My phone started playing Lego House and I got my phone out of my bag. I had forgotten I had left it on. When I saw who was calling I wasn't surprised. It was my mum.

"It's your mom isn't it?" Lexi said taking a drink from her glass of wine. "Me and Niall are here so that's the only other person who would call you"

"Other people call me!" I told her feeling a little embarrassed for some reason and started fiddling with my phone. I decided to answer my mum before she called the police. "Hi Mum" I said and looked over at Lexi who looked back satisfied with herself

"Honey, are you alright?!" she asked right away sounding frantic

"Mum I'm f-"

"Why didn't you answer?!" she interrupted

"I was-"

"Is everything okay?!" You had me so worried I-"

"Mum!" I screamed trying to get a word in before she had a panic attack. I heard the guys snickering in the background

"Are you alright sugah?" she asked after taking a deep breath

"I'm fine I'm just out at dinner right now so I can't talk"

"Oh did you go to dinner with Lexi how nice" she said avoiding my little hint to hang up

"Yeah mum Lexi's here… actually we came here with Niall and the guys in his band." I said looking down at my plate

"Hi Jenna!" Lexi screamed in my phone covered ear

"Ow!" I said making a face at Lexi

"Hi Lexi, dear!" My mum yelled from the other side of the phone

"Ow! Mum!" I yelled back as the guys all laughed at us, again

"Oh honey you should let me talk to Niall I haven't spoken to him in such a long time!"

"Mum I don't think now is a good time" I said dreading what she might tell him. She would probably gush over our childhood or have an hour long conversation with him. She might even try to convince him this was a date. I was starting to think I should've gotten a drink more like Lexi's. Some wine could've helped right now…

"Oh just give him the phone will you dear!"

"Fine" I said to my mum then handed Niall the phone without even looking at him.

"Hello?" I heard Niall say into my phone. "Hi Jenna… Yes I'm fine thank you and you… Yeah it's lucky right… It's too bad last time you both went… Ye- Yeah I still do…" He said sounding a little shy and looked over at me. Was he talking about me? I wonder what he was saying…

"Maybe he'll ask for your hand in marriage" Lexi whispered in my ear copying my mum's accent. I freaked out that Niall might've heard since he was so close so I had quickly turned around and put my hands over her mouth. Harry, who was sitting next to Lexi, started laughing very loudly and I really hoped it was about my hands over her mouth and not him having overheard her.

"Yes of course you should" I heard Niall say to my mum. What were they talking about? It wasn't weird that they talked, our families were really close after all, I was just worried she would say too much…

"Ew!" I yelled and wiped my hands on the bottom of my dress. "Did you just lick me?!"

"You know I hate when you do that. What did you expect?" Lexi said wiping the corners of her mouth on a napkin. Next to her Harry was still laughing and the other three boys joined in, Niall still on the phone with my mum.

"Yes we are… Well when you get back I'm sure we could all go somewhere…" Niall said looking over at me again

"Niall, can I talk to my mum now?" I asked him holding out my hand for the phone.

"Yeah, um Jenna, Kitty wants to talk to you… Yeah… I don't know…Um I don't think so… Actually I-"

"Mum!" I said after taking the phone from Niall. Our hands slightly touched and I forgot what I was going to tell her.

"Oh, hi dear. Where did Niall go?"

"I took my phone back. Mum I'll call you later we're still not done with dinner."

"Oh I'm so sorry dear I'm interrupting your little date aren't I"

"Mum! It's not… that… it's just… I'll call you later okay" Ugh why was she making this so hard

"Fine, fine, my lunch is almost over anyway I just wanted to make sure you were alright dear. Well, have fun on your date with Niall, darling. Goodbye" she said and hung up right away. My guess was so I wouldn't yell again.

"Oh did Jenna hang up?" Lexi asked as I put my phone away

"Yeah she said her lunch was almost over" I said going back to finishing my food but knowing by the look she gave me that she heard what my mum had just said. If she did then maybe Niall had too…

"What's wrong Mel? You're looking a little red there" Lexi said with a wicked smile on her face. And that of course made me blush more. I gave her a look of mixed pleading and rage which she of course ignored.

"You do look a little red." Harry joined in which didn't help

"I'm fine!" I said and looked down trying to avoid the looks from not only Lexi and Harry but the rest of the lads too. Was it that obvious how I felt about Niall?

"Well we're all done with our meals so why don't we just go home" Niall said also looking down which I found weird. But if we all went home maybe Lexi would leave me alone or at least I could ignore her calls, something like that.

"No we're having fun" Zayn said. That's just not okay! He hasn't talked much through the night and when he does it only makes things worse. At least for me, everyone else seemed to like his comment. Thanks Zayn.

"Yeah besides I want desert" Lexi said with that same smile on her face

"But if we go home now I'll have time to make you a cake" I said and watched her face light up. I have always been cooking, since I was young, and whatever I made was usually really good. I think that's part of why Niall spent so much time at my house during our childhood.

"Okay! Let's go then! Now!" Lexi said already getting up from her seat

"Wait you're making a cake?" Niall said, his eyes lighting up so bright that I got lost in them… Again… It's impossible for them to be anymore gorgeous…

"Come on! I want my cake!" Lexi said pulling me from my chair

After much pulling and tugging from Lexi the boys not only paid the bill but invited themselves to my house for some cake. We all piled back into the car stopping once at Tesco just so we had all the necessary ingredients. After getting flour, milk, frosting and all the other things that were needed we all piled back into the car. There were a few girls that recognized the boys and tried to get in with us. Unfortunately for them Lexi was here and she almost kicked them. She would have if I hadn't pulled her back at the last minute.

We managed to get home without anyone getting hurt. We all got out of the car and I opened the door. Inside the boys helped me put the stuff in the kitchen and then we all went back to the living room. I told them to make themselves comfortable while I made the cake, which they did with ease. They were very carefree lads who didn't seem to care they weren't in their own home. Can't say I minded though

"Do you need some help?" Niall asked as I started taking all the things out of the bag. He leaned against the wall in front of me and I swear my heart skipped a beat. Could he be anymore gorgeous?

"Um actually I just took all the things out of the bags so-"

"I meant with making the cake. I haven't made one in a while but I did help you a couple of times when we were kids" he said with a smile

"Okay, just don't eat all the batter this time" I said remembering all those times he "helped" when all he really did was stand there and watch me make the batter and try to put his finger in the mix. We both laughed at the memory and I did everything in my power not to think of the fact that this was only temporary and that Niall would eventually leave me again. He was after all a big celebrity. But now, looking into his deep blue eyes all those thoughts disappeared and I was just happy to be with him getting ready to make a cake. "Alright well let's get stared"
