Tori's POV:

I was able to fall back asleep after drinking the tea. But not until I had gotten over this cold, hard fact: I had just kissed Niall Horan. And I wanted to do it over and over again. I wish I was still in his arms. I closed my eyes, savoring that memory.

"Hello! Earth to Tori!" a voice echoes in my ear. I open my eyes, remembering Nikki and I are sitting with the band in the livingroom. "You're so distracted today!" Nikki says. "Did Louis sneak into our room last night или something?" I blush a deep red. "N-no." I stutter. My eyes meet Niall's and he looks at me calmly, not betraying our secret.

"I'm just...just homesick." I respond slowly. At least it wasn't a lie. I did miss my family, although I didn't miss the fighting. Nikki hugged me. "Aw, poor thing." Harry says, petting my head. "Um...Thanks?" I say, еще like asking.

Louis looks at me. "Don't worry Tori. You'll be Главная sooner than Ты think. The tour is only what?" He looked at Zayn. "5 months?" Zayn glanced at Liam. "No, it's a год and two months." he answered. "Yeah, the managers thought it be good if we had the girls under our wing for the entire tour." Niall said, shifting his gaze away from mine.

I smiled. "That's good. That means we'll get to hang out with Ты guys more." Niall looked back at me. He knew what I meant. That means I'll have еще time for you. He smiled. "Yeah, it'll be fun. Won't it Liam?" Liam nodded. "Of course."

Niall's POV:

I look at Liam and shake my head. I felt that hidden comment. He grinned at me and I threw a подушка at him. "Irish rage!" Louis joked, jumping behind the sofa, taking Tori with him. She squeaked in surprise. Nikki looked at me with longing in her eyes, but she threw a подушка at me and screamed, "Pillow fight!"

"Oh it's on!" I declared, throwing a подушка at her. Nikki leapt out of the way. Tori was giggling as she hit Louis with a pillow. "'NO! Jimmy protested'"! I laughed and grabbed Tori. "She's mine!" I say in a threatening tone. Louis puts his hands up. "Sorry, lads. Nothing I can do here." Tori giggles, soon stopping as if soothed by being in my arms. "You'll never take us alive!" I yell, carrying Tori into the den.

"Niall..." she whispered. "What?" I turned to face her. "This!" She threw a подушка at me. "Oh. I just saved you. And that's how Ты repay me?" I put a pout on my face. "Of course not. This is." She brought her face closer to mine. I prepared myself to meet her lips, but they never came. "Hey, I'm not going to Kiss Ты blondie." Tori smiled at me and put one hand on my neck. "Aww, please?" I pleaded.

She rolled her eyes at me. "No silly. Someone could walk in!" As if on cue, Louis jumped in the логово, ден and screamed, "SUPERMAN!" I jumped back, taking Tori with me. "Uh, sorry." I exclaimed. Tori smiled and kissed my cheek. Then she put her finger to her lips. "Help, Lou!" she called. Louis sailed over to her and picked her up. "I've got you, Tori! Never fear!" I laughed and watched him carry her out. At least I got a kiss... just not the one I wanted, I thought smiling.
