Katy meets a hot young lad named Niall at a pub one night on her tour of Ireland. The two quickly fall in love, but their romance has many twists and turns. This is their story.
Niall found himself at the airport agin saying goodbyes to his love. Except this time, he was the one that was leaving. He and Katy had made a plan about how they were going to communicate this time though. Katy had even scheduled another visit to Mullingar in two months.
The other lads had left two say before, because they wanted to give the happy couple some time alone.
Now Niall was at the airport getting ready to fly back home, and Katy was here to say goodbye and to see him off. A wave of familiarity hit the couple as realization dawned on them that they had done this once before.
"Call me when you get home," Katy said as Niall approached the security gate.
"Of course," Niall responded, "I'll see you in two months I guess?" he stated, though it came out sounding like a question.
"Yep, I can't wait until then."
"Me neither."
"Goodbye kiss?" Katy asked with hopeful eyes.
Instead of a verbal response, Niall pulled Katy forward and gave her the deepest and most meaningful goodbye kiss that he could muster.
"God I love you," Katy smiled.
"Back at ya," Niall did finger-guns before stepping into the security line.
This was the moment that tears started to form in his eyes. Once again, he would be without the possible love of his life for many months. The only way they could see each other is through a phone or computer screen.
He quickly tried to blink the tears away, because he was not about to break down in the middle of the security check at the San Francisco airport. The tears however, had other plans.
Immediately, the tears were flowing down Niall's face as he tried to wipe them away with the back of his hand. People were already starting to give him strange looks (mainly children. Why did they have to be so goddamn judgmental?). A few people looked at him sympathetically.
Loud sobs threatened to escape his body, as the tears made their down his face. The old woman who was standing in front of him turned around to face him. "Who was she?" the old woman asked.
"What?" Niall was confused as to why a random old lady was talking to him. And how did she even know that his troubles were from a heterosexual relationship.
"You're upset because of a girl?" she inquired.
"Y-yeah. I think she's the love of my life, but we aren't going to see each other for a couple of months!" Niall sobbed.
"Long distance can be hard."
"I-I live in Ireland, and s-she lives he-re." Sobs continued to rack Niall's body.
The old woman then enveloped Niall into a hug. He buried his face in her neck as she rubbed small soothing circles on his back. The entire scene must have looked incredibly strange to an outsider. An old woman holding a grown man, who was sobbing his eyes out in the middle of the security check line at an airport. Now that Niall thought about it, it wasn't the most normal situation he's ever been in.
...
Niall was currently boarding the plane. He had parted ways with the old lady when they had to go to their separate gates. At least now Niall had calmed down a little bit.
All of the thoughts that were running through his head kept coming back to Katy, and how they could never really be together. They lived thousands of miles apart, not even on the same continent. He couldn't just leave everyone in Mullingar to be with her. And he certainly could never ask her to leave her home in San Francisco.
They were really in a pickle, weren't they?
Throughout the plane ride, Niall contemplated his complicated relationship with Katy. They weren't going to break up, there wasn't any reason too. It's not like the distance was causing any issues.
A couple of hours later, Niall's plane landed and he greeted Louis at the gate.
"Where's Harry?" Niall wondered.
"He's at the hospital," Louis answered casually.
Niall was alarmed by this, "Hospital?"
Louis just rolled his eyes. "Have you forgotten he works there, dumbass," Louis hit the back of Niall's head.
"Ow, What'd you do that for?" Niall rubbed the back of his head.
"Anyways," Louis continued, "I need your help with something."
"What do you need my help with?"
Louis smiled as he pulled something out of his pocket. It was a ring with a thin gold band, and a grayish blue, diamond shaped gem in the center. An engagement ring.

Niall's eyes widened when he saw it. "YES YES YES YES!" Niall screamed.
"Calm down mate," Louis chuckled as he put the ring back in his pocket, "You're not the one i'm proposing to."
Niall tried his best to calm down, but it was nearly impossible. His best friend was getting married for christ's sake!
"I need you to help me plan the proposal," Louis said.
