Little Bit Stronger (BoyxBoy)

I Won't Give Up

Here is the chapter and it is full of smut but not until the very end. This chapter is a lot longer than the other chapters.

When I look into your eyes
It’s like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there’s so much they hold

 

Niall’s POV

It felt so right having Harry hold me so close to him. I never thought that I could find myself loving him again, but Harry was willing to take it slow so that I could learn to trust him again.

And just like them old stars
I see that you’ve come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

When he whispered those song lyrics into my ear, I just lost it and couldn’t contain all the emotions that I had been holding back. He just held me closer and rubbed my head whispering sweet nothings into my ear. It was really nice to have someone finally able to hold me and comfort me. The last one to do this was Liam and I had been missing a man’s touch for so long.

Well I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up

I hadn’t realized that I had fallen asleep until I felt Harry tucking me into bed. He was being so sweet to me and really trying. Before he could walk away, I quickly grabbed his wrist.

“Please stay,” I begged him.

He just nodded his head and climbed into bed next to me. I pulled him in close to cuddle with me and he just sighed. Something was on his mind.

“Haz, what’s wrong?” I asked him. I hadn’t called him that in so long but it just slipped out of my mouth so naturally. I felt him tense up when I called him that. He paused and there was a long silence between us and I thought that he would never answer.

“It’s just that, I have hurt you so much and I never thought that this would be happening and I told you that I would earn your trust again, but here I am cuddling with you and it brings back that sense of belonging that I had been missing for so long. I really want to make this work Niall, but I feel like I am taking advantage of you sleeping in the same bed,” he confessed to me.

I wasn’t prepared for that and I could see where he was coming from. I wanted him here though, I have been missing him cuddling me in the night and telling me things were going to be alright. I pulled him closer and snuggled into his neck.

“If I didn’t want you to be here Haz, you wouldn’t be, now stop complaining and let’s get some sleep, yeah?” I responded.

He relaxed into my touch and began drawing circles around the top of my hand with his thumb. I felt so much safer with him being there and it wasn’t too long before I fell into a deep slumber with dreams of Harry in them.

I woke up the next morning with a delicious smell permeating my room. My stomach started to growl and I got up out of bed. I trudged my way to the kitchen and stopped in the doorway. Harry was cooking in the kitchen in nothing but his boxers and he looked HOT. His bed head looked really well on him and god he is just so gorgeous. He must have caught me staring at him because the next thing I know, there are arms wrapped around me and I look up to see him smiling at me.

“See something that you like babe?” he asked. There was such huskiness in his voice it sent chills down my spine and not the bad kind either.

I started tracing his tattoos that were on his chest and stomach with my finger and I could feel him shiver under my touch.
