A Trip to Remember (A Niall Horan/One Direction Love Story)

Chapter 8

Niall's POV

I watched as Carter drug the fitting girl away from my sight. I noticed now at how distinct her features were. Her legs were long and slim, but not grossly. Her hair was like vanilla and butterscotch pudding mixed into a delicious swirl. Even her large hoodie complimented her structured form. Her eyes showed so much emotion.. I wonder if she knew that.

"What's with her? Was she kidding about that ? She does know who we are right?" Harry looked slightly offended.

"If she does, she doesn't seem exactly excited about it. Carter knows for sure though."

"She did that freeze thing.. It was cute." Harry grinned at his mention of Taylor's equally attractive friend.

"Wait.. Did Harry Styles just call a girl cute? What happened to hot, sexy, fuckable, or- ?"I received a sharp pain in my shin. Harry cleared his throat and nudged his his head in the direction of the two girls who were returning from their hiding. I looked over at him and he just shrugged his shoulder, grinning like a mad man.

Taylor came back and stood closer to me than before. She raised her eyes to meet mine.

"One Direction, huh?" Her enthusiasm was much less than the average fan's, but then again, she didn't know who we were until Carter probably told her. She glanced back and forth from Harry and I.

"You know it!" Harry spoke. She nodded her head. Was she just not effected by any of this? Carter was fidgeting a lot. She knew what was going on.

"My best friend Maddie's a huge huge fan. She talks about you guys non-stop. Sorry for not recognizing you before. You're different in person I guess. Carter over here's a huge fa-" She was cut off by Carter's hand being slapped over her mouth, followed by a death glare.

"We already know Carter. No person buys those pre-teen magazines for the articles." Her face suddenly flushed with redness and her head shot to the ground. Hah. Aweh.

Harry's POV

She looked down at the ground as her adorable cheeks changed colour. Her fingers went and intertwined themselves in her long, flowing curls. The sun came put from behind the clouds, making the alleyway a happier place. Her hair was brown, but had golden reflective bits in it which made it shine in the sunlight. She looked up at me, her eyes capturing some of the light. She stood farther back than Taylor, but I could still make out her deep eye colour. It was brief, though the luscious brown still shone through. Her gaze fell to her feet once again. How captivating she was. I looked over at Taylor who was intently staring at me.

"Do I get an answer or are you just gonna be a mute and keep looking at Car?" Taylor's question made me go hot in the face. 

"Repeat the question please love." She rolled her eyes at me and I stole a quick glance at Carter before she could revert her vision to me. 

"I said: Why are you guys here?" 

"Oh.. Uh.. Niall?" I shot him a look, trying to make him understand that he needed to take over. 

Niall's POV 

Harry gave me the 'I'm drawing a blank take over stupid' look. Distracted much.

"Uh.. I just wanted to apologize for being a hazard towards you." That and I want to know everything about you. Where you're from, your family, your past, your likes and dislikes, your hopes, dreams, your favourite animal, how you walk , your laugh, what you want in your future. Just you. I want to know you. 

"Don't worry about it. I heal quickly," she grinned, flashing her teeth. Her lips were the perfect shade of pink," I didn't know celebrities were so desperate to be forgiven though."
