41: Airplanes are so Emotional

Ellie's P.O.V

I woke up to Niall's sweet laughter.

I only had to squint my eyes to see that he was watching my first reaction to him.

"You know... I still think you're amazing." I say as the second video ends.

"Oh... Were you watching that...?" He nervously asks.

I bring my hand up to his cheek.

"Yeah. I never believed I'd ever get the chance to meet you..." I smile.

His phone vibrates and Liam apparently has texted him.

Here's this 4 u

Without a word, Niall hands me an earbud, takes one for himself and pops it in.

"She has this huge crush on him too, Liam." I recognize my mom's voice.

Oh dear... Not this.

"But it's the cutest thing. She's like a little lovesick puppy." She giggles.

Maybe I did used to have a huge crush on Niall. And maybe I did act like a lovesick puppy. But it passed... Right?

"I hate that she's right." I sigh, hoping Niall doesn't notice.

But he does. And his eyes widen the second he hears the words come from my mouth.

"Look, sure I used to have a little crush on you. But I got over it. Like I said, I didn't ever think there was the slightest chance I would ever meet you." I breathe out.

I sit back up in my seat and try to process this new feeling running through my veins. I have butterflies in my stomach. Butterflies!

What the hell is wrong with me?! I don't have a crush on Niall and I didn't even know him as a person when I did!

Or do I...?

No! No. I don't. Besides, crushes are stupid. Love is stupid. The last time I loved a guy, he tried to kill me every day of my life. My father tried to kill me every day of my life!

Niall gets up and walks somewhere else and I see Liam cautiously step over to my seat.

"Uh... What's up?" He nervously asks.

"Liam... What's wrong with me? I don't know what I'm feeling but I hate it! I hate it!" I frustratedly yell.

"You still like him, huh?" He states more then asks.

"Look, there's nothing wrong with how you feel. It's ok. It's not like you're dying or anything." He chuckles.

"It is to me..." I mumble.

"Well, if it's a big deal. How about you move back with Kenzie for a week or so? To think your feelings over?" He suggests.

"Ok..." I sigh. It's not like I can do anything else.

Liam walks back to his seat and I see Zayn walk past my seat. I quickly snatch the zipper of his sweatshirt and he stumbles backwards.

"What's up?" He cautiously asks, chuckling.

"I wanna draw with you." I pout once I notice the cartoon character drawing in his hands.

He takes the seat next to me and hands me a sketch pad and a Sharpie marker.

We both get started on drawing and I find myself drawing Niall.

Seriously?! What is wrong with me?

I peek up from my drawing and notice that Zayn went back to his seat and Niall is in his place, looking over my shoulder at my drawing.

"That's pretty good." He laughs.

It really isn't. It's pretty terrible if you ask me.

"Where did you go?" I ask, shrugging.

"Just to go steal Loui's blanket. He fell asleep once we took off and I figured he didn't need it anymore."

"Oh."

"You tired?" Niall bluntly asks. He knows me too well. Even though I practically just woke up, I wanna sleep again.

"Obviously." I giggle.

Minutes later, I'm fast asleep and the last thing I see is Niall trying to braid my hair.

Niall's P.O.V

I've probably said it a million times, but I swear on my life I could stare at Ellie forever.

After I successfully braided a small section of her hair, she started to softly mumble things.

"I've always wanted a kiss in the rain."

Then she immediately breaks out in a cold sweat and starts shaking.

I grab her shoulders and shake her awake. She snaps her eyes open and starts to cry into my chest.

"What's wrong?" I ask as I stroke her hair in an effort to try and calm her down.

"I don't remember..." She nervously sniffs.

"All passengers please fasten your seat belts. The plane will be landing soon at your destination." An announcement plays on the speakers.

"Don't tell Liam." Ellie warns.

"Why would I?" I quickly throw my hands up in defense.

"I don't know. By the way, I want you to be the first to know that I'm gonna spend a few days with Kenzie." She blurts.

"Why?" I ignore the amount of surprise in my own voice.

"Because..." Ellie awkwardly covers.

So... I heard Niall and Louis got kicked out of the AMA's and weren't allowed back in... I have no words. Honestly, I really don't expect that from the sweet little angels... But then again. I do.
