I Will Always Love You - A Niall Horan Love Story

Epilogue

*4 Years Later* 

The band broke up last year, but they're still great friends and always hang out, as they do all live in London. 

Today is little Niall's fourth birthday and we are all having a barbeque at Harry's and Stacey's house that they moved into after they got married a year after Stacey gave birth to Niall. 

Niall and I got married two years ago. Danielle and Liam ended up getting back together and now they're happily married as well. Louis and Eleanor got married as well, and now they have a little two year old girl, Ellie. 

Zayn still hasn't found the right girl, but I know he will. He'll find the perfect girl that will love him for him. 

"Aunty Charlie and Uncle Niall!" Little Niall squeals, hugging both our legs as we enter the backyard, where everyone else is. 

"Hey little dude. Happy Birthday!" Niall says, crouching down in front of him and handing him his present. 

"Happy Birthday Niall." I say, crouching down as well. "That's your present from us." 

"Thank you." He giggles, kissing both our cheeks before running off inside with it. 

"Hey, Niall, don't open it yet!" Harry calls after him from where he is at the barbeque. 

"I feel so Australia; having a barbeque." Niall says, sighing happily before we hug everyone a hello. 

"Where's Ellie?" I ask and as if on cue, a mini version of Eleanor runs out of the house with little Niall. 

"I'm here!" She shouts, running into my arms. 

"Hey, Ellie. How are you?" I ask, spinning her around. 

"I'm good. Can we play barbies?" She asks immediately, giggling. 

"Sure." I say and she runs off to get them. I take a seat next to Danielle on the porch stairs, watching as Niall and Harry talk while drinking beer, Louis dancing on a table and Zayn and Liam laughing at him. Eleanor is on the other side of Danielle. 

"Some people never change." I say, pointing to Louis and we laugh. 

"How's the pregnancy? Is it being a bitch?" Eleanor asks me. 

"Yeah. Even though I'm only two month pregnant, I already hate it. Why can't this thing grow up fast and get the hell out of me?" I say, rubbing my small stomach. 

"Yeah, I hated it as well, but it was worth it. Ellie is absolutely beautiful." 

"She is." Danielle and I agree. 

For the next ten minutes, Ellie and I play with her Barbies until we are called over to eat. We all sit around the long table and grab food, putting them on our plates. 

After eating, Harry stands to give a speech. "At toast... to family. Since I was sixteen, the lads have helped me grow and become the person I am today, and their wives are absolutely beautiful and amazing in every way. Thanks to my beautiful wife -- any I of course -- we now have a beautiful son. Happy Birthday buddy, and I love you all." 

We all raise our glasses and cheer. 

After eating, Niall and I sit on the swinging chair they have. I lie down and put my head on Niall's lap. He immediately starts playing with my hair. 

"Thank you, Niall." I whisper. 

"For what?" He asks, laughing. 

"For everything." 

"Well then, you are very welcome." He says, kissing me. "I love you." 

"I love you too." 

"No, I really mean it. You're so amazing, Charlie. I love you so much. Never forget that." He explains, kissing me again. 

"How can I when I have 'Never Forget...' tattooed on my wrist?" I ask cheekily, referring to the tattoo on the outside of my wrist. Niall has the exact same tattoo. 

"I love you." He says. 

"I love you too." 

We lie there and he continues to play with my hair, but at the same time, we look each other in the eyes and whisper the same five words. 

"I will always love you."
