Chapter 44:

NIALL

I arrived at Erik's house, surprised when I already saw him waiting outside, leaning against his car, which was still much better than my own. He was a well-paid doctor though, and all I did was move boxes and furniture for people.

I got out of my car and walked over to him. He stood upright, holding both of my hands in his as he pulled me in for a kiss. "You looks beautiful, as always." He commented, always knowing how to make me smile- and blush.

"So, where are we going?" I questioned as he walked me around the car to the passenger's seat. I thanked him as he opened the door for me, and I got in. He walked around the car and got into his seat as well before turning the car on and looking at me as he began answering my question.

"You know how you said fireplaces reminded you if good times?" He questioned, and I nodded, wondering where he was going with this. "Well, I decided to show you a place that reminds me of my good memories as well. Figured it was only fair." He said, and I was a bit nervous but also excited. It's how I always felt whenever I was learning something new about Erik.

"It is, indeed." I said, looking out of the window as he began driving. It was silent in the car, but it wasn't an awkward sort of silence. It was a comfortable one. One that held so many conversations without a word being said. I think that's how you know that you're truly comfortable and happy with a person. When the silence isn't awkward or empty.

"Is this place far? Is it somewhere you went with someone special? And if so, who was this person? And their name would be nice, too." I said, hearing Erik give out a small laugh at all of my questions.

"It's not too far, you're the only person who will know about it, and I like it because of something my mum once told me when I was little." He replied, and I nodded, looking at the window again, but I noticed that the car stopped. How long were we sitting in silence exactly?

I turned to look at Erik and froze, blushing as I saw how close he was to me. He smiled and said "There's nobody else, Niall. No need to get jealous." I frowned and crossed my arms as I got out of the car.

"I'm not jealous. Just curious." I said as he walked around the car to my side. I held my breath as he entrapped me against the car door, one hand on either side of my body as he leaned in, his natural scent and minimal amount of cologne basically intoxicating.

"It's okay to be jealous. Remember, I was the one jealous of your ex-boyfriend." He said, reminding me of that conversation we had where he confessed he felt Harry wasn't right for me.

"Still don't understand why you were jealous. You could literally have anyone you want. I mean, you're basically perfection. There are only guys like you on the big screens. Girls and guys would literally beg to be with you. And I'm nothing special. Don't you ever think you're wasting your time?" I asked, looking down because I was beginning to feel really insecure. He was so close, and I was only use to rejection. No one has ever let me in this deep, and I was frightened of what the outcome would be.

"Niall," He sighed out lovingly, making my heart race as he lifted my chin between two fingers and pressed a soft, yet meaningful, kiss to my lips. "You're the only one I want. I'm definitely not wasting my time. I love you, and don't ever forget that. You're absolutely beautiful, and if anything, I'm the one lucky to call you mine. I try my hardest to be perfect for you, but I know I'm not. Maybe I am to you, though, but guess what? You're just as perfect to me." He said, making me nod in understanding before he pecked my lips again and pulled my hand into his. "Now follow me."
