Ali managed to storm away from Harry as a new group of fans began to swarm him.  She hid in a tiny cafe a few blocks from where she left him.  She had no intention of calling him or going home with him, but she also had very little money and very little options.  She took the only option she thought she had.

"Hello?" 

"Hey Niall, it's Ali."  Ali said, uncertain of herself as she held her phone one to her earand her tea in her other hand.

"HEY! You okay?" Niall said, genuinely concerned.  

"Umm kind of.  I got in a fight with Harry and..ugh I feel so stupid but I basically ran away from him.  Now  I'm stranded at this cafe and I had no one else to-"

"What's the cafe? Ill be there in 10."  Niall said with urgency.  

After Ali hung up with Niall, she watched her phone light up with multiple missed calls and texts from Harry.  Each one felt like a punch in her stomach.  

10 minutes later pulled up in a taxi and sprinted into the cafe.  He was wearing dark jeans, a white shirt, a black jacket, and a snapback.  Ali couldn't help but think he looked beautiful.

Niall hugged her before saying anything.

"Thank you so much, Niall.  I didn't know what to do." Ali said quietly as she started tearing up.  She felt so safe in his hug.  Suddenly everything felt better.

"Anything for you."  Niall replied, still holding her.  

They both entered the taxi that was still waiting outside the cafe.  Niall sat close to Ali and she didn't mind.

"Wanna come chill at my place?" Niall asked innocently, his arm starting to wrap around Ali.  Ali thought about his proposal as she moved into him.  

"Yeah, okay."  Ali said slowy.  She wanted nothing more at this moment than to be anywhere Niall was.

Niall talked the whole ride back and Ali was thankful him keeping her mind off the Harry situation.  Her phone kept buzzing from Harry's repeated calls. Ali decided to text him real quick.

Ali; I'm fine.

Harry; Where are you? Im coming to get you.

Ali didn't reply to Harry's text, she just wanted him to know she was okay.  She set down her phone and looked up at Niall who was still holding her close.  Then he kissed her.  It was that quick, but "I couldn't wait a second longer" kind of kiss. When their lips seperated, they just smiled at each other.  

"I've been waiting almost a year to do that again."  Niall said smiling and looking out the window.  Ali gently, without thinking, grabbed Niall's face and kissed him. They kissed until the taxi pulled into Niall's flat.
