Care For You ↠ n.h.

7. I'd better go

Previously on chapter 6:

"Come on! Get in." He says coming towards me. His cheeks are kind of red since it's freezing outside. He is wearing a black beanie, black skinny jeans and a zipped up black Emerson jacket. Obviously, he is wearing Vans like every basic teen guy.

"There's no way I'm getting in there with his weather." I argue.

"Fine, if I get in you have to do so as well okay?" He asks.

I think about it for a sec and then nod thinking that he wouldn't jump in the pool with such cold outside.

Suddenly, I feel splatters of water on me and snap back to reality once I see Niall playing in the pool. His smile is so big I swear it is going to split his face in two.

"Get in Adams!" He shouts.

Oh God what have I gotten myself into?

I unzip my parka and throw it on the lounge chair I was sitting on. I can already feel the cold air. I remove my timberlands and jeans and take off my sweatshirt. I'm just left in my white bikini. I can feel Niall scanning me up snd down. Then, he holds a hand out for me so I can get in.

I put my foot in the water just to test it and instantly take it out. It's like Narnia in there.

"It's cold." I say.

"Do I look cold to you?" He asks and I look at him. His hair is now wet and sticking to his forehead. The redness on his cheeks from the cold is now gone.

Before I know it, I'm inside the pool. I look at Niall and he's laughing. I instantly scream from how cold the water is.

"You should have seen your face when I pulled you inside!" He says not being able to stop his laughter.

I attack him with water and he does too.

He suddenly grabs my arms which makes me unable of pretty much doing anything in the pool. He brings me closer to him resting my arms on each one of his shoulders and I can feel my heart beating so fast. He cups my cheeks with his palms.

"You are cold." He says and I'm confused for a second but then realize what's going on.

"Told you." I say.

He gets out of the pool and tells me to wait in there for a while. I do so but then, have a minor panic attack when I see him going up the steps. Is he going to leave me here? I then spot his clothes on the floor by the pool and decide to wait for him.

After about a minute or so, I see him coming towards me with a towel in his hand. He once again, holds a hand out for me to help me get out but I get up on my own. Once I'm out, Niall comes from behind me and wraps me with the towel.

"Thanks." I say smiling.

"Anything for you." He smiles back.

Layla's POV:

"Come on, let's go back to the car." He coughs.

"Uh sure." I say.

We get dressed and head back to the car. Niall gets in first and turns the heat on rubbing his hands together. I'm still standing outside waiting for the heat to kind of spread a bit before I get inside.

Niall motions for me to get in and I do as told. I sit on the cold leather seat and cross my hands over my chest.

Niall takes his beanie off and leans closer to me, putting the beanie on my head.

"There. To keep you warm." He says sitting straight on his seat.

"Thanks again." I say and I feel my cheeks heating up?!
