{Hey guys! Sorry this took so long to publish! Just a forewarning that this is going to be kind of a long chapter because I didn't know how to separate this up but bare with me! <3}

Niall gave me the choice of what we should do next so I suggested we go to a museum. I remember looking up some things to do in Italy online, before this trip, and I found an archaeological museum that's in Milan. Chelsea and Brianna didn't seem too excited about going to another museum while we were visiting Milan so Theresa and I narrowed it down to a couple of other historic places to visit in a compromise.

We arrive at the archaeological museum at around 2:30 ish. I read that this place was a convent before it became a museum, but that was years ago. I wonder what it was like in here when it was.

Its free admission today, thank god, I feel bad that Niall has been spending so much for me these past two days, but I guess it's not bothering him because he looks like he's having fun.

There's all kinds of artifacts in here that come from ancient cities like Egypt and Greece and of course Italy. I bend down to look at some hieroglyphics on a stone, this is probably thousands of years old, it's so cool seeing things like this. I like to try to imagine the person who made this so many years before me, what kind of person were they or what their life was like back then.

I stand up to look around me, where's Niall? I didn't notice that we split up once we got inside. I wander over to the next room hoping Niall didn't go too far, thankfully he didn't, he's looking at some Greek pottery. I don't walk up to him right away, instead I hang back behind Niall and just watch him. He reaches his back pocket to grab his phone and takes a picture of the old treasures.

Once he's done taking a photo he looks to his sides, I think he's looking for me so I start walking towards him. He does a 180 and stops when he lands his eyes on me.

I smile and give him a little wave. He returns my smile with a huge grin on his face and steps away from the exhibit. His smile alone gives me major butterflies. We meet each other in the middle of the room.

"Man you do like to sneak away."

I scoff feeling my cheeks start to blush. "Yeah it's a bad habit." He just laughs and says it's fine. I really should stop doing that though, he needs to hold my hand more... "So.. I haven't bored you yet, have I?" I question him sardonically.

He smirks, "Nope, this is actually pretty cool. Good choice Jordyn."

I love the way he says my name! I nod slightly and bite my bottom lip to stop myself from smiling too much, "That's good." I blurt out. He looks me in the eye and smirks. Then he looks down and reaches for my hand so I move mine in front of me and he snakes his fingers between mine, "Do you want to keep looking around here some more? I think there is something outside."

"Ooh, yes I heard there's some art in the courtyard."

We step outside into a beautiful courtyard. In the center, where it's open, there's a huge 3 tier granite fountain with colorful flowers and some shrubbery surrounding the base. The art itself is hanging on the walls of the walkway that's underneath a roof. The walkway borders around the garden area. This is a neat idea for a museum, you get to take in the beauty of the art and the outdoors.

We start on the left side and walk clockwise around the garden. I don't know much about art and I have no talent myself but these pieces are gorgeous. I wish I could do something as amazing as this or sing.

Niall and I are looking at a piece when a thought comes to my mind. "Are we going back to my place before dinner so I can change into the dress you bought me?"

"Oh shit, I didn't even think of that." He looks away from the painting and frowns at me. Niall's face is stricken with panic, then it's almost as if a lightbulb appears above his head.

I tilt my head to the side with a small smile on my face and wait for him to finish his thought.

"Ah!" He says with a finger pointed up, "We can get changed at your place, then get a ride from there to the restaurant."

"We?" I breathe.

"Well, yeah." He chuckles, "I can ask one of my guys to drop off my clothes, then he can take us to the restaurant so we don't have to walk."

Hmm, changing in the same room with Niall... "Ok," I shrug, trying to act nonchalant, "sounds like a good plan." I smile impishly at him. "Did you make reservations for this place?"

A corner of his lip rises, "Yes I did Jordyn." He shifts to the side. "At 5:30." I raise an eyebrow at him, 5:30? I check my phone for the time and it's 3:47... Niall is glancing at my phone too and gives me a wide eyed look when we look up at each other. Yeah we better go.

Back at the hostel Niall and I are getting ready for our dinner date. I'm in the bathroom with my dress already on. Now I'm starting on my hair and makeup mostly just makeup because all I did for my hair was pin it all to one side and curl the long pieces that are hanging in front of my shoulder. My makeup is simple, just some cover-up, mascara and lip gloss, I really can't do anything more advanced than that.

Niall's POV

While I'm waiting for my clothes to arrive I sit at the desk on the little chair. Jordyn's still getting ready in the bathroom so I go on my phone to pass the time, I hope she will enjoy tonight. I have to figure out a way to spend more time with her though... It'll have to be sometime after my tour.

There's a knock on the door, it must be Mike with my suit. "I got it." I call to Jordyn as I pass the bathroom to open the door. "Thanks mate," I grab the clothes from him, "could you wait for us and drive us to the restaurant?"

"Sure." Is all he says.

He walks away and I close the door behind me, just as I'm walking past the bathroom door Jordyn steps out. I stop in my tracks to look at her. "Wow, you look stunning."

She puts a finger between her teeth trying not to smile and to my surprise doesn't blush at my compliment this time! "Thanks, and thank you for the dress." She straightens out the bottom of the skirt. "I love it." Jordyn grins back at me.

"Good, I'm glad you like it." I take in her beauty, it's obvious that I'm checking her out but I can't help it... "It, uh suits you well." I can't stop staring at her, "Ok," she giggles and slaps at my arm lightly, " you need to get dressed Mr. Horan!"

It takes me minutes to put on my gray suit, before I leave the bathroom I take a quick look at my hair. Good to go. Now it's Jordyn's turn doing the checking out. A small smile grows on my face and I do a little spin around for her to show off my suit. "Looking good Niall!" She laughs and claps her hands together. I give her my brightest smile then we head off to the restaurant.

The restaurant is located in the Navigli district which is a beautiful spot because all the different stores and restaurants are lined on the two canals here. I reserved a table on the outside porch that's along a canal. Hopefully she'll like it.

Mike pulls us up outside of the restaurant. "Hang on," I say to Jordyn before I get out of the car. I walk around the back end of the car to Jordyn's side and open the door for her.

Her face lights up when I give her my hand to help her out of the car, "Thanks." She smiles stepping out.

Your POV

Holy... I understand now why Niall insisted we dressed up! This place must be a four to five star restaurant! The outside of the building is old and the area around this place seems old as well, and I think we drove over a canal but I'm not too sure because honestly I was checking out Niall. Men in suits are my weakness, especially if they are good looking Irish men!Inside it's vaulted ceilings and white columns, the windows are tall as well making the space feel larger. Shit I have never been to a place like this.

We walk up to the hostess and she greats us with a warm welcome, Niall nods at her, "Hello, we have a reservation for a Mr. Hensen?" I frown and look up at him with a questioning look. He slyly grins at me and then shrugs. "Didn't want to stir attention." He tells me. The hostess then leads us through the restaurant so Niall and I follow hand in hand. We definitely look like a couple to other people right now...

"Ahh." I chuckle, I don't think it would have seeing that this age group is much older, Niall Hensen, or Jordyn Horan? I like the sound of that! We walk past a few tables and are coming up to a door to the outside, where are we going to sit? I let out a quiet gasp as we step out onto a patio. There's a pergola above us covering the whole patio with strings of lights hanging across it and the patio itself is sitting along the waterway.

I grip Niall's arm with my free hand and beam up at him. This is so romantic! He looks at me eyes dazzling with a shit eating grin on his face knowing full well that he's done good.

Our hostess shows us our table and we sit down, of course Niall pulls the chair out for me. My cheeks are hurting from all the smiling, "Thank you kindly." I say to him. He just nods at me and sits across from me still smiling.

The hostess gives us our menus and tells us the specials and that our waiter will be right with us. I let out a deep breath and look back at Niall with raised eyebrows after the hostess leaves, "So... this is definitely a surprise." I praise as I look around the outdoor dining area.

His face lights up, "Yes, do you like it?" My eyes fall back to Niall and I rest my elbows on the table, "Hmm I don't know" I raise my shoulders... "This place seems pretty expensive. I mean I would've liked just going to a normal restaurant."
His face drops, "Seriously?" He asks bemused.

I grin from ear to ear, "No." I giggle, "this is perfect Niall." Although I am going to be worried about the bill after. His mouth turns into an 'O' shape, with a sign of relief on his face. "You scared me for a second there!" He scoffs, leaning forward.

After we order our drinks from the waiter we open the menus. I'm so hungry! I haven't eaten anything since lunch and that was like 3 and half hours ago! I find what I want and close the menu to look up at Niall. He glances at me from the top of his menu, "So tell me about your family."

I let out a huff of air, "Where to begin? Um.." I drum my fingers on the surface of the table. "Well you've met my parents, Steve and Carol, they've been married for 31 years this April and I've got an older sister Kara who's four years older than me so she's 24 now. She's a RN working at the hospital in town now which she absolutely loves." I stop there because I don't know if Niall wants to know more of just my immediate family or intermediate, so I just ask him "What about you?"

"Cool!" He takes a sip of the water that's on the table and continues, "I have an older sibling as well, his name is Greg. My parents divorced when I was five though. So me and my brother lived with my father in Mullingar."

"Oh," I frown slightly, that sucks. "What are your parents names?"

"Bobby and Maura." He answers, licking his lips and staring at me. He looks hungry too but I don't think just for food...

Once the drinks come we order what we want and continue asking questions about each other. It's crazy how much we have in common, I've always thought I'd relate to Niall the most out of the group, that's why I had a huge crush on him. We're both bubbly, down to earth people who love a good laugh. Our birthdays are in September, we like the same sports, music, even classes in school!

I don't know how long we spent here talking and eating but Niall seems to be enjoying this  and so am I! I don't want this night to end.

We're laughing at a joke I told him, and Niall's face is red from laughing so hard. I've had too much to drink because I have to place my hand on the table to stop the world from spinning. He opens his eyes to look at me trying not to laugh so hard, "You okay?"

I peek up at him, "Yeah," I let out a sharp exhale, "just a little dizzy from the alcohol."
"Will you be okay to walk?" He questions me, sounding a little concerned. Yes and it's not like we are going to walk for an hour...

"Yes I'm fine now." I chuckle. Jeez I may be small but I sure as hell can handle myself Niall! "Don't let my small figure fool you," I point a finger at him. "I can handle a bit of liquor."

He laughs and puts his hands up. "All right, sorry for being worried."

When we finish our food I look at my phone to check the time. It's already 8:24! We've been here for 3 hours... The restaurant has quieted down exponentially there's only two other groups out here, this place must be closing soon.

"How was your food." I ask. He leans his chair back enough so only the back legs are touching the floor. "It was delightful!" Just then the waiter comes up to our table and asks if we would like dessert. I'm kind of full but I really want dessert. We look back at each other.
"Got room for dessert?" He grins at me.

"Oh man." I sigh, "could we share?"
"Of course!" He grabs the little dessert menu sitting in the middle of the table and flips through it. "Ah how about chocolate mousse cake?" His eyes meet mine, waiting for my approval.
"Ooh, yes!"

He sets the menu back down and looks up at the waiter, "All right, we'll have a slice of the chocolate mousse cake with two spoons please." He tells the waiter.

"Coming right up!" He cheerily says, and turns away from us.

Niall chuckles then clears his throat when we make eye contact, his face seems serious all of a sudden. "You remember our conversation earlier at lunch?" He starts off, I nod, I remember... "How we were talking about my tour ending in the beginning of August and how you girls will be in London around the same time?"

Where's he going with this? I sit up in my seat more, a little intrigued on what he's trying to ask, "Yeah?"
The corner of his lip twitches, almost smiling, "Well I was thinking..." He leans forward to place his hands on the table. Get on with it man! "I was thinking that we could see each other again in August."

Whoa, my eyes go wide for a second. I am reeling at the fact that Niall wants to spend more time with me! Fuck yes! Is my initial thought, but I can't say exactly that to Niall.

I'm frozen momentarily by Niall's proposal and he's just looking at me like I have a bird on my head.

"Yes." I say softly. That's a weird answer... "I mean," I blink at him. "yes..." well that came out good. I can't think of anything else to say!

Niall has a confused expression on his face so he furrows his brows, "So you want to see me in London?" He asks again trying to confirm my answer.

"Yes it's the perfect idea!" I grin at him.
"Great!" He booms and moves his hands on top of mine. This is so crazy, I never would have thought that this would happen! This trip keeps on getting better and better!

Moments later our dessert arrives so we have to let go of each others hands in order for the waiter to place the cake on the table. But Niall doesn't break eye contact with me. I start to blush because of our PDA and look down at my hands.

I hear the spoon clanging against the plate as Niall takes a scoop of cake. "Mmm! This is delicious!" He exclaims, I peek up at him and he's watching me with a huge grin on his face.

I smirk at him and grab the other spoon to take a bite myself. Wow that is good! It only takes a couple more bites to finish off the small slice of cake.

After Niall pays for our dinner (I had to bite my tongue while he was paying), which was amazing by the way, he suggests we go down to the canals to walk. I give him a worried look when he says this only because of what happened last time when we tried walking near water that it didn't end well.

"Don't worry! It's more lit up and there's an actual walkway, so I learned my lesson." He tells me.

I laugh. "All right, but if I get wet somehow I'm blaming it on you."

"Fine," He takes my hand in his as we walk down the street towards the canal. "I will take full responsibility." He puts up his free hand like he's pledging and chortles.

I love the charm of Europe because you can't find anything in comparison to this in Canada. I'm so glad I did this trip... "Do you ever miss home?"
"That's a good question, that." He eyes me sideways with a small grin. "Always, especially for long periods of time." He mutters. "But it's not so bad. With the guys around it's like they're my second family now."

We stop at the top of a bridge that's overlooking a canal and sit on a bench by the railing. From up here you can see all the way down the waterway, street lamps glitter the sides of the canal and the buildings next to them in the evening light.

What a busy day, I yawn and check my watch, it's just after 10 now but I am pooped. My head and eyes start to feel heavy so I rest my head on Niall's shoulder.

He lets out a huff of air through his nose, "Did I tucker you out Ms. Hensen?"
"Mhm, but it was worth it." I mumble with my eyes closed.
I feel him shift around to see my face. "You better not be falling asleep on me." And he pokes my cheek.

I try to bite his finger and he laughs at my failed attempt.
"Ok let's get you home before I have to carry you there." He gets up and I feel him standing in front of me. Ah! I was so comfy!

I roll my head back with my eyes still closed, "Nooo." I grumble.
"Yess," he giggles and grabs my wrists to pull me up.

He pulls me up too fast and I crash into his chest. My hands are in front of me resting on his chest. I peek up at him, "Ow," I pout.

"Sorry." He smiles at me, we're looking into each others eyes now, only centimetres apart. Our faces are so close, I'm wide awake now! I can feel his hands placed on my lower back which makes me grip his shirt collar. He gently runs his thumb over my cheek bone. Then next thing I know Niall closes the gap between us and kisses me!

I moan into his lips while sliding my hands up his neck and into his hair. He wraps his arms around me in response to hold me tighter and lets out a low growl. Wow! Niall is a great kisser! I'd always hope for this moment. To be pulled into an intense kiss with Niall Horan. Real life is way better than imagination.

We pull away from our passionate kiss, both breathless, "We will keep in touch while I'm on tour right?" He asks breathless.

"Of course." I smile reassuringly at him.

He moves a stray piece of hair out of my face and says begrudgingly, "Well, I should take you home because I need to leave as soon as possible in the morning so I can make it to my concert tomorrow night." He smiles at me, his eyes dancing.

"Fine." I drag out.

Mike picked us up and is driving Niall and I to my place, I'm looking out the window watching the city pass us when Niall taps my hand, I turn my head to face him and he's leaning over to me so I lean in close too. "Are you guys taking a ferry to get to the island?" He whispers.

"Yeah." I nod, "We're going from Le Havre to Portsmouth. Then taking a bus to London." I look at Niall's darkened face. He appears to be in deep thought so I ask, "Why?"

"What if I picked you gals up in Portsmouth?"
I move back slightly, What? "Seriously?" I say astonished. That would be nice, we won't be in a stinky crowded bus for two hours.

I blink at him with my mouth agape, "Well I mean it'd be really appreciated." I shrug, "If you want to!" I don't want him to feel obligated to do it.

He shakes his head up and down, "Yes I want to, I really don't mind." He smiles at me.

Ok, awesome! The girls will be really happy to hear this because we all are getting tired of riding buses.

We arrive at my hostel and I get out with Niall close behind to walk me to my door. I step up to the door but don't go in yet, instead I turn to face Niall.

"Thank you, for this amazing day." I say cupping my hands in front of me.

He smiles and leans close to my face. "It's my pleasure Ms. Hensen." After he says that he turns his cheek to me.

"Um what are you doing?" I stare at him.
He peeks at me from the corner of his eye. "Aren't you going to give me a kiss on the cheek?"
"What?" I say with a surprised expression.

He looks at me straight on and puts his hands on his hips as I laugh out loud.
"After every time you thank me you give me a kiss on the cheek, I thought it was like a Canadian thing you guys do!" He explains starting to blush.

I cover my mouth to stifle my laugh, "No, it's not. But I can give you one if you like."

"Yes please, I think I deserved it." He says in a childish tone. He moves his face away like he did before so I can kiss him on the cheek.

I roll my eyes at him and lean forward to give him his 'deserved kiss' but he quickly turns his face back and pecks me on the lips.

I pull back feigning shock and he gives me a devilish grin. What a stinker! He starts backing away towards the car.

"Sweet dreams Ms. Jordyn." He says in a low voice waving a hand at me.

"Good night Niall." I wave back. "See you in a month!" I add.

"Yes! And don't forget to text or call whenever you like!" With that he opens the car door and hops in.

See you in a month...

Okay! Finally done! Hope you guys enjoyed this, please comment or vote if you like and keep on reading! xoxo
