Chapter 40: Welcome Back Boys
Brielle's PO.V.
The sun went in through the window and flashed directly in my eyes. I moaned and rolled over, only to smash my nose into a solid thing. It felt like a wall. I rubbed my nose and opened my eyes, squinting because the room was so bright. It was Niall's chest. When I noticed what it was, I blushed, even though he was asleep.
Then, I felt the pain.
It was kind of embarrassing, how sore I was. I had hickey's covering my neck, I could feel it. And my legs felt like rubber. As much as it hurt, I couldn't help but relieve last night, which seemed to go on forever.
I tried to go back to sleep, as I was exhausted, but after being in the light room for so long I couldn't. Instead, I stayed away, tracing shapes on Niall's chest.
After a while, he woke up. Niall blinked and stretched. When he saw me, he immediately pulled me down for a long kiss. He pulled away and when he looked down at me a slow smile spread across his face.
"Hey babe," he said, Irish accent thick from sleep.
"Hi," I whispered back.
"Last night was amazing," he told me, fingers now tangling themselves in my hair.
I blushed, feeling bare now that we both were awake with only a sheet separating us. "Yeah, well, you were amazing," I said. "I kind of went along for the ride."
Niall shook his head. "No babe, you were amazing. The best."
He then proceeded to whisper in my ear all the things that I did last night. I pushed him away, laughing when things started to get ridiculous.
"Now you're being crazy," I told him, laughing.
"I like crazy," Niall said.
Somehow, it made my heart jump crazily. "I love you," I informed him.
Niall's smile spread even more. "I love you too."
We both kind of smiled at each other stupidly, before I kissed him. "Well, I'm going to go make breakfast, what do you want?"
"Mmm," Niall said, leaning back against the pillows. "How about... you just stay here and cuddle?"
I smiled at his adorableness. "Well, I'm hungry..."
"Please?" Niall begged, struggling to get up and pull me back down.
I shook my head and went to get up, but froze once I remembered that I was naked. I glanced at Niall then at my clothes that were scattered around the room. Niall noticed what I was doing.
"Come on babe, you're beautiful. Don't be shy," he said. "Plus, it's not like I haven't seen it before."
I glared at him. "I still don't want you looking at me."
Niall rolled his eyes then covered them with his hands. I sprang out of bed and quickly pulled on my bra and underwear. I turned to find my jeans and I noticed that Niall was watching me.
"Niall" I scolded, hugging myself in the middle of the room.
"What?" he asked, stretching leisurely.
"I told you not to look!"
"Well, I only saw you in your bra and underwear," Niall shrugged. "I closed my eyes for the majority of the time."
"Yeah right," I muttered, still looking around for my T-shirt.
Niall noticed my eyes darting around the room. "Here," he said, picking up his shirt from the side of the bed and throwing it at me. "Wear this."
I caught it and squinted at it. "You want me to wear one of your shirts?"
Niall nodded. "I think it's cute."
I snorted as I pulled the shirt over my head. Niall's eyes didn't leave me.
"You're like a stalker," I noted, walking towards the door.
"Just trying to figure out how you picked me," he said sweetly.
My heart thumped in my chest. "Yeah well, you need to pick what you need for breakfast, because I'm going to make some."
Niall grinned. "How about some bacon?" he begged. "And maybe some toast?"
"Alright," I said, heading out the door. "Order up."
I walked down the hallway and down the stairs. Like a little kid, I counted the stairs as I hopped down all of them. Humming a Script song under my breath, I headed into the kitchen.
I stopped dead in my tracks in the doorway, staring. All the other boys were there, along with Lacey. I swallowed hard to keep myself from screaming and took a deep breath.
Louis noticed me first. "Oh lookie here," he said, drawing attention to me.
All the boys' heads swiveled around and they chorused a 'hello' before going back to eating.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked, walking over to the fridge.
"I think the question is why are you here?" Harry asked.
"And with such little clothing!" Louis adds.
I rolled my eyes. "Louis, why are you even looking?"
"Kind of hard to ignore," Louis grinned, unaffected by my comment.
"Well, I'm here because I've moved back in with Niall, and I was about to make breakfast," I said, pulling the bacon out of the fridge.
"Time out," Liam said, making a T with his hands. "You moved back in with Niall?"
"We're dating again," I said, hoping my face wasn't too red. To my surprise, none of them made fun of me.
"Thank God," Zayn muttered under his breath.
"Why's that?" I asked him.
"Niall's been moping around for weeks," he said, emphasizing the last word.
"Really?" I asked, interested.
"Yeah, he's been miserable," Louis said conversationally.
"Really unhappy," Harry chimed in.
"And he wasn't doing anything-" Louis said.
Harry cut him off. "-And he was drinking all the time-"
"And he was moaning about how much of an idiot he was for losing you," Louis said, finishing the story.
I blinked a couple times. "Wow. I didn't know that he was that miserable."
"He was," Liam said quietly. "He really loves you."
"I know," I answered, turning on one of the oven's burners.
"Did he prove it to you last night?" Louis smirked.
"Louis, if you don't shut up I won't feed you," I warned, putting the first few strips of bacon in the pan. They made a satisfying sizzle as they hit it.
"No!" Louis whined. "That's all I came for!"
I turned around, arms crossed. "Did you guys only come over because you wanted food?"
A few of them shrugged, looking guilty. I shook my head at them and then Lacey spoke up.
"I didn't know that we were coming here," she said. "Harry just dragged me along."
"Well, at least he was giving you food," I said lightly, going to the fridge again. If I had to feed seven people, I was going to need more bacon.
...
After leaving Harry to watch over the pancakes, I went upstairs to get dressed and to wake up Niall. I opened our bedroom door and smiled at the Irish boy on the bed, fast asleep.
Niall's mouth was open a little bit as he snored, as his arm was circling a pillow.
I nudged him. "Niall, you have to get up."
All he did was lay there.
I tried again. "Niall, you have to get up. I'm cooking breakfast for you."
Niall moaned, clutching the pillow closer to his chest.
I had one more trick. "Niall, I went downstairs and the boys were there and they say me in just your T-shirt."
Niall was up in a second, releasing the pillow and rubbing his eyes to glare at me.
"They what?" he asked.
"Well, I went downstairs to make breakfast, and all the boys were down there, and Lacey. I was only wearing your T-shirt, and they noticed," I said.
Niall's face darkened. "They shouldn't even be here!" he whined. "What did they want?"
"Food," I answered.
Niall rolled his eyes and got up. I averted my eyes as he got dressed in some boxers and a pair of sweats. I was staring pointedly at my fingers when I felt Niall's fingers under my chin. They made me look up. My eyes met Niall's blue ones, and I was trapped in his gaze.
"That's better," he whispered. "I want to see your pretty eyes."
I blushed. "Well, I wish I had your eyes," I told him. "They're amazing."
Niall shook his head, but before he could say anything, a loud yell echoed from downstairs.
"Hey lovebirds, food's ready!"
Niall groaned and I laughed. I was about to walk out the door when I was pulled back. I looked at Niall, exasperated.
"What?" I asked.
Niall gave me a puppy dog look. "Please put on some pants?"
I laughed at him. "What, don't you like this look?" I teased, twirling around for effect.
Niall groaned. "I like it, but I'm afraid that the other boys will like it too!"
I just smiled, humoring him as I pulled on a pair of my black leggings. When I was fully clothed, Niall finally let me leave the room, holding my hand.
When we walked into the kitchen, we were greeted with wolf whistles.
"Aw, look at the happy couple!" Louis cooed, clasping his hands together.
Niall smiled and blushed, an adorable combination that made me want to hug him and kiss him all over.
"Did you get some Niall?" Harry asked, amused.
Niall was going to smack him, but Lacey beat him to it.
"Ow!" Harry complained, rubbing the back of his head. "What was that for?"
"You do not ask about other people's relationships!" she scolded.
"Okay Mum," Harry muttered.
Lacey went to smack him again, but Harry caught her hand and kissed her. It was there first public display of affection, and it was adorable.
Of course, all the other boys groaned and tried to cover their eyes.
"Get a room!" Louis moaned, closing his eyes.
"I think it's cute," I tried to defend them. Almost instantly, four pairs of eyes looked at me. "What?"
"Of course you would think that," Zayn said as if it was obvious. "You're a girl."
My mouth dropped and Niall dropped my hand and stepped away, probably nervous. Smart boy.
"Excuse me?" I asked, still not completely sure I heard him correctly.
"You're a girl," Zayn shrugged. "You know, you cook and clean, think romantic movies are adorable?"
"Well that's incredibly sexist," I said. "And I'll have you know that Harry just made pancakes. That's cooking, and I'm pretty sure Harry's a guy."
"Well, it is Harry we're talking about," Zayn said.
"Hey, I'm a guy!" Harry exclaimed, joining the argument. "Lacey can attest to that!"
I glanced at Lacey, slightly amused at the sight of her brick red face.
"And my brother always cleaned the house," I said. "My mom worked and I was at school, so he had to clean."
Zayn bit his lip, out of arguments. I winked at him and turned around, checking on the food.
Niall's arms wrapped around my waist, hugging me to his chest. When everyone starting groaning again, he said crossly, "If you don't like it, you can leave. This is my flat, even if you pretend that you can come and go as you please."
I smiled as I started dishing everything onto plates.
"Nice comeback," I said, feeling Niall's chin rest on my shoulder.
"Not too bad yourself," he chuckled, sending vibrations through my shoulder. "I love that you can banter with the boys."
"Zayn was asking for it," I muttered darkly. "He basically said that all I do is cook and clean and that every couple is adorable and cute. Well, I do a whole lot more."
"Yes you do," Niall said, nibbling on the skin by my neck, making my legs gradually get weaker. "You watch movies with me, you play your guitar, you even play football with me."
I grimaced at the memory. "Never again, I told you that."
"But it was only a bruise!" Niall exclaimed.
"A bruise that I got because you kicked me in the leg!" I said.
"I said I was sorry," Niall said then his voice got lower. "I'll make it up to you later," he suggested, sucking on my neck.
I shivered, feeling his breath on my neck. I was about to reply when someone behind us, I think it was Louis, called out,
"Oi! Lovebirds! Get a room or keep it PG!"
Niall let me go as he turned to argue with Louis.
"Well, I'm pretty sure you've seen it before!"
"And I'm pretty sure you've made enough of them!" Louis retorted. "Considering her neck is more bruises than actual skin! What were you doing, trying to cover her in bruises completely?"
Niall didn't reply, and when I turned around with plates full of food, I saw that he was glaring daggers at Louis, who was making kissy faces in the air.
"Louis, I'm pretty sure Eleanor wouldn't want you cheating on her with the air," I teased, putting the plates on the table. I noticed Louis' blank face. "What?"
"Eleanor and I broke up," he said flatly.
I covered my mouth. "Oh my God, I'm so sorry, I didn't know!"
Louis opened his mouth, about to say something before bursting into laughter. "Eleanor and I are still together!" he chortled, doubling over. "You should have seen your face!"
"F-food's ready," I stammered, trying to cover my mistake.
All the boys launched themselves at the table, trying to get as much food as they could before the others. I laughed as they squabbled over bacon and toast. All their teasing aside, it was nice to have the boys back.
