A/N This will be the last chapter of the story! I hope you've enjoyed it <3 :)

SOFIAS'S POV

Have you ever been in a hotel room that overlooks the entire city?

Breathtaking might not even be the correct word to describe the sight. Chills ran down my spine as I looked out of the window into the busy city, and that's not just because of the current temperature.

How on earth did I go from not having any concert tickets to sitting in Niall's hotel suite, eating breakfast with him after a night of intimacy in a period of barely 24 hours? This has to be a dream.

I heard a stifled laugh from across the table, coming from the most perfect, happy creature that was Niall. Like a ray of sunshine, his face lit up the entire room even though it was dark and snowy outside. With his help, the snow could melt away in a matter of a few laughs.

"What's so funny?" I smiled at him, unable to keep a straight face when his laughter was so contagious.

"Yer facial expression, ya look like a lil kid on Christmas Day, it's so cute," he explained.

"And that's making you laugh?" I asked, not quite agreeing to finding it THAT funny.

"YES," he spurted out into even harder laughter, to which I had to join in. His laugh was making me laugh. What a great way to spend the morning together.

As the laughter died down, wide smiles still on our faces, our eyes suddenly met. His eyes burned into mine, sending sparks flying throughout my whole body; setting my heart aflame.

"You make me so happy, darlin'. I never thought I'd find someone like you in a million lifetimes, but here ya are." He said, sounding lovestruck as he stared at me.

"Niall, if you only knew how many times I've dreamed of this happening. I might be the luckiest girl in the world, sitting here right now." I informed him, and myself, to my own disbelief.

"Yeah, that's right." He said in a breathy sigh. "I keep forgettin' how long you've been thinkin' of me, meanwhile I'm here in awe of these new feelin's. My heart," he said, placing his hand over his heart. "It feels like its flutterin'. Constantly." He finished. "I never thought I'd ever be this happy.. an' I never wanna go back to feelin' how I used ta.." He added.

"I'm not even sure if you'd be able to understand how happy you've made me, without even knowing it. My heart flutters every time I think about you. When I'm having a bad day, feeling like I don't want to go on.. your voice always makes me feel.. complete again. Filled with love." I admitted to him.

"About that," Niall spoke quickly, as if he wanted to say something before he didn't get a chance to say it. "I remember ya said yer family doesn't treat ya so well.. do they." He sounded uneasy.

"Yes, that would be correct. I'm pretty much alone." I said, point blank. "It gets lonely at times, but hearing your voice has helped me through it all." I warmly relished in the thought of how happy listening to his music makes me.

"Well, I don' want ya t' go back t' tha'." He spoke matter-of-factly, in a protective tone. Then he quickly added "If- if ya don' want ta. I mean," He sounded nervous. "I don't want you to think I'm telling you what to do," He rubbed the back of his neck.

"But Niall, where would I live-" I started to speak, but he cut me off.

"With me," he said, acting as if I should've already known the answer.

"But, Niall.." I spoke, not having enough words to respond to what he'd just said.

"We're goin' on hiatus, remember? We'll have time t' be together an' figure things out," he reminded me.
