Protector

Forever in my heart.

I woke up that next morning, my eyes wanting to just close again, my brain yelling it needed more sleep. The nightmares have come back, I'd wake up screaming in the night crying, in a cold sweat. Niall took half an hour calming me down last night, and eventually he managed to lure me into a well deserved sleep, his arms wrapped round me safley. 

I heard niall groan and shift next to me as I sat up, tying my hair into a messy bun, trying to make myself loof half decent

'5more minutes,' he grumbled

'Niall, I haven't even told you to get up...'

'You will be in a minute,'

'Okay, get up.' I smiled, pulling the covers off the bed

'Give em bacccck!' He yelled trying to grab for them his eyes still firmly shut. I giggled, slightly at my accomplishment 

'You're an idiot you know that right?' I smiled

'Thanks baby, love you too...' He grumbled sitting up, trying to fix his hair.

I wandered nto the lounge to see all the boys making themselves at home with bowls of cereal, watching some football

'Morning!' I called walking into the kitchen trying to find some coffee to wake me up. 

'Goodmorning!' Harry smiled throwing a lucky charm at me

'Uh, thanks for that Haz?' I said flicking it back at him 

'when did you guys get in here?'

 'Like half an hour ago.' Zayn shrugged

'Uh...' I said oddly 

'they all chuckled, as I shook my head as i poured the hot water into the muf adding the coffee granules

'Make me a cup?' I heard Niall whisper in my ear

'Okays, here have mine I can wait,' I smiled, handing him the steaming mug 

'Thanks.' he chuckled, giving me a quick kiss. I smiled happily, I always felt butterflies when Niall would kiss me, never understood why, I knda, just did. 

I managed to get myself dressed, battling the sleep trying to take over me, To hide the bags under my eyes, I applied a thin layer of makeup, trying not to make it too noticable. 

Niall hated me wearing make-up, even mascara, but to be honest, I don't know too many girls who look great in the morning and then going out exactly like that  their faces bare.  I applied one quick swipe of mascara to both eyes, and applied concealer under my eyes, I looked a it better, still not great, I pondered for a moment, debating whether to put some more on, my hand hovered over my foundation. 

Isighed leaving it, and walking out the bathroom

'Your wearing makeup.' Niall said flatly

'I know,' I shrugged

'Why?'

'Niall, I cant walk out the door looking how i did this morning, being a girl is different to being a guy...'

'Right...' He chuckled as I grabbed my phone ready to go out with Eleanor for the day.

 We wandered through the streets of sydney, ice creams in hand, sunglassess on

'THIS is how you spend time in Australia!' Eleanor gished, as we walked along the raod next to the beach

'We should sit on the beach for half an hour,' I said dragging her onto the warm, golden sand, crowded with people. We found a quieter spot further up the strip of beach, and sat down, sighing in relaxation
