, "Now what did I say about being so polite. Call me Maura not Mrs or any foolish thing like that."
I snorted quietly and smiled bless this woman, "okay MAURA," I put emphasis on her name and laughed.
"That's more like it ZAYN,"

She laughed as well and grabbed some of my bags which I protested about but she replied with 'nonsense I can carry bags, what do you think I am 60? Psh.'

I carried the rest of my bags and inside was a beautiful, brilliant looking Niall standing next to his older brother Greg, whose he's told me about... Just seeing Niall made me go weak at my knees and feel like I could sustain my own weight.
Niall saw me and his face lit up, "ZAYN!" He squealed, aw!
Niall ran to me and I dropped my bags, he jumped on me and wrapped his legs around my waist and cupped my cheeks. I grabbed him by the waist so he wouldn't fall.
He looked at into my eyes lovingly and smiled sincerely, "I missed you, Zaynie."
Before I could say the same words he pulled me into a kiss. The kiss was full of love than could ever be said... Niall's hands cupped my cheeks and his thumb stroked my cheek slightly and made goose bumps rise. I pulled him impossibly closer to me. Niall’s lips moved with mine as if it was all scripted, he then tugged on my bottom lip and I opened an entrance...but he didn't allow himself in....stupid tease. Someone then coughed and I remember we were in front of his mom and brother.
I pulled back and he pouted.
"Sorry babe, more of that later...promise." I kissed his forehead lightly and dropped him swiftly on the ground I then prepared myself to see their reactions.

Greg was scratching the back of his neck awkwardly and looked around and then saw that we were finished.
"Um, nice to meet you, mate." I said trying not to laugh at his reaction.
"Yeah, nice to meet you too, man," he shook my hand and excused himself to his room... oops.

Niall started laughing loudly at his brother’s reaction.
"That was hilarious!" Niall blurted out.
"I don't care if you guys snog in front of me, but I don't think you brother appreciates you much eating each other’s faces off in front of him," Maura said while cleaning the table.
Niall laughed and I laughed too because who could blame me? His laugh is contagious! ...okay well that is true but Greg's reaction was pretty funny aswell...
"Well were going up to my room, mom" Niall called while walking up the stairs.
"Okay tell me if you need anything!" She called back, "you too Zayn don't be shy!"
I chuckled and looked back to Maura who was down the stairs "I won’t, promise!"
"Really don't be! Ask for anything! Something to drink, eat...condooooomsssss.... ANYYTHINGGGG."
I laughed loudly, "Will do!"
Niall's mum could easily pass as a good friend! She's so funny and sweet and easy going... I was slightly nervous about what she would think but she's like one of my sisters! She doesn't even seen like a mum she seems like Nialls sister.
****
Niall closed the door behind him, "Sorry about my mom...she's..."
I interrupted him, "Awesome? Hilarious? Sweet?"
"I was going to say something along the lines of obnoxious...but okayyy, that'll do." Niall laughed. "I'm kidding she's not obnoxious but she thinks were going to get married... the funny thing is she didn't even meet you to predict that."
"Then why did she make that up?" I chuckled.
"She said something like 'I can see it in your eyes Niall...its love. I know it.'"
I smiled to myself before I could comment Niall asked a question.
"Remember when we first told each other we loved each other?" Niall looked into my eyes wonderingly.
