Chapter 20

He laughs and nods. I stare at the back of his head, then at his hands gripping into my legs and then at my shoes and before I know it, we’ve arrived on the street filled with people our age getting in lines for fast food.

Niall gets in line for the kebab, still holding me up and I feel bad, but I don’t intend on coming down any time soon. He orders and also pays for two kebabs and I manage to hold them in one hand until we reach an empty bench further away, where he puts me down.

I sit with my legs crossed and place the shoes next to me. He takes a sandwich out of my hands and I dig in.

"Your underwear is showing." Niall says so I turn towards him and place my legs onto his lap.

"Jeez, thanks."

I shrug and devour my kebab until I’m pretty sure I’ve spilled sauce on my jacket. Then I hug his neck and place my head on his shoulder.

"I wanna go home, let’s go home." I whine and I can feel him rolling his eyes.
