They Don't Know About Us

Chapter 7

*Niall's POV*

I stand there in the shower, just drowning out my thoughts. The whole world knows about Addison. Well, I guess I better announce it publicly at the concert tonight. I get out of the shower, and wrap a towel tightly around my waist. I walk out of the bathroom, and see Addison just sitting there, holding her head in her hands. The laptop is open.

"What's wrong, babe?" She sighs.

"Look at the letter. Some fan sent it to me." I grab the laptop, and start reading the letter.

"Dear slut, 

Stay away from Niall! He doesn't need some overly depressed emo chick who cuts herself! He deserves much better than you! All you do is just ruin his image! This fandom will NOT let you bring Niall down! Stay the fucking hell away from him, bitch slut whore! Go crawl in a fucking hole and die! If you don't kill yourself, we will... Watch your back!"

I stare at the letter, and then something inside me just snaps. I clench my fists, and then, I remember Addison, and I just hold her in my arms. 

"Babe, don't listen to that bitch. You're perfect in my eyes. I don't want anyone else. You're my all, my everything. She doesn't know what she's talking about. Now, we have a concert to get ready for. Shall we?" She just sits there, and groans.

"I'm not going, Niall." She just cries silently.

"Now, why is that?"

"I can't get up. My butt's glued to this couch." I smile, and chuckle.

"I think I can fix that." I pick her up bridal style, and carry her into the bedroom. When I set her down, I start tickling her. She screams with joy and laughter. 

"Niall! Stop it! You know I'm ticklish!" I don't stop, because I love seeing her smile and laugh. Once I finally stop, she pulls me down close to her face. 

"I love you, Niall. Forever and always. Nothing will ever change that." 

"Forever and always, Addison." I kiss her nose, and then I get up, and she starts laughing.

"Um. Babe? Your towel..." I look down, and see my towel on the ground. I smile, and grab my towel. I dress, and then wait for Addison to be ready.

"You ready, babe?" I smile, and put my hands around her hips, and just kiss her.

"Niall, babe. Carry me?" She pouts.

"C'mere." I pick her up bridal style, and walk to the elevator. 

"I better call the lads, and make sure they're outside waiting for the tour bus. Time to set you down, babe." She pouts, and whines.

"Yo! You ready? We're in the elevator. See you in a few, mates!" I hang up, and pick up Addison again. 

"Much better, babe!" She flashes a smile, and I kiss her soft, sweet lips. But, what I don't notice, is that the elevator door is now open. We both turn bright pink, and I carry her outside. 

"Addison, have you lost the use of your legs or something?!" I hear Louis say. Addison playfully punches him. 

"Nope! You ready for the big concert tonight?" She smiles a big smile, and gets down from my hold.

"You don't have to carry me up the stairs. I don't want you to fall." She kisses me, and walks on the bus. She sits on the couch, and I sit next to her. She crawls in my lap, and falls asleep. I play with her hair, and quietly sing to her. This moment right here, I never want to end.

"Hey, Niall. I heard about that one "fan" that sent Addison that email." Harry comes over and sits on the other side of the couch.

"Yeah. She was pretty upset about it, but she said she's here to stay. I really think she's the one, Haz. I don't want to lose her..." 

"She loves you, you love her. I don't think that will be a problem, mate. Well, we're almost to the arena. Better go and get the gummy bears." I laugh, and kiss Addison's cheek.

"Wake up, babe. We're here." Her eyes flutter open, and she smiles.

"Hi, Niall. You ready for the concert?" I smile, and nod.

"Of course. Well, we better get going." We get up, and exit the tour bus. 

"All these fans!" Addison is amazed. I smile, and just keep walking. I hear the, screaming something.

"Naddison! Naddison! Naddison forever!" They actually made a ship name. People actually ship us. Yes. This is going perfectly! We walk into our stage room, and get our makeup and hair ready. I see Lux wander over to Addison.

"Hello there, little cutie! What's your name?" Addison smiles.

"Lux." Lux holds her arms up, wanting Addison to hold her. She picks Lux up, and sits her on her lap.

"Well, I see you've made a new friend." Lou smiles, looking at Addison and Lux. 

"Yeah. I love kids, and Lux is adorable!" 

"She seems to like you, too. Alright Niall, you're done. Get Harry." I walk over to Lux and Addison. 

"Uncle Niall!" Lux crawls into my lap.

"Hello, cutie. Can you give me a high five?" Lux hits her small hand against mine, and starts laughing. After the rest of the lads are finished getting ready, Lou calls Lux over to her.

"Lux, come on darling." Lux doesn't move. Instead of her going to Lou, she goes back to Addison. 

"Mommy, can I stay with Addison?" Lou smiles, and nods.

"Well, best friend, how about we go get you a t-shirt?" Lou stares at Allison.

"You don't have to do that, Allison."

"It's no trouble. My pleasure." I see Lux jump into Addison's arms, and they walk out the door.

"Lux seems to like Addison. She looks like a keeper, Niall." Lou smiles.

"She is. I love her more than anything. She's my love, my life, my reason to breathe. I love her more than food." Lou smiles, and nods.
