My Weakness
Seems Perfect, But A Little Too Rushed
-Tigerlily’s POV-
This seemed pretty perfect. Niall Horan, my biggest celebrity crush ever, just kissed me and then asked me to be his princess.
He interlocked our fingers. He was just about to guide me out of the room hen I stopped him. “Wait.”
“What?” he looked at me with a confused look like no other that I had ever seen.
“Don’t get me wrong, this is perfect. I mean you are my biggest crush that I’ve ever had, but don’t you think this seems a little too… rushed?”
“Yeah, I guess you’re right. But I don’t want anything to change between us. How about I take you on a date tomorrow?”
“Absolutely, Nialler.” I blushed a bit.
“Great. Now seriously, what should I call you? You need a nickname.”
“Well, my friends at school call me Tiger, and my bestfriend calls me Kitkat sometimes. Other than that, I don’t really have any nicknames.”
“Hmm… I need one for you! Tigerlily sounds too formal, and Tiger and Kitkat sound too friendly. I need one that only we call you. I mean I love your name, never heard anything like it. You’re the first Tigerlily I’ve ever even known of.”
“Have you ever seen Peter Pan?”
“Erhm, no.”
“Oh, well, there is a Native American on it by the name of Tigerlily.”
“Oh, cool. What about Ti?
“Hmm, already have that one. Sorry.”
He thought hard. “Got it! Tily! It’s just the first and last two letters of your first name.”
“Perfect.” I kissed his cheek.
He blushed. “What are your three absolute favorite foods?”
“Sushi, pasta, and frozen yogurt. Why?”
“Really? Oh, no reason.”
“Ok then… and yeah! I love those foods, and I mean, those are my absolute favorites, if I had to choose.”
“Ok. So what do we tell them?”
“That we were just talking, and hope they believe us.”
“Nothing about that kiss?”
I blushed. “No, nothing about the kiss, nothing about our date tomorrow, if they ask us what we’re doing tomorrow, just say that we’re busy. Like I said, lets hope they believe us.”
“Right. Ok, and don’t say anything about tomorrow, I will handle that, since you don’t know when we’re going on our date.”
“Ok, ok, I got it.”
He untwined our fingers which I was barely even aware that they were still intertwined. He opened the door and then left the room, waiting for me in the hallway though. I turned the light out and shut the door behind me. He led us out to the big living room. They were all staring at us.
“What?” I asked confused.
“You guys were in there for quite a long time…” Harry said, probably assuming something happened.
“And?”
“And, what were you two doing?”
“Talking. Nothing more.”
“Sure you were.” He said winking at me.
“Whatever. I am telling the truth, whether you are convinced or not. We would’ve been out a little bit ago but Nialler here insisted on coming up with a nickname for me for you guys to call me.” I said nudging Niall in the stomach.
“Which is?” Zayn asked, actually paying attention, not text Perrie.
“Tily.” Niall answered. “Pronounced ‘Ty-Lee’.”
“I like it!”
“Good, it’s staying.”
