The next morning, I wake up to a cute text from Niall, telling me that he couldn’t wait to see me until tonight. I think I might have forgotten to mention that he had asked me out yesterday while we were all bowling. I am excited but nervous too, because it’s been a long time since I’ve been on a date. He had also told me that I should wear something fancy. I reply and tell him I couldn’t wait to see him either. I really couldn’t wait.

I wasn’t sure if I even had anything nice or fancy to wear. I guess I can ask Charlotte since she’s a lot more experienced with dating than I am. I mean, I have had a couple boyfriends before but they never lasted for more than a month. Things just got awkward. I wanted something more; something much more than that. I wanted to find someone who really cares about me, not just someone who messes with my heart and smashes it to a million pieces.

I pull my cardigan tighter around my body as I walk over toward the door and reach forward and grab the handle. I turn the handle and pull it open before I walk out in the hall way and over to Charlotte’s room.

“Char?” I ask as I knock on the door.

“Yeah?” I hear behind the door and hear some shuffling feet come toward the door. The door swings open a few minutes later, revealing my older sister standing there, a small smile on her face.

“Everything okay, Iz?” she asks, looking at me.

I shrug as I stare back at her. “I’m fine, I just have no idea what to wear tonight since Niall is taking me out,” I say and let out a sigh as I lean against the door frame, staring over at my sister.

“Like somewhere casual or what? A fancy place?” she asks, looking at me.

“Some fancy place, I don’t know where he is taking me, but all he said is for me to dress up real nice,” I tell her. She nods and grabs me by the wrist, pulling me in her room over to the big walk in closet.

“I know something perfect,” Charlotte says walking over to the closet as I sit down on the bed. A few minutes later, Charlotte comes over to me with an outfit in her hands. It was a pretty strapless black dress with lace and sparkles. She had also paired it with some matching black pumps.

“Go try it on, Iz, I’ll be waiting in here for you,” she smiles and hands over the dress to me before setting the pumps on the floor near the mirror.

“Okay, I’ll be right back,” I carefully take the dress of hers and carry it in my hands as I walk over to the bathroom that was across the hall from where our bedrooms were. After I walk into the bathroom, I shut the door behind me before I slip out of my sweat pants and random t-shirt I wore. After I set my clothes down on the sink, I slip into the dress.

I smile at my appearance. It fit perfectly, showing off my curves in all the right places. I couldn’t wait to show Charlotte how it looked. I grab my dirty clothes and toss them in the dirty clothes hamper in my room before I go back over to Charlotte’s room.

“Char?” I ask as I reach for the handle and push the door open.

“Yea-oh my God Isabelle! You look beautiful, he is going to love it!” she squeals getting up and running over to me. She grabs me by the hand and tells me to spin around.

I smile and blush at her comment. “Thanks!” I tell her with a warm smile.

“Welcome, sis!” she replies, smiling at me. We talk for a few more minutes until my phone goes off, signaling I had a new text message. I smile as I see that it was from Niall. I type my pass code in and go to my messages so I can read it.

So bored. I can’t wait to see you tonight, beautiful. I’ll be there to pick you up at 7 sharp. See you tonight, love. – Nialler x

I smile at his text and reply back, telling him I can’t wait to see him either also that I’d be waiting ending it with a smiley face.



Minutes ticked by, I was getting more nervous by the second. He was going to be here soon; it was almost five to seven. My makeup was done, hair curled that cascaded down my back, and all I had left was to put my jewelry on. I reach over and grab my heart necklace from the dresser. After I pull my hair up in a bun, I start to put the necklace on. I put the chain around my neck and reach behind and clasp it together, letting it hang down. I reach over and grab my ring and slip it on my right ring finger.

I pull my hair down from the bun and let my wavy hair fall down my back once more. The last thing I had left to do was put on the heels I was borrowing of Charlotte’s. I stand up from sitting at the vanity in my room and grab the shoes before slipping my feet in to them. As if on cue, right after I slid my foot in to the left one, the doorbell chimed throughout the house.

“Isabelle! Niall is here! You ready?!” I look over to see Charlotte walk in to my room, staring at me, a wide smile on her face.

“Yeah, I’m ready,” I tell her, smiling at her.

“God, you look gorgeous! Now, go girl! Have fun,” she says handing me my black clutch and pushing me toward the door.

“Don’t wait up for me,” I turn back at her with a smile before I head down the stairs. My face turns up in to a wide smile as I see Niall standing there looking handsome in dress pants and a blue button-up with a tie, his blue eyes bright. A wide smile is spread across his face as he stares at me, speechless as if not knowing what to say.

“Why hello there love, you look gorgeous,” he looks at me and smiles at me.

“Thanks,” I tell him and smile.

“You ready to go, love?” he asks, looking at me as his blue eyes bore into mine.

I nod and smile as he grabs me by the hand and leading me out the door.

“How are you, love?” Niall smiles at me as he leads me over to a red car.

“I’m good, thanks. How are you?” I say as he presses a button on the key and opens the passenger side door for me.

“I’m great, now that I’m here with you, love,” he leans forward and presses a soft kiss on my cheek. Awe, he was too adorable.

He quickly comes around and gets in the driver’s seat before starting up the car. I had forgotten that people drove on the opposite side of the road and car in the UK. We talk for the next few minutes while he drives. I have no idea where he was taking me because he had kept telling me it was a surprise.

We pull in to the parking lot of some fancy Italian food place that I couldn’t pronounce.

“Is this where you’re taking me?” I ask, looking out the window. The bright lights of the buildings were almost blinding me as I look out the window.

“Sure is, they ‘ave the best food ever here,” he says and pays the valet and gets out before rushing over to my side and helping me out. He opens the door and grabs my hand, helping me out.

“Thanks,” I tell him as I grab his hand. He wraps his arm around my waist as he leads me toward the entrance.

After walking in, he leads us up to a podium where a girl stood, waiting to seat customers.

“’Ello there, love. Name?” she smiles at the two of us.

“Horan,” Niall tells the girl. She nods and scribbles something down on a notepad before grabbing two menus and turning toward us.

“Follow me,” she smiles at us before turning and walking. As Niall and I follow close behind her, he pulls me close to him. She leads us to a quiet spot in the back and sets the menus down at the table and gives us a small smile.

“Your waitress will be here shortly,” she tells us before walking off, shaking her hips as she walks off. Couldn’t she tell that Niall was on a date and that I am sitting right here? She seemed like she was trying a bit too hard.

Niall and I talk for a few minutes before our waitress walks up to the table. A tall blond girl walks up to the table.

“Hello, loves. I’m Beatrice and I’ll be serving you tonight. What can I get you to drink?” she says a warm smile on her face, eyeing both Niall and I.

We both order our drinks. I decided to stick with just water while Niall got some beer. I forgot that the drinking age was 18 here and not 21 like it is back home in the States.

Niall and I talk and laugh about random stuff for the next few minutes while we wait for our drinks. I am happy that I can talk and laugh with him and not feel awkward. I can actually be myself. Our waitress comes back with our drinks a few moments later.

“Here you go, love” she hands me my water before handing Niall his beer.

“Thanks, love,” Niall says and takes a swig of his beer.

“What are you going to have t’night?” she asks, looking at us.

“Uh, I’ll have the chicken Caesar salad please,” I tell her and set my menu down on the table.

“And for you, love?” she looks at Niall.

“I’ll have the chicken carbonara with a Caesar salad and extra breadsticks,” Niall tells the girl and hands her both of our menus.

“I’ll get that right in for you two,” she says and grabs our menus from him.

We talk and laugh together while we wait for our food. He is so adorable, I love how I can be so carefree and open with him. We get in to a fun yet intense game of twenty questions and learn a lot more about each other. I learned that he was from a town called Mullingar in Ireland. His accent was sexy, I had to admit. I can’t help that we just met not even three or four days ago but I am really starting to like him.

From how he looks at me, I can tell he really likes me too. I can see it in his eyes.

“Isabelle,” Niall says as his amazing blue eyes boring in to my blue orbs.

“Y-yeah, Niall?” I look at him, smiling.

“You are so beautiful. I can’t keep my eyes off you,” he looks at me; I can see a sparkle in his eyes. He has a wide smile on his face as he looks at me.

“You really think so?” I ask, a small smile on my face as I look at him.

“Of course, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever met,” he says, smiling brightly at me.

“You’re too sweet,” I smile at him.

“Only for you, love,” he leans forward and grabs my hand, lacing his fingers with mine and kisses my cheek. I feel my cheeks go a shade of dark pink as he looks at me.

Before we know it, our food arrives. After we get our food, we begin to eat. Niall digs in right away and starts gulping it down.

“Whoa there Niall, slow down there, hun,” I look up at him, a warm smile on my face. He swallows and grabs his napkin before wiping his mouth.

We talk and laugh at random things while we eat our food. After we finish, Niall pays the check and grabs my hand.

As soon as we step outside, we are immediately spotted by tons of flashes from cameras everywhere. There are even a ton of people who begin bombarding Niall with a million questions. I knew it was probably going to be everywhere tomorrow in every magazine.

“Niall, who is she?”

“Are you two together?”

“Are you just friends?”

“What’s going on between you two?”

“Is there anything special going on between you two?”

Niall didn’t respond, he just grabbed me by the hand and we made a run for it toward the car. Once we get in there, Niall starts it up and peels out of the parking lot. Thankfully, we got away without anyone following us.

“Well, that was fun,” I look at him.

“Yeah, it gets even crazier, trust me, love,” he glances over at me. He drives me back to my grandparent’s house. He gets out and comes over and helps me out.

“I had a great time with ya, love,” he walks me up to the porch. We turn to face each other; I can feel his hot breath on my face. He stares at me, a wide smile on his face.

“I had a great time with you too,” I smile up at him.

He smiles as he looks at me.

“Would you like to come hang out with me tomorrow, love? We’re having a movie night at mine and Zayn’s flat tomorrow. The lads and I along with their girlfriends will be there too if you would like to come. I would really like to see you again,” he says, looking at me, a wide smile on his face.

“I’d love to come,” I tell him smiling wide.

“Great,” he smiles back. “Can I uh-can I kiss you?” he asks, staring at me, his lips curving up in a smile as he looks at me.

He was standing so close to me, I could feel his breath on my face. It smelt like a mix of peppermint and Italian food. I wanted so badly to kiss him but is it too soon? Should we wait a while?

He slowly starts to lean in toward my lips as did I. I feel the butterflies erupt in my stomach as our lips touch. As we kiss, I feel him grab my hips and pull me closer to him and wrapping his arms around my waist while our lips move in sync. I move my arms around his neck while he tightens his around my waist as we kiss. We pull away a few minutes later, staring in to each other’s eyes, speechless.

He smiles widely at me after we pull away. “Wow,” he smiles at me.

“You’re a great kisser,” he grins looking at me as he rests his forehead against mine.

“You aren’t so bad yourself,” I tell him as a matter-of-factly, smiling.

“I know this is so soon, love, but, will you be my girlfriend?” he asks, lacing my fingers with his as he looks at me.

“Y-yes, Niall, I’d love to be your girlfriend,” I tell him with a wide smile on my face.
