One Week Later

"What do you mean you haven't had sex with him yet?" Zara shouted at me as we sat alone in the games room. Over the course of one week we had become great friends, she was one of the only girls I could hold a conversation with.

"Its awkward, we don't really talk," I mumbled, feeling my cheeks flush at the thought of having that kind of intimate relationship with Niall. All the partners had done 'it' and nearly all the girls were pregnant- all the girls but me.

"Dara, the fate of humanity depends on us woman to make a new population! It doesn't matter if you get along with Niall, you need his sperm! And right now Maz hasn't got the equipment to do that thing where you mix the egg and the sperm," I saw Zara cringe in her seat while talked and I laughed loudly at the sight, but in the back of my mind her words were filling me with fear. I hadn't been coping very well with the mounting pressure that was being placed on my shoulders.

"Azul will be on my case soon for sure," I mumbled, thinking of the strict girl who had spent the past week nagging people to get on with their work.

"She's on everyone's case," Zara mumbled, her sentence trailing off as the door to the games room opened.

All of a sudden, everyone began to walk into the games room and soon all twelve of us were collected in an area. I raised my eyebrow at Zara who gave me a puzzled look, and I was about to ask Maz who was standing next to me what was going on but I was cut off by the shrill voice of Azul.

"House meeting!" She said in her high pitched voice and I heard a few groans echo round the room, "So I suppose the first thing to do is ask for an update on everyone's projects, some of you have already given me this update... Actually most of you- except Dara!"

She gave me a fake smile but I could see her cold stare; I shuffled in my seat awkwardly and gulped loudly.

"I'm going to need another few days, I'm almost done," it was true. I was very near the end of the new religion which I had concocted; I has spent every passing minute working on the project. I had spent most nights falling asleep at my desk, I told myself it was because I was so focused on my work but in reality it was because I didn't want to have to sleep in the same bed as Niall. We hadn't spoke at all since the first day, the only thing we said to each other was polite 'hellos' and 'good nights'.

"Now onto pregnancy," I almost choked on my spit as Azul talked and I saw her staring at me as she spoke- she knew about Niall and me, "So I'm pregnant, Maz did the tests yesterday. Ellie is pregnant, Zara is pregnant, Indigo and Madeline are trying- what about you Dara? Niall? How's that going?"

I looked over at Niall who was looking down at the floor, not even wanting to help me in the situation. I felt the eyes of some judging me, I knew how they all felt; most people at the house felt like they had a duty and they were happy to fulfil that duty. But I was still scared, I was still being drowned in the pressure of what I was being forced to do.

"We haven't been trying," I said in a very quiet voice and I felt a comforting hand on my shoulder from Zara, she knew I was nervous of telling Azul. I was scared of the beauty, most people were scared of her.

"So you haven't finished your project and now your saying you haven't even been trying for a baby! What next? You'll be telling me that you don't want a baby and you don't want to write! Dara you are here for a reason. I suggest the pair of you do something about this tonight, otherwise there will be consequences," I saw the anger in her eyes and I felt goosebumps rise on my arms. Terror ran through my veins- I didn't even want to think about what she would do.

Walking into the bedroom I saw Niall laying on the bed with a guitar in hand, he had already been given a new project- record an album.

"How's the music going?" I asked feebly, trying the make conversation. Azul's word were running through my brain at the speed of light.

"We need to have sex," he said, not even taking any notice of my question, "Only way to make a baby."

He looked up at me with a cocked eyebrow and I smile softly at his attempt to lighten the mood but inside I was feeling that familiar churning sensation. He stood up and leaned his guitar against the wall before walking over to me slowly, I felt my heart beat faster with every step he took.

"I know we don't really talk, we can change that though. But right now I'm just as worried as you are about Azul's warning, it would be better if we just got it out of the way," I looked into his eyes to see if he was being serious- he was.

All I could do was nod, I was scared of what would come out if I opened my mouth. Cautiously he moved his head towards me and I only realised what he was doing the moment before his lips grazed over mine, a spark of electricity seemed to appear in the air and the whole atmosphere changed.

Leading me over to bed where I had only slept a couple of times, he lay me down gently; I saw him wipe his hands on his jeans awkwardly indicating that he was just as nervous as I was. Undoing his belt, I noticed that his hands were shaking slightly and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Why are you so nervous?" I whispered and he looked up at me in shock, his pale face had somehow got even paler and I sensed something different about his usual confident character.

"Its just a lot of pressure on one act. Its the world depending on this," he mumbled, finally taking off his belt and pulling his jeans down, with one swift action he took off his T-Shirt and was left in just a pair of boxers.

He looked at me expectantly and I realised that I had just been staring at him rather than undressing myself. Slowly my fingers trailed down to the bottom of my top and I pulled it off, letting the cold air of the room hit my skin. Without looking at his reaction I took off my jeans, leaving me vulnerable and slightly afraid.

When silence fell over the room, I raised my head to see Niall standing where he was with his mouth slightly open. His pupils had dilated, and the boxers he was wearing were getting tighter and tighter.

"What are you waiting for?" I asked jokingly, I wanted the experience to be over quickly- it would mean I didn't have to feel so awkward.

Taking my hint, Niall clambered on the bed and positioned himself over me before leaving a trail of kisses down my torso; I appreciated the thought, he was trying to help me relax. I felt his calloused fingers brush over my skin and suddenly I felt cold air hit a certain area of my body.

"Are you sure you're ready?" Niall whispered, sensing the tension in my body.

"Yes," was all I could say, I was too focused on not crying to say anything else. I felt like I was being used, not by Niall but by everyone else; Azul had forced it upon us and we were made to go along like we were puppets without feelings.

I felt the first thrust he made, and my muscles began to release all the stress that had built up in them. Maybe I needed this, I thought to myself as the familiar euphoria came over my body. I could vaguely hear Niall's heavy panting above me but I was too absorbed in my own feelings to notice; I felt that ball of fire build inside of me as I made my way to my climax.

"Fuck Dara," I heard Niall groan, his voice was a lot deeper. I raked my nails down his back as he began to move faster, the feeling of pleasure washed over me like a tsunami.

Suddenly, with one final thrust, I hit my climax and everything turned to white for a few seconds as the sensation flooded into me.

"That wasn't as bad as I thought it would be," I breathed out to Niall who was laying next to me, trying to get his breathing back to normal. The boy laughed out loudly into the air and I joined him; we must have looked lime mad people to an onlooker but in that moment if time I didn't care what people thought. I didn't care that I hadn't spoken to Niall before that time, all I cared about was that we had finally broken the ice. We had gotten over that awkward stage where we didn't talk.

"What are we going to name our kid?" He asked me with a lopsided grin and instead of being filled with dread, I felt happy so I smiled to myself.

"Whatever you want," I said quietly to him, turning onto my side so I was facing him. I had to admit that he looked gorgeous, his hair had been messed up and stuck to his forehead in an unkept but beautiful way, he looked relaxed. He looked happy.

"We can decide together," he held my hand in his and looked up at me with sparkling eyes. As much as I hate to admit it, I felt my heart beat a little faster than usual just hearing him say those words.

Awww so this was cute. Does this mean that Dara is pregnant or what? And what's this whole couple-y vibe I'm getting of #Nara? Is this the start of something?

I'm sorry but Azul is really annoying me- like mind you own damn business woman!
