Nerd With Blonde Hair (Boyxboy)

Chapter 13

*Niall*

"W-what?" I said softly, taking my hands out of yours.

"A secret Niall. I'm not sure I can do it right now.. Come out. I want to date you, I like you. A lot. But with everything going on. I don't know that I can tell anyone right now. Other then my family." Harry said, looking at me in the eyes.

I looked away, too embarrassed. To think, he actually liked me. Sighing, I looked at him.

"Fine, I'll date you. Does this mean we can go on dates?" I said, hopeful.

"Only to each other's houses." He said, getting out of the car. I frowned, but nodded. I walked with him to his front door, walking in and being met by the smell of vanilla and pot roast.

"Harry, darling is that you?" A women's voice called out. A women, mid forties, came out from the kitchen, wiping her hands on a towel.

"Hi mom, this is Niall." Harry said, as he hugged his mother. I soon regretted not showering after football.

"Niall!! This is the famous Niall Horan?" Mrs. Styles said as she hugged me. I chuckled and hugged back.

"Hi Mrs. Styles, I'm Niall. Sorry I smell, football." I smiled and pulled away from the hug.

"Oh please, call my Anne. Harry take Niall to wash up. Dinner in thirty." Anne said, walking back to the kitchen.

Harry grabbed my hand, pulling me up the stairs. I looked at the pictures on the wall. Some of Harry, Harry and a girl, and Harry and his mother.

"Who's the girl?" I asked, stopping at the top stairs, looking at the girl who had been in most the pictures.

"Gemma, my older sister." Harry said, opening the closet door and pulling out a towel and wash cloth.

"The bathroom is here. I'll get you some of my clothes." Harry said, pointing to a door. I opened the door, turning on the light and looking at myself in the mirror.

Harry came up behind me, putting his chin on the top of my head.

"Here you go Ni." Harry said, handing me some clothes. Sweats and a jumper. I'm going to wear Harry's clothes. I had to practically not scream.

"My room is across the hall, if I'm not in here, I'm downstairs." Harry said, kissing my cheek. I blushed and shut the door, locking it.

After my shower I went into Harry's room, looking around for him. He wasn't here, so he must be downstairs.

Walking downstairs I came into the kitchen, Harry sitting in the counter, watching his mom. I smiled shyly and looked at him.

"Niall just in time, let's eat?" Anne said, going to the table. I nodded and sat beside her, letting Harry take the head of the table.

We laughed and talked the whole dinner time. Talked about Harry's past and even mine. We even told his mom we were dating, which she was very excited about. My mom and dad already knew about my crush on Harry, all I had to do was tell them.

"Well it's getting late, Harry will you take me home please?" I said, putting my plate in the sink.

"Of course." He said, grabbing his keys.

"It was nice meeting you, Anne. I'll see you again soon." I said, hugging her.

"It's nice meeting you too Niall. Come again honey. You're welcome anytime." Anne said, walking with us outside. I got into the car, waving at her as we pulled out of the driveway.

"I love your mom." I said softly, smiling.

"She's quite the character." Harry said, chuckling.

"Harry?" I said, looking at him as he drove.

"Yeah babe?" He said, not taking his eyes off the road.

"About the other night. I don't act like that, I'm not the one to have one night stands. If you're only with me so you don't hurt my feelings. Please don't be. It would hurt me less if you just didn't date me.." I rambled.

Harry stopped at a red light, looking at me.

"Niall, I really like you okay? I'm not with you because of pity. I really really like you." He said, grabbing my hand and driving again.

Nodding I intertwined our fingers.

"I really, really like you too." I said, smiling.

"So it has to be a secret?" Louis asked, the next day at school. I nodded and ate my apple, looking at Louis and Liam.

"Yeah, I mean. Of course it bothers me. At least I can tell you guys and my family. Just don't tell anyone. Please? I don't want to loose Harry." I said, looking at them both seriously.

"We won't tell anyone, we just don't like the idea of it." Liam said, looking at Louis as he nodded. Tuning them out I looked at Harry. He looked really good today. Dark wash jeans, black v neck, and a dark green bandana wrapped around his head. I guess he could sense someone staring because he turned around and looked at me. I smiled and suspected a smile back.

All I got was a glare.

This is going to be harder then I thought.
