*a couple months later*
You couldn't believe it. Today you were wedding dress shopping. You'd flown to Dublin so that Maura and Denise could help you out, since your mom wasn't going to be able to make it. You were going to Skype her in so she could feel a part of it. You hated that your mom couldn't be there, but you were glad to have your in-laws there for you. You'd found a few dresses and had gone into the dressing room along with the bridal consultant to start weeding through them.
Maura and Denise were being awful quiet, but whatever. You slipped into the first dress which was a sleeveless silk ball gown, it wasn't particularly your favorite but Maura had picked it out so you decided to go show them. You walked out and stood in front of the trifold mirror they had in front of the runway. When you looked in the mirror you noticed an additional person on the couch behind you.
'Mommy!' you shouted. "hi baby girl' your mom replied. 'but how?' you questioned as you gave her a giant hug. 'Niall paid for my plane ticket. He knew how much you wanted me to be here for this.' she answered. 'I'm so glad you're here.' you reiterated. 'show us this dress.' Denise said. 'okay,okay.' you said making sure to carefully step onto the runway. 'what do you think?' the bridal consultant asked. 'no really my style, but it's nice. a bit too fairytale princess for me.' you answered.
You went back and put on the next dress, which Denise had picked out. It was strapless with a gorgeous beaded belt. You returned to the runway and everyone swooned saying 'oh how beautiful.' and 'stunning'. You turned facing the mirror. 'oh my goodness' you said to yourself. 'amazing' Denise said. 'how do you feel about this one?' the consultant asked. 'I really like it, but I would like to try on a couple more just to make sure if that's alright.' you told her. 'well of course.' she answered.
The next dress was your moms pick. It has a medium length train, a sweetheart top and beaded along the top and flared out underneath the bust giving an airy lightness. You really loved this one and went out and showed everyone. It brought tears to your moms eyes.
The last dress was your pick. The bridal consultant had informed you it was typically a dress people wore for beach weddings. It was a maxi dress and barely scraped the floor. It was strapless had minor beading at the top and at the waistline. It was so gorgeous. By far the prettiest dress you'd ever worn, but that's what a wedding dress was supposed to be after all right?
You walked out on the runway and immediately the three women on the couch at the same moment said 'that's the one'. "my son's jaw will be hanging open when he sees you from the front of the church in that dress. Y/n it's gorgeous, but still not as gorgeous as you are." Maura told you, giving you a sweet hug. 'it's magnificent. no doubt a head turner.'Denise said. 'honey,' your mom began getting choked up 'Niall has no idea what he's gotten himself into. Baby girl, you look beautiful.' she finished with tears falling down onto her cheek.
*a few days later*
You were still in Dublin. You were staying with Denise,Greg, and the twins. Your mom had to return home yesterday and Maura had left earlier that day. Today you were spending time with Denise and the twins and then tomorrow you were going to get Niall's ring, along with Greg's help.
'I just can't believe how big they've gotten' you said to Denise as you sat down on the floor to play with the twins. 'You're telling me.' Denise answered. 'Denise, can I confide in you something?' you asked her. 'sure, y/n. go ahead.'
'well here a while back when Niall and Greg were tux shopping, I was really bored and decided to have a movie day, but I didn't want to have a movie day alone so I invited Harry over and he came and we cuddled and had a good time just being together. But at dinner he admitted to have feelings for me and I told him how I felt back, but I haven't exactly told Niall about any of these and I feel like I probably need to, but I don't want to start unnecessary drama between Niall and Harry again.' you took a huge breath after finishing this spill.
'what exactly did he tell you.' Denise asked. 'That he loved me and wished me and him would have never ended because he would have made me his fiancé a lot earlier than Niall did.' You hesitated, as Denise would be the first person to know about you and Harry. 'what you and Harry dated?' she responded. 'yeah...' you dragged out. 'when?' she questioned. 'before me and Niall got together. we kept it uber secret because at that time I really didn't want to deal with the crazy media and fan attention.' you laid it all out on the line. 'have you ever told Niall any of this?' she asked. 'no. I mean he knows I'm apprehensive of the media attention,but he doesn't know that me and Haz were in a relationship.' you told her.
'I know it's easier said than done, but I think you need to tell Niall. Not particularly about Harry's confession to you, but definitely about your relationship. I think you'd feel a lot better getting that off your chest.' Denise said. 'yeah, I will.' you responded turning your focus back to playing with the twins. 'you and Harry though seriously?' Denise said with a hint of shock in her tone. 'you seem so surprised.' you said. ' I just, I don't know. I guess you've been with Niall so long that the idea of you with anyone else seems weird.' she explained. 'I suppose it does.'you answered back.
*the next day,ring shopping*
'What do you think of this one?' you said as you held up a wedding band waiting for Greg to come over and look at it. It was a simple metal band, a couple inches wide. 'perfect.Niall's very simple and this one is perfect.' Greg told you. 'I'll take this one.' you told the lady at the counter. 'would you like to engrave it, dear?' the lady asked. 'sure.' you told her. She handed you a notepad so that you could write down what you wanted have engraved on the band. You wrote you and Niall's initials down with a '&' between the two and slid the notepad back across the counter to the clerk. One more thing you could finally check of the wedding to-do list, which still contained so many unchecked things.
*a few days later, back in England, Cheshire to be exact*
You walked into the house finding Anne and Robin sitting on the couch together with Gemma in a chair by them. They all turned and faced the door you'd just entered in through. 'y/n' they said. 'hi' you replied. 'What brings you to Cheshire, darling?' Anne asked as she pulled you in for a hug. 'I have a huge favor to ask of you, actually.' you told her. 'oh really?' she answered. ' well as you know I'm engaged and I was wondering if you would do me the honor of being my matron of honor?' You asked. 'I would love to." she said enthusiastically. 'wonderful.' you said.
'I still can't believe you and Niall are getting married.' Gemma added in. 'trust me I can't either' you said. 'do you have any idea how many bridesmaids you're going to have?' Anne asked. 'So far it's you,my long time friend Kayan, my college roommate Zoella, and Danielle,Liam's girlfriend. so 4 total, I don't want to have anymore than that.' 'Does Niall have his groomsmen picked out?' Gemma asked. ' surprisingly yes. Greg's the best man, Eoghan, Sean, and Harry.'
'do I get to come?' Robin piped in. 'of course! It wouldn't be the same without you. Same for you Gemma. You'll receive invitations eventually we still have to get pictures done for them, but they should be sent out as the month nears an end.' 'yay' Gemma said. 'so what do you plan on doing for the rest of the day since you're already here?' Anne asked. 'I don't really know. Didn't think that far ahead. I would love to see your charity headquarters if you wouldn't mind showing me.' you answered. 'I would be more than glad to show you the headquarters for Believe In Magic.'
You spent the rest of the days out and about with Anne, Robin, Gemma. You had so much fun laughing and site seeing with them. After dinner you headed back to London and fell straight asleep.
