A/N: I'm going to rewrite this because it's very similar to one think that I've read so yeah. After all my request and stuff this will be rewritten but I'll probably still keep the original.

You went to take your medicine after you ate you breakfast; like every morning. That's when you noticed that you had no medicine left. It was a Sunday that meant you couldn't go to your doctors and get a new prescription until the next day, "isn't this great" you thought.

Niall came back to the kitchen after he used the restroom "What are you doing?" he said as he saw you standing in front of the open medicine cabinet.

"Oh nothing I just needed some Tylenol for my back." you said closing the cabinet. You had been dating Niall for about a year you had managed to hide you ADHD for that long and you weren't going to let that change since you had moved in with him two weeks ago.

"Oh" he said not pondering more on the subject. "Well I have the day off and was thinking that we could have a lazy day?" Niall asks.

"Sounds great babe" you said walking up to him and ruffling his hair. A bright smile along with a joyful giggle escaped from Niall. You both knew what lazy days meant: cuddling, watching movies and staying in your pajamas all day. "Great" you thought as you both walked to the living room to choose a movie. It wasn't that you didn't want to have a lazy day with him because you really did after all he had been preparing for his next world tour. However it was extremely hard for you to stay still and focus on a movie when you didn't have your medicine.

Ten minutes later and you were both on the couch and had a DVD playing. Niall had been spooning you for a couple of minutes, when you started to become extremely antsy. You wiggled your toes and kept on playing with your fingers. "[Y/N] is everything okay?" Niall asked wondering as to why you were so fidgety.

"Oh yeah sorry." you said as you stopped moving. A few minutes later it began happening again; Niall paused the movie.

"[Y/N] are you okay? Do you not like the movie? Do you want to do something else?" Niall asked.

You turned to face him and said "I'm okay and I want to watch the movie and lay here with you bu-".

"Then why do you keep moving around?" Niall asked baffled.

You let out a huff of air "I guess I can't hide this forever" you thought to yourself.

"Niall" you said looking into his aqua blue eyes while you took a deep breath and released it, "I have ADHD, and I've had it for years. I forgot to get my medicine refilled so I haven't taken my pill today." Tears slowly started forming in your eyes threatening to spill onto your cheeks.

Niall pulled you into a hug and whispered in your ear "Princess why didn't you tell me?"

You pulled back and looked at him again. "I was afraid that you'd think differently of me" you said.

"I would never" he replied brushing the hair out of your face. "Yeah well a lot of people do after I tell them, I'm sorry for not telling you." you said.

"No, I'm sorry it's not that I want you to feel bad about not telling me. It's just that I want you to feel like you can tell me well anything and everything. However it's up to you to decide who you do and don't want tell." Niall said.

"Well I accept your apology and thank you" you said hugging him again. When you pulled back you noticed the look on Niall's face, he wanted to say something. "What is it?" you asked.

"You know me too well" Niall said grinning and chuckling. "I was wondering if uh there's anything I can do to help you stay still or anything" Niall said, "I know it's stupid but".

"Actually, you can help me" you said cutting him off and standing up, "lay flat". Niall did as he was told, then you laid yourself on top of him. You had done this before with Niall but this wasn't his favorite way to hold you. He lazily put his arms around your waist.

"Niall could you um please like hold me ugh tighter please" you shyly asked him.

You started to blush Niall saw this and kissed your cheek and replied "of course darling". You suddenly felt his strong arms pull your body closer to his and heard him giggling.

"What?" you asked looking up at him.

"Not that I mind this but how does this help you?" he asked.

"I don't know it just does. I guess it calms me down." you said.

"Okay then" Niall said running his calloused hands through your hair.

Niall started the movie again; he was still skeptical if this would really work. His calloused hands traveled under your shirt and began to rub little circles onto your back. You made it through the rest of the movie without wiggling at all.

"I have to admit that I didn't think that it was going to work" Niall said after the movie had ended. You just stayed on top of him.

"Well it does" you said as you moved your head to look up at him.

You spent the rest of the day like you usually would watch movies and what not.

At the end of the day when Niall was spooning he brought up the matter. "Hey what do you think about maybe going off your medicine well at least on the weekends?" Niall asked cautiously.

"I wouldn't mind it. Why?" you asked skeptically.

"Well" Niall said, "I love you on and off the medicine but there's a side that I love when you're not on it."

"Really?" you asked.

"Yeah it's hard to explain but there is" Niall said, "I just want to let you know that you don't have to like always be on it when your with me ya know, but don't feel compelled to do it for me."

"Oh I'm not" you said, "it's just sometime that I can get really hyper to the point where I feel kind of out of control and I don't like it."

Niall nodded and said "do whatever you want I just don't want you to feel like you have to be on it all the time"

The next day you called your doctor and scheduled an appointment. You both agreed upon staying on your medicine during the week, but he also thought that not being fully in your medicine on the weekends would be beneficial to you. He ended up giving you some medicine that didn't last for so long on the weekends in case you needed it. Niall loves when your off your medicine he says "it really let's your true personality shine".
