I wake up at ten a.m. I go down stairs and find a note wrote for me.
At the charity shop around the corner. Pop around if you want X
Her hand writing is beautiful and swirly. I go upstairs and get dressed. I apply some makeup and then go back downstairs to the kitchen. I look in the cupboards to find some breakfast but all my Nan had was porridge and I'm not really a porridge fan. I take out some money from my purse and find the spare key hanging up. I take it and then I leave to go to McDonalds. A crappy breakfast but free wifi.
It takes me a while to find McDonalds in the maddening crowds. I should have known that the city centre would be busy on a Saturday. Why would Ireland be any different from Britain?
I eventually find McDonalds and it is by far too busy far to busy for my liking but I go in anyway. I only buy a muffin but that was filling enough. I find a small table in next to the window where it is cool. I log onto the wifi and find a hundred messages from my brother.
*I'm fine. Don't worry fat head!!* I send to him and the check my twitter. Why did my life resolve around twitter all the time.
I don't have any new notifications on my twitter which isn't that unusual. I pick at my muffin until it is mostly gone.
A banner pops up across the top of my phone screen. I quickly tap it to reveal a message.
*You didn't seem like a person who ate breakfast at McDonalds.* It's a message from Niall which confuses me on the highest level.
*Huh?* I ask simply.
*Muffins are not a healthy breakfast.*
*How do you know what I'm eating?* I start to look around.
*Outside.* I turn my head and I see someone stood there with a hoodie on with a pair of RayBans. The person waves and I wave back.
*Hi.* He sends me.
*Hi.* I reply as I stand up and walk outside towards Niall.
Niall takes off his sunglasses and smiles.
"Your family live in Ireland?" I ask even though I know the answer.
"I thought my accent might have given it away slightly." He winks with a cheesy grin.
"I don't pick up on the obvious." I say truthfully.
"No joke. Anyway, lets go. I'm trying to avoid stalkers." I follow him to I have no idea where but it is extremely crowded with plenty of hiding spots.
The place was big and was filled with too many shops to count. Most of them I had never heard of. My heart starts beating faster as people push pass me. I didn't like situations I couldn't get out of and I was pretty much stuck in an unknown place with someone who was practically a stranger. I swallowed and bit down on my lower lip as I tried to squeeze past people. I felt my hand start shaking with my phone. I hold my phone tighter as we get closer to the centre of the shopping centre. This seems to be the busiest place and I lose sight of Niall. I understood why he wore hoodies. I bite my lip harder and half walk half jog to wall of the shopping centre.
I keep walking until I find a quieter place and then I stop walking to try and catch my breathe. I sigh and look at the maddening crowd. I couldn't enter that again.
I start walking away from it when something grabs me. I flinch and jump away. I turn around to see who it was.
"Where did you go?" Its Niall. I relax a little.
"Sorry. I don't like crowds." I say not wanting to elaborate.
"Doors are this way." He says and leads me out into the cool breeze. I relax even more now that I'm away from that many people.
"So how long are in Ireland for?" Niall asks, obviously just trying to make casual conversation.
"I don't know. I got into an argument with my mum. Things went bad fast." I say truthfully.
"What are you doing tonight?"
"Probably watching something with my Nan."
"Let me take you out?"
"Excuse me?" I half spit out in shocks.
"Let me take you out?" He repeats.
"Where?"
"Nando's at seven. I'll pick you up."
"What do you where to Nando's with an international famous person?" I ask probably over thinking things.
"Normal clothes like if it wasn't an international famous person." Niall grins. I bite the skin on my lips.
"Okay." What was I thinking? He seems shocked at my answer which is cute. I tell him where my Nan lives and he seems to know where that is luckily.
We say bye and then I realise I have no idea which way to go. I decide to walk up. Pretty sure there was a McDonald's sign up there.
