Epilogue 

(Hope's P.O.V.) 

Five Years Later

I guess your all wondering about what happened between Niall and I. Hoping we got together and lived happily ever after. Got married, had kids. Lived that fairy tale I always wanted. 

Well in my fairy tale, that didn't quite happened. I haven't seen Niall, in five years. Although I did meet a guy awhile back but it just didn't feel the same. I thought he would of at least try to look for me...? 

Niall and his band are still today going strong. Still a big sensation. And yes, I have seen my brother when he comes back for holidays. Liam, Danielle, and I all spend it all together. (Mostly Liam and I) Oh and yes, Liam and Danielle finally got back together. Eleanor, Rachel and I were absolutely excited! 

And your probably thinking why I don't just see Niall then. But 1: I'm afraid he'll hate me for leaving. Or 2: I'm scared. Mostly number 2. And plus my Niall, has a girlfriend, named Sophie. 

Anyways let me tell you what happened in the last five years. Other than me missing Niall, my brother, and everyone else I met back in London. I actually had a great life here in New York. I graduated two years ago and got a degree in fashion. I work as a designer for Avon. We're pretty successful if you ask me. I just got a promotion about a week ago and they asked me to move my job all the way across the globe. And you'll never guess where... London. 

I was pretty nervous at first. I even was freaking out on the plane. The lady next to me kept giving me dirty looks but I couldn't help myself. 

Once I got back I said my hellos to my old friends and spent the night at Liam's. The day after Rachel allowed me to stay at her and Harry's place until I knew if I had to stay in London. My boss has some business up here and wasn't sure how long it would last. 

And by the way, Harry proposed to Rachel March 24th (One month ago) and are getting married August 13th! Although they fought, they were perfect. I was so happy and a bit jealous of them. Eleanor and Louis has been married for about a year now. Eleanor keeps telling me how she wants a baby but she isn't sure if Louis feels the same way. Perry and Zayn are still strong today too. I didn't think they would last. I mean they are adorable but you know, their both are in bands and stuff. I didn't think it would work out. But amazingly, it did. And I was happy for the both of them. 

When I woke up today the sun shined lightly through the windows and the birds chirped. I got up early this morning and walked to Starbucks. I decided to take my laptop and paperwork with me because I have a lot of work to do. And Harry told me the last time he was there, Starbucks was quiet and cozy.

"A small White chocolate mocha, iced." I told the young lady behind the counter. 

She pressed a few buttons on the register and responded, "That will be 3. 76 pounds." 

I nodded and pulled out my wallet. I handed her the money and took the drink at the other counter. I sat in a nice, cozy chair that had a great view of outside. 

I took a big sip of my ice coffee and went to work. After a while it started to rain and I could hear the bell of the door ring following by wet shoes squeaking on the floor. Then the business of the shop started to slow. The whispering of the people in the shop started to lower and I started to relax even more. 

The bell of the door scared me a bit from my work. I could hear the young man look around the room and walked up to the counter. He asked for some kind of drink in a lovely accent. But as soon as he got what he wanted his foot steps didn't get distant, they got closer. 

The smell of his cologne sucked into my nose and he placed his hand on the chair across from me.  "May I sat here?", he asked. 

I looked up at him. He had an goofy smile on his face and couldn't keep his eyes off of me. Probably because I haven't gave him an answer to his question. 

"Uh, I guess." 

I looked back at my work and continued. Or at least I tried. I could tell he wanted to talk to me because of the noises he kept making that was coming from his mouth. 

"I'm- I'm Niall." He stuttered.

"And I- I have to go. Look, it was nice meeting you but I'm busy." I said without trying to sound to bitchy. I gathered my things and walked towards the door. But then I stopped. I turn my head and he was already looking at me. 

It's him. The guy I wanted to see for years. I could jump into his arms and let him how much I missed him. And I could kiss his sweet lips. Or I could do what I did five years ago, walk away. He changed since the last time I saw him. He looks older and mature. I smiled at him and opened the door. I walked out of Starbucks and rain sprinkled onto my body. It was almost as cold as ice and I had no umbrella. 

"Looks like I'm walking home." I sighed. 

"Wait!" He called out. 

I wanted to keep walking but my feet wouldn't move. Instead they stopped right in front of the shop and turned around. 

"I thought you would need an umbrella." He murmured with a grin. 

I smiled at him and looked into those eyes I wished for dearly. They looked bluer then last time. "Why didn't you look for me?" I called out.

"Trusted me, I tried. It's hard looking for someone if you have know Idea where they are. I kept thinking that you would pop out of no where and tell me you were joking." 

He looked sad but I believed him. I was happy knowing he tried but then again I guess I never really told Niall where I was. But why didn't he just go with my brother? 

He reached into his packet and pull out something small. He took my hand and placed it there. It was the small infinity ring he gave me 5 years ago on my 18th birthday. I almost didn't recognize what it was. I held it between my slim fingers and looked on the inside of the ring. It was engraved with, Niall & Hope Forever. I wanted to cry. 

"You told me to gave this to someone special, someone that means the world to me. Well I'm looking at her and she looks so beautiful right now." He moved the hair out of my face and continued. "I missed you so much." 

I couldn't help myself, I have been waiting five years for this. I grabbed his face and leaned in. I lightly place my lips on his and kissed him. He was surprised at first but he then accepted it. He leaned in also. I felt the world lift up. It was like we were the only two that mattered right now. Everything around us didn't exist. His kiss is exactly how it was 5 years ago. Warm and safe. I finally felt at home again. 

He pulled from the kiss and whispered, "I love you so much, Hope." 

"I love you too, Niall." I smiled and asked, "but don't you have a girlfriend?" 

He looked at me and smiled, showing me his brace-less teeth. He slithered his hands around my waist and we put our foreheads together. I shot him a warm smile and looked into his gorgeous blue eyes. 

He whispered something before he kissed me once more, "I'm looking at her."
