The Moment My Life Started

Chapter 18

Briyanna’s P.O.V

We got to the TV station where the interviews were being held at and the boys were immediately whisked away for grooming. Danielle, Eleanor and I sat in a room beside the hair and makeup and waited for the boys to be done.

“Has Niall asked you out yet?” Danielle asked eyeing me.

“You really think I wouldn’t tell you if he had?” I laughed and rolled my eyes.

“Well, if you wanted to keep it on the down low you might not have.” Eleanor says seriously.

“Trust me. You girls are my friends, and I don’t have a lot of those. I wouldn’t keep that away from you guys.”

“Awwww!” They both say as they rush over to hug me. Sighing with a sad smile I hug them back.

“But I hope he does soon. I really like him. Last night when he was drunk, he asked me why I wasn’t his girlfriend. I told him that he hadn’t asked me. But then he told me to be his girlfriend, I just told him to ask me when he was sober.” I said laughing at the thought of last night.

“He is really into you Briyanna. Everyone can see it. Clearly you are blind if you don’t.” Eleanor said smiling. Just then the boys came in through the closed door. We instantly stopped talking.

“You girls don’t have to stop talking. Carry on. Pretend we aren’t here.” Harry said smiling cheekily.

“No thanks.” Danielle as Liam crosses the room to her.

“Talking about us Love?” He asks nuzzling her neck.

“Maybe.” She says as you could see her shivering.

“Then please carry on.” Niall says sitting down beside me and putting an arm around my shoulders. I instantly leaned into him slightly breathing him in.

“I think I’m good.” I said smiling up at him. He frowned cutely and pressed his forehead to mine.

“Tell me?” He asks me quietly. I just smiled and closed my eyes. I felt his lips press against my forehead and his arm tightened around me. I opened my eyes and faced the rest of the group. The group was engaged in a conversation. Well, all of them except Zayn who was looking at me and then quickly looked at his phone when I caught him.

“Okay boys. Five minutes before the interview start we need to set up. Girls, you can come and sit behind the cameras.” A woman in a head set says holding the door open for us as we file out into the hallway. She leads us to another room where there is a couch and cameras. There is also a chair facing diagonally towards the couch and the camera. There are 3 chairs for us behind the camera. Niall gives my hand a final squeeze before he goes and sits down clipping his mic to his shirt. Dani, El and I all took our seats and the interview started. 

The interviewer known as Carrie, started by introducing them and asking the basic questions that we had heard them answer time and time again; “How does it feel being here?” “How do you feel about your fans?” “Best moment?” “What is your favorite part of being in the band?” Then one specific question grabbed my attention.

“So Niall, we all know that you are waiting for your princess, do you think you have found her yet?” Niall looks at me and blushes.

“I think I may have.” He smiles. My heart race picks up.

“Care to elaborate?” The interviewer asks.

“Not right now, I still have to ask her out.” He smiles shyly. I can feel blood rushing to my face and heating. Danielle puts a hand on mine and squeezes it.

“Well we are happy for you.” She says moving on to the next question. The rest of the time I kept my eyes locked on Niall. He only met my eyes once and he quickly looked away his face getting red. I felt bad that he was embarrassed. I thought it was so cute. The interview finished up and they shut off the cameras. Niall made his way over to my slowly.

“Do you have something to ask me Niall?” I smiled sure of myself.

“Nope.” He said seriously and walked away not looking back. My heart dropped to the pit of my stomach and tears filled my eyes. Liam seemed to notice this.

“I’ll be right back guys.” He said turning away from the group and walking towards where I was standing. “What’s wrong Briyanna?” He asked worried.

“Niall said he didn’t have anything to ask me. He wasn’t talking about me during the interview. I feel so stupid.” I say hiding my face in my hands.

“Briyanna, look at me.” Liam says removing my hands from my face. “Niall likes you so much. There is no other girl. I promise you, it’s you. I don’t know why Niall said that, but you are his princess.” I smiled up at Liam the pain slowly subsiding but still there.

“Thank you Liam.” I said standing on my tip toes and wrapping my arms around his neck. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed the top of my head.

“Anytime.” Liam says walking me back to the group. We all walked out the doors together and into the car. Niall and I sat together but we didn’t say anything. He kept his arms crossed and his eyes closed the whole way back. Liam saw that I was still upset and gave me a sympathetic smile. We got home and were walking up to the flat. The group filed in Niall and I at the end. When I was about to enter the flat Niall grabbed my arm and pulled me out into the hall again as he closed the door and pushed me up against the wall he kissed me hard on the lips.
