What Did You Think Of The Last Chapter ' Who Are You' . Niall Comes into this chapter !!!
Chapter 2- Take Away It Is
The next morning I woke up to the 'beautiful' sound of my alarm clock, how can an object so small make so much noise. I use to sleep right through the sound and the only thing or person that could wake me up was my mum or dad but since my so called farther ran and my mum no longer lives at home I have no choice but to. After a few inhuman noises and stretches I found myself in the kitchen with a glass of orange juice and toast. Seriously though, in the first half an hour of me being awake I have no idea what I'm doing.
Looking at the clock I see I still had 40 minutes before the one and only, Greg Horan comes to pick me up. Calm down Charlie, calm down.After straightening my hair and putting on a baggy top, jeans and my shiny black Dr Martins, (my Dr Martins are my babies) I splash on some powder, eyeliner and mascara.

The day flew by pretty quickly the doctors gave my mum another 'deadline' as they called it. Why the hell would you call the date that someone is going to die a DEADLINE?! Anyway the date was 3 months from now. Greg kindly phoned up my school and told them the news and they are letting me have the rest of the time off and he also told them how I wouldn't be coming back to the same school after the 3 months, tonight I've invited my best friends, Phoebe, Elise and Molly to come round because I need to tell them how I won't be seeing them after my mums death.
My mum also invited Greg to stay at mine, our, house until we go to Ireland. I hate the way my mum and Greg are talking about living in Ireland as if it's a holiday; it's going to be a whole new life for me, living in a new country with a new family with none of my own family there. Of course I have family in England but none of them offered to look after me there to busy worrying about their daughter or sister or auntie dying.
When me and Greg finally got home after a pit stop at the hotel to get his bags, I showed him his room and picked up my phone to call the girls instead of inviting them round. Id rehearsed what I was going to say on the way back since me nor Greg had anything to say.
"Hey Phee?"
"Hi Charlie?" she said back as a question obviously sensing something was wrong. "what's wrong?" she asked."You know how my mums very I-ill?" I gulped hard before carrying on but I think she heard and butted in
"O Charlie has sh-"
"No-no-no-no-no it's not that. The doctor gave her a new date..... 3 months from now"
"She'll make it Charlie, she always does"
"If she dies. I'm moving to Ireland afterwards, to live with the Horans."
"You can't just leave! Wait..... The Horans? As in the family of Niall Horan?" yep, Phoebes a Directioner just like me.After I told her the whole story I phoned up Elise and she happened to be with Molly at the time so I killed two birds with one stone.
After a splash of cold water on my face, a quick sit down and slipping on my pyjama bottoms I started to make mine and Greg's tea down stairs with my phone on the docking station with my music on shuffle . As I was stirring the pasta I caught the top of my hand on the gas ring, I let out a scream and jumped back also causing me to fall to the ground with a loud bang along with the red hot pan that hit my hand yet again causing me to scream , yet again . Greg quickly ran down the stairs only to start laughing at the sight of me before helping me up
"you alright?" He asked sounding generally concerned
"Apart from a blistering hand and sore back side ... I'm fine" letting out a nervous laugh rubbing my pyjama bottoms with the palm of my hand.
He looked at the floor laughing to himself before saying
"Take away it is!"
He pulled out his phone and ordered 2 pizzas and a bag of chips which came to £15 , he put down the phone and I was about to get my purse out to give him some money towards it.
"No Charlie you don't need to do that, your letting me stay at your house, and the least you can do is let me pay for tea"

3 films, 2 pizzas, 1 bag of chips and 4 cans of pop later Greg was passed out on the sofa next to me. Just as I was turning off the TV I hear a phone ringing, I couldn't have been mine because mines in the kitchen turned off, looking to my right and seen Greg's phone lighting up with the words "Niall" written across the top. I tried shaking Greg but he wouldn't budge and as if on cue the phone stopped, only to start again 5 seconds later. Great, I had no choice but to answer it.... It's not like I was complaining because Niall James Horan was on the other side of that phone line. I picked up the phone slowly and held it to my ear...
"Hiya, Greg"
Oh shit it's actually him.
