One Direction Imagines: TEMPORARILY CLOSED
What You're Worth
Ring ring!
"Hello?"
"Hey, Teresa! It's Niall."
"Oh, hi Niall! What's up?"
"I was just wondering if you wanted to go to the beach with me and the boys later today?"
"Oh, sure! What time?"
"Like, 20 minutes?"
"'Kay, Ni"
"See you then, Resa!"

20 MINUTES LATER
TERESA'S POV
I rushed to the door when I saw his car pull up. I was wearing a blue crop top with white shorts, and flip flops. My blonde hair was pulled up into a ponytail. I slid into the passenger seat, and gave Niall a kiss on the cheek, then turned around to wave happily at the boys smushed in the back seat.
"Hi boys!" I smiled.
They all looked at me, various expressions of shock on their faces.
My smile slowly faded. "What's wrong? What did I do? Is everything okay?"
Harry shook his head. "Why have you not worn that before? I like it!"
I blushed and looked at Niall. His mouth was clenched, and his hands gripped the steering wheel tightly.
I looked at the ground, slightly less excited to go to the beach. The whole ride was awkwardly silent.
When we got there, we all jumped out of the car, and ran towards a secluded spot, and quickly spread towels down.
Everyone except me and Niall stripped down to their swimming shorts, and ran to the water.
"So, Teresa. You gonna get in the water?"
"Only if you are," I replied.
Niall looked down at his hands and shifted uncomfortably on the sand. "I'd rather not," he mumbled.
"Then I'm not going either. You shouldn't be alone. It's not healthy."
Niall said something really quietly that I didn't quite catch, but when I asked him to repeat it, he shifted again, and remained silent.
"Niall?" I asked softly. "What's wrong?"
He looked at me, raw emotion clear on his face. "I can't deal with this anymore. The boys flirt with you all the time, and you don't even try to stop them. You don't feel anything towards me, and I don't know if you've noticed, but I like you. A lot."
I laughed and said, "Niall. Have you not seen the way I look at you? Answer me this. How many times have I given you a kiss on the cheek?"
He smiled and answered, "Quite a lot."
"Yes. And how many have I given the other boys?"
"None."
"You see? If I liked any of them, and not you, why would I give you kisses, and not them?"
"Well, when you put it like that... It makes sense. And now that I've realized that I might be able to do this... Would you be..."
He looked at my hand, and then took it, holding it gently in his own.
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
I looked at him, and felt the conflict inside me increasing. I wanted to be his girlfriend. But, I wasn't ready for this commitment.
I slowly shook my head, standing up. "I can't, Niall. I'm just not ready."
His face darkened. "You're 18. I'm 19. We both like each other. Why can't you?"
"I'm-I... I just... Can't."
I ran away, ashamed of my incompetence. I ran all the way home. I threw my door open, slamming it behind me. I angrily stomped to my room, falling onto my bed. I slept restlessly until 7, the next morning.

Ring ring!
"Hello?"
"Hi, Teresa?"
"Yes..."
"This is Liam. I was wondering if the boys and I could come over and talk..."
"Is Niall going to be coming? I don't think I could face him."
"No, he wouldn't be coming."
"Sure. Come on over."
---
A few minutes later, Liam, Louis, Harry, and Zayn walked through the door.
Liam got right to the point. "What did you do to Niall?"
"I-I told him I wouldn't be his girlfriend."
"But why?" Louis exclaimed. "Everyone knows you guys loooooooooove each other!"
I lightly punched Louis. "I said no, because I wasn't ready. I'm not ready for a relationship."
Zayn sighed and said, "Will you ever be ready?"
I paused for a moment. Maybe I wouldn't. But I might. I didn't know.
Harry spoke up, saying, "Give it two weeks. We'll be back by then. I'm pretty sure Niall won't find anyone to "loooooooooove" in two weeks, seeing as he's been besotted by you for years. And years. And years! Just don't think too long. You shouldn't be alone. It's not healthy."
"Okay," I agreed.
The boys left, leaving me alone with just my thoughts for two weeks.

FF- TWO WEEKS
I walked up to the front door, letting my self in. I heard them rehearsing in a room upstairs, so I decided to walk up and surprise them. When I stood by the door way, they started another song.
She sneaks out in the middle of the night, yeah
Tight dress with the top cut low
She's addicted to the feeling of letting go, oh-woah, let it go.
She walks in and the room just lights up
But she don't want anyone to know
That I'm the only one that gets to take her home, oh-woah, take her home
But every time I tell her that I want more
She closes the door
She's not afraid of all the attention
She's not afraid of running wild
How come she's so afraid of falling in love?
She's not afraid of scary movies
She likes the way we kiss in the dark
But she's so afraid of f-f-falling in love, love
Maybe she's just trying to test me
Wanna see how hard I'm gonna work
Wanna see if I can really tell how much she's worth, what you're worth
Maybe all her friends have told her, "Don't get closer ‒
He'll just break your heart"
But either way she sees in me
And it's just so hard, so hard
'Cause every time I tell her how I feel
She says it's not real
She's not afraid of all the attention
She's not afraid of running wild
How come she's so afraid of falling in love?
She's not afraid of scary movies
She likes the way we kiss in the dark
But she's so afraid of f-f-falling in love, love
What about all the things we say
Talking on the phone so late
I can't let her get away from me, oh
When I say that I can do it no more
She's back in my door
She's not afraid of all the attention
She's not afraid of running wild
How come she's so afraid of falling in love?
She's not afraid of scary movies
She likes the way we kiss in the dark
But she's so afraid of f-f-falling in love, love
She's not afraid
She's not afraid
Oohhhh, oohhhh
I clapped, startling all of them , and making Niall stiffen. The boys ran out, pushing me toward Niall.
I slowly walked in front of him, and sat down in a chair.
"Niall, I've been thinking, and I've found, that if you still want me, I would be happy, and most excited to be your girlfriend."
He looked up at me with traces of a smirk playing around his mouth before he stood up.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Teresa! It's Niall."
"Oh, hi Niall! What's up?"
"I was just wondering if you wanted to go to the beach with me and the boys later today?"
"Oh, sure! What time?"
