Sarah’s POV

I woke up to the sound of someone knocking on my door, which was quickly followed by the sound of my mother’s voice and the jiggling of the knob.

I rolled over and hit something warm. Correction, that something was someone, and that someone, was Niall.

How could I have forgotten that I brought him home with me in the early hours of this morning because he was still drunk and I wasn’t about to let him drive home?

We had made it back to my house at 6:30am, and I snuck him past my parent’s room where they were thankfully still sleeping and brought here, to my bed, so he could pass out for a few more hours and hopefully sober up some.

“Niall.” I whispered, nudging him in the arm trying to wake him up. “Niall, my mum’s at the door. You have to get up and hide.”

Niall groaned softly and refused to move.

“Niall!” I hissed and jabbed him hard in the ribs. “Get your lazy bum out of this bed right now!”

Niall’s eyes fluttered open and he smiled at me. “G’morning, beautiful.”

“Yeah, please be cute later, my mum’s at the door.” I said shoving him slightly so he would get the hint.

“Oh! Shit! Right, um…” Niall said standing up and looking around my room for a place to hide.

He finally decided on crawling under the bed and as soon as his feet disappeared under it, I walked to the door and pulled it open.

“What took you so long, sweetie?” My mom asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.

“Just tired I guess.” I said, forcing myself not look back to make sure Niall was fully hidden.

“Well Dad made pancakes if you would like some. Niall is welcome to some, too.” My mom added with a knowing look.

My heart started racing, but my mom just smiled at me.

“How’d you know?” I said smacking myself on the forehead.

“Please, Sarah. You’re whisper is a normal person’s talking voice. And the kid got up to use the bathroom earlier and your father saw him.” My mom said.

I cringed internally at the thought of my dad seeing I had a boy over.

“Is he mad?” I asked worriedly.

“We were teenagers once, too, you know.” My mom offered as her answer.

Niall had crawled out from under the bed at the mention of his name and came up behind me.

“I’m sorry if I caused you any trouble Mrs. Evans.” Niall said as his cheeks reddened.

“Don’t worry about it, Niall. You’re welcome here anytime.” My mom said and my jaw fell open.

Why was she being so cool about this?

I wasn’t about to argue it, though.

After we ate, I got a text from Eleanor saying she wanted to talk to me when I got the chance and I told her I could be at her house in half an hour.

I dropped Niall off at Perrie’s so he could get his car and then headed to Eleanor’s.

I knocked on her door and she answered with Cher right behind her.

Oh, so this was about what I saw last night.

“Hey, Eleanor.” I said with a bright smile as I stepped into her house.
