In Your Arms - A Liam Payne Love Story

Chapter 43

Nicole’s POV

“will you two stop snogging please!” Zayn shouts across the room

I kiss Liam one more time on the lips and pull away biting my lip

“it wasn’t me this time I swear! It just happened” I say grinning widely as Liam pulls me into his side.

We were at Louis’ apartment with the other boys and their girlfriends. Louis had brought Eleanor, Zayn had brought Perrie and Niall had recently found a girl he was particularly fond of. Her name is Zoe, she is really nice, I like her. We were just chilling and catching up with each other. Me and Liam might have gotten bored and started to snog but I wasn’t complaining.

“oh I’m sure it just happened” Louis says rolling his eyes

“like you and El weren’t doing it a second ago” I say

“well you wouldn’t know because you had your tongue down Liam’s throat” he shoots back

“enough! Can you guys go a second without fighting?” Zayn says trying to calm us down

“you’re right, sorry Louis” I say “sorry that you don’t know how to apologise” I’m not backing down that fast

“take that back” Louis glares at me

“not until you apologise” I say

“take it back” he growls

“no”

“oh for Christ’s sake Louis just apologise” Eleanor says, taking matters into her own hands

“but she started it” Louis whines like a child

“apologise or I’m not talking to you for the rest of the night” Eleanor says

“fine” he sighs “sorry that I got off at you for kissing your boyfriend” Louis says

I smile triumphantly “apology accepted” I grin

“and?” Louis says expectantly

“I take it back that you can’t apologise” I sigh

“are we all better now?” Niall says in a baby voice

“shut up Niall” me and Lou say simultaneously

“can we please stop fighting” Katrina says

“ok, so Niall. How did you and Zoe meet?” I ask turning my attention towards the most recent couple

“we met at Nandos” he grins widely

“no wonder Niall is so fond of you” Harry says

“that’s not the only reason” Niall protests “she’s funny, cute, has nice eyes, good sense of humour, well just everything really” he says looking cutely at Zoe who was grinning back

“well aren’t you two cute” Perrie says

“yeah he is isn’t he?” Zoe says still staring at Niall

“not as cute as you” Niall smiles

“question” I say

All heads turn to me

“how are you going I break it to all you fans that all members of One Direction are taken?” I say, I know if I was a fan I would be devastated

“I never thought about that” Liam says

“eh, when the time comes we’ll know what to do” Louis says brushing it off

We stay up quite late just talking between the ten of us. As the night progressed I thought about how lucky I am to have these wonderful people in my life.

It was about 2:30 in the morning when Liam and I got back to the apartment. I changed into one of Liam’s hoodies and got into the bed. Liam came up behind me and wrapped his arm around my waist, I snuggle in closer to him

“I love you” he mumbles sleepily into my ear

“I love you too” I smile closing my eyes and drifting off to sleep.
