Infinity | n.h |

Prologue

8th grade

We are laying underneath the stars, I'm not too sure why though. I've never been sure as to why we do this. Niall and I do this a lot. We've done this since we were in Kindergarten. It's now the end of our 8th grade year.We've known each other practically our whole lives since our moms know each other. But Niall didn't move here until he was 5, he moved from Ireland to San Francisco.

Back to the star thing, we tend to do this when one of us or the both of us are going through something tough and life gets hard. But today nothing bad has happened.

"Niall, can I ask you something?" I question him. I'm scared to see how he's gonna react to this, but it's worth it. At least I hope it's worth it.

" Of course you can Ari, you can ask me anything." He says as he turns to me sitting up and gives me a smile. I return the smile and sit up as well.

"Do you promise that no matter what happens we'll stay best friends forever,for infinity?" I question him, messing with my hands that are sat on my lap. I don't know why I'm so nervous, just as I am sucked in by my thoughts I feel someone lift up my chin so I'm now facing them, that some is niall.

"Aria, if I have to, I'll say this a million times so then your fully aware. How many nights does it take to count the stars? Endless amounts of nights right?" He asks.I nod my head in response.

"Those endless nights are forever, and forever is our friendship. I will always cherish this friendship for infinity and we will stay best friends for infinity. I promise you that." He says, never breaking eye contact while saying what he has to say.

All I can do is nod, I am literally at loss for his words. I just hope that one day I'll be able to share with him the love I have for him.

He brings me into a hug. My head rests on his chest as our arms stay wrapped around each other. I just cry and cry because lately, I've been thinking of the though of losing him. I can't lose my niall.

"Thank you niall, I don't wanna lose you,ever." I murmur into the hug. "Me either Ari, me either." He responds.
