Adrianna's POV.

"I love you." I watch as Niall Intertwines his fingers with mine, leading me into an unfamiliar ice cream truck.

Staring up at the night sky, My eyes widen to a passing, falling star.

I smile, making a wish.

Suddenly, Niall steals my glare and stares into my eyes, leading to my soul.

My heart skips placing my eyes onto his, studying all the shades of blue surrounding his pupils.

The next second he leans in closer to me, almost touching my lips.

Just as he closes his eyes, I attach my lips to his and wrap each arm around his neck.

As he wraps his arms around my waist, suddenly everything turns blurry.

"Is she awake?" I hear, what sounds like my mother speaking.

Opening my eyes, I realize it was just a dream and feel reality soaking into me.

"Mom?" I rub my eyes.

"Hi, you're awake." she puts on an excited smile.

"Yeah, so..Do I get to leave now?"

"Yes, but have you filled out the questionnaire?" I kick my feet, looking at the phamplet that I barely even finished reading.

"Uh, I didn't finish it, I fell asleep.." she gives me an eye roll, handing me a black pen from her purse.

Taking grip of the pen, I quickly scan each sentance and write messily, trying to get it over with.

"There. Done!" I drop the clipped pages onto the floor.

"Well don't throw them!" my mother bends down, organizing the papers.

As she balances up, she glares at the sight of me giggling.

"Funny, huh?" she responds, no humor clear in her voice.

"Damn it, take a joke." I gather my things together. She heads out of my room, waiting for me to get everything.

With my last packed bag, I slam the door as I walk over to the elevator.

I get in, forced to hold the doors open for my mother, running to me.

She slams her back onto a side of the elevator, trying to catch her breath.

Holding in my laughter, I press a button, leading us down to the main floor.

I nearly trip, stumbling out of the elevator.

Now, the sound of my mother's annoying cackle fills my ears.

I sure as hell glad no one was around to see that.

I immediately spot her car, as we leave the building.

I start to sweat, from the hot sun hitting my body.

Getting to the car, my mom rummages through her purse, in hope to find the keys.

I start to notice the panic taking control of her features, as she still hasn't found the keys.

Rolling my eyes, I glance at he stuffed jean pocket.

I pull the keys out of her wallet, causing her to jump.

"What are you doing?! Oh..You found the keys!" She snatches them out of my hand, unlocking the vehicle and putting them in the ignition.

Faster than the blink of an eye, she is already in the car and has the air conditioning running.

Getting in, I lean back into my seat, feeling waves of cool air hit my skin.
