Brielle's P.O.V.

I was running around Niall's, no our flat when my phone rang. I ran into OUR bedroom and flopped on the bed, answering without looking at the caller ID. Big mistake.

"Hello?"

"Where the hell are you?" My mother yelled.

I winced and held the phone away from my ear. "I'm at Niall's flat."

"That's always where you are," my mother hissed.

I didn't know what to say, so I sighed.

My mother said, "Where is all of your stuff?"

"Here," I said.

"Why?" My mother asked sharply.

I decided now was better than later. "I moved in with him."

It was quiet for a while. "What?"

"I moved in with him," I repeated slowly.

"You come back home right now, young lady," my mother said firmly.

I rolled my eyes. "No."

"I am your mother, Brielle, you do what I tell you! You cannot just walk out of home whenever you fancy-"

"No, Mom, you listen," I said, standing up. "I'm not sixteen. I'm not running away because you're so unfair. I'm not even running. I'm moving in with my boyfriend. I'm twenty. I'm an adult. I can do what I want. You can't order me anywhere. So Mom, no. I'm not coming home. You can't make me-"

Click. She hung up on me.

"Coward!" I yelled, shaking my phone. "You're a bloody coward!"

I chucked my phone on the bed just as Niall walked in.

He raised an eyebrow. "What did the phone do now?"

"My mother," I glowered at my phone.

"Ah," Niall said. "I see."

"She told me to come home," I said, still glowering at my phone.

"So what did you say?" Niall asked.

"Well, I started telling her that she couldn't boss me around then she hung up because she didn't want to hear it," I said, calming down.

"Well I know what can cheer you up!" Niall cheered.

"What? I mumbled.

"Louis and Eleanor invited us to a double date!" Niall smiled.

I perked up instantly. Niall knew how much I wanted to meet the boys' girlfriends. This did cheer me up.

"Let's go!" I cheered.

I ran out the door but Niall caught me around the waist.

"What?" I asked.

"Maybe something other than pj's?" Niall asked.

I glanced down and noticed that I was wearing a tank top and my pajama bottoms slung low on my hips.

"Oh," I blushed. "Yeah, you're probably right."

Niall winked at me and I scurried off to change. I just pulled on some jeans and a sweater. When I came out, Niall was waiting for me.

"You look nice," he offered.

I rolled my eyes. "Its just jeans and a sweater."

Niall arched an eyebrow. "You do look nice."

"No, I don't." I said.

Niall got a gleam in his eye and I backed up. He tackled me onto the couch and began tickling me. I squealed and kicked out, trying to get free.

"Say it!" Niall said, moving his fingers to my stomach.

"Say what?" I managed to choke out.

"Say I'm look good!" Niall said.

I tried to get free, but Niall had me stuck. Finally, I panted, "I look good!"

Niall stopped tickling me and sat back, a proud smile on his face. "You look amazing, love," he promised, and leaned forward and kissed me on the cheek.

I felt like such a teenage girl when I got butterflies in my stomach when he kissed me. We got ready to go and left, heading to the restaurant where Louis promised we would meet.

When we walked through the door, I spotted Louis right away. He had a pretty girl next to him. I'm assuming that was Eleanor.

Louis spotted us and waved. We walked over to him and I smiled.

"Brielle, this is Eleanor. Eleanor, this is Brielle," Louis said proudly.

They were so in love, it was cute. "Hi," I said. "Nice to meet you."

"You too," Eleanor said.

Niall and Louis did a bro hug or something and we sat down at a table. We ordered quickly and then Niall and Louis started talking about their upcoming tour. Eleanor and I kind of looked at each other and smiled.

"So," I said, sipping my water. "How is Louis?"

"He's great," Eleanor said. "He makes me laugh all the freakin time. I swear, an hour with him and you'll burn a hundred calories."

"Ah, so you're a believer in burning calories by laughing," I said. "Me too. It's more fun."

"Yup," Eleanor said, nodding rapidly. I had to laugh. "So how's Niall?"

"Well, we just moved in," I said, smiling slightly. "It's taken some time adjusting to having a guy in my house, well, technically Niall's house, but yeah."

"You're so in love," Eleanor stated.

I was slightly taken aback. "You think?"

"Yeah," Eleanor said, smiling. "As soon as I said Niall's name, your eyes lit up. I'm the same way with Louis."

"So how did you and Louis meet?" I asked which led to a long, funny story. Apparently, Harry was a matchmaker. Who knew?

I knew I was in trouble when Eleanor asked, "How did you and Niall meet?"

I glanced at Niall, who had heard the question. He smiled at me and held my hand under the table.

"We bumped into one another on a bridge," I answered, which was true. "Then, he stole my diary and found me to give it back to me. He asked me out, but I said no. Then, when I was coming home from a club, it started to rain and I didn't have a phone on me. I stopped at a house and it happened to be Niall's. I stayed the night, and that was that."

"Awwww," Eleanor cooed. "That is so romantic."

I blushed a little and out of the corner of my eye I saw Niall do the same.

"So, Louis," I said, anxious to change the subject. "Prank anyone lately?"

This led to a long conversation about the pranks we've pulled on people. The worst one I've done is take all of my brother's clothes and his towel out of the bathroom when he was in the shower. He had to stand in the bathroom for at least a half an hour, drying off from the air. He was pissed, because he couldn't leave. When he managed to get out, he found me laughing my head off outside. I was never allowed near my brother when he was taking a shower and he learned to lock the door when he was taking a shower.

I told this story without the ever-present ache in my chest, which surprised me. Niall rubbed my knuckles with his thumb when I was talking, which helped. Louis and Eleanor laughed at my story.

"Yeah, I'm more of the one who gets pranked by this one," Eleanor jabbed a thumb in Louis' direction. "Once, he filled my hairdryer with flour. It took me an hour to get the flour out of my hair because my hair was wet and it got all goopy."

I laughed, holding my stomach. "I would have killed him."

"Oh, I got him back," Eleanor said a glint in her eye. "I painted his nails when he was sleeping. Then, I shrunk his jeans."

I laughed while Louis whined, "Those were my favorite pair!"

Needless to say, Eleanor and I hit it off. We talked about celebrities that we liked, which Niall and Louis countered by talking loudly about their favorite female celebrities. And Eleanor and I both ordered the same thing. When it was time to leave, we made plans to meet up for a shopping trip when we had time.

Niall and I got home and I changed back into my pajamas and flopped on the couch. Niall joined me later, wearing his sweats.

"I like Eleanor," I said.

Niall chuckled next to me, playing with my hair. "That's good. I wanted you to like her."

"How can anyone not?" I responded lazily.

"Just... the fans like Eleanor. It took them a while to like her and she's a lovely person. I don't want them to hate on you."

I felt little butterflies in my chest again. How is he still doing this to me? "That's so sweet."

"Anything for you," Niall shrugged.

The words rolled off his lips so easily, I was surprised. He didn't even have to think about what he said. He really meant it too. I knew Niall didn't say anything endearing without meaning it. He was sensitive like that. Niall genuinely meant those words, and it made me feel... I don't know. Niall made me feel something I've never felt before. He gave me butterflies whenever he touched me and the mere mention of him could bring a smile to my face.

I didn't know how to respond, so I snuggled up to him and he held me, not letting me go.

____________________________________________________________________

Sigh. It was just so adorable at the end. I need a guy like Niall. No- I just need a guy. Anyway, I hope you guys like it, please comment a lot, I felt like there was barely any comments last chapter, but whatever. They just make my day. And, how cute are Eleanor and Louis? Last time I checked, they were still together, so if they aren't someone please tell me cause that'll be awkward. Sooooooooo.... yeah. Enjoy my little friends. :)
