Fall For You (One Direction)

The Beginnings

Novalee Mays

"I don't know about this Nialler.." I chew on my lip, looking at the people who flood into the club while Niall and I drive to find a parking space.

"C'mon Nov! I finally get home from tour and you don't want to spend time with me?" He pokes out his lips, and prods my stomach.

"Of course I want to spend time with you! But I was thinking more like we order in and have a movie night. This is too uptown for me." I try to explain.

"You love me, right?" He asks, giving me a cheeky smile.

"I love you Niall." I roll my eyes, chuckling slightly. Lord, he doesn't even know how much I mean it.

"Then you'll do this for me! Then tomorrow we'll have a chillax day." He playfully shoves my shoulder, making me laugh.

He finds a spot and we park. Then, he helps me out, wraps his arm around my waist, and we talk about his tour while walking to the club. The bouncer just glances at him and pulls back the red velvet rope.

"NIALL! I LOVE YOU NIALL! NANDOS!" People scream from the line waiting to get in. Niall smiles and I can't help but laugh.

"Ready to meet the lads?" He smiles. I nod. His grin grows as we approach the bar where the 4 other One Direction band members are sitting, making chit chat with ladies.

"Niall!" They call out in their gorgeous foreign accents. They all bro hug before turning their attention to me.

"Is this the beautiful girl who you have so many pictures of?" Zayn says, smiling at me. I politely smile in return.

"This is Novalee, my bestest friend." Niall says, smiling cheekily.

"Hi. I'm so happy to meet the guys Niall's been living it up with." I say while slightly waving at all of them.

"Okay, I'm gonna order some food so..Take care of Nov." Niall fades away into the crowds of people. Zayn and Louis leave also so I sit next to Liam.

"So.." I say, laughing a bit.

Then, a girl with butt length redish brown hair walks up, smiling at Liam. "Uh hi, my name is Dyll and my friends were sick and tired of hearing me gush about you, so I've been forced to actually talk to you." She sheepishly smiles.

"Hi Dyll, wanna dance?" He says, all smooth and such. Dyll is overcome with giggles as Liam takes her hand and pulls her away. I sigh, realizing I'm alone. I spin around in my barstool and order a drink.

"Hi, Novalee." Someone mutters. I turn, meeting attractive green eyes.

"Hey." A smile plays on my lips.

"I don't know if this is too sudden but uh..Do you wanna dance?" Harry plays with his fingers, not looking me in the eyes.

I take his hand and hop off the stool, pulling him close behind me to the dance floor. As soon as were on the floor Fall For You by Secondhand Serenade begins. He pulls me so close I smell his cologne. His arms are wrapped around my waist, and my arms are around his neck. It feels like my senior Prom, dancing under the disco ball with Sean Andrews; sweet but it's not the perfection you hope for. Harry sways us back and forth.

He leans close to my ear and whispers the lyrics, "So breathe in so deep, breathe me in, I'm yours to keep, and hold onto your words cause talk is cheap and remember me tonight when your asleep." Chills start in my head and flood my entire body. The song finishes and his arms still isolate my body.

"Harry.." I whisper.

"Oh, sorry." He pulls away, blushing a light pink.

I shake my head, smiling "Its okay." I brush past him and walk to the bar, ordering another drink. The last few moments circle around in my brain and I try to figure how I'm suppose to feel. That was wonderful, and I could see myself forming feelings for Harry. But it just wasn't that fireworking moment.

Niall walks over, sitting next to me. "Hows your night, Nov?" He asks smiling a bit.

"Pretty good." I say while staring at the floor.

"Come dance with me!" He chuckles, pulling me by the waist. I laugh as he takes me out to the floor and tries to dance to Starships by Nicki Minaj.

I wake up the next morning with a slight headache. The loud noises downstairs don't help the situation. Yawning, I stumble down the stairs of the flat I share with Niall and into the kitchen.

"Morning love!" 5 boys shout, making me jolt a bit.

"Uh morning..?" I say, questionably. Then I finally look around my kitchen.

"What the hell happened?" I call out.

Harry steps to me, flipping his hair a bit and I take that as him trying to ease me. "You see, we tried to make you breakfast. But, Liam refused to use spoons to stir the pancake mix so we thought maybe the blender would work! Then, Zayn was too busy staring into his reflection in the blender so he pressed the button without putting a lid on. Oh and Niall tried to eat the batter off the walls, but it made his stomach hurt." He flashes a smile.

I shake my head. "I don't know how I will survive you bunch of 4 year olds..Clean this up. I'm gonna get dressed and then I'll make us all some breakfast!" I command.

They all nod, beginning their task. I jog upstairs and change clothes. Once downstairs again the boys have finished and are laughing at each other's stupidity.

"Alright, what are we hungry for?" I ask, opening the fridge.

"I know what I'm hungry for." I hear a cheeky Harry whisper, and I feel his eyes on me. I blush and pull out eggs and bacon.

"Yumm." Niall watches over my shoulder as I start the stove and place the strips of bacon on a pan.

"Niall, honey, I can't cook with you breathing down my neck." We both laugh and he backs away.

"So are you guys doing shows while you're here?" I ask.

"Maybe a few, I'm pretty sure this is our free time!" Liam explains.

"Thats awesome! The whole summer off?" I smile. They all nod.

Soon enough, breakfast is ready and I let them dig in. After eating 4 of the boys go to the living room to watch TV while Harry helps me clean. I pull off my jacket and sling it onto the counter while scraping the pan clean in the sink. I feel Harry's eyes on me again.

"Novalee.." He says, walking over to me at the sink.

"Whatsup Harry?" I smile.

"Would you, uh, wanna go on a date with me?" His cheeks are dark pink.

"Sounds good." I say, trying to contain the excitement bubbling inside of me.

"Tonight..?" He asks. I nod.

"Sweet." He smiles to himself, rinsing the dishes off. I watch him for a moment before returning to my own work.
