Niall POV

When we arrived home, I ran straight to Vallory's room. Slamming the door open, I saw Vallory, laying on her stomach, fast asleep. I walked over to her and sat down on her bed. "Hey, Princess, I'm back." I said, rubbing her back. She sat up and looked at me. "What did you get?" She asked, rubbing her eyes. I looked through the bag, not sure of what the girls had got for her. I poured the bag continents onto her bed and looked through. There was ice cream, a heating pad, Pamprin, a box of tampons, a box of pads and candy bars. She looked at me with wide eyes. "How did you know I would need all of this?" She asked, looking through it all. Just then, Louis walked through. "He had a couple of fans help him out. He didn't know what to get." Louis said chuckling. Vallory looked at me and quirked an eyebrow. "Yeah. Kinda." I said with a blush. "Aww. That's so sweet. Come here." She said, and pecked my lips. "It's the thought that counts." She said and smiled. I got up and looked through the movies she had under her television. "We could watch movies if you like. The sappy love ones." I said picking up, The Notebook. "You'd do that for me?" She said in awe. "Anything. You can even paint my nails." I said holding up my hand. She giggled. "Come on, lets go downstairs, and we can watch movies and eat this ice cream." I proposed. She nodded. I went over to her side and carried her downstairs bridal style. "I'll be back. I'm going to get blankets and stuff." I said kissing her forehead. I came back downstairs with her heating pad, a couple of blankets, the ice cream, and the chocolate bars and sat down with her. She told me where her nail polish was and I ran to get it. Popping the movie in, I situated myself next to her. "Give me your hand?" She asked. I obliged, and allowed her to paint it. "I'm doing yours next. And plaiting your hair." I said, playing with her wavy hair. "Good luck with that." She said giggling. Her focus was between my nails and the movie and her head bobbed up and down. "I'll be back. I have to get the nail polish remover." She said pecking my cheek. I nodded and let her go. Just as she reached the stairs, Zayn came down. He laughed at the sight. "Why are your nails painted?" He said between laughs. "Vallory is on her month and that's what she wanted to do, so I let her." I said proudly. His laughter sobered up as he came behind me on the couch. "Thanks Niall. For letting her do this. Her last boyfriend wasn't so sweet." He said, looking around. "What do you mean?" I asked, not putting my full attention to him. "Her last boyfriend invited her to go to the beach with her. She told him that she couldn't swim, but she's be glad to go. He told her that his uncle changed his mind and that he couldn't have anyone come over. He ignored her for a full week. He would text every once in a while, but when he did, it would be, 'hey real busy today, sorry" Then it would be back to ignoring her. She was devastated. So, I would be her "boyfriend" and rub her back, or talk with her until she felt better. She's never had a guy stay with her. Her ex boyfriend only wanted her for sex." Zayn admitted. I felt terrible. "Why didn't she tell me this?" I asked, a little shocked. "Probably to see if you would stay. Not out of guilt, but for real. Thanks for that." He said, slapping my shoulder. I smiled as Vallory came down the steps holding the remover in her hand. "Yeah, thanks for staying. It means a lot to me. You're the best." She said, sitting down next to me. I brushed hair behind her ear. "Anything for you." I said, giving her a peck on the lips. 2 sappy movies, a box of tissues, and 20 painted nails later, we were in the bathroom. "Ouch, your pulling!" Vallory winced. I was attempting to Plait her hair. "I'm sorry baby." I said, kissing her cheek. We decided that wearing matching pajamas, was a definite, so we were both wearing Hershy Kiss shirts and brown sweat pants. "Hair band?" I asked holding my hand out. She handed it over and I tied the end of her braid. After giving it an approved nod, I told her she could look. Opening her eyes, she gasped. "You left out this bit!" She said holding her bangs up. I sighed. "I did it on purpose. Face me." I said grabbing a bobby pin. I brushed her bangs back and clipped them back. "Now look." I said, spinning her to the mirror. She giggled. "Good job!" She praised. I shook my head with a chuckle. She turned around and inspected me. "Can I do your make up?" She asked with a smile. My eyes widened, but then went normal. "Sure. I'm curios to see how I would look." I said sighing. "Okay, sit on the toilet lid, and ill start." She said, grabbing her make up bag. "The things I do for you." I said shaking my head. "Oh, shush. You love me." She said giggling. "You're lucky I do." I kissed her. She smiled ino the kiss, then pushed me back. "Stay still okay? And do as I tell you." She instructed. I nodded and allowed her to put make up on. "I have the best boyfriend in the world." She said as she finished making up my face. "Are you done yet?" I asked, impatiently. "Yes. Look!" She said with enthusiasm. I got up and looked in the mirror. I was shocked at the sight in front of me. "Oh, god." I muttered looking at my face. She just giggled. "You're gonna get it." I said, walking towards her. "You have to catch me first!" She screamed running down the stairs. I ran hot on her heels, slowing down a bit, so she can get away. "Woah! What's this about?" Liam called out to Vallory. "Niall is chasing me! She said between breaths. "Why is he.. Oh god." He said as he turned around then burst end into laughter. Soon, all the guys came around and laughed at me. "Haha, yeah I know." I rolled my eyes. "Aww come on, you two get together, I'm taking a picture." Louis said holding up his phone. Vallory carefully walked over to me and I held my arm out. She snuggled into me as we posed for the picture. After I heard the snapping sound of the picture being taken, I tickled Vallory. "That's what you get!" I said as I tickled her. "Niall.. St..Stop!" She said In between laughs. "Nope! Say you love me!" I said chucking. I heard another shutter sound, indicating Louis took another photo. "I.. I.. Love.. You! G.. Get.. Of.. Off!" She screamed. I leaned down and kissed her, then pulled her up with me. She punched my stomach as I pretended it hurt. "You guys are so cute!" Louis said. I heard my phone buzz, taking it out, I saw Louis posted both pictures on twitter. The caption read, "Say you love me." And "get married already!" I had to admit, we looked adorable. "I'm tired." Vallory said as she leaned her head against mine. "Me too. Come on, time for bed." I said as I picked her up bridal style and into her room. "Please stay tonight?" She begged. "Fine. Only for tonight." I gave in. I crawled in bed with her and rubbed her back. "Goodnight babe" She said, pecking my lips. I kissed back. "Goodnight baby girl." I said, as I continued to soothe her as she fell into a deep sleep.
