Justin's POV:

5 days later...

I had finally built the courage to talk to the police, about Frank.

Luckily I hadn't seen him since I'd gone to hospital, but the fear still remains because he hadn't yet been caught.

By now the media had discovered everything, and it didn't shock me when I left the hospital to be surrounded by paparazzi.

Everyone had been more than caring for me since I'd gone back to a hotel.

We of course changed hotels for my safety.

Louis had been very sorry about hitting me, he literally wouldn't shut up about being sorry and saying he didnt see me.

I didn't blame him, because I did run out without looking.

Scooter and Paul had been treating me like a child, forcing me to lay in bed and relax.

Liam, Zayn and Harry had visited with a few gifts, surprising me to say the least.

I couldn't explain what I felt.

I was happy that people were nice to me, but the thought of them only doing this because of what's happened, hurt.

I didn't want sympathy.

Niall basically never left my side, at all.

Don't think I'm joking, because I'm serious.

I attempted to go to the toilet, and I had to beg Niall to let me do my business in privacy.

I understand why he's so worried, but I still needed some privacy.

At the moment I was cuddled up against Niall as we watched 'Hardcore Pawn' .

He continuously ran his fingers effortlessly through my hair, once in a while whispering sweet nothing's in my ear.

I'd been quiet since I'd talked to the police.

They had a lot of questions, and Scooter was questioned about where he knew him from.

After all the interviewing, I was physically and emotionally tired.

Stress ate me alive at points, but I stayed strong... for everyone's sake.

But I honestly didn't think this would be perfect if it weren't for Niall.

He makes me believe in myself, just when I had a thought of giving up.

"Justin, you awake?" Niall mumbled.

"Yeah..." I whispered, turning to look up at him.

"Ever notice we're always cuddling?" Niall chuckled.

I smiled, "Yeah."

"I love you." Niall smiled.

"I love you, too." I replied.

Since we first said our 'I love you's, it had become a near every five minute thing, reminding each other that we loved each other.

Because the truth was, I did love Niall.

I loved him more than I did when I was 'In love' with Selena.

Dont get me wrong, Selena was my first real love, but now my heart belongs to Niall.

He took my breath away.

And he can keep it for as long as his heart desired.

"Do you think they'll get him?" I asked, referring to Frank.

"Yeah, they have most the police force looking for him. They'll find him, babe." Niall said, kissing my temple.

I curled up more with Niall, running a hand down his arm.

"You know, I don't know how long it will be until I'm, uh... ready.." I began.

"We don't have to talk about that." Niall sighed.

I looked up at him, "No... I just need to tell you... I'm sorry if it might take a while for me to get into that, but know that no.matter what, the only person I want to ever take that kind of commitment with is you."

"Jay..."

"I'm serious, I feel different about you. I know that you'll always be there for me, and that's why I love you. I may not be able to be the best guy for you, but I'll be the best me, for you." I smiled, kissing Niall's cheek.

"You already are the best you, and the best guy for me. I chose you because I knew you were something special." Niall sighed, pulling me down and gently kissing me.

I felt sparks, just like every time we kissed.

I felt strong, and weak at the same time when it came to having my lips on Niall's.

I lightly licked Niall's bottom lip, asking for entrance, which hr allowed.

Our tongues didnt battle, they danced, allowing me to explore the beauty inside Niall's mouth.

Pulling away, there was a bit of drool connected to our lips, leaving a trail.

Niall licked his lips, causing it to fall on his chin.

I smiled, pressing a light kiss to his nose.

"Thank you..."

"For what?" Niall asked, blushing.

"For giving me love... and strength... for giving me a chance." I simply replied, cuddling against Niall again.

"You gave me all that too, you know. I say we're pretty darn equal." With that, we both laughed, enjoying the comfort wr both had to offer.
