Taking A New Turn

Chapter 3

(A/N:  Short chapter, kinda a weird ending, i didn't wanna make this chapter  too long so I'll update the rest of this part in the next chapter, hope you don't mind)

“Oi!” Niall groaned into his pillow. It was far too early in the morning for someone to be poking him in the ribs. He couldn’t have possibly pissed someone off already.

  “Wake up,” an annoying voice said into his ear. Louis most likely.

  “What time is it?” Niall knew he couldn’t have overslept he had four alarms set on his phone. “And why are you jamming your fingers into my side?”

  Louis giggled into his hand. This had to be good. “Just get up, I want to go play footie at the park. Before practice, ya know.”

  The clock on his bedside said that it was 7:19. “Why are you doing this to me, Tommo? You’re never up this early on a Monday.”

  “Well there’s a first for everything,” Louis sputtered out uselessly. “Fine, that bird I like has her first class at 8, and I want to happen to be out at the same time. C’mon you have to help me it’s in the bro code.”

  Niall gave him a look. “There’s no bro code. But I will help you because aww Lou’s got a crush!” He pinched Louis’ cheeks cheekily.

  Louis slapped his hands away and forced him out of bed by the arm. “Hurry along then, it’s almost time for her to be out and about!”

  He had to love Louis a goddamned lot to be up this early for him. It looked rather cold out so he slipped on his Manchester U sweatshirt and shorts because they were going to “play football”.

  The icy air bit at his skin once they were outside and Niall glared at his friend. “I can’t believe I let you drag me into this.” Louis didn’t look distressed by his anger, only giddy. “What’s this bird’s name anyway?”

  “Eleanor,” he answered, his voice taking a dreamy like state. Louis shook his head. “She’s real fit and all.” Niall could tell Louis was purposely making his voice sound deeper.

  “If her class isn’t until 8 why are we going to the park to play footie? In fact why are we even awake right now?” His first class wasn’t until 10:30, sleep sounded fantastic right now.

  “Because by the time we get back it’ll be 8 and we’ll be all…” Louis made several hand motions. “You know, hot looking because we’ll have been out exercising.”

  Niall wasn’t exactly sure how that logic worked, but he was too tired to argue with his best friend at the moment. The park wasn’t that far from the university. It was cold and that made everything more challenging. “It’s freaking freezing, Lou, why are we out instead of in our dorms. Asleep.”

  “Oh hush you baby, you’ll warm up once we start moving.”

  He was right. Once they were finally running around the large scape of lawn that was the park, sweat sprung to his skin. He loved it.

  The lawn wasn’t big enough to create two goals so they lined their sports’ bags across from each other as their somewhat makeshift goal. They did a slight warm up of kicking the ball back and forth in between each other

  By the time they got an actual game going, Niall kept having to stop and laugh because Louis was purposely trying to distract him by shouting random things off the top of his head. “Filthy cheater!” he laughed, stopping to laugh some more.

  Their game stayed playful the whole time. They had actual practice later so it didn’t really matter. At one point Niall accidentally stuck his foot out and Lou almost fell flat on his face.

  “Horan!” Louis spat irritably at him. “Watch your freaking feet!”

  Niall giggled into his hand and it quickly turned to loud laughter. He was amused by practically everything Louis did. What could he say, Lou was a funny guy. After he caught his breath he easily took the ball back between his feet and dribbled it a little way’s across the field and kicked the ball into the “goal”.

  It was one of the many goals he’d already made that morning, but he was bored and he figured they were leaving. It was plenty past eight. What a waste of waking up early. “Yeah! Horan makes the final goal! Yeah!” He mimicked a screaming stadium.

  Dramatic was his middle name
