-Niall

I felt my whole world stop when she took so long to answer. At first I had no clue if she was going to say yes, I thought she would say no then run away and leave me standing there like an idiot. When she said yes though, I had relief wash through me. I can finally call her mine forever, well after we’re married.

I slipped the ring on her finger, stood up, and pulled her in for a long passionate kiss. The boys were wolf whistling in the background as I heard the girls ‘awe.’

She pulled away from our kiss and smiled. Happy tears were rolling down her cheeks. I could hear the others in the background but the only thing that mattered were us two. We stared into each other’s eyes.

“Hey I hate to interrupt this special moment but it’s raining and the thunder and lightning are like right above us.” Liam said going into Daddy Direction mode. It was then that I noticed the little droplets of water falling from the sky.  I also saw that the guys had given their jackets to their girl’s I turned around and shrugged mine off and draped it over Courtney’s shoulder. She smiled and thanked me.  I gave her a quick peck on the lips to say you’re welcome.

I wrapped my arm around her shoulder. The boys and girls were gathering the flowers and candles as we hurriedly tried to escape the oncoming rain.

*Morning

I woke up the next morning in peace and quiet; my finance sleeping peacefully beside me. Wow, kind of weird to actually think it, I wonder what it would be like to say it out loud? 

I slipped out of bed and went to get dressed. After I pulled some shoes on I went to go see what the boys were up too. I went to Liam’s first since he was always up earlier; I didn’t even check to see what time it was. I knocked on his door and was soon greeted with a smiling Ryleigh.

“Good morning Niall, here to see Liam?” She sort of laughed at her words. I smiled and nodded my head. She led me inside and into the living area where Liam was sitting watching the television. Ryleigh sat down beside him and I went to the other couch and sat.   Not even a minute pasted by before the door was opened and in walked a cheerful Louis, Eleanor, Hailey, and Harry. I looked at the door with a confused look.

“How did you all get in?” Liam asked the one question I had swirling around in my head. Louis gave him a grin and held up an all access key; no doubt it was Paul’s.  Liam gave him a disapproving look before turning his attention back to the television.

Louis grabbed Eleanor’s hand and sat beside me on the other couch. His arm went around both of our shoulder.

“Niall shouldn’t you be in your room making up for lost time?” He waggled his eyebrows at me. The others stifled a laugh as he tried to make more cheeky comments. I blushed madly and pushed him in a playful manor.

“Shut it Tomlinson.” I faked a glare at him. He laughed and held his hands up in surrender.

“Has anyone had breakfast?” I asked.  My stomach needed food and I didn’t eat last night so I was starving. The others chorused a no and I thought of something. “Can we get the others and go get something, I’m starving!” I got laughed at for my hungry.

Liam stood up and nodded his head. The others did as well and we went to get dressed and wake the others. I came back into my suite and went to wake up Courtney.  I opened the bedroom door and laughed at her sleeping figure, curled up in the entire white duvet. Her snores were loud and her hair was a tangled mess but she still was beautiful. I went over to the edge of the bed and gently shook her awake. I got a small noise as an answer, so she was halfway between sleep and being awake.
