*Niall’s P.O.V.*

“I don’t like it” Liam said after watching all the scenes we had shot today. It was the end of the first day of shooting the video and well none of the boys liked it.

“What do you mean?” Ralph asked. Ralph was the director of the video; he was the one who came up with the idea for this video.

“It’s not bad, it’s actually great! But it’s not our style, not something we would do” Liam went on, trying not to hurt Ralph’s feelings.

“We need something crazy, something totally random” Louis suggested. Ralph nodded in agreement and we all knew he was already working on it.

“We’ll come up with something” Ralph was hopeful, something we all liked about him.

“Ok boys! Enjoy your next two days off, see you all at the photo-shoot on Thursday” our scheduling manager said to us. The lads looked so relieved to have some time off. I was happy I could spend the next two days with Maggie.

I made my way to the changing rooms to get all the makeup off me and put on my clothes. All I was wearing at the moment was a bathing suit.

After washing my face about ten times I put on my dark baggy jeans, a white V-neck, a blue Jack Wills jumper, and white vans, which I knew Maggie loved. I made my way outside where I found a group of girls waiting for me.

“Hey Niall” they greeted.

“Hello girls” I tried to make my accent a little bit thicker to make them melt, they shrieked.

“Can we get a picture?” They asked nervously. I thought it was adorable how the girls got so nervous at our sight; I’m just a normal lad.

“Yeah sure love” I answered. I took a picture with each of them and then a group photo. I recorded a message saying “I love Marilyn” and then I was off. I wanted to get to Maggie’s flat as soon as I could, since she wasn’t feeling well I wanted to know what was wrong.

When I was outside of her flat I checked my phone to see if I had gotten anything from her. I had five texts, three from my mum, one from Liam, and one from Desi. My mum’s texts were about my next dentist appointment where I was going to get my braces off and family news. Liam asked if he could borrow some cologne. Then I opened Desi’s. It talked about how Maggie told her about the flirty girl and the kissing scene. As I read the text I felt guilty, I should have said something about that scene and that girl trying to flirt with me, my heart felt weak. I knew I wouldn’t like if something like that happened with a guy and Maggie. I got out of my car and made my way into Maggie’s flat. It was dark inside. She was probably sleeping; I made my way to her bedroom, quietly trying to not disturb her.

“Niall?” I heard her sweet, groggy voice from inside the bedroom. I opened the door to find her sleepy eyes half open and her hair a sleepy mess. This made me smile.

“How are you feeling darling?” I asked making my way to her side.

“I’m good, I think I was just really tired, been spending too many long nights in the dark room I guess.” She said before yawning. I moved her a little to sit next to her and putting my arms around her.

“Desi told me” I broke the news to her. I felt her body tense up”

“I-I know it’s dumb, I was just…”

“I understand, I should have said something, it’s totally understandable, I know I wouldn’t like it if the roles were reversed” I cut her off, I knew she was jealous but that’s how I knew she cared about me.

“It’s just that, she is so pretty and skinny, and well I’m not” I could almost hear the tars falling from her eyes. The sound of her voice gave it away. I could feel the anger boiling up inside me. How could I be so stupid!

“Maggie you don’t know how much I love you. I love every single thing about you. Your big brown eyes, your beautiful smile that sends butterflies to my stomach when you show it, you know how embarrassing it’s for a lad to admit they get butterflies?” her laugh filled the air. “Oh and that laugh, it makes me smile. Maggie I fell in love with you the minute I saw you, that’s why it only took me three days to make you mine!” she shyly smiled, that smiled took my breath away “But you know what's the one thing I love the most about you?”

“What's that?” she looked up at me with tears in her eyes.

“Your curves, I know I might sound like a pervert but those curves kill me! They are beautiful. That’s why I love guitars so much, because they remind me of your curves” she giggled at my analogy. “don’t let a skinny bimbo bring you down, you're perfect to me” I tightened my grip around her. I wanted to let her know how much I needed her. I started to sing her favorite song.

“Your hand fits in mine like it’s made just for me” I took her hand and intertwined my fingers with hers. “but bare this in it was meant to be, and I’m joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks and it all makes sense to me” I pocked the freckles on her face and she smiled.

“I know you’ve never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile, you’ve never loved your stomach or your thighs” she wrapped her arms around her stomach. “the simples on your back at the bottom of your spine, but I’ll love them endlessly” I kissed her head gently.

“I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth But if I do, it's you, oh it's you, they add up to I'm in love with you and all these little things”

*Maggie’s P.O.V.”

He was singing to me, his voice sweet, it made me feel so loved. Tears were streaming down my face

“You can’t go to bed without a cup of tea, and maybe that’s the reason that you talk in your sleep, and all those conversations are the secrets that I keep, though it makes no sense to me, I know you’ve never loved the sound of your voice on tape you never want to know how much you weigh” my heart hurt, it was true, everything in this song was true about me. “You still have to squeeze into your jeans but you're perfect to me” he was looking into my eyes now. “I won’t let these little things slip out of my mouth, but if I do, it’s true, oh it’s you they add up to, I'm in love with you, and all your little things” our faces were almost touching now, I could feel his breaths on my cheeks.

“You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you, and you'll never treat yourself right darling but I want you to,” I remembered what I had done earlier and my heart ached “If I let you know I'm here for you, maybe you'll love yourself like I love you, oh” this made me change my mind. NO! You can’t change your mind! You will love yourself because you will have the body you want, work for it! He kept on singing, His words impacted my heart but my brain wasn’t giving in.

“I’m in love with you and all your little things” he finished the song, his bright blue eyes staring into mine. I never wanted to let go of him, I didn’t want him to let go of me. He leaned down and kissed me softly, not a kiss that said “I want you,” but a kiss that confessed his love for me, better than a thousand songs could ever do. He broke away from our perfect kiss and looked into my eyes again.

“I don’t want you to ever doubt my love, I don’t want you to leave me” he confessed.

“I love you” we both said at the same time.
