Niall Horan Imagine for @xNiallersPrincessx

"I can't do this Niall! I suck at it!" You begged for your best friend to let you stop playing. You guys have been passing the soccer ball around for what seemed like ages. You just couldn't do it anymore ever since you broke your knee while playing a match a year or two back. Everytime you would try to hit the ball with much power, your knee would hurt again, making the ball go only a few feet.

"Come on, love, just a few more times. I'll help you learn again." Niall insisted and went to your side.

"First, just set the ball up like you usually do." He instucted and set the ball infront of you guys, "Then take your few steps back and to the side."

Niall held your hand and walked back with you to a good distance from the ball, "Now, I want you to forget about everything thats happened in the last few years, and just kick that ball with all your might. Kick it as if nothing has happened to injur you inside or out. Kick it like it's the person you pushed you at the store yesterday's face. Kick it with all your might and then kick harder."

You nodded your head and took your running stance. Before you ran though, you stood there for a few minutes, just taking in deep breaths, thinking about what you were gonna do. You cleared your mind off of everything and you ran up to the ball.

"I can't do it!" You whimpered and stopped right as you were going to kick it, "I can't do this anymore Niall, I'm sorry." You slowly sank to the ground and crawled into a little ball, tears in your eyes.

"Shhhhhh" Niall soothed you, "I know you can do it, Jessie. You just have to believe in yourself like I believe in you." He rubbed your back softly and held you in his arms.

"I know I'd be able to do it, but I can't in this dumb body!" You screamed, upset at yourself. When you broke your knee, you gained a few pounds, too, from not being able to walk much.

"Shhh, it's okay Jessie. You can do it. You have to believe in yourself and love yourself." Niall whispered into your ear, "Just how I love you."

Your face turned to his, and they were just inches apart already. You knew that Niall has liked you for a while. Or at least, you heard he did. You've personally always liked Niall since you met him. Sasly, you just never did anyting about it.

You both stared deeply into each other's eyes, "You love me?"

"I have always loved you, Jessie. I've loved you since day one." Niall said quietly.

"I love you, too." You repllied.

"Good. That means I can do this." He slowly started leaning into kiss you, and you did the same. Your lips finally connected and all you felt were fireworks. Fireworks flying everywhere.Your mind fluttered to every single memory with him. From the day you guys met at the beach one summer, all the way up to this moment now, which you would never ever forget.

Niall pulled away after a minute with a sparkle in his eyes, "Will you be my girlfriend, Jessie?"

You nodded your head with a smile on my face and hugged him. You guys held each other for the longest time before standing up.

"Want to head back home?" Niall asked, holding your hand.

You shook your head no, "I want to kick that ball"

Before Niall could protest, you ran up to where the soccer ball was and set it up. You took your step away from the ball and lined your body up. This time, you took one deep breath before running as hard as you could. You right foot soon came in contact with the ball and you swung your foot through. Your knee hurt a little, but you didn't let it stop you. The ball soon left your foot and went soaring to the goal, hitting the top right side of the net.

You turned around to Niall. You both had hope in your eyes and a smile on your face. You ran towards him and he lifted you up into a hug.

"I did it." You smiled.

"I always knew you could." Niall kissed your forehead and let you down, "Ready to go home?"

"Sure." You were still smiling widely as you guys started walking to the car. A few steps in, you took a look back at the net and the ball. You didn't believe that you actually did it, but the proof was right there.

Niall soon swooped you up and carried you off to the car, and you guys lived happily ever after.

**Hey guys! So this is my first Imagine ever so I just had to put the last line there(: I really hope you liked it! I am still taking requests, but they just might not get done too fast, yet.

Thank you for reading this!
