thirty-nine: movie talk

Later that day, Niall and I are cuddled up on the couch as Liam sits on the lounger trying to pretend like nothing from this morning had happened. Louis was long gone, having left the second Niall walked out of the bedroom. That had provided an interesting breakfast, all of us pretending like none of it happened. Niall had slept through the entire fiasco with the shower which didn't surprise me, he'd gotten pretty wasted last night after about the third round of karaoke. He'd passed out the second I had gotten him to bed and once Niall was asleep there was no waking him. We were currently watching some movie that Liam picked out, but I wasn't really paying attention to it. I was far more entertained just looking at Niall, admiring every part of him. 

"You're staring at me." Niall whispers, keeping his gaze on the movie. 

"Can't help it, you're just so distracting." I whisper back, reaching up to brush my fingers through his hair. Niall lets out a hum at that, leaning back a little further into me.

"Well it's weird, Harold." Niall grumbles, earning a soft chuckle from me. 

"It's only weird if you make it weird, Niall." I tease quietly, placing a soft kiss to the back of Niall's neck. 

"You're lucky I love you." Niall says after another minute of me staring at him. 

"I am lucky." I whisper like the goddamn sap I am, earning an eye roll from Niall. 

"Say it back, you fool."

"Say what back?" I ask, continuing to tease because it was always fun to do that with Niall. He never actually got angry with me and he was really easy to rile up. 

"You know what." Niall grumbles, turning around so that he's now looking at me instead of the television. I wrap both my arms around him, my wrist feeling much better after my fall. 

"I'm not sure I do." 

"You're infuriating sometimes." Niall says, shaking his head a little as I chuckle softly. I lean in for a kiss, only to have Niall move so my lips end up on his cheek instead of his lips. I pouted a little at that, tightening my grip on him. 

"But you love me." I say and Niall is quick to shake his head. 

"I don't think I do now, I take it back." Niall says, but there's a glint in his eyes that lets me know he's not actually serious.. 

"You can't just take that back." 

"Says who?" 

"Says me, will you two just shut the fuck up?" Liam interrupts our conversation, an annoyed expression on his face as he glares over at Niall and I. 

"Sorry..." Niall and I both say before bursting into quiet giggles. We settle down quickly though when we see that Liam is still glaring. 

"I love you." I say after a minute of silence, my heart skipping a beat at the way Niall smiles brightly. I lean in for a kiss again, Niall meeting me halfway this time. 

"You fucking better." Niall says once he pulls away, nuzzling back into my chest before letting out a content sigh. I rub my hand up and down his back, and I'm pretty convinced he's gone back asleep. 

"So do you work tomorrow?" Niall asks, proving me wrong on him being asleep. I move a little on the couch, looking over at Liam before I ask him. 

"Liam, do I wor-" I start only to have Liam let out the loudest groan he possibly could, glaring at me so harshly I was almost certain I'd catch on fire. 

"No! Jesus Christ, I'm trying to watch a movie." Liam grumbles, earning a soft laugh from me before I turn my attention back to Niall. Niall's smiling a little at that, shaking his head before looking up at me. 

"I don't work tomorrow, why?" I ask him, earning a shrug from Niall who's playing with my shirt refusing to make eye contact me. 

"I was just thinking that maybe... maybe you can come over for dinner at my place? Meet my parents as my boyfriend and whatnot...." Niall says nervously, biting down on his lip again after he finishes speaking. This was kind of new territory despite the fact that we'd been dating for two months and been official for one... it wasn't like I hadn't met Niall's parents, I had met his mother... but there was never an actual introduction. 

"Uh yeah... I can... I can do that, if you wanna do that..." I found myself saying, clearing my throat as I tried to ignore the sudden sense of paranoia. Niall's relationship with his parents was nothing like the one I had with my own. They actually liked each other, valued each other's opinions and listened to what they had to say... There was a very high chance that if they didn't like me, Niall might break up with me. 

So I had to make sure they liked me. 

"I'll let my mum know then." Niall says, looking at me with a smile again which made me feel a little better. We fall into a silence after that, Niall turning back around so that he's facing the television. Liam lets out a relieved sigh at that and I try my hardest to watch the movie. 

But my mind was somewhere else, my heart beating rapidly as I silently panic over tomorrow night.
