(Niall’s POV)
I was on my bunk on the tour bus listening to my music, when my phone cut it off with a text tone.
1 new message: Caroline ;*
I clicked view now. The message read: “Hey, Nialler! We haven’t talked in so long. What’s going on? Why won’t you take my calls Text me back, babe. Love you. :/”
This message almost brought tears to my eyes. I immediately opened a reply message. “Hey, Care Bear! I know, and I’m so sorry. It’s just; it’s really hard to talk to you only on the phone and not in person. Love you too, don’t ever forget.”
After those two texts, we texted for about 3 hours until I had to leave to go inside the hotel.
“Hey, Niall. Why so sad?” Louis asked me.
“Hi, Lou,” I replied. “I miss Caroline. We have never been away from each other this long at one time.” I sighed as I plopped down on my bed, pulling out my phone turn on some new tunes. Justin Timberlake’s Mirrors came on first.
“I’m going on a walk, Louis. I’ll probably be down by the pool.” I told him, grabbing my headphones not waiting for a response.
Aren’t you somethingto admire?
Cause your shine is somethin’ like a mirror.
And I can’t help but notice you reflect in this heart of mine
(Somewhere in the world)
I just got done texting with Niall and now I have nothing to do. Let me introduce myself, I am Caroline Horan. Niall and I got married about a month ago. We are both 19 years old and, yes, I know too young to get married, but we know there isn’t anyone else for us.
I put on my pajamas and played my newest CD, The 20/20 Experience by Justin Timberlake, flipping it to mine and Niall’s song, Mirrors. While it started I walked over to our window seat, sat down and gazed at the sky, while I sang along.
If you ever feel alone and
the glare makes me hard to find
Just know that I'm always
Parallel on the other side
(Niall)
This was mine and Caroline’s song. We have a mutual love for JT. I causally walked into the pool area and stood as I looked into the pool.
‘Cause with your hand in my hand and a
pocket full of soul I can tell you that there's
no place we couldn't go
These lines made me start tearing up. Knowing my wife is halfway across the world, alone, in London, is very hard on me.
Just put you hand on the glass
I'll be tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
I walked over to the big window and listened to JT putting my left hand gently on the window, looking at my wedding ring.
(Caroline)
You just gotta be strong
'Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm looking right at the other half of me
I put my right hand on the window, knowing that if Niall was listening too, he’d use his dominant hand, which was his left. I looked down at my ring and smiled. Then I looked back up, mouthing ‘I love you’ to the moon, continuing to quietly sing along with Mirrors.
