The Guitar (Niall Horan Imagine)

You're walking by a quitar shop window when somthing in the display catches your eye.

A beautiful, black accoustic guitar with a signature written in silver sharpie. You look closely and see that its Niall Horan's autograph.

You're still admiring it as someone comes up to you and says "That ones a beauty, eh?"

You reply, "yeah...I don't really play but I have always wanted to learn."

Theres a moment of silence before the person softly says "I could teach you."

The suddenly all too familiar voice sends a chill down your spine. You finally tear your eyes away from the quitar to see that its Niall himself standing right next to you.

You must of looked shocked because his mouth stretched into a huge grin.

"I..ugh.." You can't seem to find your voice. You're too lost in his eyes. Niall laughs and says, "It doesn't have to be a date if you don't want it to be. What do you say?"

You don't know why but you start to feel more relaxed. You find yourself smiling right back at him and saying yes.

A month later after, after many guitar lessons (that turned into dates), you and Niall began to find even more excuses to see eachother until you're inseperable.

You know that you're already falling hard for him even though its early on, but you have a feeling he is too.

Now, its the night before he and the boys have to go away on another year~long tour.

He comes over to your house with his guitar, wanting to play you a song that he had been working on.

You tell him that you want to play him a song too. He nods his head in agreement and asks, "Who goes first?"

You hold out your hand. "Rock, paper, scissors!"

He laughs and takes your hand instead. "I have a better idea. Why don't we play our songs at the same time?"

"But we only have one guitar." You state confused. He then leads you outside to the front of the porch. There waiting for you is the black guitar with Niall's signature.

You can't contain your excitement and you hug him. Without thinking you gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

Realizing what you had just done you turn bright red. But then Niall brings you in close and gives you a much longer kiss back, his arms wrapped tight around your waist.

You then go back inside and at the count of three, you and Niall begin to play your songs simultaneously.

The songs somehow mesh perfectly, so you and Niall write one song that combines both.

After he plays it once for you, you say your goodbyes and he leaves.

It's now six months later. You've met up with Niall and the boys a fiew times by showing up at some of their concerts, but the long distance relationship is still hard.

You're texting Niall as you're driving back home from a friends house. Niall is talking about how excited he is for the next show in Dublin. He wishes you could be there.

You begin to text back...

* * *

Niall waits for your reply but it doesn't come. Louis walks up to him and pats him on the back. "Come on, lovebird, time for the show." Niall puts his phone away and follows Louis out the door along with the other boys.

After the show Niall checks his phone but you still haven't responded. Worried, he tries to call you the next day but it went straight to voicemail.

Niall then hears Harry quietly say, "Oh my God..." at his laptop. "Niall. You...you need to see this."

He shows Niall an article about the girlfriend of a 1D member being in a car crash with a truck. Niall's heart stops as he reads, 'Both drivers were reported dead at the scene.'

As he reads further, it explains that you had drifted off to the wrong side of the road while texting.

Niall then starts to feel dizzy and he collapses. The boys all rush to him. Liam helps him sit up and says, "What's the matter with you?" Harry then shows everyone the article.

Niall, sitting on the floor, begins to rock back and forth, whispering, "My fault. My fault. My fault. This is my faut." As hot tears flood down his cheeks.

Zayn kneels down beside him. "Lad, its not your faul-"

"YES IT IS!" Niall shouts. "She was texting ME. This is MY FAULT!" He breaks down into a sob.

Harry then begins to cry as well along with the other boys.

Harry gets down on the ground and embraces him. The rest of the boys join him in the group hug, not uttering a single word.

The boys are back in your hometown for another concert. One that you were supposed to go to.

Niall goes to your house, hugging your parents before heading to your room. He sees the quitar he gave you sitting on your bed.

He sits down with it and starts playing the song you wrote together. As he gets to the chorus, his eyes fill with tears and one of the strings suddenly snaps.

Frusturated, he cries out and smashes the guitar against the hardwood floor.

Your mother runs in and sees Niall over the pile of wood, crying.

She comforts him and asks him to follow her.

She takes him to the kitchen an hands him a small object-your phone. He looks at your mom in confusion. She urges him to read whats on the screen.

Niall sees that it is the last text that you had been writting. It reads,

"I wish I could be there too, babe. So bad. But I keep thinking about our song. Thats what is keeping me strong. I can't wait to hear it once you're back in town. I miss y~~"

* * *

The boys are on stage and Harry is giving a speech. But he stops mid sentence, whispers somthing to Niall and hands him the mic.

Niall talks about how he fell in love with an amazing fan and how she's now watching over this concert.

He gets chocked up so all of the boys give him a big hug. Then they get ready to perform your song.

In the middle of the song, Niall takes in the crowd and imagines you standing in the front row, cheering with the others.

With tears in his eyes, and a smile on hi face, he says;

"I miss you too. So much."
