I pulled away from Niall's hug and wipe my tears. Niall lifts my chin, so that I'll be facing him. I see my reflection through his eyes.

"Do you forgive me?" Niall asked sincerely

"Yeah!" I gave him a weak smile

"Now if you would excuse me I still have a cup of tea to bring to my mother" Niall said getting the cuppa from the counter and walking away

When he was gone, I let out a chuckle. I went in the living room and started playing the grand piano. My fingers run smoothly in each keys as the sweet music fills the air. When the intro was done, I started singing along.

"People say we shouldn't be together. Too young to know about forever, and I say they don't know what they're talk talk talkin' about. Cause this love is only getting stronger, so I don't wanna wait any longer" I sing

Suddenly I heard a voice butted in, "I just wanna tell the world that you're mine, girl. They don't know about the things we do. They don't know about the I Love You's, but I bet you if they only knew"

I started singing along with the voice, "They will just be jealous of us. They don't know about the up all night's. They don't know that I've waited all my life just to find a love that feels this right. Baby, they don't know about they don't know about us"

I finish the song and turn to face the person who sang with me. It was Niall. He's actually leaning on the book shelf crossing his arms staring at me.

"I didn't know you can play the piano" Niall walk towards me

"Now you know" I smiled and Niall sits beside me

"How old were you when you started playing the piano?" Niall asked placing his arm around my shoulder

"Around 4. My mom taught me how to play the piano" I muttered

"I'm sorry" Niall kisses my forehead

"It wasn't your fault that she died. You only made me remember our memories together" I said giving him a peck on his neck

"I'm still sorry" Niall replied

"Whatever" I roll my eyes and we both got up from the chair

We went to the pool area were we sat on the edge of the pool dipping our foot in. I remember the last time I was here, Niall and I were fighting. Suddenly, Niall's phone beep. He got his phone out of his pocket and read the text message. After reading the message, he placed his phone back to his pocket.

"We need to go shopping" Niall gets up

"Why?" I asked in confusion

"I'll tell you later" Niall reach out his hand for me to take

"But I need to get ready!" I gladly held his hand and he pulled me up

"You already look beautiful" Niall places his hand on my back

We went in the house and I grab my white wedge, while Niall got his supras. We went out of the house and went in his car and drove off.

After a few minues of driving, we finally arrived in a huge building. Elegant dresses were display on the window and the whole building is painted with white. I got out of the car and Niall snake his arm around my waist, and we started walking headed to the front door.

"Why are we going shopping again?" I asked

"There will be a party tomorrow night" Niall answered

The door flew open and a young lady dressed formally greeted us with a smile. The whole place is awesome, but a girl like me shouldn't be in here. This place is for the rich people only.

"Nice to see you again, Mr. Horan" the girl said

"Hello! Gretchen" Niall replied

"What can I get you?" Gretchen asked

"I need a dress for my girlfriend" Niall smiled

Gretchen turn to face me and she smiled, "Follow me please!"

I involuntarily followed Gretchen leaving Niall talking to a bald man.

"So, what's your waist line?" Gretchen asked placing her hand on her chin

"I don't know" I shrug

"Well, I guess all of our dresses here fits you, cause you've got those curves" she said "So this is exactly what I want you to do. I want you to try all of the dresses that I'm going to give you and show it to Niall" she added

"Oh!" I muttered

Gretchen walks away and when she was back she's already holding a dress. She basically push me in the dressing room giving me the dress.

I pulled my dress and wear the dress that Gretchen told me to try. I look at myself in the mirror and I was like woah! This dress is beautiful. It's a sleveless silk dress with laces around the edge. I push the curtains to the right and went outside.

Niall was already sitting on the white couch just in front of the dressing room reading a magazine. He look up to me when he heard the curtains open. Gretchen stands beside the couch with her hands on her hip.

"Mr. Horan, what do you think?" Gretchen asked looking at Niall

"It barely covers her body. I mean look at her the dress falls until her thighs and her cleavage is showing. Let me clarify this to you Gretchen! It's only me who can see her cleavage" Niall's voice was serious but I wanted to laugh but I decided to go against it

"I also think it doesn't fit her" Gretchen replies and after that she walk away

She got back with another dress in hand and I was again force to try it. I immediately remove the first dress from my body and change it with the dress that Gretchen got. The dress was a long black dress. It actually falls until my toes. I was having a hard time closing the zipper, so I told Gretchen to help me and she gladly did.

When I got out of the dressing room, Niall's reaction was priceless. I wanted to roll on the floor and laugh, but it's not appropriate for me to do that.

"Gretchen, this is bullshit! Where do you think she's going? To a church?" Niall said running his fingers through his hair

Gretchen sighs and disappear again. Gretchen was back in a minute, but this time she's holding 2 dresses in hand. I think she did that, so she won't have to walk back and forth. Gretchen handed me the dress on her right hand and I went back in the dressing room.

So I change the dress and to my surprise the dress felt comfortable. The white dress falls until my knee and it's sleeveless, but it doesn't show my cleavage. I suppose Swarovski diamonds were placed on the dress, cause it looks beautiful and elegant.

I went out of the dressing room and Niall's mouth falls open, while Gretchen accidentally drops the dress she was holding. I stare at them both with confusion.

"C-C-Could you p-p-please turn around?" Gretchen stutters swirling her finger

"Okay!" I mumbled and turn around

"Oh my god!" Gretchen exclaims

"Why?" I finally ask

"That dress looks so perfect!" Niall gets up from the couch and walk towards me looking at me up and down

"I told you, you've got those awesome curves" Gretchen compliments and I flush

"Are these Swarovski?" I asked

"Yes! Indeed they are" Gretchen smiles

"I'm buying this!" Niall said

"Oh no! This is way expensive. I can't pay you" I back away

"Who said you're paying me? Just think that it's a gift given by me" Niall chuckles

"But-" I trailed off

"No but!" Niall spat and I decided to keep my mouth shut

"How much is it?" Niall went back to Gretchen
