Eccentric (Niall Horan)

Chapter 16

*Unedited*

Jesse who was walking by my side pushes me slightly with her shoulder. When I look at her she's in awe. Chuckling at her expression I feel someone step on my shoe pulling it off my foot. Wearing it like a sandal I almost trip over myself that I look back behind me.

Niall stands behind me with his head facing the floor and his glasses back on. He doesn't knowledge me looking at him, instead his pace quickens and he passes me brushing my shoulder walking towards his car.

"Here Jesse I'll help you with those" Liam offers to carry the billions of bags that Jesse carries. She smiles at him but her attention is to Daniel. He gets into the drivers seat with Giselle next to him. Jesse gives me a thumbs up for good luck and I return the favor.

"Century do you only have one bag?" Louis suddenly walks in front of me and points to my one and only bag.

"Yeah, I really wasn't into the mood of shopping. I practically was forced here" I adjust my small jacket and make Louis smirk.

"Alright then here I'll take that for you" He extends his hand.

"Oh no it's okay, I can take it myself. It's just one bag" I say.

"Alright" He takes my wrist with his warm sweaty hand and guides me to the car. Niall who sits in the drivers seat with his fist leaning on his face and his elbow on the window. His other hand tightly grips on the steering wheel, his knuckles turning white. I can't see his eyes under his sunglasses, but I feel them on me.

Louis opens the door for me and smiles gesturing me in.

"Guys looks like I'll be tagging along" To my luck Vanessa quickly stomps her way around the car and hops into the passenger seat. When I look at Niall, I see his face through the side mirror but I don't know if he is looking at me. I feel eyes on me but when I come to think of it, it could just be Louis from behind.

"Well then looks like I'll be tagging along in the back" Louis chuckles and helps me get in. Instantly I am met with the new car smell. There's a tint of smoke but surprisingly inside its clean.

Louis walks around the car from behind after he has shut the door and comes in from the other door across from mine.

"Alright let's go" Louis says and just like that Niall starts the engine with Vanessa and Louis buckling there seat belts. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion as in why would Louis be putting his seatbelt on in the back, every time I sit in the back of a car I never put my seatbelt on. I would have assumed they wouldn't even put safety first since they look like the kind of people.

"See you guys later!" Vanessa shouts through Niall's window to Daniel. She looks at me with a smirk before she press's her back firmly against the seat.

"You might want to put your seatbelt on Century" Louis says just as Niall steps on the gas. The wheels screech against the concrete floor as we pull out of the parking space. We turn with full speed followed by another, and another. I slightly hit my head against the window when Niall pulls into the road through a small space between two cars. The cars honk at Niall's wreck less driving and grip onto the leather seat and door.

"How fast are we going?" I look at Louis and he chuckles.

"Pretty fast" He says and leans over to grab my seat belt and wraps it around me securing it.

Niall continues with his full speeding, dodging cars furiously. I almost lose my breath when he abruptly stops but somehow gentle at a red light. I look at the rear view mirror and for the first time today I can see Niall's blue blazing eyes shining through his sunglasses. He's looking right at me with his jaw tense, buts it's only for a brief moment before he looks away.
