My Brothers Bestfriend (NARRY AU)

Epilogue

Harry
It almost seems surreal, to be here standing in front of a newly purchased house. Four bedrooms and two baths and huge backyard for the kids. I couldn't even begin to believe I've come so far, I've survived some of the most difficult times. Ive fallen in love with the love of my life and I couldn't be more happier.
While I stood here with Layla on my waist and Niall standing beside me with Oliver in this arms.
I looked over at him while he himself is taking up the space in front of us. I really couldn't help but laugh as Holmes wobbled up the porch. He's such an old fart. Sadly Bella has passed away a couple years ago and I still miss her dearly.
We've grown quite a lot from college, it being 10 years later, us both having steady jobs and two beautiful kids of our own we had decided that a house for our family of four was a definite need and we'd only be a block away from Layla's school and a couple houses down from Louis and Leslie. It's a dream come true.
"Hey babe," Niall perks.
"Yes?"
"We should start moving in yeah?" He chuckles out nervously. I nodded before walking up the steps of the pouch before putting our eldest daughter down so I can unlock the door.
Layla is five and will be six shortly. Oliver is only a couple months old, as we adopted him from a lovely teen mom who wasn't ready to be a mom.
I opened up the door and the first one to run through the door was Layla.
"Look Dad!" She rushes to the kitchen where a screen door is looking out into the backyard.
I looked over at Niall and took Oliver from him so he could see what Layla is so excited about.
"It's beautiful ain't it?" Niall asks. "And it's all yours, we'll set up a swing set and and sand box even. Maybe even a tree fort? How do you like that sweet heart?"
"I love it Dad! C'mon bring Oliver over to see Daddy!" Layla is so excited about this all and I know she loves the backyard the most. We've always lived in an apartment, so having a backyard is something so new to her.
With the wedding coming up in a couple weeks, we've been just a little more than stressed than normal. Yes, Niall and I haven't married yet. We've just been so caught up with focusing on our jobs and each other that, I finally decided to man up and propose to him a year and half ago on our anniversary. Both our moms have been going frantic planning and Niall and I have been both dragged into everything in all reality we both wanted something small and intimate. Our moms both lost it on us both, it was quite entertaining.
I remember everything we've been through and I'm quite happy we've made it this far.
*flashback to 7 years ago*
"I did it Ni! I graduated University!" I shout at the top of my lungs while the love of my life stands in front of me.
"Yeah you did it babe," he says before bringing me closer into his chest and pressing his lips to mine softly. I really fucking love this man in front of me.
*flashback ends*
Niall and I always seemed to fight all the time back then and I even remembered when he came home night really drunk and I freaked on him.
*flashback to 5 years ago*
I paced back and fourth awaiting my boyfriend to arrive back from a fun night out with Louis. It's nearly 2 am and Layla is soft sound asleep in her bed.
I'm running ballistic here. How come I always trust Louis with Niall. Leslie sure has a lot of trust in him if he lets him come home later than 2 a.m.
Just when I thought I was gonna pass out from triedness the door is being blown open by Niall. He throws his hands in the air and comes straight for me and hugs me tightly.
"I love you so much Har-wy," he slurs before pressing his lips to mine making my mind get all mushy and totally forgetting why I'm even mad at him in the first place.
*flashback over*
Or when we had our first tutoring session. Now that was something to smile about.
*flashback to 11 years ago*
I throw my bag on my bed and take a seat on my window ledge.
I observe Niall as he's looking around my navy blue panted room, and the amount of books that I own. He goes to my dresser where John Greene, Mark Twain, J.K Rowling, and Ernest Hemingway and my favourite author of all Stephan King. He picks up Misery by Stephan King and nods in approval.
"You read?" I ask.
"Not really." He murmurs. He places the book back on my dresser and takes a seat on my bed
"That's fine it's not for everyone, this semester we will be reading King Lear, which I've already read at least 4 times. It's an amazing book." I smile. Niall nods his head.
"What's King Lear about?"
"It's a Shakespeare, but you probably don't want to hear about it," I say shyly. I was probably boring him.
"No, tell me." He bites his lip, and I couldn't help but watch him do so.
"Well Mr.Lockwood wouldn't want me to ruin it for ."
*flashback ends*
Ah King Lear, one of the many things that brought us closer together. My favourite memory of all of them is defiantly the night I gave Niall that promise ring. I always knew somehow or someway we were meant for each other.
*flashback to 11 years ago on Christmas Day*
"Niall," I say breaking our very comfortable silence.
"Yes Harry?" He turns and looks at me.
"I got you something." I hold the tiny little box in my hand as I fiddle with it.
"I got you something too." He sits up and grabs the box that was in my jacket pocket bring it out for full view for me to see. It was a longer box that could hold anything.
"Here." I say and try to hand him the box. "You first."
"No you first," He says, and hands me his box.
"Okay.." I trial and grab the box and he grabs mine as he rests it in his lap. "What is it?" It was a very silly question but it didn't stop me from asking.
"Open it silly," he says before I tear the wrapping paper. I open it to reveal a box and take in a breath and exhales loudly, as i read out Blue Nile on the small box.
I open the box revealing the paper plane necklace. My eyes go wide as I stare at the necklace.
"Niall it's beautiful," i blush. "Can you?"
I motion for him to help me put it on and he doesn't hold back as I turn away from him. He grabs the necklace and put it's around my neck. When it was around my neck I turn around towards him and kiss him softly on the lips quickly.
"Thank you so much baby," i say. "Now open mine."
He nodded and looked down to his lap before opening it up.
He opened the box to a grey band, Niall's mouth fell agape as he starred at the box in his lap. I really hope he likes it.
"Harry.." He trails.
"Is it too soon?" I chokes. It worries me that it may be a little to soon.
"God no, it's beautiful." His face breaks into a smile. "I love you," he says. I couldn't contain the flips that are going off in my stomach.
"I love you Niall James Horan."
* end of flashback*
It was one of the greatest memory of my high school life. And one of my greatest blessings.
*flashback to last year*
I sat here in front of Niall, before him telling me that we are finally got approved for adopting another kid. There was no any better time to do this, it was the day. So while Niall stood in front of me happiest guy in the entire world. I got down on one knee.
He almost looked as if he's gonna faint but he kept his cool before a tear slipped down his cheek.
"Niall James Horan, from the day I started tutoring you to the day we found a surrogate to give birth to our beautiful baby girl, I have loved you threw it all and I can't believe I hadn't done sooner."
Niall let's a cute little goofy chuckle. It made my heart warmer.
"Will you marry me?"
"Yes! Yes! A million times Yes! I thought you'd never ask," he shouts before bringing me up to bring his lips to mine.
*flashback over*
"Hey Ni?" He looks over at me and nods. "I love you."
He still can't contain his smile. It's my favourite obvious thing about him; his smile. So sweet and innocent when he's happy.
"I love you Harry." He kisses my lips softly and bends down to pick Layla up. "We're okay."
"We're okay."
I almost felt as if I needed to make sure for assurance because we are okay and nothing is changing about us. Absolutely nothing. We're okay.

So after all the Kings lived happily ever after...
