An Unexpected Meeting
Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates
As Niall and I were walking down another side street we are suddenly greeted with a hoard of paparazzi each of whom are questioning Niall and his security and shoving microphones in their faces. How does he deal with this on a day to day basis?
"Niall, can you tell us who the girl is?" one large looking man with a notebook and microphone shouts.
Niall grabs my elbow and guides me through the sea of notebooks and we barricade ourselves in the cutest coffee shop. I literally cannot believe this is happening, and here I was expecting an ordinary few days in the capital. As Niall offers me a chair I notice him shooting me his super cute side smile again...
"I realised, I never asked your name?" he seems to be almost shy? Around silly little me?
"Ahh, I'm Caroline. You need not tell me your name, I know you alright" I almost laugh in return. Real cool Carr, real cool.
"Well it's truly lovely to meet you, what can I get you?" he shoots back after a moments deliberation.
"Just a hot chocolate please" with the biggest goofy smile I own written all over my face, I am so not cut out for this out for Coffee with celebrity malarkey.
"With whipped cream and marshmallows I hope" the blonde haired beauty winks back.
"Couldn't have it without, thank you!" I say a little too eager.
He returns shortly with the drinks and he begins to ask me all sorts of various things about me, my home and my little old life. Despite living the fast track life he does, he seems genuinely interested in my none celebritised private life, offering me the cutest smiles at relevant times. I never let on that I'm massive fan, trying my hardest to play it cool. After a good half an hour of 20Q I return the favour and begin to quiz him on life in the star light, he starts by telling me about the boys and then progresses to give me updates on their upcoming album. I'm sure I've died and gone to heaven.
I check my watch after what seems like a short time and realise we've been chatting for the shortest two hours of my life.
"Shouldn't you be getting ready for your show tonight?" I state
He checks his rolex and sighs.
"Hang on, how do you know I've got a show tonight?" he flashes his adorable smile and pairs it with that wink I previously encountered.
"So, I might be a bit of a fan" I mutter shyly, fiddling with my spoon and avoiding all eye contact.
I hear a chuckle leave his lips as I brave looking up.
"Come to the show tonight then? Come meet the guys back stage and watch from the side lines? I'd love to see you again". He meets my eyes unquestionably waiting for my reply, almost holding his breath.
I try with all my might not to scream my head of and instead go for a simple...
"Sounds lovely, I'll be there" with my shy smile.
With that we both get up, he goes in for a hug but my limbs go in all directions. I am so uncoordinated. Upon gaining control of my arms, the moment has passed. Instead he leans forward and kisses me on the cheek.
"Laters" he beams as slowly backs towards the door, leaving one of his security to fill me on the details for the evening.
I try my hardest not to make my eyes follow him as he walks past the window, but I can't help it. I glance at him, just to see him looking at me also. He flashes that divine smile just as he rounds the corner and he's gone. After being filled in by security, I take my seat at our table again and just sit there.
Did that just happen? Did I just meet THE top guy on my crush list? Am I actually going to the concert this evening? A mountain of questions play on my mind and instead of sitting and dwelling on them I head back to the hotel and make myself presentable for a night with the One Directions boys.
Could my life get any better at this moment?
