Chapter 19
=============
Niall's POV
=============
I couldn't have been happier. I literally thought I was going to die if I didn't see Laura soon, and when she walked through that door, my heart stopped. It was the best moment of my life. Nothing could top how happy I was when I was surprised by someone who I was positively in love with. Yes, I am in love with Laura.
I was going to grab my phone off the coffee table to tweet about this as Laura was lying by my side on the couch, but then I saw the scrapbook I completely forgot about. It was the scrapbook I've been working on for months, filled with pictures of Laura and me. I am not the type of person who scrapbooks at all. But when I saw all these pictures that I had of me and Laura, I didn't know what to do with them. I looked at the yellow cover of the scrapbook, reading the title. Forever and Always. I picked it up, and reached my arms around Laura's waist and placed it on her stomach. She looked at it curiously, and gently opened the cover.
"What is this, Niall?" she asked softly. I smiled.
"Just look." I replied. She got herself comfortable as she sat up on my lap and slowly opened the cover of the scrapbook I've worked so hard on. She looked at all the memories that have been captured on camera, and I saw a smile spread across her face. She looked through it all carefully. Every page was chalk full of pictures she didn't even know I had. Each photograph beautifully told a story of the memory, without any words at all. She finally turned to the last page, and she gasped. She clamped her hand over her mouth and stared up at me with wide eyes. I smiled.
"Niall...that's the clover I gave you?" she asked quietly. I looked at the page, seeing the dead and crusty, but still beautiful four leaf clover that Laura gave me when we first met. Memories flashed through my mind...Her soft hands placing the clover inside of mine-- my tears dripping on the table-- the sweet smell of her hair during our first hug. I nodded and watched her gorgeous face stare at the clover in awe.
"You kept it." she whispered.
"Why wouldn't I? It's my favorite thing." I responded. I couldn't help but smile as her soft lips pressed against my cheek.
"Thank you, Niall." she whispered. I wrapped my arms around her, and sighed. I was going to say it. I had to. Regrets? Maybe, maybe not. But I had to say it now. It was the perfect moment, and it was the truth, so why not? I took a deep breath as I leaned in close to her ear and whispered,
"I love you so much, Laura." I rested my forehead on hers and closed my eyes lightly. I smiled in relief as I heard her soothing voice echo through my ears.
"I love you too, Niall."
It was the first time we admitted we loved eachother, and the moment couldn't have been more perfect. I knew she was my princess. No one could ever replace her. She was perfect to me, and I felt like the luckiest man alive to know she was mine. I wasn't going to let anything ruin this moment. Not anything, not anyone. I opened my eyes again as Laura untangled herself from my hold. She stood up from the couch.
"Harry? Are you okay?" she asked. I saw Harry angrily leaving the room, and Laura chasing after him. What was Harry's problem?

Laura's POV
=============
I walked after Harry, who was stomping out of the room. I didn't want to interrupt me and Niall's perfect and completely romantic moment. I felt bad for leaving Niall, but that didn't mean I was completely blind of everyone else's feelings. Harry walked into a bedroom and threw himself onto the bed, burying his face in the pillow. Harry and I needed to talk about this. I heard Louis wolf whistle as I shut the bedroom door. I rolled my eyes at it but went and sat on the bed by Harry. I ran my fingers through his curly hair and sighed.
"Harry...are you alright?" I asked. He looked up at me, and I saw him crying. I gasped in shock.
"Are you crying?" I asked. He hid his face again. I didn't mean to embarrass him.
"We need to talk. Tell me what's on your mind. Why are you upset?" I said a bit more calmly, trying to soothe him. He stayed silent for a while, but finally lifted his head up again. His eyes were red and puffy. He wiped a tear away from his eye. I hated seeing people cry. He sniffed as he sat up next to me.
"Laura, I love you, okay? I always have. My heart was slowly breaking every time I saw you with Niall and when you told eachother...when you said...Laura, I'm sorry." he couldn't finish his sentence. I was completely taken by surprise. Harry loved me, too? I had no idea what to do at this point. What was I supposed to do? I closed my mouth when I realized it was hung open. I was shocked. I wanted to comfort him first. I took him in my arms awkwardly and hugged him, patting his back.
"I'm sorry, Harry." I stuttered. What am I trying to do here? He pulled away and looked at me in the eyes. We locked eachother's stares for a minute. His green eyes were...stunning.
"What do you want me to do, Harry?" I asked quietly. He shook his head. His eyes triangled my face, looking from both of my eyes to my lips. Harry was beautiful.
"I just want you to love me back." he whispered. He slowly started leaning his face in closer to me. That's when I realized he was trying to kiss me. I started panicking. Swarms of thoughts went through my mind. I promised Niall that I wouldn't let anyone do this but him. And Harry is trying to kiss me. What do I do? I love Niall... Harry loves me?
Before I could respond to the situation, Harry crashed his lips against mine. The sensation was incredible and completely unexpected. This was my first kiss. I didn't know what to do, but I think I started kissing him back. It all came naturally, and it seemed absoloutly incredible. His sweet lips against mine seemed perfect. I tangled my fingers through his curly hair as he slipped his arms around my waist. I realized I had broken my promise with Niall, but I didn't know how to stop kissing him.
Suddenly, Harry quickly pulled away when he heard the door open. I snapped my head towards the doorway, seeing my beautiful Niall with his jaw dropped, and a silent tear streaming down his face. What have I done?
THE END.
.........................................
From the day I first met you, everything changed.
I knew I had to get you, what ever the pain.
I had to take you and make you mine.
You can call me a thief.
But you should know your part.
I'm only here
Because you stole my heart.

Fanfic"It shouldn't hurt this much for me...to see you kiss another girl." I said between sobs. Niall scooted closer by me, and wrapped his arms around me. I threw my arm across his chest and cried into his shoulder. He rested his head on mine. I felt so...
