《Something Unimaginable (Niall Horan Fanfic) Book 3》Pretty Much The CIA
Advertisement
Kiersten:
I was lying on the floor in living room of Harry and Louis' flat with Niall and Harry. We were all just drunk enough to find everything hilarious.
Louis and Eleanor had gone to visit Louis' family. Leaving the three of us to go out together which was always an adventure. But we made it the whole night without Liam or Paul being called!
We had stopped at a store on the way back and picked up a bunch of random things. We got a scary movie, coloring books, crayons, snacks, Harry picked out a slinky, and Niall insisted that we all needed the furry panda hats.
So I was sitting on the floor trying to make Harry's face into a tiger face using crayons, which wasn't working well for me.
Niall walked into the room with a giant bowl of popcorn in his hands. He plopped down next to me, "Babyyyy what are you doing?" He asked laughing and pulling the orange crayon from my hands.
"Nooo!!! Harold needs to be a tiger!" I yelled reaching for the crayon and falling face first into Niall's lap.
Harry tried growling but it sounded more like a baby kitten. Then he turned his head to look at us, "Whoa! If you guys are gonna do that at least leave the room." He yelled slapping his hands over his eyes.
I just laughed and sat up, pulling the bowl of popcorn into my lap. I rested my back against the couch and Harry and Niall slipped in on either side.
The movie started and after a while Niall leaned over and whispered, "I like holding your hand in the popcorn. It's cute." I was really confused, I wasnt holding his hand.
A few minutes later Harry whispered, "Are you really that scared that you need to hold my hand?"
I looked down at the bowl and bit my lip to keep from laughing. I grabbed my phone and snapped a picture of their hands in the bowl together. And then tweeted it. @kierstencliff: Cute Narry moment! Holding hands in the popcorn bowl! How adorable!
As soon as I tweeted I let out a loud laugh. Harry and Niall both looked at me, "You guys are holding hands!" I said between laughter.
They quickly jerked their hands away from each other and refused to look at each other for the next hour. Niall laced his fingers with mine.
The movie was almost over and someone jumped towards the screen screaming loudly. I screamed and threw my hands up to cover my eyes in the process throwing the bowl of popcorn in the air.
The movie ended and Harry flicked on on the light, revealing Niall and I covered in popcorn. We all laughed and Harry snapped a picture of us.
My phone buzzed with a Twitter notification. I had a list of about twenty people, who when they tweeted me I got notified. @Harry_Styles: @kierstencliff got a little scared and took it out on the popcorn. If Niall didn't love her so much he would not be happy about the waste of food.
I laughed and snuggled into Niall's chest. He slipped his arms around me and we laid down on the floor
Harry flopped down on the couch and soon I was a sleep.
I woke up to my phone ringing and groaned. Who was calling me at this hour? I grabbed it not bothering to look at who was calling. "Hello?"
"Did you know she was leaving me and Xara?" A hysteric voice asked.

I pulled the phone away from my face and blinked a couple of times trying to get my eyes to refocus. When it did I read Zayn across the screen. Well this sure sobered me up. "Z? What's going on?"
"R-Reyna left. She's gone."
"Jesus. I'll be right there. Don't move okay?" I said and Zayn just whimpered in response.
I hung up the phone and shook Niall, "Get up. We have to go to Zayn's."
"Noooo." Niall moaned.
"If you don't get up right now I will never kiss you again." I growled into his ear.
Niall shot up and I sat down on Harry's stomach. "Get up. We have to go!" I yelled in his face and his eyes opened.
"What the hell is going on? It's 5 am." Niall said rubbing his eyes.
"Reyna left Zayn." I said pulling Harry off the couch. We all ran out the door and down to Zayn 's flat.
The door was unlocked and Harry pushed it open. We raced around the house trying to find Zayn. We found him in the nursery holding a crying Xara in his arms with tears streaming down his cheeks.
I took Xara and calmed her town then set her in the swing. Harry and Niall stood awkwardly unsure of what to do. "Niall go call Liam. Harry go make Xara a bottle."
They both nodded and left the room. I pulled Zayn to me and we sat on the floor, his face in the crook of my neck. "It's going to be alright. We're all here for you. Shh. Shh. You're the best father in the world. You and Xara will be okay." I whispered rubbing his back.
To say I was feeling guilty was an understatement. I was the one who set them up. Zayn lifted his head and looked at me, "This isn't your fault you know." He said. "There was nothing you could've done. She brought me the best thing that's ever happened to me." He whispered gesturing to the sleeping baby.
I just kissed his cheek and continued rubbing his back. Three boys returned and Harry picked Xara up and began feeding her.
Zayn wiped his eyes and pulled away from me. "No more crying. I've got a daughter to take care of and we've got a tour." He said standing up.
I stood up and wrapped my arms around him. "You don't have to be strong, Z. We understand."
Zayn just shrugged, "I'll be okay. I've got the prefect girls in my life. My mum, my sisters, my daughter, and you." He said squeezing me tightly.
I watched Niall shift uncomfortably. Niall is a very possessive boy. He doesn't like to share, anything. Especially not me, well me and food.
I walked over to him and slipped my arms around his torso. I kissed him lightly. "I'm yours. All yours," I whispered.
"Mmm." Niall hummed, "Niall doesn't share." He said pulling me closer to him.
I pulled away feeling bad for Zayn. He smiled at me, "I'll see you guys later okay? Do you guys think you can still take Xara tonight? I've got some stuff to take care of."
"Of course!" I said kissing his cheek and kissing Xara's forehead. The boys all hugged Zayn and gave Xara kisses.
We made our way out of his flat and we all stood outside talking.
"He took that weirdly well." Liam said finally.
"He's faking it for Xara, and for the band. He knows that her well being is more important than dwelling on her. And you guys are starting a seven month tour. He needs to be focused." I said yawning.

"Come on princess, let's go back to sleep." Niall said scooping me up bridal style.
I kissed Harry and Liam on the cheek and snuggled closer to Niall. "Close your eyes." He said and I gently shut them. I heard him open the door and flick on the lights. He set me down on something soft, "Don't open your eyes yet." He said and then I heard foot steps walking away from me.
The reddish glow from the light being on but my eyes being closed suddenly went away. "You can open your eyes now beautiful." The deep Irish accent that I love so much whispered in my ear.
I opened my eyes slowly and gasped. I found myself on an air mattress in the middle of Niall furniture-less living room. On the ceiling were tons of glow in the dark stars. I looked at Niall, "You did this?"
He nodded and played with my fingers, "I heard you talking up Samie about how you missed the stars in Wisconsin, and it's kind of hard to find them in the middle of the city. So I brought them here." He said smiling his Niall smile.
I said nothing and jumped on him crashing our lips together. "I'll take it you like it?" He asked chuckling into our kiss.
"Almost as much as I like you." I said tangling my fingers in his hair.
After a few minutes Niall pulled away, "As much as I love kissing you we should probably get some sleep since we're watching Tootie tonight."
I sighed and snuggled in next to him, he pulled a blanket over us and we fell asleep under the 'stars'.
I was sitting on the couch in Harry and Louis' flat grinning at my boyfriend. He had his legs in my lap and he was making silly faces at Xara who was lying on her back on his legs. "You're such a pretty girl, Tootie. Yes you are." He cooed and she watched him with wide eyes.
He looked up and caught me watching them, "Aren't you supposed to be doing an interview for Pixie?" He teased. And it was true. I was answering questions for Pixie magaizne over email.
"Sorry. My gorgeous boyfriend and an equally gorgeous baby in his lap are rather distracting." I said sticking my tongue out at him.
"I read somewhere that when you stick your tongue out at someone it means you want to kiss them." He said sticking his out at me.
"I've never wanted anything less in my life." I said turning back to my computer.
Niall removed his feet from my lap and I watched out of the corner of my eye as he placed Xara in the bouncy seat. I quickly turned back to me screen and saved the email as a draft before Niall shut it. He tossed it on the couch next to me.
He put one arm on the arm rest next to me and the other one on the back of the couch by my head. He leaned in so his face was really close to mine, "You're an awful liar." He whispered bringing his face closer to mine so our lips were just about touching.
If I just titled my head up our lips would be touching. But I was too stubborn for that to happen. I looked into his ocean blue eyes and wanted to scream. He was looking at me with that gaze that makes me feel like I'm the most gorgeous girl ever.
Whenever he looks at me like that I always kiss him to get him to stop. "You know you want to kiss me." He whispered, our lips brushing slightly. I felt chills run down my spine and I just about broke. But thankfully Xara saved me.
I shot out from under Niall's arm and scooped her up, bouncing her a little. She just wanted to be held, she loved attention.
Three hours later Xara should've been asleep but she wasn't. There was a knock on the front door and Niall answered it. I watched at Xara's eyes flew open at the sound of Zayn's voice. Her eyes searched frantically for him and he stood behind me and her eyes changed from an sagey green to a bright emerald color, she was happy to see him. "Hi baby girl." He cooed picking her up. He kissed my cheek, "Thank you."
"Of course, it was no problem." I said smiling up at him.
"If you're not busy tomorrow do you think you could come over and help me pack for her?"
"Of course, Z. Niall's going in to work with Savan tomorrow anyway."
"Okay see you tomorrow then!" He said walking towards the door. "Bye, Nialler!" He yelled towards the kitchen.
Niall yelled a goodbye with a mouth full of food.
I got up and walked into the kitchen, wrapping my arms around him and kissing the back of his neck. He spun around and grinned that heart melting smile. He kissed me and wrapped his arms around me. "Please don't hate me when I say this. It's really more towards myself then you, but I really wish you were shorter then me. So you have to stand on your tiptoes to kiss me."
I smirked, "You mean like Demi would?" I quickly walked away to get ready for bed and so Niall couldn't do anything about my comment
Niall groaned behind me, "That's not funny!" He yelled after me.
I snuggled into bed with him after we both got ready for bed and he kissed my forehead. "I love you." I whispered.
"I love you, too. So much." He whispered. And I fell asleep at those words.
The next day Niall visited Savan to work on his vocals, I helped Zayn pack for Tootie and then Niall and I dropped Frank and the kittens off at Maz's house. He was watching all of the animals, like Eleanor's puppy and Liam's turtles, while we were on tour.
"Are you two sure you're going to be okay?" Harry asked as we all walked into the American X-Factor building.
"We'll be fine." I said giving him a smile but I wasn't sure at all. I was nervous, Demi was crazy who knew what she might do to me. She's been out of control lately. She called me a homewrecker on national television. At least it was on Chelsea Lately, which I had been on the week before her. I became friends with Chelsea, who ended up standing up for me, by laughing at Demi, and reminding her that her and Niall weren't even together.
Niall pulled me closer to him as we stepped inside. I spotted her right away standing next to Simon. She had on a pair of red acid wash jeans, a leather studded corset top, a cropped bleached jean vest, and leopard print wedges. Her hair was in a high pony with a giant leather band wrapped around the top making it stick out a few inches from her head.
My out fit consisted of a pair of skinny jeans, a blue Duke cutoff tank top with the top of my lemon yellow sports bra showing on the sides a little, and a pair of white Supras. My turtle shell backpack was still on, and my Niall's Princess SnapBack, which yes, I wore on purpose. In fact Niall had his matching one on. None of us girls were dressed up because we had to come straight here after we got off the plane.
The boys had to go straight into rehersals, since this would be the first time they would perform they would perform their new single and they had choreography to go through. "See you later, boo." Niall said giving me a long kiss right in front of Demi and running off to catch up to the boys.
"I take Xara back to hotel." Rosa said.
"Why don't you all go?" Preston said, "You'll be bored sitting around here all day. Its only 10 am here. Just be sure to be back here by four ready for the show." He said leading us outside and getting us cabs.
Rosa, Xara, and Xara's personal security guard, David, all took one cab. While Bob, who was still traveling with me, Danielle, Eleanor, and I climbed into another.
Bob ushered us through the screaming fans and we all were showed our hotel rooms. Louis and Eleanor's were across the hall from the one I shared with Niall.
I walked in fumbling for the light switch, and walked straight into something, which knocked me over and as I tried to catch my balance I pulled something else down on top of me. I must of screamed because Eleanor bolted into the room flicking the light on. She busted out laughing as she found me lying on the floor covered in at least twenty-five pairs of Supras. She took a picture and helped me up, then left to go get ready. My phone buzzed with a twitter notification. @EleanorJCalder @kierstencliff @NiallOfficial Attack of the Supras!
My phone buzzed again and I saw a tweet from Niall, it was a reply to Eleanor's picture. @NiallOfficial @EleanorJCalder @kierstencliff Sorry babe :)
@kierstencliff @NiallOfficial Shouldn't you be rehearsing?
@NiallOfficial @kierstencliff Ya but I miss you come back t me soon, yeh?
@Real_Liam_Payne @kierstencliff Stop distractin @NiallOfficial!
@kierstencliff @Real_Liam_Payne sorry Li! @NiallOfficial I miss you too, boo boo! Focus and I'll see you soon! Xx
I dropped my phone into my purse changed into an off-white lace t-shirt tucked into a robbin's egg blue skirt and a light brown belt, with a pair of flat cream colored Oxford shoes. I left my hair straight, redid my make-up and grabbed my purse and went to find Danielle and Eleanor.
The three of us walked around Rodeo drive not buying anything just looking. We got some lunch then headed back to where the boys were.
We got there fifteen minutes early, Danielle went off to talk to some backup dancers, Bob had gone off to find some food, and since Eleanor is exactly like Lou, it was anyone's guess where she was. That left me alone and not having any idea where I was.
"Hey, I'm Brady." A guy who looked a few years older than me said, approaching me. He was kind of cute, but not really my type, you know cause he didnt look like Niall. He had a headset around his neck so I figured he was on the crew team.
"Hi, I'm Kiersten." I said being polite.
"Oh I know who you are. What are you doing alone? Did your boyfriend ditch you?"
"Uh no. He's in rehersal." I scoffed.
"They got out of rehersal half hour ago. He's probably banging Demi in a closet somewhere." He said scooting a little closer
"Um. Doubtful. Well I should probably go find them. Nice meeting you!"
"Hey wait." He said stepping in front of me, "Let me show you how good a real man can make you feel. I bet Neil can't do what I can do, baby."
I laughed, "No thank you." And then I ran. I wasn't afraid of him, I just thought it was more fitting if I ran.
I had no idea where I was going but I kept running, well until I ran into something. I looked up and saw Paul with a giant Coke stain on his white button up shirt. "Heeeey Paul! You look great today! Are you doing something different? Your skin looks amazing! New moisturizer? That shirt makes you look really muscly. You just look so good! How's you're day been?" I rambled on trying to make him not yell at me for spilling coke on his shirt and running through the venue.
Paul just laughed, "Come on, everyone's waiting for you. Niall's freaking out I don't think the boys can hold Demi back much longer." He said leading me down the hallway.
"I'm really sorry about your shirt Paul. It was an accident, promise!"
"It's alright, Kiersten. I've got another one. Have ta be prepared with you lot." He said chuckling to himself. "Does my skin really look good though? Because I did start using a new moisturizer and I kind of thought I was glowing this morning." He said as we stopped in front of a door.
I let out a loud laugh and stepped in. I spotted Niall on the other side of the room talking to Sandy. I also saw Demi making her way through the crowd towards him. She was almost there. I had to get there before she did.
I wove through the crowd as fast as possibly. Demi was two steps from Niall and I was three. And then my life saver, Zayn stepped in. "Hey, Demi!" He said smiling his charming smile. Demi scowled but decided not to be rude.
I made a mental not to thank Zayn later then pounced on Niall. "Hey beautiful." He said chuckling as I attacked his lips with mine.
I grabbed his face in my hands and opened my eyes and made eye contact with Demi. I pulled away and smiled at her. "Hey, Demi. Lovely to see you."
She rolled her eyes and stalked off and Niall laughed. "How was your day?" He slipped one arm around my waist as we were ushered out the door to go to dinner with everyone.
"Well it was eventful. I got attacked by Supras, Kiersten stop distracting Niall trended on Twitter, some guy wants to show me how good a real man can feel, I crashed into Paul and spilled Coke all over him. But he didn't tell at me because he loves me too much!"
"Don't press your luck." Paul said as he passed us to go yell at Louis who was perched on Harry's shoulders screaming Who Let The Dogs out at the top of his lungs.
"Oh and Paul got new moisturizer and thinks he's glowing!" I said and Niall chuckled but I could tell something was wrong. "What's wrong, babe?"
Niall shrugged, "I just don't like that I wasn't there to stop some creep from hitting on you."
"Ni, it's okay." I said kissing his cheek.
"Well what did you say?" He asked.
"I said no thank you then ran away. I'm yours. Always have been always will be." I said kissing his cheek again.
"Hey, babe. Don't forget about my offer." Scott said with a wink as we walked by him.

The Stars Have Eyes
The universe was a vast, empty, dark, and uncaring place. Then life happened, and the universe was changed forever. Only a teeny-tiny bit, but definitely different. Then again, the universe changes a teeny-tiny bit every second of every day. For instance, if someone were to get off the couch and randomly drink a glass of milk? Bam! One less glass of milk in the universe. Changed forever. Well, excluding any time-travel shenanigans, but anyone who puts a big old hole in the time-space continuum just to un-drink a glass of milk should really reevaluate their priorities. Unless, of course, they were attempting to prevent some massive catastrophe vis-a-vis said glass of milk. Such a scenario is by no means impossible, as one should never underestimate the importance of calcium. Another important tip for any life forms out there is to keep things in perspective. Some look at the vastness of creation in relation to themselves and go, ‘Man, this sucks!’ These people really need to narrow their focus. Sure, they will never affect anything happening on the other end of the galaxy, but so what? That’s way the heck over there, where it doesn’t matter. Therefore, in order to maintain a healthy mindset, it is important to narrow one’s perspective to the things and people that affect them, and that they can affect in turn. But what happens if one is an unfathomable cosmic being from beyond the veil of reality? What happens when such an existence is capable of influencing entire swathes of the universe just by its presence? A creature such as Magh'rathlak the Observer? That particular entity is only about average as far as reality-warping creatures from the dawn of time go, so its influence over the fabric of reality is rather limited. And it still struggles to keep things in perspective. That, among other things, is why it decided to narrow its worldview a bit by compressing the maddening vastness of its being into a single corporeal form. Magh'rathlak had never tried such a feat, but that wasn't about to stop it. After all, how hard could being human possibly be?

8 103{The Dragon Within} (Completed)
Meeting his fate at the hands of seven great heroes, the wicked drake now stands in Death's hall. Met with the Grim Reaper itself. Defeated and its pride broken, the drake doesn’t beg or grovel, it simply awaits judgement. It waits for the God of the afterlife to send it on its way, to either the heights of bliss and peace or where it knew it would be sent. The depths of agony and torture, the halls of Tartarus, the father of monsters. Grim looked up from its oaken desk and down at the creature that would have otherwise, if grown wiser and older, matched the reaper itself in power. Its faceless guise, hidden by a black hood and whirling shadows, it briefly stared at the drake. “You are unfit for the sky yet also too fit for the abyss,” Grim spoke, its voice a cracking whisper. “Your time came too soon, the actions you have taken will lead your world to ruin…Be reborn, pitiful serpent. Yet remember what you have done, see what your actions have made that realm into. Let me show you, how your greed and gluttony have warped such a wonderful place and time.” Grim raised its black-feathered pen towards the beast “Be reborn, as the weak pitiful creature you should have been born as. Take this both as a punishment and…a learning experience. For failure, can be the best teacher.” The drake took a step back, hoping to escape this cruel fate. Yet none escaped Death, less so its embodiment. Screaming shadows engulfed his form, ripping away at his body and shape. Fangs of darkness sinking deep into his draconic flesh, warping it, changing him into something else… Opening his eyes, the wicked drake felt none of its power, none of its magic and none of its might. As it stood at the edge of a cliff, looking down upon a ruined valley of rot and miasma. It glanced down at itself, seeing none of its sturdy scales or sharp claws. The drake had been reborn... As a Human. Will also be posting on CreativeNovels found here; CrN Where chapters will be posted earlier than RRL.

8 126Reigner’s Reincarnation
How would I describe my life so far? Born on Earth and grew up to become a salaryman. Working a dead-end job as a helpdesk service rep. The good news? I was run over while taking a shortcut home. Not really. I mean, I died but my life was not over. Or my life was over, but now I have another life. Anyway, I woke from darkness and found myself in a new world. Classes, levels, and magic, is real here… Only I can’t use it... at all. Magic has no impact on me. It all just looks like a bunch of visual effects through my eyes. Everyone else is having fun playing with mana while I’m stuck poking things with a stick. The world constantly rubs it in my face, showing off its magic. People around me are always flying, summoning creatures, or casting massive displays of magical fire, ice, and other elements. Honestly if you can’t tell, it was starting to get to me. This is my story of gaining access to mana, learning new spells, and exploring a magical world.
