New Normals
Chapter Twenty
I lay in Niall's
arms, and slowly drift to sleep. Anything said after 1 am,
isn't somethings that was meant to be said in the first
place. As he tucked a blanket around me, I sleepily
whispered, "I love you Niall..."

The next morning, I wake up in my own bed, leaving me wondering
if it all might have been a dream. I look down at what I am
wearing, and realize that I had in fact done what I
regretted.
Emotion was like my drug, or alcohol, for better words. I get
drunk on it, if I feel too many things at once. So many things
were swirling around my head, I still had to put the pieces
together.
I look at my phone, and check the time, it was a little past ten,
they would all be up by now.
I stretch, and find a sweatshirt on a chair in the corner, in
Niall's scribbly penmenship, it says: "Put on some
clothes before you come out."
I laugh out loud, and slide it over my head, it even smelled like
him.
Everyone was dressed when I found them.
Louis, and Harry were playing a video, barely looking up at me,
Zayn and Liam were sitting at the bar talking.
"Where's N-"
His arms wrap around my waist from behind me,
"Morning."
"Morning," I smile back.
"Get dressed," Liam looks over at us, "We're
leaving soon."
"To?" I ask, pouring a cup of coffee.
They all laugh like it's the funniest thing in the
world.
"We're going to Zayn's house, pack a bag" he
adds.
"Spending the night?"
"Uhhh, yeah," Harry laughs.
"We aren't spending Christmas in a hotel room."
I look at the calendar, it was December 24th.
I laugh at myself, "I didn't even realize, I lost track
of time."
Niall smiles, and I start to throw a few clothes in a
bag.
I shower quickly, and change

.
I was determained to make a good first impression this
time.
Niall's face appears in the mirror, "Do I look
okay?" I spin.
He laughs, and pulls me to him, "You always look
gorgeous.." I blush, "You'd look better with
icecream on your nose though," he smiles, and runs
away.
"Niall!" I half scream half laugh, and chase after
him.
When I get out to the other room, I don't see him.
Just when I am about to yell his name, he grabs me from behind
me, and spins me around.
I squeal, and he throw me over his shoulder. I laugh happily. We
get to the other room where everyone else is.
"Are you two ready?" Liam asks impaitently.
I hop down, if Liam was in a bad mood, everyone else would be
too. I look down, "Be out in a sec, you guys get in the
van."
Everyone leaves except Niall and I. As soon as the door closes,
we fall into a fit of laughter.
