Stole my heart - Niall fanfic

I'm only here because you stole my heart

'Can we fall, one more time? 

Stop the tape and rewind

Oh and if you walk away

I know I'll fade

Because there's nobody else

It's gotta be you'

I pressed pause on my ipod, the last two lines replaying in my head.

I couldn't stand this any longer. I'd been in my room for 4 hours, everyone had tried to come in but Zayn and Sophie. I knew Sophie was crying in toilet and wouldn't come out either, Harry had said, but Zayn? 

Still nothing.

I decided to get up, quickly throwing on my shades and JW hoodie, and opened the door. Louis and Liam were sitting by my door, Harry by Sophie's. I gave a weak smile to all of them, though they couldn't see the tears behind my shades, and headed straight to where Harry was.

He stood up and patted me on the back, knowing I was going to break down any second. He lead the others downstairs and left me to it.

I braced myself, trying not to be an emtional wreck when she opened the door; if she opened the door. It was silent so I could hear her wimpering and blowing her nose.

I tapped lightly on the door, loud enough for her to hear. She stopped crying but didn't get up to open the door. I knocked again but their was still no answer, just the soft sound of her sniffling.

I knew I was too weak physically to break the door and too weak emotionally to say how I felt. There was only one option left and if this didn't work I was screwed:

Playing my guitar.

I ran back into my room, grabbed my guitar and changed into a tux. I need to make a good, well amazing impression so went the extra mile: put on her favourite aftershave, grabbed her favourite flowers and lit a few candles, laying them around me.

I started playing my guitar and heard her get up.

'And as I walk up to your door

My head turns to face the floor

Cause I can't look you in the eyes and say

When he opens his arms

And hold you close tonight

It just won't feel right

Cause I can't love you more than this'

I looked up and saw her standing there: eyes red from crying, cheeks damp from the tears, but a huge smile on her face.

As soon as I saw her I dropped my guitar, burst into tears and pulled her into a hug, holding her tight so I could never let her go.

She held me tight and we started to sping around, almost knocking the candles over. Luckily I caught her in time, she laughed and started to mumble into my chest.

"Niall, I'm so so so so so so so sorr-"

I pulled her into a kiss before she could finish her sentence. She seemed shocked but kissed me back almost instantly, her pink lips were so soft and as I caressed her cheek she ran her hand through my hair.

We pulled apart at the same time, putting our foreheads against one another and smiling. Her green eyes smiling into mine, her hands round my neck.
