LOUIS TOMLINSON

JULY 20, 2010

"Hello, what's your age and name?" Simon Cowell, X Factor judge, asked. "Louis Tomlinson, I'm 18," I spoke and they smiled at me. "And what will you sing today?" Alesha asked.

"A son I wrote for my boyfriend called Photograph," I said and she nodded and let me start singing.

"When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me,
Under the lamppost back on Sixth Street
Hearing you whisper through the phone,
'Wait For Me To Come Home,'" I finished the last verse.

The crowd started to cheer and David asked me a question, "Louis, are you okay? You're crying."

I wipe the tears away and nodded. "Is your boyfriend here with me today?" Amanda asked and I shook my head sadly, and said, "He passed away in 2009, he got into a pla-plane crash," I choked up at the end and they gave me sympathetic looks.

"Oh, I'm sorry," Amanda said and I wiped away more tears. I left with yes's and immediately left with my family instructing them to drop me off where Niall was buried.

I bought a flower, and walked to his grave. "Hey Niall," I whispered sitting in front of his grave. I place the flower in the ground.

"Remember how I told you I would go to X Factor? I got all yes's. I'm not that happy I guess. I mean, I'm happy, I just wish you were there. I would run backstage and kiss you plump lips that I miss so much," I whispered wiping falling tears.

I took out the ring.

The engagement ring I had bought Niall. I was so close to proposing to him, but it never happened. "Niall James Horan, this is what I was going to do at the airport, I was gonna propose to you. We would be official by now because we had already started planning before, but I wanted you to marry me, I had it all mapped out. I had our friends with guitars to lead you to me in the airport. They would sing a short verse that led you to one another, and them to me and I would propose. We were so close Nialler, so close," I whispered putting the ring back into my pocket.

"I'm not gonna let go of you. I'm gonna remember your laugh and your jokes. I will remember everything about you, I'm so sorry Niall!" I sobbed hugging his stone tightly.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up seeing Niall in ripped clothes from the flight, but he didn't have any blood on him. "I love you Louis, don't blame my death on yourself. I'm proud of you, so, so proud of you. I'll see you soon babe, there's someone special out there to propose to. And yes Louis Tomlinson, I will marry you. That's what I would've said, don't forget, Wait For Me To Come Home, but this time I'll wait," he whispered pressing his lips to my forehead gently before disappearing into a cloud, leaving a picture of us at prom in his place.

I picked it up seeing writing on the back.

NIALL HORAN

JULY 20, 2010

I watched Louis from above. I sat on a cloud, swinging my legs back and fourth as I saw tears stream down Louis' face as he read the letter.

"I'll wait for you to come home Louis, I'll wait for you," I whispered as I saw him look up at the sky with a tear stained face and blew a kiss to me, not knowing I was there and watching.

I pretended to catch it and put it in my pocket like I did at the airport.

The last time I saw him.
