The final credits roll on the screen as everyone begins to pile out of the theater.

Niall moves to the side mumbling an 'after you' to Jade, then walks closely behind her.

Throughout the whole night, Jade kept gazing secretly at him with the corner of her eyes. And Niall might have screamed internally. He was freaking out, because he just couldn't wrap his head around the idea of him on a date with the love of his life. It sounded too good to be true, and maybe it was. No, it wasn't. Anyways, Niall kept squirming in his seat, wanting to strike up a conversation. He's such a dork, right? Who even talks during a movie date? It's ridiculous. But little does he know, that Jade wanted to do the same thing. Maybe, both of them didn't really watch the movie.

When both of them get out to the fresh air, Niall debates on holding Jade's hand or not. He's too scared to do it, so he doesn't.

"That movie was great, yeah?" Niall smiles gazing at her briefly, then looking forward while walking.

"Yeah.." She trails. "What was it about again?" Jade's cheeks glow in embarrassment at her blurted out question, and she feels more self-conscious when Niall bursts out laughing.

Niall notices how embarrassed Jade looks so he eases the tension, "Don't worry, I wasn't paying attention either." He grins stupidly.

"Oh." Jade smiles shyly, her cheeks still glowing.

"You're a great guy." Jade grins.

Niall's insides burst with joy, his heart accelerating to an unhealthy pace. Holy shit.

"Thank you so much." Niall smiles very widely. "You're amazing too,"

Niall asks once they cross the street to get to Jade's neighborhood, "Do you have any plans tomorrow?"

Oh, Jade thinks. She gulps, "I've got work." She furrows her eyebrows, shrugging her shoulders.

Niall frowns, because he knows Jade can and always ditches her work whenever she wants. He just doesn't understand why she said she has work tomorrow. Does she enjoys work more than his company? Niall frowns again at that thought.

"I'll see you around or something." Jade smiles uneasily, her hand wrapping around the doorknob of her house.

"Y-Yeah, sure, of course." Niall grins very widely, as they hold eye contact.

Niall steps one step closer to Jade's body, two steps, three steps—

Jade shouts, "I should get going! I'll text you, yeah?"

Niall feels a sting in his heart, as he frowns deeply at her sudden reaction. He only nods his head, two words flowing his mind.

No kiss?
