Imperfections Make Us Perfect {Nouis}

Louis never thought he was perfect. Niall knew he was and he was determined to show his pretty boyfriend that he really is.

* * * *

"Hey, Lou. Come upstairs with me?" Niall held his hand out for Louis to take, smiling at him when the brown haired boy entwined his fingers with his own.

"Sure." Louis mumbled, a small smile on his face. He knew what Niall was going to do and he was getting nervous. He hated Niall talking about his body.

Climbing the stairs was easy for Niall, hard for Louis. He didn't eat and he didn't sleep as much as a twenty two year old should so he was weak. Niall stopped at the top of the stairs, turning around to face Louis with their hands still linked and smiled, kissing Louis' head before pulling his closer and diverting his boyfriend into their shared bedroom before Louis could make a run for it.

"Look in the mirror." Niall stood behind Louis in their bedroom. The shorter boy shook his head and turned to face Niall. 

"Please, I don't want to." Louis had tears in his eyes as he tried to push away from Niall to get out the room but he was weak and Niall knew he'd try to escape.

"Please. For me?" Niall kissed his head again and Louis resumed his spot in front of Niall and the mirror.

"What do you see?" Niall whispered to Louis, putting his lager hands on Louis' smaller hips. 

"A fat loser and his perfect, Irish boyfriend." Louis huffed and looked at the floor.

"Wrong answer, Lou. I see me and then I see my boyfriend. The one who tries so hard to make other people happy that he forgets about himself. I see my strong boyfriend, the one who fights for our relationship because we all know I couldn't face the interviewers, the fans and our parents. I see a boy who's tricked himself into thinking he isn't perfect when deep down he knows, just like the rest of us know, that he is perfect and his name is Louis William Tomlinson." By the time Niall finished, Louis was crying. Niall was talking slowly, hoping the words would sink into Louis' brain to make both the boys feel better.

He knew what he was doing to his body was wrong and he was being selfish but he wanted to be perfect on the outside, just like Niall told him every night for three years but he couldn't see that he ever would be.

"Niall, I love you so much." Louis turned around and wrapped his thin arms around Niall's neck, crying into his shoulder.

"I love you too, my perfect boy." Niall kissed Louis' head. He knew his boy would get through this but he needed to by himself. 

* * * *

Louis did get better. He stopped worrying what people thought of him and spent more time listening to the fans who dedicated their lives to telling him how perfect his is.

He started to eat more and sleep more so he slowly became the man that Niall and his best friends knew who he really was. 

That's why he's here today. Outside a church with Niall in Ireland, kissing him for what was probably the millionth time but it felt like the first and listening to his family and friends cheering because not only was he now happy with himself, he was happy with his new name. Louis William Tomlinson-Horan and he couldn't wait to meet the little girl or boy that they would adopt and start a family with. Niall was strict about only having one child but Louis had his heart set on having twin boys so they wouldn't feel alone because Louis knows that feeling and he never wants anyone to go through dealing with that.
