Liam's POV

When Niall pulled away, realization has pulled upon me. I. Just. Kissed. Niall. Horan.

I blushed and looked down at the floor. "I'm sorry Niall, I didn't mean to. I mean, you're confused and all then I suddenly kiss you. I'm sorry. Please forgive me."

I heard Niall chuckle a bit and said "It's fine...let's just go home okay?" I nodded.

While we were walking home, I surprised myself by asking Niall "would you mind if I hole your hand?" Niall thought for a while and said "No Liam.I don't mind if you hold my hand." I smiled and I slowly put my fingers around his.

His hands were soft and small. And I'm so glad I can finally hold them, I held onto them a little bit more tightly.

We finally reached Niall's house and he smiled and hugged me "Thanks Liam, for staying by my side" I ginned and hugged him back "No problem Niall."

Just when i thought he was going to pull away, he whispered in my ear "the kiss wasn't so bad. Probably the best one I had" and let go. He gave me one last smile and trotted off to his house.

I just stood there on the sidewalk, my heart beating so fast that in any second now, it's gonna pop out of my chest.

I shook my head and ran as fast as I can to my house.

"Dani?"

"Liam? You sound....different. Did something happen between you and Niall?"

"Dani."

"Yes Liam?"

"Dani."

"FOR GOD'S SAKE LIAM JUST TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED!"

I chuckled and said "Niall broke up with Zayn."

"Omg. He did? That's good. Why? How?"

"Well he caught him cheating, with his own two eyes."

"I knew it would happen sooner and later. So is this the reason why you sound so happy?"

I breathed in deeply "We kissed. Dani."

I flinched as Dani shouted from the other line "WHAT?"

"We kissed! And we held hands but Niall still said he was confused."

"Of course he was Liam, he just broke up with Zayn, but otherwise, I'm so happy for you! You finally got the boy of your dreams!" 

I sighed as I said "Not yet Dani. But soon, I hope."

"Trust me Liam, people don't just let other people kiss you after a break up. I have to eat dinner soon. See you tomorrow, I'm coming over."

"Alright, see you. Bye." and I hanged up.

I lied down on my bed and stared at the ceiling. I've been smiling for the past hour. My lips are still tingling from the kiss.

The kiss with Niall. 

I blushed as I stared at my hands, still warm from Niall's hand. I stuffed my face in the pillow. Am I dreaming? I'm finally so close to Niall.

Someone knocked on my door. It was my mom "Liam, time for dinner!" I said cheerfully, surprising myself "Okay mom!"

I think my mom was surprised too because she was muttering something to herself and I just chuckled. 

Niall's POV

I banged my head against the wall. I just broke up with Zayn then kissed Liam. What's wrong with me?

Well at least I kissed Liam after I broke up with Zayn, that's less worse that what Zayn has been doing. Plus I didn't regret the kiss did I? I even tried to be sexy and seductive while saying goodbye. I blushed and banged my head against the wall once more.

My phone rang, I looked at the caller ID and groaned as I saw it was Zayn again. He's been calling me the whole time and I'm trying my best to ignore it.

I grabbed my phone and stuffed it under my pillow so that I wouldn't have to hear the sound of him calling.

I went back to my thoughts. Liam's lips were softer and more kissable the Zayn's. Zayn's lips were always rough and dry. Probably from making out with Perrie. I spat in disgust as I realized that every time I kiss Zayn, it's like I'm kissing Perrie.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps. I grabbed my guitar, just in case it was some sort of kidnapper or burglar.

As the dorr opened, it was only Louis and Harry. I sighed in relief and put my guitar down. 

Louis ran towards me and pulled me into a tight hug "Ohmygod.Are you okay Niall? We are never gonna forgive that jerk."

Harry hugged me too "We knew he was still cheating, we had a feeling but we just ignored it because you looked so happy.  We're sorry Nialler"

I hugged the both of them "There's no need to apologize. Shit happens right?" normally, Harry would have chastised me about swearing but I guess he let it go.

I asked "how's you know?"

Louis shrugged "Since your phone was busy, we called Danielle to check if Liam was already home and she told us that Liam told her that you broke up with Zayn."

I nodded then asked nervously "Did Danielle say that Liam told her anything else?" Harry looked at me in confusion "No. Why? Is she suppose to?" I shook quickly my head "No." Louis and Harry shot me a glare and before I knew it, I was pinned to my bed. 

Louis shouted "NIALL JAMES HORAN! WHAT DID WE TELL YOU ABOUT KEEPING SECRETS!" and Harry said "We're your best friends Niall, did anything else happen after you broke up with Zayn?"

I breathe in and said "well, Liam was with me when I broke up with Zayn." Louis said "and...?" I said, trying to avoid eye contact "he was comforting me and I guess we..." Harry gasped "had sex?"

I looked at him and laughed "No Harry!" Louis said impatinetly "then what did you do?" I muttered to myself "we...kissed."

Harry gasped again "You and Liam...kissed?" I blushed and nodded.

Louis and Harry got off me and started jumping around like some crazy teenage girls. I couldn't help but laugh "what's wrong with the both of you?"

Louis grinned "we knew something like this would happen." Harry said "we can see the way you look at each other." the way we looked at each other? I knew Liam blushed a lot but does he blush because of me?

Harry and Louis high fived "We got a new plan!" I looked at them "what new plan?" and they grinned "the plan to put the two of you together"
