The Only Reason

Rom-Com

I pinched myself, thinking i was dreaming. "So, do you like One Direction?" Niall asked. "Yeah, but i'm not a huge fan. Your music is fantastic, the lyrics have great meanings. Some people are just too close-minded to see that, i guess," i replied passionately.

"Thanks," Niall said with a loud laugh. "Got any cds?" I asked, raising my eyebrows. Niall smiled. "Course i do," I pointed, keeping his eyes on the road. It was Take Me Home. I put in the cd. "I have to warn you, im going to sing really loudly, and i am very bad. So i'm sorry if your ears bleed," I stated. "I bet you are the best singer in the world, Stella Rose," Niall smiled. "Is that your final bet?" I said laughing.

'Live While We're Young' started playing. We blasted it and started singing at the top of our voices. "I win," Niall smiled, turning to me. I laughed.

We arrived at the movies and got our tickets. I brought money for popcorn and such, but Niall paid. "He's such a gentleman,"  i thought to myself.

The movie we saw was a romantic comedy. I forgot the title. Niall yawned and put his arm around me and look at me, waiting for approval. I let him.

The movie was pretty great. It was funny, it was sad.

Great.

As we left the theater, fans started to notice Niall. They started crowding around him.

Us.

I had always wondered what is was liked to be mobbed. Now i know. It was horrible. How could Niall stand this?

We ran through the crowd, and finally got to his car. We waited at least an hour for the mob to clear enough to pull out.

We we going to be late home. My dad was going to kill Niall. I texted my dad to let him know we were going to be late.

 "Hey dad, we're going to be running a little late. Hope that's okay." He replied a few minutes later. "Okay, honey. See you soon."

We continued Take Me Home. Than 'Rock Me' came on. We both looked at each other and laughed. He winked jokingly. "Don't get any ideas, Niall," i said giggling. He laughed.

We arrived at my house at 11:24. Not as late i estimated.

My dad opened the door with a straight face. "Thank you for taking care of her, Niall," my dad said, removing the scowl off his face.

He smiled. "You're welcome sir," Niall replied. "Great time, Niall," i said. he reached in for a hug. I didn't resist. I looked at my dad for approval. He smiled. "Goodbye, Stella Rose," Niall said with that hypnotizing smile of his. "Bye, Niall," I smiled back.

My dad closed the door and i headed up to my room. I laid on my bed, surrounding me with the hundreds of pillows i own. I texted Isabel. "Hey, text me when you can. It's important ;)" I sent it.

I stayed awake for awile, replaying the whole night. I smiled for the hours i spent awake. I thought of thousands of senerios in my head. Thinking about what could happen.

I know they never will, but i still hope they might. I kept playing all that he has said to me. Smiling every second. I sat there awake, waiting for my phone to buzz. It never did.

I couldn't wait for tomorrow. I had no idea why. The anticipation of talking to Niall again, maybe. I didn't want to fall for him, i've been broken too much.

I know how all the guys were like. At least i know how the all the guys i've met are like. I couldn't risk it.  I finally fell asleep, with my phone in my hand and Niall in my head.
