Niall's POV

Liam come running down the stairs. He look as though he had been crying. Looking around the room, his eyes stopped at me.

"Niall. A word. Now!"

He had no emotion on his face, so I didn't know what to think. I just followed him into the kitchen.

"I'm going to ask you something and I want a straight forward answer, understand me?" Liam snapped at me.

"yeah, go ahead."

"Do you really like Skylar?"

I didn't know what kind of answer he wanted, but I decided to go with my heart.

"Yeah, more than anything, why?"

"I've been speaking to Sky, and well, as long as you treat her right, you can date her. But let me tell you one thing. Don't mess this up by drinking and ending up kissing another girl. You have once chance."

I couldn't believe he had just said that. I was going to make this special. Sing her a song. Gotta Be You.

It's getting late now so I'm going to stay up all the night so tomorrow will be perfect. I hope she likes it.

*The next morning*

Skylar's POV

I woke up to the smell of food next to me. I opened my eyes to see Niall stood at the end of my bed with his guitar. He must of noticed me starting to wake up because he started playing a song on his guitar.

I knew what song it was straight away. Gotta Be You. When he started singing it was Amazing! I mean, his voice sent shivers down my spine.

Girl I see it in your eyes you’re disappointed ‘Cause I’m the foolish one that you anointed with your heart I tore it apart And girl what a mess I made upon your innocence And no woman in the world deserves this But here I am asking you for one more chance   Can we fall one more time? Stop the tape and rewind Oh and if you walk away I know I’ll fade ‘Cause there is nobody else   It’s gotta be you Only you It’s got to be you Only you   Now girl I hear it in your voice and how it trembles When you speak to me I don’t resemble who I was You’ve almost had enough And your actions speak louder than your words And you’re about to break from all you’ve heard But don’t be scared, I ain’t going nowhere   I’ll be here, by your side No more fears, no more crying But if you walk away I know I’ll fade Cause there is nobody else   It’s gotta be you Only you It’s got to be you Only you   Oh, girl, Can we try one more, one more time? One more, one more? Can we try one more, one more time? I’ll make it better   One more, one more, Can we try one more, one more...   Can we try one more time to make it all better?   'Cause it's gotta be you It's gotta be you Only you Only you   It’s gotta be you Only you It’s got to be you Only you

Once he had finished he took my hand in his. "Skylar Hulme, would you do the honour in going on a date with me, tonight at 7?"

I just started crying, I couldn't help it but they were happy tears.

"What about Liam? You said you didn't want to date in secret."

Niall just smiled at me. "Liam said we could, but I only have one chance so not to mess it up. So, Sky, will you?"

I jumped out of my bed and sat on his knee. "Of course I will, I've been waiting for you to ask me since the first day I met you!"
