Naturally

Chapter 36

"Niall." I whispered, gently shaking the arm he was holding me with.

"Hm..." he groaned wrapping his arm even tighter around me.

"We have to get ready for Liam's party." I moaned into his bicep.

"Just a few more minutes..."

"No because then we'll never move." I laughed yanking his arm up.

Just as he gained his balance he pulled me to his chest and kissed my forehead. "Are you trying to play me?"

"For what?"

"Well its a three letter word..." he sarcastically raised a brow before looking back down at me.

"Hm... maybe later." I winked at him as I turned around to walk out of his room.

"I better." he slapped my butt before throwing me over his shoulder and running me down the stairs.

"Niall, you have to stop doing that!" I complained as he set me down on my feet.

"No, its cute." he smiled reaching into the fridge.

"So do you know who all is coming today?" I asked him, reaching in the cabinet for a mug.

"His parents, his sisters, Danielle, Andy, Greg... us." he shrugged sliding a tea packet towards me as he reached for his own mug.

I reached for my phone at the sound of the vibration and sarcastically laughed at Danny's text before looking at Niall.

"And I guess Danny, and the others are coming too." I let out a terrified laugh as Niall looked at me.

"And by others you mean..." his voice lowered.

I gently bit my lip before he slammed his fist on the counter. "God dammit."

"C'mon, you and Danny seem pretty cool."

"Its not him I'm worried about." He groaned, collapsing into a kitchen chair.

I sighed before walking over to stand in front of him and gently holding his face in my hands.

"I know, but you've been able to control yourself before. Hopefully Lou-" his face immediately tensed in between my hands.

"Hopefully Louis won't be immature and ruins Liam's party. I'll make sure Louis doesn't stir up trouble." I ran my fingers through his soft hair to calm his tension.

"If he were to lay one finger on you I swear to God..."

"If he does, I'll handle it. I need you to trust me." I ran my thumb across his bottom lip, trying to tease him so he'd agree with me.

He shuddered at my sensitive touch before nodding and kissing my knuckles. "I can try."

"Thats all I wanted to hear." I smiled attaching my lips with his.

"You're very..." he mumbled in the kiss.

"Very what?" I raised a brow.

"Conciliatory."

"That I am." I smiled patting his shoulders.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"Getting ready, theres a celebration today remember?" I threw him a wink as I closed my bedroom door.

"If you wink at me like that one more time I am fucking you on the kitchen table!" he shouted through my door.

I felt myself tense at his comment, knowing how amazing that sounds right now. I heard quick footsteps go up the stairs and quickly back down. "What are you doing?" I asked, grabbing my favorite pair of skinny jeans and cardigan.
