I Won't Give Up (A Niall Horan Fan Fiction)

Five Years

Author's note: I feel freaking terrible that I can't update more often. :/ I really want to, but I just don't have the time. I might have some extra time coming up though. If I get it, I'll update as often as possible. :) Well, here's chapter 18!! :)

Natalie's POV

The whole day Niall has been planning for tonight. He said he's taking me somewhere special. It's pushing 5 o'clock and he said we'd be leaving around 6:30. I went to begin looking for an outfit. As soon as I opened my suitcase, I found a note.

"Wear the outfit hanging up in the closet."

I walked over and opened the closet. There was a pair of white cut offs, a Westlife shirt, and white Converse. I wore almost the same outfit to the Westlife concert when we went to the concert as kids. After I changed in the bathroom I walked out to see Niall standing in our hotel room wearing white Nike Air Force Ones, camo shorts, and a Westlife shirt.

Niall's POV

She looked as beautiful as ever. I knew she was going to love this date. It was perfect for five years with an amazing girl. It was simple, yet special.

"Well, where are you taking me tonight my fine prince?" She said in a terrible Irish accent.

"Follow me, love." I said with a laugh.

We got into the van and drove to a lake in a very small town in Illinois. It was extremely similar to Brookville Lake where I gave her the beautiful ring on her left hand that would one day be a gorgeous wedding ring.

"Niall... It's.... It's..."

"Just like Brookville?"

"Yeah... Just like Brookville." She said with a smile.

"That's why I picked it."

We walked over to the boat rental and got a pontoon. Paul was still with us so that he could drive for us. As we got on the boat Paul moved towards the front to the wheel and we remained in the back.

"You don't get your gift until we get to the middle of the lake."

"Just like when we were kids." She said smiling towards the ground.

"Exactly."

"Well, Mr. Horan, you get your's now."

She handed me a small-ish box. I opened it up to see guitar picks. They were special though. They all had a memory, a story, a moment between us on them. One had the Nandos logo. Another had the outline of two young kids kissing. There were so many with so many memories. I wrapped my arms around her tightly and pulled back enough to kiss her sweetly.

"Thanks Princess. I'll have to use these on tour."

"You're welcome Nialler. I'm glad you like them."

We got closer and closer to the middle of the lake. Natalie walked over to the edge of the boat and that was my cue. I wasn't for sure if she was doing it on purpose to reenact a moment from our childhood or whether it was just coincidence, but either way, it was perfect. I walked up behind her and our my arms around her.

"You really want your present?"

"Yeah!" She turned around to look up at me with a gorgeous smile.

Her braces were off which just made her smile even more beautiful, but I'll always miss that crooked smile from that pretty little girl who now stands in front of me as a beautiful young woman.

As I got into my pocket and pulled out her bracelet her face lit up.

"Niall! It's gorgeous!"

There were five charms on it. A softball, a football(soccer ball), a ring, the 1D logo, and a Taylor Swift charm. I put it on her left wrist since she was right handed.

"Each year up to our tenth anniversary, I WILL add another charm."

She gave me a long and passionate kiss. I could feel every once of love she had for me in that kiss and I made sure to return it. When she pulled away, neither of us could stop smiling.

"Happy anniversary Niall James Horan. I love you."

"HAPPY ANNIVERSARY NATALIE NICOLE NICHOLSON!! I LOVE YOU!!!"

"Why'd you yell it Nialler?"

"I just wanna tell the world that you're mine."

Author's note: I don't know about you guys, but I really loved this chapter. It was just cute and maybe Niall came up with the lyrics from They Don't Know About Us. Haha. I just thought they fit really well right there and honestly that song like perfectly describes this chapter. :)
