Make You Feel My Love (One Direction)

Chapter Twenty-Three

**Chapter Twenty-Three**

•Niall's POV•

The lads and I had to wake up early today for our interview, which wasn't as easy as I would have liked. After dinner, we all went out to the clubs to have a little fun on our first night in Italy. Well, everyone except Liam and Erin.

I gotta hand it to Liam for everything he's been doing for her though. He doesn't hardly go out to clubs or go to large public parties, he doesn't get drunk, he doesn't put himself in any situation that could cause rumors to spread; losing her the first time was hard enough. Though, if I was in his shoes, I wouldn't want to lose Erin either. She really is one of a kind; out of all the girls I've met, none come even close to her in comparison. If she wasn't with Liam, I'm sure I would definitely go for it; however, they were practically made for each other. They're both so responsible and caring, it's like Daddy Direction finally met his Mommy Direction... if that makes sense.

"So Liam, wanna come out to a party with us tonight? You haven't gone to any parties in a while." Louis asked Liam curiously. He was right though, and Liam knew it.

"Not tonight. I'm going on a date with Erin actually." Liam told us, smiling proudly. As much as I know Harry and I like her, we're really quite happy for Liam. We haven't seen him this happy in such a long time, not even with Danielle and they were together for two years. It's just something about her causes him to go weak at the knees every time he sees her.

"Ooooh, something romantic for her first time in Italy huh?" Harry says, wiggling his eyebrows causing us all to laugh.

"Well, yeah. I want tonight to be perfect; no mistakes, and nothing held back. I want her to know exactly what I feel about her...." Liam says, drifting off in thought.

"So you're going to give her back the ring then? Why don't you just marry her and get it over with?" I asked him, snapping him out of his thoughts. No doubt they would get married one day, but I think I knew why it couldn't be now.

"Yes, but now isn't the time to think about that; definitely not. And you know that Niall; she's too fragile to be put in that situation. Especially after how her parents ended up. I could never put her in that situation so soon, it wouldn't end up well." Liam stated simply, obviously having previous thoughts of the subject. Though, there was one thing that I always wanted to know, and obviously Zayn was curious about the same thing.

"But Liam... when you DO plan on marrying her, who will you ask for permission? Like, you can't ask her dad. And her mom, well.... they don't talk. How does that work?" Zayn asked shyly, unsure about asking the question in the first place.

"Honestly, I don't know. I've never thought about it. She does have a brother, and there's always her sister. I'm sure if it came down to it I'd talk to both of them?" Liam stated questionably. He had never had to think about these sort of things; none of us have. We've never been in a relationship serious enough to actually consider it, but I think that's what we all envied about Liam.

Liam had the relationship that we all dreamed of having with a girl one day. When they argued, they didn't usually yell. They simply talked it through and found a solution. They did things for each other without questioning it or complaining. Even after being out all day with little sleep and extreme exhaustion taking over, they would take the time to spend time together whenever they could even if it meant even less sleep. Even Louis and Zayn wanted their relationships with their girlfriends to be more like that; and occasionally they would even ask Erin for advice on what to do to make things better. And one day, I would have a relationship like that too.

"You boys ready for your interview? Your cue is in about 30 seconds." The stage director informed us as we all nodded our heads politely.

"Today we also have another group of guests that all of you young girls should know very well. Please welcome.... One Direction!" The interviewer said, giving us the cue to come onto the set. We glided over to the couch and sat down waiting for the screaming of the crowd to die down.
