Gotta Be You

My heart was racing faster and faster with each step I took. Closer and closer to him I got. I counted each step in my head “1…2….3…4…” and so on. I stopped before I got any closer. My heart was beating loudly. I thought everyone in the whole mall could hear. I took a deep breath and walked closer. I closed my eyes and continued taking deep breaths and walking closer. I was about one step away from Niall when he hugged me. I couldn’t believe it. Niall James Horan, a famous singer from Ireland, who was in a boy band, who was form “THE” band “One Direction”. I started having trouble to breathe. I had to remind myself in my head “Breathe Skye, BREATHE! YOU NEED TO BREATHE!” He took a step back and looked at me. I stared into his icy blue eyes. They were beautiful, just like his smile, like his personality, just…..like….him. We stood there for about 5 minutes but it seemed like forever to me.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a silver bracelet with a diamond heart charm. He held it out like it was meant for me or something.

“Its, its for you. I hope you like it” he said it a quiet soft tone.

“Oh. Wow.” I carefully took it from the palm of his hand. His hand was as smooth as a baby’s bottom. I giggled a little bit. But not in a funny way in one bit. In a wow, surprised giggle.

“Its beautiful. Thank you” I said to him.

“So you don’t think its weird? At all?” he replied back to me in the same tone as before.

I looked up to look at him, straight at his face. He looked back up at I could see it in his eyes that he felt something for me.

“No, not at all. Its actually quite sweet of you to do such a thing for me.” I said with a big grin on my face. I wanted to scream my head off in excitement. I had to scream! But I just couldn’t do it. I didn’t want to scare him away and make him think I was one of those crazed fans. Which I was, but I held the excitement back to a minimum. So I’ pretty sure I looked like and idiot the whole time.

“So, do you have a twitter? Or email or something?” He asked me.

“Uhm, yea uhm, hang on just a second.” I ran to get a napkin from the Starbucks counter. I needed a pen but I didn’t have one and I was to overwhelmed to ask anyone else. I pulled out my black eyeliner I was carrying in my purse. When I walked back over to Niall I wrote down my twitter @Skye_Dawdy, and underneath I wrote my email. I heard him giggle at the fact I was using eyeliner to write all this down. I handed him the napkin and smiled, he smiled back. When he smiled, I blushed. I wanted to look at that beautiful smile forever.

“Well, I better get going, the boys are waiting for me. Maybe I will email your or tweet you” he said with a big grin on his face and walked away back to the boys.

I walked to Marissa and sat down and didn’t speak one bit. I was still wonderstruck from what had just happened seconds ago. I turned around to look at the table him and the boys were sitting at. I watched him as he and the boys got up from their table and walked away from me. Well their table at Starbucks at least.

I turned to take a sip of my ice coffee which was barely gone thanks to Marissa. I caught Marissa looking at me with her mouth dropped open, her eyes as wide as ever, and her face blue tinted from not breathing. She started to wave her fans to her face like it was hot in here or something. Thats when she started freaking out and fangirling like there was no tomorrow. I got up and picked up my purse and my coffee and started speed walking away from her in embarrassment. I figured she would follow me away so she didn’t take it personally.

“Skye, like wow! I cannot believe you talked to Zayn Malik AND Niall Horan! You have to tell me everything! EVERY SINGLE DETAIL!” She said in a strong loud tone.

I walked out the mall door with Marissa by my side to my car. We both sat inside my car for a bit taking in what just happened. I was just as freaked out as her. If not more. I was just hiding my excitement better than she ever did or is/

“So everything? Right you want to know everything?” I said to her as I turned my head to look at her.

I turned on my car, revved my engine and backed up and pulled away out of the parking lot onto the highway.

“Yes! EVERYTHING! And don’t you dare leave a single thing out. Leave nothing out!” she replied back quickly

.

“Okay, well he gave me this bracelet with this diamond heart charm on it” I said with a huge grin on my face. She started fangirling even more. “And then he asked if I had a twitter or email and I said yes! And then I wrote my twitter and email on a napkin but I had to write it with my eyeliner! He laughed at me, well giggle anyway at the fact that I was using eyeliner. And AHHH! Marissa his laugh was sooo cute, and his eyes….WOW. They make me melt. I am the most happiest girl on earth right now.” I rambled on and on.

“Ahh! Skye” Marissa continued on “I am sooo Happy with you! Like you can’t believe how happy I am right now. There are no words to describe this feeling.” She let out a sigh and laid back in the car chair.

We were almost to my house and since it was Friday Marissa was spending the night with me. She hadn’t asked her mom yet so I let her use my phone when we got home because hers died in mall. Her mother brought over a bag of her clothes, toothbrush, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner, makeup, hair brush, straightener, bobby pins, hair clips, and hairspray. It was actually quite surprising to see Marissa with that much stuff. She was the tomboy out of us two and I was the girly girl. She even said so her self! She liked hunting, boots, four wheeling and the country and I liked shopping, heels, pageants and the city!

“Wow” I said in amazement.

“Yea I know! I thought that maybe this weekend..You know! You would meet up with Niall.” I looked at her with a questioning look. I laughed and through all of her stuff into a corner of my room that had space.

Basically the whole night that Marissa stayed we watched movies, made popcorn, made rainbow cupcakes, and do our nails. Well, I did my nails, Marissa sat there on my bed listening to music.

“Skye, didn’t you say you gave Niall your twitter and email? she blurted out breaking the silence that was in my room, well whole house actually.

“Yea. What makes you ask?” I replied back with a doubtful worried tone in my voice.

“Well. Did he say he would email you? Tweet your or something!?” she said.

“Oh, yea I forgot” I laughed. “He did say he would maybe tweet me or email me, but he said maybe so he probably wont. He probably already forgot about me or something”

She stood up and looked right at me “And how would you know? You haven’t check your twitter or email yet lately. At all! Have you?”

“No, not yet…” I answered back.

“Well then! What are you waiting for! GO CHECK!” She motioned me towards my laptop.

I got up out of my seat and walked towards my closet. I opened up the doors and reached for my laptop bag. It was a neon pink laptop bag with my name “Skye” written in blue, which was my favorite color, and a threaded neon green heart by the “E” of my name. I raced back to my seat in my room and pulled out my laptop as fast as I could get my hands to move. I opened up safari and in the search box I typed in twitter.

As I was about to log in, my computer died and shut off on me. Marissa could tell by the look on my face. She rushed over to my laptop bag and pulled out the charger for my computer, plugged it into the wall and into my laptop. I kept pushing the power button on my computer over and over again, repeatedly. When it finally turned it on I had to reopen safari and go to twitter. I look at the people who had tweeted me.

“No, no Niall. He didn’t tweet” I said with a disappointed tone.

“Didn’t you say he might email you though also?” She said with hope in her voice.

A smile appeared on my face. I opened my yahoo mail. 5 unread messages. 2 were from fabstyle.com 1 was just spam about my credit card which was funny because I never had a credit card. 1 was a optional quiz which was a scam. There was one left. I clicked on it. My face glowed with passion.

Marissa rushed over to me in excitement because she knew.
