Louis

I felt so weak. So tired. So broken. And I couldn't do anything about it. I tried to swallow but my throat was dry. I took a deep breath and turned onto my side. I saw the snow falling down and it was beautiful. All I could think of was the song Baby Please Come Home. And it hurt. It wasn't even Christmas and it hurt. I wanted to stop thinking. I wanted to stop feeling. But it was as if I deserved to feel this way. I did deserve it. I deserved it for thinking he could love me. I'm not worth it. He deserves someone so much better. And he seems to be finding it fairly well.

"Louis, get up please." Niall begged. I looked at him. And I couldn't even muster a smile. Not even a, 'I'm fine Nialler.' He looked so worried. And I felt bad for it, but no one understood what it was like having to go through that.

"Louis please!" He cried. I turned away and watched the snowflakes fall down. It's funny how it's said that every snowflake is different. Because they all look the same. Then again, every relationship looks the same, but they're all different. I just want to get out of here.

"Niall, would you miss me if I was gone?" I asked. My voice was raspy and hoarse from not talking.

"W-what do you mean Louis? You don't mean you're going to-." He cut himself off.

"Yeah, I do. But Niall come 'ere." I said. I could hear him choking back sobs. He sat in the edge of the bed and he took my hand.

"Y-yes Louis?" He asked sobbing. I ran my free hand through his blonde hair.

"Do you ever wanna just go outside and stand in the snow and watch it fall?" I asked. He sniffled.

"Yeah. Sometimes. To watch how it falls so softly on everything, and just rests peacefully." He said. That was what I was thinking.

"Louis you can't go. I'd miss you too much. Whatever it is you're going through, I'll help you. Just please don't go." He begged. I thought about what he said. I felt awful for making him feel that way, but I felt worse. Completely worse.

"Niall, you don't understand-." I tried. He squeezed my hand.

"No! You don't understand! You don't know what it's like watching someone you love, die right before your eyes and there's nothing you can do!" He said. I pulled him into a hug. He cried into my neck. I tried swallowing again, but it felt like it was even more dry than before.

"Let me help you, Louis! I could be so much better than that arse who left you like this!" Niall cried. That stung. It really did. But for some reason what hurt worse was the fact that Niall was really torn up over this. I sighed and rubbed his back. Poor Niall.... Wait. I have an idea.

"Niall?" I asked. He sniffled and looked up at me.

"Yes?" He breathed.

"I have a proposition for you." I said.

"What?" He asked.

"I'll give you five days to make me fall in love with you. And if you don't then I'm going. But if you do, I'll stay. And I'll he with you." I said. He looked at me. He searched my face.

"Louis, that's too short. What if I don't do it? I wouldn't be able to live without you." Niall said. I laced my fingers through his.

"I have faith in you. But if I go. I'll always be with you Niall. You've always been my favorite." I whispered. He smiled.
