After the funeral, Denise dropped me

off. I wanted Niall back. He was my

world. My life. Simply my everything.

And like I've said before, I truly loved

him. Not because he was handsome,

because he got me through everything.

If Niall wasn't there for me, I would've

been dead at the age of 13. But he

helped me to see the beauty in life and

he taught me how to love. He was my

first kiss and I wish he was here to kiss

me again. I thanked Denise for

dropping me home and walked inside. I

trudged up the stairs and into my

bedroom. I opened my bedroom door

and found his guitar in the corner of

the room. Tears came rapidly as I

walked to his guitar. I held it and it

brought back so many memories. The

first time he played a song for me, the

time he taught me how to play, the way

he acted as a madman if I threatened to

damage it. The first song he played for

me was a song he wrote. I wanted to

play it but I couldn't. This is the last

piece of him I have of him. I set it down

again as I took a look around my room.

Everything reminded me of him. Even

my bed reminded me if him. That's

where he kissed me for the first time

and told me he loved me. I wiped my

tears and took my heels off and

stripped of the dress. I took out a pair

of sweats and a tee shirt and slipped

them on. I washed my face in the

bathroom and I opened the medicine

cabinet. My razors were gone. 'No they

were here before I left' I thought. I

slammed the cabinet closed and found

my brother in my room. "Get out!" I

screamed. Although he's older than me

I had the right to yell. He got up and

approached me and gave me a hug.

"Julie I'm so sorry." I sobbed harder

when I heard those words. After years

of bickering back and forth, he feels

sorry for me. "Shh Julie it's-" "Don't

say it." "Ok I won't." He whispered in

my hair. "Do you want to watch some

movies and eat some ice cream?" "Can

we?" "Anything for you." I smiled, on

the inside but I nodded. "Ok come

down stairs and we'll have a marathon

of movies. Just you and me." I nodded

as I grabbed a sweater. But it was his

sweater. I put it on and smelled it. His

cologne was over it and reminded me

of the good times we had. I put my

hands in the pockets and felt a velvet

box in the left pocket. I pulled it out

and opened it. "Julie is that a-"

"Promise ring. Yes. Yes it is." There was

neatly folded note that read:

Dear Julianne,

We've been together since babies and I

can't help but to have these special

feelings for you. You make me weak

yet strong. Brave yet scared that I

may lose you. Happy yet sad when we

don't have the same classes. What I'm

trying to say is that I love you. The

only way can say this is by song. But I

don't have much time considering that

my parents want me home soon. But

just know that your amazing just the

way you are. And you'll never love

yourself half as much as I love you. So

what I'm trying to say is, will you,

Julianne Marie Parker, make me the

most happiest man on earth and be

my lovely girlfriend? - Niall

Even reading this letter made me cry.

I looked at the ring and saw how

beautiful it was. It was gold ring with

my birthstone which was Garnet in the

middle. I slid the ring on my finger and

it was a perfect fit. "Yes Niall. I will be

your girlfriend." I whispered looking at

the ring. Then the heavy rain stopped. I

looked up at Jonathan and he too was

stunned. Then the sun came up and lit

up the whole room. I looked back at the

ring and it too seemed to glow. "Niall's

really happy now." John said smiling.

"Yea. I bet he is." Niall saved me from

hurting myself and he brought back the

sun. I smiled as I walked down stairs to

watch some movies with my brother.

Even though Niall isn't here physically,

he is and will always be there for me.

From now until the end of time.
