Charlie Gillespie Imagines

i promise that i'll love you for the rest of my life

Charlie was head over heels in love with you. But he had yet to actually tell you. Well today he was going to change that. He really wanted to plan this whole cute day where you have things planned looking back at your relationship so far but Charlie liked simple so he was just gonna head over to your apartment and try and find the right words to say.

He was on his way to surprise you when you had sent him a text saying you missed him. He smiled at his phone before heading into the local grocery store to pick up a small bouquet of flowers. They didn't have your favorite so he went with the second best choice of white roses. Satisfied with his choice he grabbed them and checked out before heading back on the road to your apartment. Not before texting you back saying he missed you too. One short ride later and he parked his car, grabbed the flowers, guitar and his backpack and headed up to see his girl.

He skipped up the stairs to the second floor where you were located and knocked on your door. He is mentally thanking himself that you didn't have a peep hole on your door so you couldn't see it was him just yet. He anxiously stood there flowers in one hand as he was wiping his sweaty palm on the other hand onto his pants. The door opened and before he knew it you were jumping into his arms.

"Charlie!" You exclaim as he wraps his one arm around you walking into your apartment closing the door behind him. You stayed there for a second burying your face in his neck. Thinking about how you just texted him like 5 minutes ago saying you missed him.

"Hi baby, missed me that much?" He joked giving you a squeeze before setting you down. You nodded wrapping your arms around his neck and kissing him. He smiles into the kiss thinking how much he loved you and couldn't wait to tell you.

"These are for you." He says once you two pull away. You look down and see the bouquet of white roses in his hand and your heart melted. You grab them from him and smell them holding the cheesiest smile on your face looking back up at Charlie.

"I love them, thank you bubba." You say going to find a vase and some water to put the flowers in so they can have a home on your counter.

"I'm so glad you came over. I was really missing you." You say wrapping your arms back around his neck playing with his hair that was just about neck length. You loved it.

"I missed you too, why do you think I decided to come over." He says looking at you so lovingly holding your waist.

"Plus you look pretty dang good in my hoodie." He says winking at you as you giggle.

"Stay the night with me?" You ask

"How'd I know you were going to ask? I already had my bag packed." He says referring to his backpack that was on the couch. You smiled as he smiled right back at you.

"I'm glad you can read my mind." You say as he kissed your forehead.

"There's a new song I just learned on my guitar that I wanna show you." He says, grabbing his guitar as the two of you sat on the couch. He took a deep breath and started strumming the chords to Niall Horan's 'Black and White'

"That first night we were standing at your door

Fumbling for your keys, then I kissed you

Ask me if I want to come inside

'Cause we didn't want to end the night

Then you took my hand, and I followed you

Yeah, I see us in black and white

Crystal clear on a star lit night

In all your gorgeous colors

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life

See you standing in your dress

Swear in front of all our friends

There'll never be another

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life"

His voice always mesmerized you. It always calmed you down. But this time it made your heart beat 10 times faster. He always meant whatever he sang. Did he really mean this?

"Now, we're sitting here in your living room

Telling stories while we share a drink or two

And there's a vision I've been holding in my mind

We're 65 and you ask

"When did I first know?" I always knew

Yeah, I see us in black and white

Crystal clear on a star lit night

In all your gorgeous colors

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life

See you standing in your dress

Swear in front of all our friends

There'll never be another

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life

I want the world to witness

When we finally say I do

It's the way you love

I gotta give it back to you

I can't promise picket fences

Or sunny afternoons

But, at night when I close my eyes

I see us in black and white

Crystal clear on a star lit night

There'll never be another

I promise that I'll love ya

I see us in black and white

Crystal clear on a star lit night

In all your gorgeous colors

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life

See you standing in your dress

Swear in front of all our friends

There'll never be another

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life

There'll never be another

I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life"

By the end of the song you were in tears, not only did you love the song but you loved the man who was singing straight to you. Once he finished and put his guitar down his eyes finally met yours. Hand reaching for your face to wipe your tears away.

"I guess with that song was a way to help me confess my love for you. I love you Y/N, so so much." He says now holding your face as you hold onto his arms that were holding your face, His thumb gently caressing your cheek.

"I love you Charlie, so much it's actually so insane to me. I never knew I could love anyone the way that I love you. And man, saying that outloud feels so good."You say as he let out a sigh of relief. Pulling your face closer to his he said it one more time.

"I love you." He said before kissing you with all he's got. You kissed back just as much moving your hands from his arms to his hair. Tangling your fingers in it. He pulls away and rests his forehead against yours.

"I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life."
