Chapter 6
Niall's POV
I can't believe how good Lindsay looked tonight she looked absolutely breath taking. I mean she always looked beautiful, even the day I first met her when she was just wearing a simple t-shirt and jeans. There was something special about her, although I don't quite know what it is. All I know is that I love being around her, she's fit, funny and likes me for me, not because I'm in One Direction. That's one of the first things I noticed about her is that even though she knew who I was, she didn't treat me any differently, she just treated me like the normal guy I am. She wasn't using me for my fame or money, in fact she told me she wasn't quite to sure if she was going to take Harry and I's offer for dinner at first because of that reason. I'm so glad she did though because it led me to get to know the most amazing girl in the world. Although I have only known her for a day, it seems like I've known her for ages and I knew I already liked her. She's the first girl I have really truly liked since my Holly from back home in Ireland.
After taking Lindsay's hand and walking out of her complex, I made her put a blind fold on much to her protest and sat her in the passenger seat of my car. I hopped in the driver's seat and started driving to our destination. I really hope she's going to like it, considering I had to pull a few strings and spend quite a bit of money to get it all to our selves. I loved my fans but I really just wanted a night to myself with Linds and no fans distracting us. The whole car ride over we talked about what we both did today. Lindsay told me how she woke up late before eating and breakfast and just watching TV most of the day. I was jealous of her lazy day since I had quite the crazy one. I had to wake up at 5 for a 7:30am interview, then the lads and I were at the studio the rest of the day recording songs for our new album due out in a couple of months. I was so stoked for that to come out. 10 minutes later we arrived at our destination and I helped Linds out if the car. We walked the short five minute walk to wear we could be having dinner.
"I have a reservation for Niall Horan" I said to the man working there.
"Ah yes , pleasure to have you this evening, as you requested you have it all to yourself for as long as you want. When you're ready to leave just call us and we'll let you out."
"Great thanks so much" I said to the man and gave him a handshake before helping Lindsay in before I hopped in myself.
When we were inside I looked around to make sure everything was there before taking of Lindsay's blindfold. I walk up to Lindsay who was just standing there with a confused look on her face even though she couldn't see anything.
"Niall I'm not moving can I take this thing off now" She whined
I walked behind her and put one hand on her waist, while reaching up with my other hand to take the blindfold off.
"I'm taking the blindfold off now but I want you to keep your eyes closed until I tell you to open okay?" I asked
She simply nodded her head before I took off the blindfold. At the same time I took it off we started moving.
"Okay, 1,2,3 open." I said
With that she opened her eyes and gasped looking around in awe.
Lindsay's POV
I couldn't believe where we were. Niall had taken me to the London Eye and right now we were in one of the bucket's where he had a table for two set up with two glasses of beer, and a couple bucket's of food that said Nandos on it. I then looked out the window of the Eye to see we were pretty much at the top, and you could see the lights of London all around us. It was absolutely breath taking. By the looks of it, Niall had rented out the whole I just for us since I didn't see any other people around. I can't believe he did this all for me. Although I had gone to the eye yesterday with Sammy, I told him I always wanted to go at night and have dinner here but I can't believe he actually did it. I turn around to look at Niall who was analyzing my every move. I make my way over to him and engulf him in a huge hug.
"Thank you so much for doing this, this is the most amazing date I have ever been on, but you didn't have to do this all for me" I said
"Love a beautiful girl like you deserves the very best, so yes I did have to." He whispers in my which sends tingle throughout my entire body.
I pull away from the hug and give him a kiss on the cheek, which in turn makes him blush. He smiles before pulling out my chair and motioning for me to sit down. I take my seat and he starts distributing the food onto both of our plates. Niall had a mountain of food on his plate, it still shocks me how much food that boy eats. Throughout dinner Niall talks about his family and friends from back home in Ireland. I mean I am a One Direction fan, I love their music but I wasn't one of those fans that knew every single detail of their lives, so it was nice to learn about him since last night we mainly talked about me. I learned that his parent's names are Maura and Bobby and he was one older brother Greg and his best friends are Dylan, Sean and Darragh. He talks about his home in Mullingar and how much he misses his friends and family. He tells me all about the lads and things even the fans don't know about them like how Harry really isn't a big of a flirt as what the fans make him out to be and how he's secretly looking for the love of his life, how Liam isn't so sensible all the time and its even crazier then Louis at times, how Zayn isn't a bad boy at all and finally how Louis isn't the crazy immature one 24/7 like the fans think, that he's actually quite wise and one of the best people to go to advice for.
When we finally finish dinner, Niall tells me we have one more stop to go to finish off our date. He calls down to the guys operating the Eye telling them we're ready to leave. Five minutes later we hop off the Eye and make the way back to Niall's car. Once in the car, we drive for about 10 minutes until the car comes to a stop. I look out the window and notice we're at Hyde Park. I quickly hop out of the car and walk to where Niall is standing. He holds out his hand for me to take and when I do, he entwines our fingers and leads me through the park. About five minutes later, we arrive at an area that has a bunch of fountains and he sits me down on a bench. For the first time I notice he is now carrying his guitar with him. I give him a questioning look but in return he just gives me a big smile and kiss on the cheek before standing up in front of me and starts strumming on his guitar. I immediately recognize the song since its favourite song at the moment. I look up at him and smile before he starts singing with that perfect voice of his.
Settle down with me
Cover me up
Cuddle me in
Lie down with me
And hold me in your arms
And your heart's against my chest, your lips pressed to my neck
I'm falling for your eyes, but they don't know me yet
And with a feeling I'll forget, I'm in love now
Kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love
Settle down with me
And I'll be your safety
You'll be my lady
I was made to keep your body warm
But I'm cold as the wind blows so hold me in your arms
Oh no
My heart's against your chest, your lips pressed to my neck
I'm falling for your eyes, but they don't know me yet
And with this feeling I'll forget, I'm in love now
Kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love
Yeah I've been feeling everything
From hate to love
From love to lust
From lust to truth
I guess that's how I know you
So I hold you close to help you give it up
So kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love
Kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love
When he's done singing he puts his guitar on the bench next to me and pulls my hand so I'm now standing facing him, our faces only inches apart. Before I can realize what's happening, Niall cups my face with his hands and his lips come crashing down on mine. I'm startled at first but within seconds I wrap my hands around his next and dig my hands in his hair and kiss him back. Although we only kiss for a few seconds, it feels like a lifetime. Niall pulls away, way to soon for my liking and rests his forehead on mine, while having a huge smile on his face.
"That was the best kiss I've ever had." He says before pecking my lips one last time.
"Come on, let's get you home, it's getting late." He says while grabbing my hand and leading me back to his car.
The whole time walking back to his car, I can't stop thinking about that kiss. When Niall kissed me, an electric shock got sent through my body. I have never ever experienced a kiss like that, not even with my ex-boyfriend who I was with for two years. And when he pulled away, all I wanted to do was crash my lips onto his again and again, it was like Niall's kisses were some kind of drug that I couldn't get enough of and then when he grabbed my hand after the kiss, those shocks went through my body all over again. When we got in the car, Niall turns on the radio and pulls out of the parking lot. When his song One Thing comes on, we both sing and dance along to it while laughing our heads off. When we arrive back at my apartment, or flat as the Brits like to call it, Niall parks the car and walks me up to my door. We stand there facing each other for a couple of seconds before I crash my lips onto Niall's. I can feel Niall smiling into the kiss before we both pull away.
"I had an amazing time tonight Niall, thank you so much but you really didn't have to do that all for me." I say
"Yes I did, after all, the most beautiful girl in the world only deserves the best" I blush which cause him to chuckle before he leans down to kiss me again.
"I was wondering if you would like to come over to my place tomorrow to meet the rest of the lads, I'm pretty sure we have the whole day off and I know Harry invited Sammy and she said yes, so what do you say?" He says
"I would love to, just tell me what time?" I say with a huge smile on my face.
"Of course, Ill text you when I'm home, goodnight love, sleep tight" He says while leaning down to give me one last kiss, this one slightly longer then the last couple.
When we pull away he waves goodbye before I enter my flat and he proceeds back down the stairs. As soon as I shut the door I hear Sammy running down the stairs.
"Oh my god you're finally home, tell me every single last detail! Where did he take you? What did you eat? Did you guys get down and dirty?!" She says with a wink. I chuckle at her before telling her everything, from how Niall put a blindfold on me so I couldn't see where we were going, how we rented out the London Eye so we could have dinner which consisted of Nandos (which is my new favourite restaurant) and chocolate cake for dessert, how he took me to Hyde Park and sang Kiss Me by Ed Sheeran to me and finally how we kissed.
"Oh my gosh you kissed?! Is he a good kisser? Details right now missy!" She screams.
"Yes he is an amazing kisser, the best kiss I've ever had and that's all you're getting cause I don't kiss and tell!" I say back with a grin.
"Ugh fine, but oh Harry told me that Niall invited you over tomorrow to meet the boys as well, and says Niall will text with the time once he asks Liam cause apparently Eleanor, Danielle and Perrie might join too." She squeals.
"Ouuu that's so exciting I actually can't wait" I squeal back.
I was pretty excited. From what Niall told me, the girls we're really friendly and from what he told me, I could see us being friends. What does this mean for Niall and I though? I mean the other 3 girls are obviously Louis, Liam and Zayn girlfriends but Sammy and I are just friends with the boys right now. Yeah Niall and I kissed, but we've only been on one date. I knew he was falling for Niall and falling fast, did he feel the same? My thoughts were interrupt by Sammy punching me in the arm.
"Oww what was that for?" I asked
"I asked if you wanted to curl up on the couch and watch the Notebook with some popcorn but you were staring off into space. That must have been one hell of a kiss eh?" She smirks and winks at me.
"Haha very funny, yeah that sounds great, you pop in the movie and make the popcorn while I go and get changed?" I say.
She agrees so I run up to my room and quickly change into to boxer PJ shorts, a pink tank top and throw my Toronto Maple Leafs hoddie on top (there a professional hockey team in the NHL in case you were wondering.) I go into the bathroom and wash my face and brush my hair before throwing it up into a messy bun on the top of my head. Before walking downstairs I plug my phone in and I notice I have one message from Niall
From Niall
Hey love, I had a wonderful time tonight and just wanted to say you looked absolutely stunning in case I didn't tell you enough already ;) I talked to Liam and he said the girls are coming over around 12, we'll have lunch then just chum around. Anyway, have a goodnight, sleep tight and I cant wait to see you tomorrow J 3
Niall xxxx
I smile at the text before sending a quick one back saying:
To Niall
I also had an amazing time tonight, thanks so much again. Sammy and I will be there for 12, I can't wait to meet the boys and I guess to see you again too ;) Night sleep tightJ3
Linds xxxx
I put my phone back down before heading back down stairs. When I get back downstairs, Sammy was already on the couch with the movie popped in and the bowl of popcorn on her lap. I sit down next to her before she presses play. 2 hours later, the movie is over and Sammy and I are both balling our eyes out. I have seen this movie 500 times and still I cry at the ending every single time I see it. It's now 12:00 at night so Sammy and I say good night before heading to out rooms. I quickly brush my teeth before hopping into bed. Before I turn off my light I log onto to Twitter and see I have two new notifications saying that both Niall and Harry and now following me. I scroll through my tweets when one in particular catches my attention. It's a tweet from Niall that says:
NiallOfficial: Amazing night tonight with someone special. Can't wait for tomorrow, its going to be another great day! J
I favourite and retweet his tweet before logging off of twitter. I quickly open Facebook and respond to a few of my friend's posts asking how London was before logging out of that as well. As I'm about to put my phone back on the desk, I notice my background picture, which is now the picture of Niall and I from yesterday. Niall must have changed that. My smile grows even bigger and I stare at it for a few seconds before placing my phone down and turning off my light. Before I drift off to sleep I realize something.
I'm falling in love with Niall Horan, and I'm falling fast.
