3,000 Miles Away: Niall Horan

Chapter 19

Skylar's P.O.V.

" Shh" I hush the guys as we tiptoe into the room. We all surround a sleeping Louis and Eleanor in their bed. Niall began to softly play the first chords of the song.

"It's time to get up in the morning" Niall sings.

( Everybody knows the wake-up song so I don't really feel the need to put the rest of it in. But instead of Louis singing it'd be Harry and Zayn)

The song finished. Louis raised up throwing his hands in the air, " Time to get up." He yells.

" Yay!" The guys cheer, as I giggle. I heard Eleanor groan. I look over at her as she is burying her face into Louis' side.

" Skylar made us breakfast" Harry told Louis'

" Really now?" Louis raised his eyebrow. He sat up, leaning against the head board. I nod, taking my lip in-between my teeth.

" All I have to say is it better be good. If it's not I'm kicking you out onto the street." Niall said. My head snapped his direction. I playfully slapped him on the arm. Niall caught my wrist in his hand. He stares into my eyes as I stare back into his. There's a hint of playfulness in his eyes. He smirks before dropping my wrist.

We all stood there a few minutes not saying a thing. I felt a tickle on my arm. I looked down to my wrist. I watched as blood trickled down my hand and dripped onto the carpet soaking in. I brought my other hand up, holding it under my wrist. I looked up and everyone's eyes were on me.

" Skylar I'm so sorry. I forgot about it. I'm so so-"

" Niall it's fine. Stop apologizing and just please help me. I don't want to get anymore blood on the carpet, it looks expensive." I said, looking down to where a few more droplets of blood had spilled onto the carpet.

" No not really. It's nothing to worry about." Louis shrugged. I looked to Niall. He placed his guitar on the small seat in front of the bed, leading me to the nearest bathroom. Niall lifted me up, placing me on the black marble counter-top. He rummaged through the cabinets as I held my wrist over the sink, staining the white marble inside. I took my lip between my teeth. It was a bad habit I couldn't seem to break.

I moved my hand slightly out of the way so Niall could turn the faucet on. He wet an old wash cloth gently cleaning my wrist. Every now and then he'd look up at me to make sure I was doing fine then he'd go back to cleaning away the blood.

Niall finished cleaning all the blood away from my wrist.. He wrapped my wrist in bandages. Niall threw away the bloody wash cloth, coming to stand in front of me. I looked up to him. He pulled my lip out from my teeth, lightly rubbing his thumb over my bottom lip.

" I don't like when you do that." He whispered. I cracked a smile. " Skylar I'm so sorry." Niall apologized once again.

" Stop apologizing. It's not your fault." I say, rubbing my hand up and down his arm before wrapping my arms around his torso resting my hands on his shoulder blades. Niall wrapped his arms around me, kissing my forehead.

" So when does this bet we made go into place?" I asked, with a wide grin. Niall groaned. I had won which means he gets to be my slave. I'm going to milk it for all it's worth.

 " Later. I have something I need to do today." 

" Okay" I hopped off the counter going into the kitchen. The boys and Eleanor were sat around the counter/island eating the food I had made. Which consisted of; bacon, eggs, toast, cereal was an option and orange juice. I didn't make the orange juice but I had got it out of the refrigerator.

I served myself a bit of everything but instead of orange juice I got some chocolate milk. I took a seat beside Liam with Harry on the other side of me. Niall stood on the opposite side of the counter.
