Chapter Thirty-Six

I woke up alone one morning, just few months after Niall had come back into my life. I was still having nightmares of him leaving me... Sometimes I'd wake up in the middle of the night screaming. I clawed desperately at the empty sheets next to me, almost bursting into tears as nothing came up.

"Ni?" I gasped out, sitting up in the bed. It really was empty though... All except a damn envelope. That's when my heart stopped beating again...

Had he really broken his promise that quickly?

Despite everything we've been through to get to this moment?

With shaky hands I picked it up, holding my breath as I opened the envelop.

Good morning,

I know you're probably freaking out cause I'm not there, but don't. I didn't leave you... I've just decided that we're gonna play a little game? How does a scavenger hunt sound? I think it sounds pretty good if you ask me... So have you checked on Lizzie yet this morning?

Love,

Niall

All the fear I'd felt just moment before disappeared, and I couldn't fight the smile on my face. I climbed out of the bed, holding the piece of paper in my hand. I walked down the hallway, opening the door that led to Lizzie's room. She wasn't in her crib, making me frown a little, but I wasn't too worried. She was more than likely with Niall. I walked closer to the crib, pulling out the second envelope.

It's good to know that this isn't going to be all that difficult for you. I'd hate to be waiting for too long.... It'll probably get cold where we're going...You're gonna be excited once you figure it out... I know I can hardly wait. You're probably wondering where Lizzie is now, well think of the only two who we trust to watch her... What do we call them again? Ziam? Something along those lines... They'll be waiting for you.

Forever,

Niall

I couldn't keep the grin off my face now. This was by far the sweetest thing he'd ever done for me... I got dressed in record time, and made my way over to Liam and Zayn's place. I knocked on the door, only to have it opened in a matter of seconds. Zayn looked exhausted, a crying Lizzie in his arms.

"Take her, for the love of god, take her." He mumbled, handing her off to me. She shut up almost instantly, curling into my side.

"How long as she been here?"

"Since 6 this morning. Niall came at 6 in the bloody morning with her! He just told us he needed someone to watch Lizzie while he went to set some stuff up for you. She hasn't stopped crying since, and I'm seriously about to kill him." Zayn grumbled, shutting the door behind me once I entered the apartment.

"He's over reacting. He's just tired is all Harry. Don't worry about it though, she probably just wanted either you or Ni." Liam offered me a smile, which I gladly returned.

"So she wasn't much trouble then?" Liam just chuckled at me, pulling me into a one armed hug. Lizzie whined, pushing Liam away from me the best she could.

"Mine." She mumbled, glaring at Liam. 

"She's definitely Niall's.... Anyways, I'm sure you're here for this." Liam handed me a small envelope, one with the same handwriting as the other two. I took it with a smile, opening it to the best of my ability with Lizzie in my arms. 

Ziam! Liam + Zayn = Ziam! Do you get it? I feel so clever for coming up with that myself. I hope Lizzie wasn't too much for them to handle.... Although they're gonna be taking care of her tonight as well, but that's beside the point. When the clock strikes four, I want you to go back home. There will be clothes sitting on the bed waiting for you. Don't come before then or you'll ruin your surprise.

 Always,

Niall

I walked through the front door just a few moments after four, following Niall's instructions like he asked. I had a nice day just sitting around with Zayn and Liam, sharing old memories, and laughing about the new ones. Just as I was promised, there was a pair of clothes set on the bed. They were fancy, not that I was really expecting anything simpler. Niall was planning something big, I just didn't know what. I found the next letter in the pocket of the blazer that sat on the bed. 

Almost there, I'm sure you're nearly peeing your pants in anticipation! But don't worry, only an hour or so more my love. I want you to be ready by 5:30, Liam will be stopping by with the last letter revealing my location. 

I love you,

Niall 

I sighed, he was right... I was getting kind of antsy now. I wanted to know what he was up to! I glanced at the clock, and decided I should get into the shower before changing. I didn't take a long one, considering I only had about forty minutes till Liam showed up. Once I was dressed into the clothes Niall left me, Liam knocked on the front door. I walked (more like ran) to it, throwing it open with a smile. Liam held a rose, along with the last letter. 

Congratulations on making it this far, meet me where we first met... 

See you soon xx

Niall 

"I'm supposed to take you there, he didn't want you walking." I rolled my eyes at that comment, but walked to Liam's car anyways. He took me to the bridge that held so many memories. My breath caught in my throat as I saw the rose petals that made a path to a table. No one was sitting at it yet , but I could see a white envelope on the table. I walked up to it as fast as I could, picking it up.

I lied about the last letter being the last one, but we both know it was for a good reason. Harry... My Harry, I love you more than I've ever loved anything else in my life. You are my everything, and I never ever want to lose you again. Losing you was the worst thing that's ever happened to me, and even though you've forgiven me for leaving... I don't think I'll ever truly be able to forgive myself. I've done a lot of wrong where you're concerned, but yet you still found it in you to forgive me. 

I love you Harry, and I am never going to let you go again. Remember all those promises we made when we were younger? The ones involving us being together forever?

Remember when you asked me to marry me?

Well, I need you to look up now, I don't care if you're confused...

Look up,

Niall 

So I did, gasping as I saw Niall standing in front of me. He had a smile wider than the English Channel on his face, he was dressed in a nice suit, and had a small box in his hand. 

"Harry... Harold Edward Styles, I have an important question for you..." He whispered, and I almost started to cry when he got down on one knee.

"Harry... Will you marry me?" 

Time stood still for a moment as I stared at him shock. All of the broken hearts we'd both shared, all the tears, all the laughs... all the pain was building up to this moment...

And all I had to say was yes.
