Niall's POV

I was more then ready for my wedding, I have been waiting almost 5 months to marry her now unfortunately, I still have four more to wait. We are slowly figuring things out, every guy talks about how much it sucks to help their bride plan the wedding but I love it. It gives me more time to discuss my future with Trisha.

Recently we have been house hunting in the Mullingar area of Ireland, Trish decided she wanted to live her, near our family. She has been getting really close to my brother Greg, his son Theo and his wife Denise. Denise and my mother have been a great help in the planning process of the wedding, since Nicole is pregnant and all Trish doesn't want her to stress out too much.

I was looking out the window and saw a small traditional Irish looking house, It looked old. The outside was a dark grey color, there were stairs that came out of the middle of nowhere leading to the front door that was big and brown. The house is simple, but I love it!

"What do you think?" Trisha laughed, pulling the car into the drive way.

"I love it actually!" We got out of the car and walked to the front door, to my surprise, it was unlocked. We walked through, It was crazy the house looked like someone just got up and left one day. "What were the owners like?" I asked.

"They seemed really nice, they decided to move because they wanted a smaller house after their kids moved out." There was a small opening that was filled with green furniture that matched the neutral color of the walls, It was the worst design I've ever seen.

"I love the house, but we may need to do some redecorating." I laughed, to the left there was a tiny area, with a large table that was too big for the room, on the walls there were picture of a family a happy family, in front of the house. I could see this being our family, I couldn't help but smile.

I could tell Trisha was happy to by the grin that appeared on her face.

To the right was a large living room, It was nice fancy almost but everything was red. The carpet, the furniture, everything. There was a massive brick fireplace that the furniture sat around. We walked back to the dining area and went through another opening which was the kitchen, It was obviously nothing fancy but it was cute. I think I like this house the most out of the other 30 houses we've seen. The kitchen was of course painted white, with old yellow appliances. There were huge windows in the back of the room, that looked out over the back yard, which had a little tire swing hanging from a large tree. There was another table in there to, It almost look like it was made for kids.

We walked back to the other side of the house were there was a basic half bath, and stairs. We walked up them, there was a large empty room. A small hallway lead down the rest of the house "how many rooms does this house have babe?" I asked.

"I believe 5." She started to laugh "Lots of kids right?" I must have given her a weird face, because she reevaluated. "Well, I mean it should be enough room for all the guys to come and stay for a while, right?" Does she think I don't want kids.

"Yeah, I think it will be great." We opened the first door to see a small pink bedroom with a baby crib in the corner, and a large stuffed animals. "Its almost creepy how many things were left behind." She shrugged. "How many bathrooms, love?"

"3 and a half, the half bath downstairs and there is a Jack-and-Jill bathroom in between all the bedrooms, then a master bathroom." We opened all the doors on the way to the door at the very end of the hallway, every bedroom looked almost the same just a different aged children's room. The bathrooms were small, but clearly usable. Finally we got to the master bed room, it was a lot larger than i expected it to be. It was painted a light blue, with a king size bed set in the middle of the room. Everything in here looked modern compared to the rest of the house, there was bamboo walls and tile flooring that went well with it.

Trisha ran and jumped on the bed. "Omg, I love it here Ni I think this is the one!" She motioned me towards the bed, I sat down next to her.

"You think it is the one babe?" I asked, even though I knew her answer.

"Oh yeah Niall." She sat up and pulled me back down with her, we sat there staring at the celing. "Can you see it baby? Can you see us living here?"

"Yeah, actually I can! Can you see us here, with our kids playing in the back yard while we prepare dinner?" I smiled. "Could you see us hiding away in here, trying to stay away from them paps?" We laughed together.

"I wanna be here Niall!" She shuck with excitement. She rolled over and kissed me.
