~Just In Love~

At first his eyes went wide at what I blurted out. Then he started chuckling nervously.

"What? What are you talking about?"

I placed my hand over my mouth and stuttered, embarrassed at what had just came out from my mouth.

"I..I mean..Look,I've never told this to anyone before except Zayn but since things kinda heated up just now, I think it's better if I were to tell you now," I said slowly.

"That you don't want to have sex with me? You don't like me enough to enter that stage?"

I quickly stopped him by babbling, "No, no absolutely not because of that! Gosh Niall, I love you so much. It's just..I don't believe in doing it before marriage. I don't want to do it with any random person. And I know that you've done it before and I'm not asking you to change because of me, but I just really want you to know and respect my decision. And I just love you like a lot."

I took a deep breath after ending that sentence. And I stared at Niall, hoping his reaction would be a good one.

"So now you think I'm some just random guy?" he rebutted.

I was taken aback at his remark, and was quickly trying to find words to explain myself. But then, I saw a smile forming in his face.

"I'm just messing with you baby. I love you. I love who you are and what your stand is. And I respect it. If you don't want to do it, that's fine. I mean, sure you're the first girl who admitted that to me and it's gonna be hard for me.." At that, I turned to look at him, at which he laughed. "I'm kidding...I'm gonna try this. For you. Okay? Don't worry about it, it's gonna be fun with you. It's kinda romantic actually."

He stared out to the sky smiling wide, as if thinking of something so beautiful. Then he looked back at me, and tapped my nose with his finger.

"I love you." And he kissed me goodnight.

I watched as he entered the car. Zayn peeped out of the window, and I gave him the thumbs up. He smiled and winked at me which just left me smiling and blushing to myself as the car drove off.

The next day was my Sunday off. I had wanted to spend it with Niall, Zayn and Pixie but I realised I had a lot of catching up to do with my assignments. So the three of them agreed to let me finish them off before I could hang out with them. I called Anne to come over, thinking that maybe with her help I might finish them off earlier. She was indeed a great help, because by 2 hrs I was done with everything. Niall met me in front of my door, and I introduced him to Anne. They hit it off immediately, and she said he had reminded her of her boyfriend. I grinned, proud of having Niall. I asked her to join us for lunch but she declined so Niall and I set off together instead.

I brought him to the place I always used to eat at, and we sat there telling each other about our past. I told him about how I grew up there, and he'll laugh about the childish stories I told him. Most of the time, I was just playing with his fingers. I liked doing that, because his fingers were so soft. And he liked it when I did that too. We strolled along the town, swinging our hands and just enjoying each other's company. Once in a while, fans would come and ask for pictures with him, so I'd help them take a few. I was sure the internet would go crazy with new pictures of him. We were walking near a canal, so I casually tried to avoid walking near it. Niall looked at me weirdly so I explained.

"Did you know that I have a fear of water?" I asked casually.

Niall shook his head,"I did not know that."

"Yeah, when I was 14, I was hanging out here with Zayn and this kid called Amanda pushed me and I fell back, and accidentally pushed Zayn into the canal. He didn't know how to swim, and he was struggling there. My first instinct was to jump down and save him. I didn't think it through, that I wasn't strong enough to support him, that I should have called for help instead of jumping into the water. I got hold of him, but he was so heavy so I was struggling too to keep us above the water. Thank god someone decided to come and save the two of us, because believe me, we'd both be dead if no one had helped us. I had never stepped into the water ever again after that."

I looked at the canal once again, reliving the scene in my head. Niall cupped me in his arms, and kissed my head.

"Why did that Amanda kid pushed you then?"

I turned to look at him and shrugged casually as if it didn't matter anymore. "She was Zayn's ex. She saw us together, and got jealous. She thought I had a thing with him. It's stupid really. She ran off when she saw Zayn in the canal. Hah."

"Well, that's dumb. I don't like her. She could have stopped me from being in this band. Then I wouldn't have met the most beautiful girl ever." He smiled, his blue eyes clearly popping out.

I blushed, and kissed his hand that I was holding. We continued walking, but someone caught my eye. She was tall and skinny, and had coal black hair that every girl wished they had. I stopped suddenly in my tracks, and since we were holding hands, Niall was pulled back. He turned to me, but I was busy staring at her.

"You gotta be kidding me. Speaking of the devil. Amanda Ferguson." I muttered.

Just as I said that, she turned towards my direction. I had wanted to avoid her, but she had seen me. She came over, with a smile so wide that she had never once given to me.

"I hate her SO much." I muttered softly to Niall, to which he laughed.

"Hi! Oh my god, Lila Simmons is that you? It's so nice to see you!" she exclaimed and went to give a hug.

She was clearly checking out Niall instead of actually caring about me, so I just played along with a fake smile. "I'm good, so very good."

"I heard you're dating someone famous, didn't think it was true!" she said, while tracing his shoulder with her bony finger. "I'm Amanda, nice to meet you."

Niall seemed unsure of what to do. "Erm..hi? I'm Niall."

She fluttered her eyes at him, and as I watched on, I just felt like slapping her face right then. Was she really trying to do that right now? Steal another girl's man?

"Oww!" Nialll exclaimed and stared at me.

He let go of his hand, and flapped it out. I guessed I was busy thinking of how to hurt her that I didn't realised I was crushing his bones in anger.

"Look, Amanda is it? I'm just trying to spend some time with my girlfriend here, and as much as she'd like to catch up with you, I really don't. So erm, yeah.."

He took my hand and dragged me away from her, not looking back. I was startled at first, and I saw that Amanda was too because her eyes were so wide in shock after being snapped off. Then I realised what he had done for me, and I smiled so wide. When we were clear of her, I quickly grabbed him and kissed him hard. I laughed after I had kissed him, and he blushed.

"Trying to be a hero for me huh?" I said cheekily.

"Well you know.."he laughed.

He looked out across the canal, and I watched him from the side looking so carefree. He realised I was admiring him, and I saw a hint of blush on his cheeks as he tried not to smile at what he had done for me. A smile formed on my face, and I intertwined my hands with his, and give him a kiss on the cheek.
