He nodded and we walked back towards the house. This time I wasn’t so lucky with the clumsiness. We were getting close to the house when I tripped over a crack in the sidewalk. As I stumbled forward, I felt his hand grab my arm and pull me back up. As he pulled me up, I twisted around so I was facing him. My other hand landed on his chest as I glanced up to see him looking down at me, laughing. I smiled, “What are you laughing at?”

“You,” he said. “You’re always doing something clumsy.” I blushed, but I knew he was right. There was always something happening to me. I looked at the ground, my arm still in his hand. He turned me around and slid his arm around my waist before we started walking back towards the house. “Maybe I should just hold on to you until we get back.” We turned the corner to walk up the path to the house and I noticed the lights were all off. Iris and Niall must have already gone to bed. We walked in as quietly as we could. Zayn put our jackets in the closet and we went upstairs. We stopped outside my room. I reached inside and turned the light on.

“Thanks for walking with me. I don’t know what I would have done if he had actually shown up. Normally I think about things like that.”

“No problem. I didn’t want to see you or Iris upset or hurt, so I felt like it was the right thing to do.” He said smiling. “I wish he hadn’t done that to you, though.” He said talking about my eye, which had bruised a lot more since to pool.

“Me too,” I nodded, “but he won’t have the chance to again. I don’t plan on going back.” I said smiling. He smiled and leaned in to kiss my cheek.

“Let’s hope not.” He said with a wink. He turned to go to his room, “Goodnight”

“Goodnight” I replied, as I turned to go in to my room. I grabbed my pajamas and laid them on the bed to change. I took off my shirt and pants and put them in my clothes basket near my bed. I turned back to the bed to get my pajama pants to put on. As I pulled them up, I hear d the bathroom door open and him say “Oh, shit! Sorry” I turned to see him covering his eyes, blushing.

I pulled my top on quickly and said, “What’s up?”

He laughed and said, “Well, I was just coming to tell you that if you need anything, you can just come get me. My room is on the other side of the bathroom. There’s a connecting door.”

“Oh, I didn’t even notice that when I was in there earlier. Thanks.” He nodded. “See you tomorrow” I said as I turned to go back over to my bed and he walked back into his room. The next morning, I woke up before everyone else. I decided to make breakfast, so I headed down to the kitchen to get started. I decided on eggs, bacon, pancakes, and tea. I got everything cooked before I heard someone coming downstairs. Niall walked in the kitchen looking sleepy.

“Morning” I said with a smile.

“Morning” he said yawning. “What are you doing up so early”

“Well, I actually slept through the night, so I got rest and woke up” I laughed. He nodded. “Tea?”

“Of course” I turned to the stove and put the kettle on.

“While we are waiting for the kettle, I need to ask you something”

“Alright, let’s have it” he laughed.

“On my way over here yesterday, I heard this song on the radio. Brought me to tears actually, cause of the whole Ryan thing. It’s an amazing song.”

“Yeah? What is it” he asked, curious.

“This one” I said turning my laptop around and pressing play. He laughed and I said, “Why didn’t you tell me about this?”
