STARGAZER

CHAPTER 15: STARGAZER

(Day 12, just landed in Toronto)

"We're about to land in Toronto. Please keep your seat belts on and get prepared for landing." The woman spoke turning the lights on. It was around midnight and everyone was half asleep on the plane. 

I wasn't asleep, I was staring out the window down at the lights coming from the houses below. It was truly beautiful. 

It was a shaky landing, but we made it. All I had on my mind was seeing Niall's smile again and feeling his lips brushed up against mine. Right now it's a little awkward. It always is the few couple days you're with someone. You both don't know what your limits are, or what is attractive to each other. You aren't totally there to full on love mode but you're starting to get settled in. I really hope this stage goes by fast because I really can't control my feelings for him much longer. Like, just the way he walks makes me woozy because he's mine. Everything about him is mine and I just.. It's crazy. 

The streets were stripped bear from the paparazzi's outside the hotel but I knew they were staying in the one we're staying in. We walked up to our room and put our things away in the dressers and got our pajamas on. 

"Do you want to go find the boys?" Beatrice said yawning in between words.

"Yeah, If you want to, I'm going you don't have to." I said opening the door.

"Nah, You go ahead. You can tell Harry if he wants to come down and see me I'm just super tired." She jumped on the bed and I could hear her snoring instantly. 

I went to every floor searching for Paul outside a door, when on the 5th floor I saw him. 

"Hey! You're here. You really should have told him. He's been going mad not seeing you." Paul whispered to me with a smile on his face.

"Yeah I know. I know." I blushed. 

Paul opened the door slowly for me and I tiptoed in. I turned the corner and saw the back of 5 heads watching A scary movie on the couch. I saw Niall's hair and went up behind him. When I got close I put my hands on his shoulders and moved them down his chest for a hug from behind but he instantly jumped up yelling turning on the light switch. I stood there laughing and he came over to hug me. 

"WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING SOPH." Louis said yelling and pausing the movie.

"I missed you so much." Niall whispered in my ear. 

I turned to look at the boys on the couch and greet them properly but Niall put his hand on my chin and pulled my lips to his. I couldn't help it, I kissed him back. 

"Awe you sickos get a room." Zayn said coming over to break us apart.

"I missed you babe, you're looking fit." He said hugging me putting his hands a little too low. 

"Zayn what did I say." Niall replied when he heard that come out of Zayn's mouth. They must have had a talk. That's cute he's being protective.

I pushed Zayn away playfully, and hugged Liam.

"Hey! Glad you're here. We missed having you around." He's sweet. He's so sincere in every word he says.

"WHAT ABOUT ME. I'm always last in the hugging department." Harry said sitting criss cross on the couch pouting his bottom lip. I walked over and hugged him squeezing extra hard because I felt bad. 

"Harry, Beatrice told me to tell you she's down in the hotel and if you want to see her you can go. She's passed out asleep right now. I mean.. if you want to sleep there you can." His smile lit up the whole room as he ran and got his pillow pet. 

"I'LL SEE YOU GUYS IN THE MORNING." He yelled quickly running out of the room. Not even a minute went by and he ran back in.

"You never told me the room number." He said smiling out of breath probably from rushing. He's so eager to see her. I gave him the key and he finally left. They started the movie back up again but Niall told me to come with him to his seperate room.

We laid there on the bed just staring into each others eyes and it felt like the whole world stopped. Nothing mattered but him. Nothing mattered but this moment right now. Not the past, not the future. Right now is where it's at. 

His eyes got serious. "You really thought I would cheat on you?" He said in a hurt voice.

"Well.. I don't know Niall. I'm a stupid girl. Whenever a girls boyfriend is with a much hotter girl they automatically think they are cheating on them. It's just the way it goes." I replied calmly.

"You're not just another stupid girl, Sophia. You should know that I'll never do that to you. Can you trust me?" I know I can. I know I should. So I will.

I held up my pinkey, and said "Do you Niall Horan. Pinkey swear to never cheat on me, and to never lie to me?" I was trying to be serious but when he made his unsure face. I couldn't help but burst out in a laugh.

"Of course I pinkey swear." And he put his pinkey around mine. 

He pulled me against his body. His lips hovered over mine until he started kissing me. His lips tasted like butter from the popcorn he was eating but I didn't care. Things were getting pretty intense when I pulled my leg onto his waist. He stopped kissing me when I did that, but then went on to my neck. My eyes were closed and I could feel his hand traveling to the hem of my shirt. His hands were warm like always, and then he reached the bare skin on my back. I got nervous, and I could feel heat on my cheeks. All I could think about was that night, and being raped. I know that's not what it would be like with Niall. Maybe I need to get it over with..

I pulled my shirt back down and he slipped his arm out from my back. He saw my cheeks and my expression and said in a whisper "I'm sorry Sophia."

He shouldn't be blaming himself. It's my fault. "No. Niall. Don't be sorry. It's just I've never really been in THAT part of a relationship and the whole thing with my ex probably ruined it for the rest of my life.."

His eyes were looking at mine still but I have looked away staring at his lips. His lips parted like he was about to say something.

"Sophia. I think i'm in love with you." He said it. He thinks he's in love with me. My heart I could feel it, the heaviness on my chest but at the same time it feels like it's beating out of my body. 

"Niall. I do love you." I replied, and looking back up to his eyes. 

This is it. This is where it all starts. I have told him I loved him. I told him and now it's the start of something brand new. The start of realizing what true love is. What I had with my ex wasn't, and I'm so excited to be in love with Niall. 

He pulled me into a hug, and after a few minutes whispered in my ear "I promise I love you." 

And I knew he meant it.
