PDS (Book 2)

Chapter 55 - The Tractor

(Syd’s P.O.V.)

Paul dropped us off at my house. Only my mom was home.

“Hey mum” I said opening the door.

“Hey doodle.” she said coming over and giving me a hug. “I missed you.” I looked behind me and Niall was just standing there awkwardly. “I see you two worked things out.” I rolled my eyes.

“I actually need to talk to you about something.....”

“You’re not pregnant are you?”

“Again mom really? No I’m not pregnant. That was Paige and Darrian.”

“Oh that’s right. You need to have them come over I need to see this baby.”

“Mom her name is Darcy. She is the sweetest little thing on the planet.”

“What about dinner here tomorrow night. Does that sound good?”

“Sure mom, I’ll call the peeps and let ‘em know.”

“Did you just say peeps?” Niall asked.

“I did, and I’m not ashamed!” he laughed. “Come on let’s go get settled in.” I said taking his hand and walking to my room.

“Hurry back! I wanna hear about the tour!”

“Okay Mom.” I shut the door.

“I’m sorry my mother is so embarrassing.” he laughed.

“It’s alright.”

“No it’s not.” I laughed.

“I’ll be right back I left my phone on the table.” I slipped out of the room, my phone being in my back pocket. I only needed an excuse to talk to my mom alone.

“Hey mom?”

“Yeah?”

“Does Dad know that-”

“Yes, I told him he was coming.”

“Was he.....ok with it?”

“Although he doesn’t approve, I think he knows you’re making the decision that you think is right.”

“I don’t think Mom I know. He took me to Paris Mom.”

“When?”

“When we got back from here after the.......argument. Well, basically we got into another argument on the plane, and I didn’t talk to him for like a week, but then I guess we all had an ‘interview’ in Paris, so we all went. Then the night we got there, I went out with the girls, but they left me at the bottom of the Eiffel tower. At first I was totally pissed, but then I got a text from ‘Liam’ saying he was at the top, so I took the elevator up, but to my surprise there was Niall.”

“Aww that’s so romantic.”

“Yeah, but anyway, he comes over to me, and he says this whole speech about how much he loves me, and he promised never to hurt me again, and he gave me the prettiest promise ring, Mom, just look at it.” I showed her the ring. Her face lit up.

“Oh my that’s beautiful.”

“I know!”

“Honey, that must’ve cost him a fortune.”

“That’s what I said, but he said it didn’t matter, because all the money in the world couldn’t express his love for me.”

“He’s definitely a keeper.” I laughed.

“I should probably go back.”

“Why?”

“Because I told him I was just getting my phone off the table.”
