Criminal (1D)

Chapter 12

Niall and I walked around the streets of the outdoor shopping mall. Niall slung his arm around my shoulder and I had my arm wrapped around his torso as we walked and talked and laughed. We weren't buying anything, just window shopping. We passed a for sale space in the mall and I instantly pictured a small bakery where I would work with my employees to sell mini cakes and cake pops. Niall noticed me staring and laughed, wrapping his arms around my hips as he stood behind me. He placed his chin on my shoulder and tickled me with another chuckle. I turned my head and he kissed my cheek.
"What are you thinking about?" Niall asked me.
"Owning a bakery. Hey maybe you can help me out in my daydream bakery!" I laughed and he nodded. Then he turned me to him and kissed me. I pulled back in surprise and he looked me in the eyes.
"What was that all about?" I asked. Niall smiled mischievously.
"So me and the lads are going to have a year off in a couple months and we're all splitting up to have a break and have fun." He said.
"Oh really. That sounds fun." I said. Niall blushed and continued.
"So I was wondering. Maybe you would like to get a flat with me. We could spend my whole break together. We could see your family and you could meet mine. It would be amazing and-" I cut him off.
"Wait wait wait. Niall doesn't this seem like it's moving a little too fast?" I asked. A crease formed in his forehead as he peered down at me in confusion.
"What do you mean. I thought-"
"Niall it sounds like a good idea but I just don't want things to get too complicated." I said.
"I understand and it won't. I promise. It's just a flat, it doesn't mean we have to get married and have five kids." Niall laughed shakily.
"Ok fine. That sounds nice." I said and we walked hand in hand back to the tour bus.
