Refuge // Punk Niall

My Brother

“Hannaley wake up!” A voice yelled. I groaned not wanting to open my eyes.

“No.” I said groggily. The voice left but I was suddenly cold. I realized they pulled the covers off.

“What the fuck!”

I opened my eyes to see Gwen laughing. “You asshole.” I groaned.

“Get up we have school.” She said holding in a laugh.

“Why are you still laughing?” I mumbled. All she did was laugh even more.

I got up and walked over to the closet pulling out a pair of black jeans and my UCLA hoodie.

That reminds me I need to give my brother and my mom a call.

I went over to the restroom and fixed my hair.

I walked out of the restroom with straight hair and a bit of make up. I went over to grab my bag and ran downstairs.

“Let’s go.” She rushed out the door. I followed behind her.

We made our way into the car and she was on her way to school.

The car ride was silent something that usually doesn’t happen with Gwen. But I appreciate the silence.

Yesterday at the little cafe was nice. Niall made it clear that he wasn’t going to try anything on me. He said he was going to wait till I was ready even if it meant waiting forever.

I personally thought it was cheesy and he was trying to get me to smile. But at the end I saw that he was serious. All those tattoos and piercings are just a cover up. Niall could be a sweet boy but at times he can also be an asshole.

The engine turned off making me snap out of my daze. We were in the schools parking lot. We got out and made our way inside.

“Don’t even look.” Gwen whispered beside me. I gave her a confused look but then I realized what she was talking about.

“Hannaley!”

I turned around and that’s when I knew Gwendolyn was going to be mad.

I gave Niall a small smile as he walked over here. He was wearing a grey jumper with the sleeves rolled up.

In other words he looked cute.

“Hi Niall.” I smiled at him.

“Hey.” He said giving me a hug. At first I was surprised but it didn’t take me long to react.

The smell of his cologne filled my nose. His cologne was different from Lukes, Nialls is less strong and has a sweet smell to it.

The hug was a ten second hug. I noticed this because Gwen made a weird cough. I pulled away realizing what happened. I’m sure my cheeks were a shade of pink.

“I’ll see you in fifth.” Niall told me. He also had a shade of pink on his cheeks. I nodded and gave him a small wave.

He walked away so we started walking towards the school doors.

I honestly don’t even want to look at Gwen right now. That’s how scared I am.

“I’m not going to say anything.” She mumbled.

“And why would you?” I snapped. I instantly regretted it.

“Because you just fucken kissed Luke on Friday and now you’re flirting with Niall.” She snapped back.

I was resisting the urge not to argue with he but I failed when I said. “You’re one to talk.” I laughed bitterly.

“What does mean?”
