Niall's Pov:

Last summer was the most amazing time of my life. It was filled with so many memories that I hold close to my heart always. I went to visit my cousin in Bradford. I'd never been before so I was looking forward to it. Compared to Ireland, Bradford is massive, It's full of so many people. Among those people was a boy, A boy called Zayn. I met him at my cousins music showcase. We hit it off straight away. Zayn and I had so much in common We shared the same love for music, We both had a understanding about the way it makes us feel. We loved the same food and above all else we just got along. Zayn was easy to talk to, The conversation never seemed to get boring. After the showcase we exchanged numbers and promised to meet up again. The day after we first met we met up again. We went for a pizza lunch and got to know eachother even more. He made me laugh, I don't mean a small chuckle, I mean a full on eyes fill with tears and ribcage aches laugh. Looking at Zayn you'd think he's this big bad guy, But he's not. Throughout the summer we continued to hang out. Everyday we grew closer and closer, Everday the butterflies in my stomach grew larger and larger. We fell inlove with eachother. It was the small connection we had that blossomed into something neither of us had control of. 

We cherished each day we had with eachother. We made the most of the time we had because we both knew it'd soon end, And it did. Before we both knew it the end of august had come and I was packing my bags preparing to go home. We both knew we could survive long distance but we also knew it wouldn't be fair. As hard as it was to do we agreed on ending our relationship. Still to this day I remember that painful day. I remember the goodbye that ripped my heart out. 

"I wish you didn't have to leave" Zayn mumbled with tear filled eyes. 

"Me too, If I could stay I would, You know I would" I exclaimed, Zayn nodded. "It's not forever Zayn, We both need to focus on our last year of school, After that we'll think of something" I tried assuring him, Zayn cried out before pulling me closer to him. I desperately tried fighting back my tears ,But I couldn't, I couldn't fight them.

"Promise me two things?" Zayn chocked out.

"Anything" I stated as we pulled apart. 

"Promise me you won't forget, Promise me you'll always remember no matter what happens" Zayn exclaimed.

"I promise I'll never forget" I chocked out, Zayn slowly cupped my cheek.

"And promise, Promise me you'll come back" Zayn whispered, I nodded my head before quickly burying my head in the crock of his neck.

"I promise I'll come back for you" With a pain in my heart and chest I dragged my feet towards my aunts car. With a heavy heart I watched as she drove away, Zayn's figure grew smaller and smaller until he just wasn't there anymore.

The months dragged on and on. All the time I spent away from Zayn darkened my world. I wasn't cheery anymore. I wasn't happy. We tried keeping contact but it got tricky. Eventually Zayn and I only spoke a couple of times a month. It hurt being away from him. Everybody noticed a change in me. I didn't wanna do anything. My body felt tired all the time. It felt like the months were dragging on slowly and slowly. I didn't know how I did it but I made it through. I sat all my exams and before I knew it summer had come around again. I kept my promise to Zayn I booked myself on the first flight to Bradford, Called my aunt and informed her I would be coming, I then packed a bag and headed straight for the airport.

Being back In Bradford feels strange to me. I have so many amazing memories here but also a painful one. The good memories I've held onto for the past year. I had so much to tell Zayn. I couldn't wait to see his face again. The moment I arrived at my aunts I quickly dropped my bag before heading straight out the door again. I didn't call him and tell him I was coming, I wanted to surprise him. I couldn't wait to see Zayn's face light up with happiness and have him take me in his arms and hold me close. When Zayn's house came into view I became nervous. I slowly approached his house with questions running through my head. What if he's moved on? What if he's fallen for somebody new? What if his feelings towards me have changed? Are his feelings still as strong as mine are? I swallowed a dry lump in my throat before taking a deep breath, I then knocked on the door and stood back. My hearts pounding inside my chest. My throats dry and I'm shaking, I don't think I've ever been this nervous before. I could hear every sound around me, The blow of the wind, The rustle of the leaves, The sound of cars in the distance, Children screaming at the park. The door being unlocked from inside. When the door was opened I was greeted by those familiar eyes, The eyes I hadn't seen in a year. 

"Niall?" Zayn chocked out, I smiled warmly at him.

"Hi Zayn" I said, Zayn's eyes scanned my face a few times before he slowly moved aside allowing me access into his home.  I quickly walked inside and Zayn closed the door behind me. 

"Is, Is it really you?" He chocked out, I nodded my head as Zayn cupped my cheek

"It's really me" I assured him, Zayn instantly collapsed into my open arms, I held him close inhaling the smell of his aftershave and deodorant. 

"Why? Why didn't you tell me you was coming?!" Zayn stated as his hold on me tightened.

"I wanted to surprise you" I replied, Zayn sighed happily.

"You came back. You really came back" He exclaimed, I nodded my head slowly.

"I made you a promise Zayn, I'd never break a promise to you" I stated when Zayn looked up at me, He only leaned forward and pressed his lips against mine. 

"I love you Niall" Zayn said, I ran my fingers gently through his hair. 

"I love you too, I always have" I exclaimed, Zayn and I embraced once again. No matter what the obstacle infront of us was, We'd make it through. We survived distance so I knew we could survive everything else.
