FOREVER [Niall Horan] ✔

Chapter 47.

“I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, I can’t do anything but think about him. At night I dream of him, all day I wait to see him, and when I do see him my heart turns over and I think I will faint with desire.” -The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory

Ana's POV

I wake up as the morning light hits my face. I squint my eyes before opening them completely and letting them get used to the sunlight peeking from the uncurtained window. I stretch my hand over my head and feel a constraint against my torso. Niall's hand is draped over me as he spoons me. I loosen his grip on me and turn to look at him. He's peacefully sleeping with his face squished against my pillow. His unruly brunette hair is highlighted by the sunlight, giving it a more blonde look. His face looks relaxed and serene with his lips a bit parted.

I bring my hand from between our bodies to trace his bare chest with my fingers. I slide them up until I'm cradling his face in between my palms, caressing his cheekbone with the pad of my thumb, smiling when I feel his stubble underneath my touch and thinking how beautiful he looks in the morning. I lightly trace his eyelids and temple before bringing my hands to his hair, softly scratching his scalp. He moans unconsciously and moves himself closer to me, tightening his arm around my trunk and pushing his face deep in my neck, his warm breath fanning across my neck, sighing right after. I feel his naked body against mine and it is then that I realise that I'm completely naked like him.

Last night comes crashing back to me like a hurricane and I feel the heat rise to my neck and ears as I remember the activities of yesterday. It was the most intimate feeling I've ever had with anyone and the most amazing night. I've never felt this feeling with anyone before and I've never been so close to anybody in any way, neither physically nor emotionally.

"It feels nice," Niall mumbles. "Don't stop."

I let out a small chuckle as I continue to play with his hair and scratch his scalp, tugging at them every once in a while. He suddenly pulls his head away from my neck, after placing a kiss there, and looks at me with a small and crooked smile of this that gets me weak.

" Hi." He whispers, his blue eyes looking lighter, with tinges of yellow and green, because of the sunlight.

"Hi," I say back and he leans towards me and places a kiss on my nose. I slightly giggle at his actions and close the distance between us by wrapping my arm around his trunk and pushing myself towards him like the way he was just a few seconds ago.

"You are my koala," He says before pulling away from me. "I need my morning kiss." He puckers his lips and I laugh, slightly pushing at his chest. "What? Kiss me," He demands and I shake my head, pulling the duvet closer to my chest. "You are going to regret that." He smirks before pulling the sheets off of me, exposing my torso, and moving to hover me. My laughter dies down and I suddenly feel very hot even in the midst of cold air. I shift a bit under him as I feel very exposed. He cranes forward and leaves sloppy kisses on my jaw and my neck before bringing his lips to mine.

He moves his lips against mine in slow motion and I cannot resist. I kiss him back and wrap my arms around his neck, pushing his mouth against mine. I let out a soft grunt when I feel Niall's hand caressing my collarbones and bringing his fingers dangerously close to my breasts but not once giving them attention.

He pulls away shortly and rolls on his back, pulling the duvet up again. He winks at me, the smirk never leaving off his lips. "What are we gonna do today?" I ask so that he cannot tease me about what just happened, for I know he is just about to.

"I would like to do you, all day." He speaks and my heart skips a beat and I feel goosebumps on my skin. My mouth parts a little and he smiles, probably getting the desired reaction out of me.
