I thought about this song, and I thought it was cute. I always saw "song imagines" in books that I read.
so I decided to give it a shot :)

Act My Age ; One Direction
When I'm fat and old and my kids think I'm a joke
"Dad!" Your 15 year old daughter shouts, out of embarrassment.
Mario had shouted "SAVAGE" to a guy whom your daughter was hanging out with.
You giggled, looked at your daughter who's face was as red as a tomato.
Mario was 40, You were 39. He still acted through alot of movies, which most came as a blockbuster.
He had a little belly, just a bit. And you thought it was cute.
He turned the radio on, while driving to your house.
"All the single ladies, all the single ladies"
"OH MY GOD BEYONCÉ THE QUEEEEEN" You squealed.
"Ew. Who is she?" Your daughter looks up from her high-tec phone.
"She was the queen of music back in our day. She ruled us" Mario got happy.
"Tch, you're such a joke dad"
Cause I move a little slow when I dance
You and Mario had been invited to the school about a parent something-something program
You guys heard your song, You looked up.
"With any boy students, please dance with your mom. With any girl students, please dance with your dad" The announcer said.
"Fine, whatever" Your daughter takes Mario's hand.
"Dad! Go faster. You're so slow! Ugh" You look at her eyes.
He sighed, a man at his 40's.
You looked at him, he looked at you.
You smiled and mouthed, "Dance like you're with me"
I can count on you after all that we've been through
'Cause I know that you'll always understand
"Ugh!" You heard shouting from the bathroom.
You hurried, "Mar, what's wrong?" You opened the door out of worry.
"There's—There's too much! Too much words to understand too much lines to memorize" He cried.
You pat his back, "Look, we can all have dinner as a family on that restaurant that newly opened. Perhaps it might take your mind out of it"
"Yeah, you're right. Can you practice with me, please (y/n)" He said.
"Of course, I'm your wife silly" You laughed.
"I love you"
"Love you too"
I won't act my age, no, I won't act my age
No, I'll still feel the same around you
Hey!
"Mario Selman, kissed (y/n) Selman infront of the interviewers and paparazzi. Talk about how this guy is on his 40's and still acts 16!"
You giggled at the report. Mario suddenly hugs you from behind, he picks you up and spins you around.
Like he always did when you were 17.
"You just never change don't you" You smiled, and caught your breath.
"Never, because you're in my life. You changed a lot in my life, I was the uncolored page of a coloring book. You were the crayons, you colored me to happiness"
When I'm fat and old and my kids think I'm a joke
'Cause the stories that I told, I tell again and again
"Dada! Come tell me a story" Your 7-year old son tells.
"Okay, Lucas. Calm down" Mario smiled.
You peeked at your son's bedroom.
"Once upon a time, there was a prince–"
"Dad! You twold me that last time" He frowns.
"Really? Wow.." He blushed.
"Yeah.. but I guess I'll still listen.."
I can count on you after all we got up to
'Cause I know that you truly understand
- (continuation)
"Lucas, Daddy?" You smiled upon entering the room.
They both looked up, you grabbed a storybook from your 15-year-old daughter's old room which was now a storage room.
It was about a Turtle and a lion. (pls forgive me cause I just heard this story in chinese)
"It's the thinking Turtle, and it's supposed to have a lesson at the end" You smiled.
"There was a turtle, climbing up a high mountain. It reached a spot where there was water, he saw a little goat drinking the river water" You turned next page.
(skipped the chorus)
When I can hardly walk and my hair is falling out
You assisted Mario walking inside, his hair was getting a little thin.
"Are you okay?" Your 35 year old daughter asks out if concern.
"Yeah, I'm alright" You coughed as you walked Mario inside.
"Are you sure mom, dad?" Lucas, who was now 27 years old, asked you.
"We're fine" Mario weakly smiled and sat down.
We'll still stay up 'til morning
We'll throw the after-party, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
"Just like old times" You smiled, you were watching old films.
Beauty and the beast, Cars, Tinkerbell, Peter Pan.
"Yeah, I remember the times" Mario smiled and pulled you closer.
You looked at the clock, 2:45 AM
"I feel really young again, dear" You smiled.
