Chapter 31: Food, Laughs, and New Experiences
Leila’s P.O.V.
“I’m hungry,” Niall says immediately after the movie finishes. Madison and I giggle and I roll my eyes.
“Well, technically it is dinner time,” Madison points out, looking at the clock on the wall that reads: 5:26.
“I’m in the mood for pizza,” I suggest.
“Good call. I don’t feel like making anything and that includes frozen pizzas, so we’re ordering,” Madison instructs.
“Yes!” Niall agrees.
“Awesome,” I reply.
Madison takes out her phone and pads into the kitchen to order. Niall and I, on the other hand, don’t move from our spot on the couch.
“So, you feeling any better?” I ask, breaking the ice.
“A little. I mean, it’s not going to completely get out of my mind, but it is nice to forget about it for a little while and be happy that there’s more to life,” he responds.
“Yeah, that’s how I’ve been feeling this entire weekend, too,” I admit.
“I know, it’s hard,” Niall adds.
“Hey, what kind of pizza do you want?” Madison whispers from behind me.
“Cheese, please,” I answer.
“Anything, and by anything, I mean everything,” Niall responds. I chuckle at him and Madison reenters the kitchen and orders.
“It’s great to be laughing instead of crying,” I confess.
“You’ve got that right,” Niall accepts, kissing the top of my head.
“Oh, man, I just realized I have to go to the studio tomorrow,” I remember, my eyes going wide.
“Do you want me to come with?” Niall asks.
“Yes, please,” I reveal, moving my head and looking into his eyes. He pecks my lips as a confirmation that he’ll go and Madison reappears on the other side of him.
“Pizza ordered and it should be here in about a half hour,” she informs.
“Awesome,” Niall says.
“What do we do until then?” I ask.
.
A half an hour later, we’re laughing our heads off at the most insane, hilarious, weird videos on none other than YouTube. A knock at the door brings us back into reality and Madison answers it, paying the pizza delivery guy and returning to the couch with 2 boxes of pizza.
“Yum!” I declare, opening the first box and taking a slice.
“Thank you, Madison,” Niall expresses, digging in to his “everything” pizza.
“Thank you, Leila, for the suggestion of getting pizza!” Madison says, louder than Niall’s comment.
“You’re welcome,” I cheekily respond.
We finish our pizza while laughing at some embarrassing stories of ourselves we felt comfortable to share. Niall’s were very entertaining and funny, just like he was when he was a kid. He seemed to be a pretty amusing child back then.
“Cards Against Humanity, anyone?” Madison suggests as I take the leftover pizza to the kitchen.
“Yeah!” I agree, setting the boxes on the counter and padding back to the couch.
“Sure,” Niall commits, cuddling next to me. Madison gets up and grabs the game from the closet, opening it up and dealing out the cards the second she returns. I realize that this is a game and we’re not on teams, so I have to squirm out of Niall’s arms and make sure he doesn’t see my cards. When I look back at him, he creates the most innocent, puppy dog pouty face that my stomach does a flip on and I almost want to reach out to him, but this is a game and I get very competitive.
“Sorry, babe,” I apologize, looking at my cards. Madison’s the judge first so it’s between Niall and I for the first round.
The card game lasts for a good 2 hours before we decide to call it quits. In the end, Niall wins with a whopping 14 cards, me in second with 12, and Madison in last with 11.
“Oh, shit, I just realized I still have homework to do,” Madison reveals, slapping her forehead.
“Good job,” I reply sarcastically.
“Sorry. Good night, guys, I don’t know if I’ll be out of my room anytime tonight,” she rushes before running into her bedroom and closing the door, leaving Niall and I to sit awkwardly on the couch with the cards still scattered around.
I begin to pick up the cards and Niall notices, so he helps me and we quietly finish the task, him putting the box away in the closet where it belongs. He returns and cuddles with me on the couch while watching a little bit of TV before I declare I’m tired.
“Oh, yeah, that’s right, we have to get up early tomorrow,” Niall points out.
“Good job, Captain Obvious,” I say, standing up and stretching. “By the way, when are we taking you back to your uncle’s house?”
“Never?” he replies. I give him a look. “What? We both need each other at this time with everything going on. There’s no point in me going back to my uncle’s right now when we clearly need to be with one another. Plus, it gives us more time.”
“You cutie,” I smile and walk into the bathroom to get ready for bed.
As soon as I finish, Niall’s waiting at the doorframe when I swing open the door.
“Holy shit!” I shriek, scaring Niall in the process, too.
“I didn’t mean to scare you that bad!” he defends, following me into my room.
“I thought I told you I get scared very easily,” I respond, changing into my pajamas.
“No, you never mentioned that,” he replies, watching me.
“Well now you know,” I state, finishing up. Niall chuckles at me before heading into the bathroom. When he reappears in my bedroom, he shuts the door quietly and takes my phone out of my hand, turning it off and setting it on the nightstand.
“Can I help—”
But before I can finish, his lips are on mine, taking my breath away. With a swift move, he clicks the lamp off and leans towards me, moving the rest of his body on the bed, all without breaking the kiss. My heart is racing, beating faster than a cheetah chasing its prey.
His lips move from my mouth down to my neck, kissing slightly. Now my heart feels like it’s going to burst. Chills run through my entire body, the experience different from anything else. Niall pulls on the hem of my shirt but keeps it on, running his hands up and down my sides. I decide to do the same, giving him the pleasure in return. But as I attempt to do so, he begins sucking lightly on my neck and then it turns into biting. My breath is shallow as the feeling is very satisfying and a quiet moan escapes my lips. I can feel him smiling and once he’s done, my hand rubs against the mark. His eyes meet mine again and his mouth makes it way to my lips, kissing me once more before laying down next to me, snuggling me into his side.
“Damn, Horan, I didn’t know you rolled that way,” I whisper in between breaths.
“I didn’t know, either. I just felt a sudden rush and the next thing I know, I claimed you as mine. I hope you don’t mind, I wasn’t sure where it was going,” Niall explains.
“Of course I don’t mind. That was amazing. I’ve never felt anything like that before,” I admit.
“Neither did I,” he confesses, then chuckles.
“I liked it,” I say, turning over and looking at him.
“Me, too,” he replies, doing the same. We grin at each other before I turn around the other way so we can cuddle together in our spooning position. His arm drapes around me, pulling me as close as possible, and soon I’m asleep.
“I’m hungry,” Niall says immediately after the movie finishes. Madison and I giggle and I roll my eyes.
“Well, technically it is dinner time,” Madison points out, looking at the clock on the wall that reads: 5:26.
