Hailey's POV

" Niall, let's not do this, " I mumble silently. " I'm scared.. I don't want to do it, and then you leave me... " I look up into his blue eyes.

" Baby, I would never even imagine doing that... And I'm honestly scared too. "

" I want to wait, " I say kissing his cheek. " I want it to be special when it happens. I don't wanna just do it because we're bored.. I love you too much. " I run my hands through his hair and roll out from under him.

" I love you too, Hailey. And I want it to be special too, you're special to me, " he gets up and hugs me. Before I know it, he's chasing me around trying to tickle me.

" Niall! Stop, " I squeal after he catches me. He wraps his arms around me.

" Hailey, guess what, " he looks into my eyes.

" You're hungry? " I ask playfully.

" No. I have the best girlfriend in the world. " He puts his hands on the side of my face, and gently kisses me. He pulls back and looks into my eyes. " I am kind of hungry though, " he laughs.

" Well, go cook you something. I have to take a shower, babe. " I give him a quick hug and kiss and go to find some new clothes. I go take a shower, as I'm shaving my legs, I accidentally cut it. That's when I look up to my belly. The scars from all the cuts are still there. I can still read " Ugly Whore " on my side. I begin to cry as I remember all the hateful things I used to be told or called. I finally get out of the shower and put on a tank top and shorts. I walk into the kitchen and see candles and rose pedals every where. He walks out from behind the door and picks me up.

" I love you so freaking much, baby, " he kisses my neck. " What happened? " he asks as he sits me on the table. He's looking at my leg.

" I accidentally cut it, it's ok, " I mumble.

" Then whats this? " as he looks down to my white tank top, I realize I had carved more things onto my belly. I must've been caught up in the moment. " Hailey, please tell me what is wrong, " tears begin to stream down his face.

" Its nothing... Just all the hateful things Lily said. It got the best of me, " I sigh. He pulls out his phone and goes to Twitter. He starts to make a new tweet.

" I hate when someone hates on my loved ones... It's a shame. " Within seconds he's already getting replies.

" Who? "

" Is it the girl the paparazzi saw you with? "

" Hailey, I have an interview with the boys tomorrow, care to join? " he puts his hand on the counter right beside me.

" Of course I'll come. After all, you're the only one who knows me inside and out, " I lean forward and kiss him.

" Now let's eat this good food I attempted to cook. "

" Niall, it's all burnt. " I start to laugh.

" No it's not, it's just, " he pauses, " really burnt. Let's order pizza and watch a movie, " he suggests. After about thirty minutes of cuddling on the couch, the pizza arrives. He gets up to get it and pay for it. The deliverer is a girl. Apparently a fan because she asks for a picture. " Love, will you come take a picture for us? "

" Mhmm, " I say as I roll of the couch and go to the door.

" Is this you're girlfriend? " she asks.

" Yes, her names Hailey. Isn't she adorable? " he smiles at me and kisses my forehead.

" You're so beautiful. Niall better treat you right, " she smiles. I take the picture of him and her. " Can I have one of you and Hailey? " she asks.

" Uhm, sure, " I mumble. This was rather strange for me. Finally, the fan leaves and we go sit on the couch and start to watch " Disturbia. " He wraps his arms around me and pulls me close. " That was weird, " I finally say.

" What do you mean? "

" The fan asking for a picture. "

" Babe, you're adorable. Who wouldn't want a picture? Plus you're dating a famous person, you're gonna be famous, " he grabs a piece of pizza and starts to eat. That's when it all clicks. My life's different. I'm dating Niall Horan. I'm best friends with One Direction. I'm not the girl I was just a few months ago. I'm different. And I like it. I love my life right now. I love Niall. If only my parents could be in my life still. I sigh and wiggle around until I'm comfortable. The movie isn't over, but I close my eyes and fall asleep in my amazing boyfriends arms.
