I awake to the sound of someone opening the door, I sigh and roll over trying to force myself back into the deep void of sleep.

“Sum? You up?” A female voice speaks out, I think its Eleanor.

I roll over and let out a groan as my eyes flutter open. As my eyes adjust to the dark room I realize I’m no longer in Niall’s room, but wrapped in the flower duvet on the big bed in the room that’s supposedly mine. I guess Niall took me in here while I was sleeping.

“Yeah, now I am.” I say groggily.

“Niall wanted me to give you this.” Eleanor says handing me a large black duffel bag. I unzip the bag to find a note carefully placed on top of everything inside the bag.

Dear Summer,

You said you didn’t want to go out, so I planned something special for you whilst you were sleeping. In the bag you will find 3 different outfits I’ve picked out, choose your favorite do your hair and makeup, then follow the trail of rose pedals. They will lead you to me, and your surprise.

xx Niall

I look up at Eleanor confused; she shrugs and leaves me alone in the room with the duffel bag. I sigh as I swing my legs over the bed and pad over to the light switch. I wince when the bright light makes contact with my eyes.

I decide on this outfit, keeping my hair wavy and my makeup light and natural. As I dig through the duffel bag, trying to find a belt, I come across another note attached to a pack of cigarettes.

Just in case you were running low ;-) xx El

I laugh shoving the pack of cigarettes in my back pocket; I’d have to make sure I thanked her for that later. I wonder how she even managed to get those; Louis was practically glued to her hip when I saw her.

I pull open the bedroom door and notice the trail of rose pedals on the ground. Niall’s note said to follow the rose pedals until I get to him, so that’s just what I do. I follow the pedals all the way down the stairs, past the Kitchen and out the back door.

I gasp as I take in the scenery; Niall’s standing underneath a deck that’s decorated with tiny white Christmas lights. He’s dressed in this.

“Surprise!” He says grinning, holding his arms out for a hug. I slowly walk over and let him embrace me. When he lets go of me, he steps to the side revealing a picnic basket a blanket and various bottles of alcohol and pop. There’s music playing softly in the background, it feels like this could be a scene out of a movie.

“You did all this for me?” I stammer out.

“Of course, I wanted to prove how sorry I was.” He replies.

“Oh.” I whisper.

“Summer?” He asks.

“Yeah?”

“You look really pretty tonight.”

I look down at the ground, blushing hard. I shuffle my feet a little bit before Niall suggests we eat and it’s then that I realize just how hungry I am. I sit down on the blanket and Niall unpacks the food from the basket.

“Did you make all of this yourself?” I ask in awe as Niall hands me a tupawear container of spaghetti, one of my favorites. I lick my lips.

“Most of it. Except the strawberries, these I bought.” He says, taking a container of chocolate covered strawberries and placing it in front of him on the blanket. He pulls out two forks, hands one to me and keeps one for himself.

“I know spaghetti is your favorite, along with garlic bread and Greek salad, so I made it for you.” Niall says beaming. My face contorts and Niall must take notice because when he sees my reaction he blushes hard.

“Like I said Summer, I know a lot about you.” Niall says matter-of-factly as he scoops Greek salad onto a plate, he also adds a huge chunk of garlic bread.

“Spaghetti, please.” He says as he scoops salad onto his plate and adds another chunk of garlic bread. I quickly pass him the spaghetti and he adds two heaping piles onto both of our plates.

Niall hands my plate back to me and I dig into my spaghetti, immediately regretting it when the hot tomato sauce burns the roof of my mouth.

“Hot! Hot! Hot!” I choke out, my eyes watering as I force the burning pasta down my throat. Niall hands me a can of Coke so I can wash the pasta down. I pop the can open and take a sip.

“Sorry, princess. Should have warned you it was still hot, my bad.” Niall apologizes and I nod my head, mouth still hurting from the hot pasta.

“S’okay.” I murmur, twirling more spaghetti around my fork and blowing on it before putting it in my mouth.

“You must be starving, you haven’t eaten in what? Three days now?” Niall says absent-mindedly.

“Don’t remind me.” I grumble, not wanting to think back to the night the boy I’m now sharing a picnic with abducted me.

We eat the rest of our meal in silence, Niall’s too busy shoving food down his throat to speak and I just don’t have anything to say. When the meals finished, Niall cleans up the dishes and shoves them back into the basket.

Niall looks from me to the assortment of alcohol he’s brought outside with him and then back to me, a smile dances on his lips.

“We’re getting drunk.” Niall states.

“Absolutely not.” I protest.

“Sorry, let me correct myself. We are getting drunk Summer, this is not a question. Just relax and enjoy yourself.” Niall says, his tone hardening.

I roll my eyes but accept the shot of vodka Niall hands me. I mentally count to three and shoot it down my throat. I don't even hesitate before grabbing the bottle of vodka and pouring myself another shot. Soon the bottle is empty and Niall and I are laying on our backs, looking up at the stars and talking.

“Niall?” I ask turning over so that I’m facing him while resting my head in my hand.

“Hm?” He slurs out.

“Why me?”

“Why you what?”

“Out of all the girls in the world, you chose me. Why me?”

Niall looks right into my eyes, and at that moment it feels like he’s staring right into my soul. Maybe it’s the alcohol coursing through my bloodstream or maybe I’ve gone mental, but I have never felt this close to anyone before.

“I first noticed you a year ago. You were coming home from dance class. It was a Wednesday I believe, yes Wednesday night. Anyways, I saw you exit the dance studio and at that second, I knew I was hooked. I knew I had to have you. You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve seen in my life Summer, but let’s face it I’m not your type. If I hadn't had kidnapped you, we would have never spoken.”

“You think I’m beautiful?” I slur out.

“I think you’re beyond beautiful Summer.” He whispers back to me.

And then just like that, I’m kissing him. I press my lips against his; he’s shocked at first. He probably can’t believe I’m the one kissing him because it’s usually the other way around. I pull him by the shoulders so that he’s on top of me, resting on his elbows so that his entire body weight isn’t pressing against me.

I run my fingers through his hair, deepening the kiss. He pulls away from me for a second to catch his breathe, as his breathing returns to normal he brings his forehead down to rest against mine.

“Where did that come from?” He questions, I shrug underneath him.

“I knew if I got you drunk you’d warm up to me.” Niall states with a grin, I laugh and kiss him again on the nose.

Niall stands, wobbeling slightly and scoops me up, hoisting me over his shoulder. I let out a shriek and bang my fists against his back.

“Niall!” I shriek out, laughing. “Put me down!”

“Well if you insist.” He says, running back inside the house and into his room, dropping me on top of his soft bed. He flicks off the light and comes to lie beside me. I move closer to him and snuggle into his chest, my eyes getting heavy.

“Summer?” Niall asks.

“Yeah?” I manage to slur out.

“Do you forgive me?” He asks hopefully.

“Yeah.” I whisper.

He kisses my forehead and hugs me close to his chest until I manage to fall asleep.
