After taking a shower and getting ready for the day, Niall walked out of his room, to find Zayn sitting on the couch with Harry beside him. "Hello lads." he said with a smile. "So what are we doing today?" he asked.
"Uh-" Zayn stammered, taken back by Niall's happy attitude. Harry seen how Zayn was struggling to answer their friend, unsure of why, he answered for him. "It's up to you. I was thinking about the beach, or just maybe sitting around today, but whatever's fine."
"How bout we go out for lunch first?" Niall asked. "Alright, sure." Harry said smiling. "Louis should come too." he said walking to the fridge for a drink.
"I'll call him now." Harry said. "And you should tell him to bring Andy and Liam." Niall said cautiously, almost regretting his words, when the room fell completely silent. He turned around to find both Harry and Zayn staring at him, their faces filled with shock and confusion.
"I read my journal." he continued, "They were in their." And then the looks on their faces changed, to disappointment. "Sorry. I didn't mean to excite you." he said pouring himself juice. Harry shook his head softly, still slightly in shock from the news he thought he had taken in moments earlier.
"Are you feeling okay Niall?" Louis asked a little louder than he had meant. But Niall still stared down at his food, unmoving. "Niall!?" and suddenly his head shot up. "Huh!?" he asked. Louis chuckled, "Are you feeling okay mate?"
"Oh, yeah. Fine why?" Niall asked, looking genuinely confused as to why Louis would think there was something wrong. "You are usually the first done with your food. And you haven't even started eating yet." Louis said and Naill looked down at his food. "Oh right." he said before stuffing his mouth until his plate was empty.
They ordered their desserts and all chatted quietly until Niall noticed Liam's mood change and his face fall. Niall hadn't noticed he was staring at Liam until suddenly Harry nudged him. "Ow! What was that for?" he asked the curly haired boy. "You were staring." he said smiling, nodding his head towards Liam.
Without warning, Niall felt heat radiate in his cheeks. "Are you okay Liam?" Louis asked concerned. "Huh?" he asked looking up caught off guard. "Oh! Yeah. I just.." Liam struggled to talk, "Me and Andy are leaving in a week." Their table fell silent as nobody knew what to say.
Niall felt his breath catch in his throat. He felt his eyes began to sting. "I have to go to the bathroom." he said before excusing himself and quickly making his way to the bathroom.
Once he got there, he locked himself in the stall leaning against the wall. A tear escaped his eye.
Why was he crying? He couldn't even remember the damn boy, and now he was crying because he would be leaving him soon?
All Niall knew, was that Liam gave his a strange feeling. One that he had never felt before. It was a good feeling, and he didn't want it to go away. But how was supposed to tell Liam that? Liam would never understand. He was too perfect to be gay.
He gasped at what had just went through his head. Gay!? Niall wasn't gay. Or was he?
No.
No. He couldn't be.
Or could he?
Was that was those feelings were? Was he falling for Liam?
It was after that when he heard the bathroom door open. "Niall?" he heard a familiar voice ask. "Uh, yeah one sec." he replied quickly wiping his wet face and flushing the toilet before exiting the stall quickly and moving to the sink.
"Are you okay lad?" Harry asked, looking at him with concerned eyes. "I'm fine." Niall said drying his hands. He began to pull the restroom door open until an unknown force closed it. He turned around to find Harry, with his arm leaning against the door.
"Tell me Naill." he looked into the blonde boys eyes. "What's wrong?" he asked.
"Can we just talk about this later? I just want to go eat my dessert right now." Niall said whining. Harry waited for a moment, contemplating whether or not to drop it. He decided he didn't want to bother the poor boy too much.
"Fine," he finally said, "But were talking about this later!" he said letting the door free.
"Wow." Liam said taken back by the scene in front of him. "Isn't it gorgeous?" Niall asked. Liam only nodded his head. They stood there for a moment in silence with their feet ankle deep in the cool water, watching the sunset. "You are so lucky." Liam said out of blue, surprising Niall. "Why?" Naill asked chuckling.
"Because you can see amazing sights like this-" he motioned to the view in front of them "-whenever you want." Niall smiled, knowing that Liam was right.
You can too, Niall thought. "What?" Liam asked. "Hmm?" "What did you say?" Liam asked looking at Niall whose eyes were still on the sun.
Did he just say that out loud? He asked himself.
"Nothing." Niall said, "It was nothing." "No, you said I could too." Liam replied. "Yeah.." the blonde boy said hesitantly. "How?" Liam asked and Niall shrugged, "Move here."
Both boys were taken back by what had just left Naill's lips.
"That's crazy Niall." Liam said. "Your right. Sorry." he replied.
Liam smirked at the way Niall surrendered so quickly. Suddenly they heard a loud shriek coming from the right of them, they looked over to find Harry straddling Louis in the sand with Zayn and Andy standing behind them cackling in laughter watching the two boys.
Suddenly a big wave crashed against their legs splashing up their entire bodies. Both boys let out a loud yell and Niall fell back, being mauled by the water.
After the wave cleared, Naill sat up in the water, his entire body soaked. After a moment of silence Liam burst into laughter and the other boys joined, suddenly seeing what had just happened.
"Its not funny!" Niall said standing up, pouting. "Yes. It. Is." Liam said between laughing. "Oh really?" Niall asked, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.
He rammed his hands into Liam's chest causing him to fall back, grabbing Niall's arm, pulling him down with him. And before they knew it, they were in a water war of pushing, pulling and splashing each other.
It was now dark outside. The boys lay on the sand, the sound of waves crashing just feet in front of them. Nobody had a clue what time it was.
"I remember that!" Harry shouted laughing loudly. The other boys laughed with him. They had been laying there, telling stories and jokes for at least an hour.
Louis whispered to Harry before the two got up, "Were gonna go for a little walk." Louis said smiling before the two walked away.
"Okay.." Niall replied giggling.
Niall looked over at Zayn who was talking to Andy before he turned to look at Liam who looked up at the stars with adoration.
He studied the slightly older boys face. He loved the way a permanent smile was always fixed on his face. He loved the way he was so caring. He loved- "What?" Liam suddenly said quietly smirking.
Niall froze. He wanted to tell Liam everything. There was so much on his mind and he didn't know what to say or how to reply to the brunette boy. Should he tell him everything? Or nothing at all?
"Please don't go." Niall suddenly said with out thinking.
"What?" Liam said, his voice cracking. "Please don't go. I don't want you to go." Niall quickly said, tears beginning to fall from his eyes.
"Why-" "I like you Liam." Niall said, not thinking about what he was saying. "I like you too Niall.." "No. I like you. A lot." he said, letting the tears fall from his eyes. "Its okay Naill." Liam said wiping away Niall's tears with his thumb, only for them to be replaced with new ones.
"I love you." Liam said barely audible.
