Better Than Words

Dee takes me to her and Harry’s place to hang out for awhile before I go to my hotel. When we first arrive it’s just her and I. We catch up on everything we’ve been doing. I tell her all about my new job. We hear the door and I see Harry first. He gives me a hug before going over to Dee. Next I hear Niall before I see him. “Becca?!”
The way he says my name with his incredibly sexy accent gets me everytime. He turns the corner from the kitchen. “There you are!” He comes up to me and gives me the biggest hug ever. It feels amazing. He pulls back and says. “How’s my girl with the beautiful eyes?”
Niall has always been fascinated with my eyes.They are 2 different colors. I have one blue eye and the other is hazel. I smile. “I’m great Niall. It’s so good to see you.”
Niall still has one arm on my back. I look up and meet his eyes. Those beautiful blue eyes. I’ve never seen anything that color before. I’m so distracted by his eyes that he has to repeat what he’s just said to me. “We brought dinner. Let’s go eat and you can tell me all about your new job.”
“Sounds great, Niall.” I reply.
During dinner Niall and I monopolize the conversation. I tell him about my job. I lose my thoughts a few times as he stares into my eyes, genuinely interested in what I’m saying. We have a long talk about which athletes we have met. Niall and I always text each other first after we meet an athlete, because we know the other will be excited for us.
I glance over at Dee and she is just smiling. I know she thinks Niall and I should be a couple, and I would like that very much. I just have no idea how Niall feels about me. Does he only think of me as a friend who happens to be a girl, and happens to like sports, and has cool eyes?
Dee comments that it’s getting late and that she should take me to my hotel so that I can get settled.
“Hotel? No that’s too expensive. You can stay with me Becca. I’ve got plenty of room.” Niall offers.
“Are you sure Niall?” I ask.
“Of course I’m sure. Come on let’s get your stuff and we’ll head out.”
In the car on the way to Niall’s I tell him. “Thanks for letting me stay with you Niall. I know Harry and Dee would have let me stay with them, but I think they need their privacy.”
“You’re welcome. I totally understand. It’s no problem at all. Besides, I think it will be fun.” He says as he looks over at me and winks. I just smile back because that one little wink just literally paralyzed me. Does he have any idea what he’s doing to me?
