Niall walked through the doors of his first lesson already dreading the day. He took his usual seat at the back of the class, out of sight out of mind he always thought. His head was on his desk and his eyes were close to closing. He was exhausted, twenty minutes of sleep wasn't enough. He was about to fall asleep until his teacher's shouting him woke up, causing him to almost fall out of his chair. Niall sat up fully aware due to the fright and tried to regain a steady breathing pattern.

"We have a new student today" Ms. Brown shouted, trying to gain the attention over the adolescents in the class. Niall looked next to her and saw the same boy from earlier only this time, he looked different. He didn't have the smile that was on his face earlier. Instead, he looked kind of scared and shy. He softly smiled at the sight of the boy, buy it faded when they locked eyes. The boy's piercing green eyes stared into his own and he swore that the breathe got knocked out of his chest. Niall knew he was gay, he was always comfortable with his sexuality and didn't care what other people thought of him. The striking lad shot Niall a wink before walking off. Niall broke out of his trance and realised all eyes were on him. He went crimson and sunk into his seat. I never blush, what is happening to me?  Thoughts consumed him so when someone had seated himself next to him, he didn't notice. Niall looked sideways and almost hit the the boy in the face. He went red once again, realizing who it was.
"S-sorry," he stuttered. He mentally slapped himself for being such a twat and shook his head lightly.

Harry laughed at the redness on the boy's face and stuck his hand out, "Hi, I'm Harry."

Niall's head shot up to Harry like a bullet. His voice was like velvet and he had a strong British accent. Niall was shocked that he actually bothered to acknowledge him. Most people looked right through him, like he didn't even exist.

Niall gently grabbed Harry's hand and replied, "I'm Niall." They smiled at each other and didn't bother to make a sound or move their hands. Niall snapped back to reality when he heard a loud cough. He dropped Harry's hand and shook his head quietly to himself, looking back at his desk already missing the feeling of Harry's hand against his.

The day dragged on for both Niall and Harry. Niall was anxiously waiting all day for the final bell so he could see Angel again. Harry, on the other hand, was waiting to see Niall again. All day the blond fella was on his mind, clouding his thoughts.

The final bell rang after what felt like years and Niall quickly made his way out to his car. The car was in good shape, a bit old, but it was safe. Before he could get into the car, someone touched his shoulder. Huffing, he spun around and gasped. His breath hitched at the close proximity between Harry and him. "Hi Niall," Harry whispered. Niall stuttered a hi back. "I was wondering if you wanted to come round maybe? You don't have to, I just need a friend. I'm new here and-" Niall cut Harry's rambling short thinking that it was the most adorable thing. Harry just blushed and looked down. "I would love to-" Harry looked back up hopeful, "but I have to pick Angel up." Niall explained vaguely, forgetting that Harry didn't know who she was. A look of hurt flashed across Harry's face quickly but as soon as it came, it was gone again. Harry just smiled and ignored the weird pain in his chest as he squeaked a small 'ok' and watched Niall drive off.

Harry walked home with the rejection still fresh on his mind. He got in and went straight to his room. He flopped onto his bed and groaned loudly. What a great first day. His phone then buzzed in his pocket, notifying him of a new text. He groaned again but checked it anyway.

Liam: Hi Harry, me and the boys are gonna hang round mine, do you wanna come?

He slowly grinned and forgot all about Niall's rejection. Harry then typed a quick reply, not wanting to make Liam.  

To Liam: yeah sure text me the address!

Liam sent him the address and Harry asked his mum to drop him off at his house. This is the happiest he's been in quite a while. He arrived at Liam's and saw Niall's car parked outside, deflating his happiness. After gaining the courage to leave the car, he knocked on the door  and said goodbye to his mum. Liam opened the door and greeted Harry. He followed Liam up to his room and saw Zayn and Louis practically on top of each other. Niall sat near a door, a bathroom maybe. He was about to say something until he heard, "Daddddyyyy I finished." He looked around the room and saw Niall get up and open the door he was waiting next to. Harry was completely and utterly shocked at what he heard. "Angel is Niall's sister, Harry. She calls him dad since their actual father isn't around. If you were wondering" Louis explained, laughing slightly . He couldn't explain the feeling he got when he heard that Angel was his sister and not his girlfriend like Harry had originally thought.

Niall walked out about five minutes later with the most adorable little girl Harry had ever seen. Harry mentally cooed at the sight of Niall murmuring to the little girl. Niall then put her down and she ran over to Zayn and Louis. Niall looked up and locked eyes with Harry for the second time today. He was still mesmerised at the brightness in them. They looked at each other until someone interrupted them once again. Niall and Harry blushed, feeling embarrassed.
