The loud music continued after mum and Robin finished their first dance. I cried. Lou cried, and Gemma even shed a tear. I was happy that my mum was finally happy, after all these years of putting up with my attitide, Gemmas stage of pushing people away and going through the stage of letting her baby boy go, she was finally settling down, after a lot of heartache from my dad.

I didnt know why i felt so down. Looking at mum and Robin made my heart ache. Was i ever going to marry? Was i ever going to settle down and have children with someone that i adore? I didnt have the answer right now, and the strange thing is, is that the only boy i thought about was Niall when it came to my future.

"Why is miss mopey moping around then?" Lou laughed, joining me at the table, holding some champagne.

"Is it that obvious?" i questioned and Lou nodded. I sighed, taking a sip of my coke and playing with my hands. Lou pulled me into a side way hug, resting her head on mine.

"You know George, spending the Europe tour with you ive become to know how you work. I can tell your upset and i know its about one certain boy. Call him George. Just call him. Tell him how you really feel, other times i would tell you to fuck a boy that cheated on you, but with Niall its different. Not because i do his hair and makeup everyday" she laughed "But because he genuinly cares for you, and we all want to see you both happy"

Lou smiled down at me, kissing my cheek.

"I love him" i whispered. And that was that. I needed him. I wanted him. We werent exactly in a relationship for him to cheat on me. I want us to be in a relationship. I want to be the one he calls after a long day, the one he calls after an amazing concert, I want to be the one he thinks about when he falls asleep, and i want to have those really petty arguments with him. If having butterflies whenever hes near is in love, or if he sends a tingle down everypart of my body when he touches me, then im definatley in love.

"Im off to have a dance with Tom" Lou whispered, squeezing my hand. Just on que my mum walked over, a smile all over her beautiful face.

"My baby girl" she cooed, wrapping her warm arms around me.

"Hey mum" i smiled. Mum sat next to me, all giddy so i knew she was a bit tipsy.

"I hate how older your getting, i want you all to be my babys, arguing over toys, arguing over the last slice of pizza" her voice cracked.

"Mum i dont want you crying on me now" i threatened and she laughed, cuddling me.

"look at them" mum said, pointing to the dancefloor. I looked over and noticed Gemma and Harry dancing. They looked adorable.

"Theyve never been really close. Its always been you and Harry that have had that special bond, I guess its just the way Gemma is, she always seems to push people away, but shes actually letting people in now"

I looked up at mum whos bottom lip seemed to be quivering.

"Mum, is there ever a time you dont cry" i laughed and mum shook her head.

"Im so proud of you all, Gemmas going to be graduating university soon, then she'll be off travelling the world, Harrys getting bigger by the day, his success is so overwhelming, and you, your going to finish school and go on to be the beautiful model youve always wanted to be" she gushed, tears falling from her eyes.

"Come on mum, enough of the crying" Harry said, walking over with Gemma, who was laughing.

"I love you all so so much" mum cried, pulling us all into a tight hug.

By the end of the night everyone was far by drunk. Harry made me make a vine with him, also made me dance with him.

Everyone was still carrying on with the night so i stepped out into the breezy air. I wasnt cold, the breeze was actually relaxing as it was so stuffy inside.

My phone was in my hand. I should ring him. Will he want to talk to me? He seems happy enough over texting, but we havnt spoke for a couple of days, maybe hes fed up of waiting for me.

The thought scared me so much. Yes i was mad at him, but i didnt want him to completly give up on me.

I dialled his number, ny hands shaking and pressed it to my ear.

The phone rang, my heart beat increasing with every ring.

"Hello?"

I jumped, my phone dropping onto the concrete floor with a loud thud. The 'hello' came from behind me.

I slowly turned around, my eyes meeting with his black raybans, his yellow and white eagles tshirt showed his even more toned chest. His denim quarter lengths and white converses joined his outfit. His hair wasnt in its usual style, it was shorter and my breath hitched as he took off his raybans.

"Hey" he said softly, putting his glasses in his pocket. I didnt know what to say. How was he here? Why was he here?

"um, hi" i mumbled, picking up my phone.

"You look beautiful" Niall whispered, running his hands through his hair. Was he nervous? I blushed at his comment, tucking a piece of my hair behind my ear.

I looked down at my shoes, not wanting to meet his gaze. What should i say to him? I was so suprised to see him here, i have so much to say to him, yet i dont know what to say.

Niall took a step towards me, standing right infront of me. I looked up at him, and all of a sudden i burst into tears.

Dont ask me why i started crying. I dont know myself. I think it was the shock of seeing him, i forgot how perfect he is.

My hands flew up to my face, covering it as i sobbed. Niall took my hands, taking them away from my face and wrapping them around his waist. He pulled my head to his chest, mumbling something into my ear, it sounded like he was repeating "im so sorry"

He didnt say anything else, he just let me sob, and i didnt pull away from him. I knew that my tears were going to stain his tshirt but i dont think he minded.

"Please dont cry, i hate it when you cry" he whispered, his voice cracking.

He soothed the back of my hair as i continued to cry. His grip didnt loosen as he held me, i found it really comforting.

"This is all my fault, and i want you to know i am so so sorry George. What i did was so wrong and if i could turn back time i definatley would. This past month has been hell for me. Without you i cant seem to function properly, it kills me George" he said into my ear, calming me a bit.

"Everyone hates me. My mum and dad havnt spoke to me properly. Denise and Greg are dissappointed in me. Lou doesnt speak to me, neither does Tom. Harry has finally forgiven me, and i just want you to forgive me George. Please will you just give me another chance, and i promise you i will never, ever let you down" and then it was his turn to cry into my shoulder.

His family stopped speaking to him? That must of been hard.

I pulled his head up to meet my eyes, and i wiped away the tears that were falling.

"Its been hell for me too" i whispered sniffling. Nialls eyes widened at my words.

"Ive missed you Ni, Ive been craving your touch, ive been craving you" i whispered, and a small smile played on Nialls lips.

"What you did hurt me Niall. It killed something inside of me. I need to know that you will never hurt me like that again" i said and Niall nodded, kissing my face over and over again.

"Id rather die then see you cry over me again" he whispered, before crashing his lips to mine.
