Chapter 10

The flight was going to take 10 hours. That meant 10 whole hours trapped on a plane with four guys who were extremely messy and immature. Great. I couldn't wait to see Niall though. My heart was hurting from all the time we had been apart.

We all got into the plane safely despite all the fans that tried to maul the boys. I got shot more than a couple dirty looks. I had a feeling the fans wouldn't like a girl traveling with what they thought were their future husbands. Whatever. It didn't bother me. I just wanted to get to Niall as soon as possible.

I sat inbetween Louis and Liam. We talked for a while but soon, I grew tired. I remember hearing the faint talking of the boys for a while. The next thing I knew, I was woken up by Liam gently shaking me.

"The pilot said we would be landing in a couple minutes." I lifted my head off his shoulder and attempted to smooth down my unruly bedhead hair. I gave up and threw it up in a messy bun. I couldn't wait. I felt myself smile.

"Please fasten your seatbelts. We will be landing shortly." the pilot said over the loud speaker.

The landing, the airport and the car ride to the hotel we would be staying in were all a blur. I got my own hotel room and the boys were sharing. I threw all my suitcases down on the floor and decided on a shower. After, I went right to sleep. It was still the afternoon but I was majorly jet lagged. I slept all the way thought till the morning. I awoke to someone pounding on my door.

"Who is it?" I groaned rolling out of bed.

"Liam. Open up

I slowly walked over to the door and flung it open.

"Yes?"

"I was wondering if you wanted to see Niall today or tomorrow. His mom told us he's free today at 5ish and tomorrow at like 4."

"TODAY!!" I jumped on him.

"I knew you would say that. Why did I even ask? Well it's already 10 so get up. We are leaving at 3:30 since his house is an hour and a half from here. I'll meet you down stairs for breakfast."

"Yup." He left and I walked over to my suitcase. What to wear? It had to be something sexy but appropriate to meet his family. I decided on a simple peach lace dress with a teasingly low back and went down to mid thigh. I paired it with a slim brown belt and white wedges. I put on a little bit of mascara and some pink lip gloss and made my way downstairs.

When I entered the room where the boys were eating breakfast, Harry caught my eyes first. He did a double take and smiled. I walked over and sat down in the empty chair next to Louis and Harry. I piled eggs and bacon on my plate and started eating. I haven't had a good meal in at least a day. We made small talk and when we were done, it was already 11:30. I was counting down the hours until I would get to surprise Niall. Exactly 5 and a half.

"Anyone wanna go shopping with me? I need to pick up some stuff." I decided shopping would be the best way to pass the time. Louis and Harry agreed and we were off to the small shops downtown. We first stopped in a little clothing shop. I hit their lingerie section and grabbed some cute stuff to try on. I bought a few things and Louis got a new stripped shirt. Figured. Next, we stopped in a shoe store for Harry and Louis sake. Harry got new converse and Lou got some blue Toms. When our small shopping spree was over, we headed out to a starbucks to grab a little coffee. When we finally got back to the hotel it was 3:15. I rushed to fix up my hair a little and touch up my makeup. I ran and knocked on the boys' doors.

"Hurry up!" I yelled from the hallway. When we were all set to go, we were exactly on time. "Niall's house. Here we come!"

The car ride could not have been more boring. It felt like hours and hours. We listened to the radio and I stared out the window the entire time. What if his parents didn't like me? What if something had changed and Niall and me weren't the same. That brought me to remembering how I'd have to tell Niall the truth. I tried to assure myself that he would forgive me but I wasn't too sure.

After what seemed like forever, Liam pulled the car over and parked next to a side walk. I looked at him confused.

"We can't park in his driveway or he will know it's us. His house is right there." He pointed to a cozy looking house a couple blocks away. We piled out of the car and slowly walked towards it. What if he didn't forgive me? What if his mom didn't like me? I kept getting myself worked up about it. Every step closer we got, the less sure I felt about myself. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see Harry looking concerned.

"What if they don't like me?" I whispered.

"They will." He seemed so sure it made me less worried.

We were all standing on their doorstep. I nervously reached up and rang the doorbell. I heard yelling from inside.

"Niall! Get the door would you?" It must have been his mom. I heard footsteps and then the door unlock. He opened the door and recognition crossed his face. When he saw me, he broke out into the biggest smile I have ever seen. I smiled too and he threw his arms around me. I felt my feet leave the ground as he spun me around.

"I missed you so much." I said into his ear. There were tears in my eyes. I tried to secretly wipe them away but he saw.

"It's okay now. I'm here." He kissed me softly on the lips. I heard a cough and I blushed. He ran to hug the other boys and then returned to me. He grabbed my hand and led me inside. We entered the kitchen to see a short little lady surrounded by pots and pans full of food. "Mom. I want you to meet my girlfriend, Dana." She turned and smiled as soon as she saw me.

"Wow. You are so pretty. Nice to meet you finally." she said coming over to give me a huge hug. "Niall has told me so much about you. Seriously. As soon as he got here, you are all he has been talking about." Niall blushed and gave his mom a stern look. She only chuckled in response. The rest of the night was fantastic. We ate a ton of food and talked for hours about everything. Niall never left my side the entire night. He always had a hand on my thigh, shoulder, arm, or intertwined in mine.

When we were eating dessert Niall finally asked what we were actually doing there. "We actually have a tour starting in a couple days starting here in Ireland. We came to get you." Liam told him. "and to reunite you with Dana." He smiled at that. "Ok cool." Before we knew it, it was already 2 in the morning.

"I guess we should start heading back." Liam told us.

"Dana, you could stay here if you wanted. You and Niall should catch up. I'm sure Niall wouldn't mind lending you his bed. He can sleep on the couch." Niall's mom told me.

"Are you sure?" I loved the idea of getting to spend extra time with Niall.

"Absolutely. Niall can drive you back to the hotel tomorrow." Niall looked at me with pleading eyes.

"I would love to." We all said our good byes to the boys and Louis gave me a wink. Right before he left, he whispered in my ear, "Remember I'm the first you tell if you do IT." I laughed and nodded. And with that, they were gone and I was left with Niall and his mom. Tonight was going to be interesting.
