Part 6

“Yeah, I think that colour could really work. What do you think Zayn?” you say, holding up the pink blouse in front of Summer. You have grown much closer to Summer and Jill in the past two days.

“I already told you, she looks beautiful in everything.” he shrugs, smiling silently.

Summer grins, and rolls her eyes, “don’t listen to him, he’s just annoyed he has to come shopping in the girls section. He’d much rather be shopping for himself.” she says.

“That’s not true!” he protests, but she doesn’t listen.

Jill turns from behind the corner, “I found this, I think Niall would love it.” she laughs, handing it to you. You hold it out in front of you, it’s a costume of a chicken. You look to her, your brows furrowing and begin to laugh.

“You’re right, he’d adore it.” you reply, holding it up to your figure and twirling. They both laugh.

“Zayn, does this colour look good on me?” Summer asks him, comparing the blouse with her skin tone.

You turn abruptly, startled by Niall who wraps his arms around you, hugging you from behind. He has a McDonalds food bag in his left hand.

You laugh, “oh so that’s where you were.”

He shrugs, hugging you tighter.

“You two are so cute.” Jill giggles, adjusting the paper shopping bags that hang on her wrist.

You lay staring up at the sky, Niall beside you.

“What a perfect day.” you say.

“I agree,” Niall replies, slightly glancing at you.

You’re hands lay in a bunch together, fingers twirled around each other. The clouds glide slowly along the hazy indigo sky. You can hear the snow crunching under you every time that you two move. You feel completely careless and the moment seems absolutely perfect. You almost can’t believe it’s real. It seems utterly surreal. The cold bites at your toes, but you already feel so numb that you can hardly tell.

“Can you smell that?” Niall whispers.

You smile, the air is filled with the smell of baked goods. You sigh.

“It smells amazing.”

“Well I’ll take you there after.”

You lean into him slowly and laugh to yourself at the fact that Niall could pick out the scent of food from a mile away.

“Race you.” Niall says suddenly, as he begins tumbling down the hill. You respond in alarm, quickly rolling after him. He laughs the whole way down.

“Niall, wait!” you scream, catching up to him finally. You try to speed up. Niall soon comes to an abrupt stop, and you try and stop also, avoiding colliding with him. To your best avail, you don’t succeed. You harshly crash into him, tumbling over his idle body. He grabs you and pulls you close to him. You lay your head down on his chest and smiles, your heart speeding. You can feel the snow that’s made its way into your jacket and soaked through your clothes. You shiver, and wrap your arms around Niall’s sturdy body.

You two lay in the snow for what seemed like forever. And strangely, you wished you could simply lay in the snow with Niall forever, and just forget about the rest of the world. It has been a month and a half to the day, since you had first met Niall, freezing in your stalled truck. You continuously think back to the day, thanking God that your truck had cut out. Thanking God you were able to meet Niall.

“You look so pretty in the snow.” Niall says, pulling softly at your curls.

You giggle and look up at him, “how do you know? Your eyes are closed?”

“I just know, because you always look beautiful.” he whispers, sighing.

You don’t say anything, as you can feel your cheeks burning hot. You absolutely love when Niall tries to be sappy. Even though, you’d hated it much in the past, he made it seem adorable.

You continued looking up at the sky, in a daze, and numb from the cold that nipped at your toes and chafed your skin.
