Niall Horan Fanfic Chapter 8: Everything Falls Apart
“You can’t be with me?” Niall whispered.
“Well we hardly ever talk and you’re always mad at me so yeah…I can’t be with you.” I said starting to cry.
“Well fine! Just leave then!” he said back crying harder than I’ve ever seen him.
    I started for the door when I felt his hand on my wrist. It sent tingles through my whole body. I loved him so much and couldn’t just let him go like this.
“Wait,” he said, “We can work this out? Please?” he said.
“If you decide to talk to me and tell me the real reason you’re mad, then yes but if not and you’re just going to get all defensive like you have been lately then no. I’ll leave Niall.” I said through my tears.
“Let me explain.” He said.
“I’m listening.” I said back.
“I should have stood up for you from the start, when you first started getting hate. I’m mad at myself for letting you leave. It’s my fault you were in that plane crash. If I hadn’t let you got that never would have happened. I’m mad at myself for letting you go. You were knocked out cold for almost a month and I was scared you wouldn’t make it. Every day I sat and watched you, and you never got any better. I thought every day how I could make it on without you. When they pulled the plug on you, you died. I couldn’t bear not having you around. All the times we had together rushed back to me. How we first met, everything. I love you so much Hazel. And when they brought you back, you were okay, but it’s my job to protect you and make sure that nothing bad ever happens to you again. You went to dance and I thought for sure you would get hurt. Hazel I can’t stand the silence between us, and this whole fighting thing. I hate it. I love you so much and please if you give me another chance I won’t screw things up. I swear.” He said.
“Niall I love you, and I hate all this just as much as you, I guess I could have been more careful with what I was doing. I’m sorry to put you through all this. I know how scared and freaked out I would be if I were in the position of losing you. I love you more than anything in the world and can’t picture me without you.” I said.
    He grabbed my arms and pulled me into a tight hug. Something I hadn’t felt in a while. He kissed me and we just stood there hugging for the longest time. Being in his arms was like being in another world. He made me feel so safe and I just wanted the moment to last forever. Niall ran his fingers through my hair and placed his hand lightly on my cheek. I was still crying. He wiped away my tear and made small circles on my cheeks with his thumb.
“I was being a real jerk wasn’t I?” he said.
“No, well sort of, yeah.” I said.
    He looked deep into my eyes and I couldn’t tell what he was thinking. I just wanted him to hug me again. He grabbed my hands and placed his forehead on mine.
“Do you ever think of leaving me?” He asked.
“Niall, don’t talk like that.” I said.
“Well do you?” he asked again.
“No, only recently when we got into this huge fight, but Niall I’m nothing without you. You’re my better half.” I said smiling.
“Will you promise me something?” he whispered.
“What?” I asked.
“That you’ll never leave me. Not just break up leave me, like when I’m on tour you’ll always be there and when I’m home you’ll always be there. When I wake up in the morning you’re there and the last person I see every night is you because you’ll always be there.” He said.
“As long as you never leave me, I’ll always be here for you.” I said giving him my pinky.
“I promise.” He said wrapping his pinky around mine.
“Me too.” I said.
He grabbed my waist and pulled me back into his arms. He rested his head on my shoulder and I rubbed his back. He picked me up and carried me into our room. We laid down in bed and he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me as close to him as I could get. I turned into him and laid my head on his chest. He kissed my head and said, “Goodnight princess.”
“Goodnight Niall.” I said back.
“I love you.” He whispered in my ear.
“I love you too.” I said nestling my head on him.
    We fell asleep like that. I was so glad things were good with us again. I don’t know what I would’ve done without him around.
