I Wish

Just a friend

Niall's P.O.V.

I and Harry were sitting in the car waiting for Anna to come. Harry was hell nervous after seeing Ash's brother. He was continuously tapping his feet and fiddling with his fingers.

"Mate, I know how you feel. Its obvious. Chill ok." I said patting his back.

"I.. I don't understand what to say. Did you see him? He's completely against me. He would never wanna let Ash meet me again. But I love her, Niall. I truly love her." He said. I could see the feeling of hurt in his eyes.

Just then Anna opened the door and hopped in the driver's seat.

"Hey mind if I drive the car? The police won't arrest me right?" She asked.

"Yeah, sure. And by the way I'm the Niall Horan. I can easily get away from the police." I smirked.

"Oh, I thought that happens only in India!" She left out a chuckle buckling herself.

"What?" I gasped.

"Never mind." She rolled her eyes.

Her eyes fell on Harry who was looking out of the window.

"Harry?"

Maybe he was lost in thoughts. He didn't answer her.

"Harry!" She raised her voice this time.

"I'm..I'm sorry. What did you say?" He fumbled for words.

"Are you okay?" She asked.

"Frankly speaking, no." He shook hid head.

"See, Harry. I know how you feel, alright? And its fine. Ranbir is just very protective about his little sister because he loves her a lot. He obviously has read things about you which he shouldn't but now we cant do anything about that. He has that Casanova image of you in his mind and he's just worried about Ash. I assure you that he'll definitely trust you. Now chill." She gave him an assuring smile which made him feel a bit better....I guess?

She drove off to the Uni. It was only 8 so I decided to just ask her out. Maybe she'll say yes?

Harry started walking to her room where we left the others.

"Hey Harry, we'll be right back." I yelled because he was at a distance.

"What? Are you going somewhere?" She asked.

"We're going somewhere."

"Oh! Do you atleast have the courtesy to ask me?" She raised her eyebrows. 

"I thought you won't mind!" I shrugged.

"Oh wow! You can read minds! Well I won't mind, really."  She beamed.

Relief washed over me when I heard what she said. A huge grin spread across my face.

"Sounds great." I said still that smile playing on my lips.

We both walked down the street, my hands in my pocket and she was walking moving her hands. I could take a look at her beautiful face which shone in the moonlight.

"Are you gonna say something or you'll just keep looking at my face?" She said with a smirk and my head immediately snapped in the downward direction. Heat was rising in my cheeks.

"I'm not that kind of talkative person with girls unlike Harry and Liam." I said.

"Wow, that doesn't mean you would just keep mum." She said.

"Okay, tell me what are your plans after Uni?"

"My plans? I would just find a good research institute here in England and work there. But first I have to stud hard." She sighed.
