The Princess
and
The Leprechaun
Chapter: 20
Ariel’s POV:
` I sat up slowly from Niall’s arms, my cheeks still damp. It was just past 5 in the morning and I didn’t sleep at all, even with Niall lying beside me. All night I could only picture that crazy b/tch. Niall had tired assuring me that she would never hurt either of us, but I knew better than to underestimate someone willing enough to run on stage during a One Direction concert, knowing that they would get tackled and possibly arrested. Nope, this girl blew through all the warnings, and that scared me. What else was she capable of?
I slid over Niall’s warm body, my bare feet fitting the cool carpet. I glanced back at Niall before closing the door behind me. He had shifted over, his body now occupying the space mine had. I saw his arms move around and wondered what that was all about. It took me a second to realize that maybe he was looking for me under the covers. I quickly shut the door, walking down the hallway to the stairs. It was still dark out and I hugged my torso as I flicked on the kitchen lights. I pulled out the kettle and began to make some tea, hoping that would calm my nervous heart. While I waited for the water to warm up, I traveled into the living room to drag one on the throw blankets off the couch, securing it around my cold body. I was wearing shorts and a tank top, my usual summer PJ outfit. But the beach house was set to some ungodly temperature; I swore I could almost see my breath.
After the tea was done, I took my mug and open the sliding glass door that lead out onto the huge beach facing porch. I sat down in one of the wooden armchairs, the blanket still wrapped around me. My mug felt nice in my chilled hands and I sipped on it occasionally, watching the slow moving tide on the dark sand.
Niall’s POV:
My eyes darted open when all I felt on the bed was cold sheets, and not a warm body I was so accustomed to having locked in my arms every night. I sat up, my heart pounding as I threw the door open. It banged against the wall but I was already flying down the stairs. What is Sasha had abducted Ariel in the middle of the night while I slept? I swear, when I get my hands on the monster-
I stopped when I saw the kitchen light on, the fresh smell of tea lingering in the air. A loud breath of relief escaped my lungs as I leaned over my knees, my heart pounding in my ears. I straightened and shivered when a I felt a salty breeze brush my arm. I glanced around and saw the porch door open. I walked over and smiled when I saw a familiar blond head sticking up from one of the arm chairs. I walked over and began to stroke the head, sliding my fingers through her soft locks. Ariel jumped a bit at my sudden presence, but she quickly relaxed, my hand massaging her scalp.
“I got scared when I woke up and you weren’t there…” I said and she sighed, reaching up to squeeze my hand. “I know, I’m sorry. I just have a lot on my mind.” I glanced down at her and she was tightly gripping her mug with both hands. “About…..her?”
She nodded, taking a calming sip of tea. She was so scared and small. I took her tea and placed in on the table in front of her. I pulled her to her feet, slipping the blanket from her shoulders. “What are we doing?” She asked, rubbing her bare arm with one hand, the other outstretch to hold onto mine as I lead her down the dim lighted stairs. “Let’s go on a walk.” She gave me a surprised smile as our bare feet touched soft sand. I saw her painted toes wiggles happily and I laughed. I brought her under my arm, feeling her snuggle into my side, making my heart do a jump for joy. We walked for a bit, laughing and kicking sand at each other. I abruptly swung her around so she was in front of me, her toes brushing against my leg as she stood on my feet. She went on tip toe to giver herself more height as our lips meant, sending fireworks through my very soul. She fisted my shirt by the shoulders, mine by her hips as the kiss became hard and passionate. But gradually, her arms slipped comfortably around my neck as my came around her waist. We both smiled as the first rays of the rising sun streaked across the water, hitting our intertwined faces.
Sasha’s POV:
I grimaced, lowering the binoculars. This is gross. Usually when they kiss, it was behind closed curtains, not right in front of me. I hated Ariel; she had Niall wrapped around her little finger, and he didn’t seem to care! Hot, wild anger ripped at me as I stumbled from my spying perch on the dunes, my knees buckling on the sandy pavement of a parking lot. I gripped the sides of my head, my anger and rage becoming too much for me to control. I turned sharply and whipped my binoculars at a nearby car. It smashed the driver’s window, splintering the window into a hundred pieces of crystal. They clattered to the ground as the car alarm went screeching through the air. I turned and back to my parked Ducati 848, gunning the engine and slipping the helmet over my head, securing the visor over my eyes. I glanced back at the beach entrance one more time. Niall and Ariel must have heard the alarm, and would probably go investigate so I had to get out of here. I zipped out of the parking lot, tearing down the road.
I would be back to see Niall again, and this time, I was taking Ariel down.
