#61: Things he saves you from

Niall: Darkness. Because light is not always here. Because things are not always the way we want them to be. It was not supposed to be like that, anyway. It feels like he was sent just to make it better, to wrap both of his arms around your body and keep you as shelter as he can… to whisper that everything will be okay. And that’s why you love him. Because he’s the light. Your light which will guide you.

Zayn: Monsters. Monsters are not always the way we imagine them to be; big scary, with colorful fur and pointy teeth. The thing is, we can deal with those one, escaping, possibly earning a single scar or a burn. But what when the only monster is the one inside of your head? You can’t escape yourself. That’s why he’s there. When you want to run, he’s right there to catch you. He’ll fight against them for you, against anything and everything just to make his darling safe.

Louis: Yourself. It’s not always about the big things. Never was and never will be. It’s all about us, the way we feel and the way we act, things we were and things we’ll be. You can run away from the problems but what to do when the only one you have is the one inside you. It’s when you realize how much you need him. How pleasant the touch of his against your skin is. And you wish you never have to let him go, just to have him laying like that next to you. Forever.

Liam: Falling too fast and too deep. He knows that you’ve been hurt and he knows how much tears those beautiful eyes survived. You can feel it in the way he looks at you, holds your head gently tilted to the side as he speaks. “I have your heart now”, he whispers and suddenly you realize the metaphor behind his breath, making shivers run up and down your body. “I’ll keep it safe, I’ll keep you safe. Promise.”

Harry: Demons. It’s when you kiss him, when you feel his burning lips against your own, the warmth of his touch over your skin. You’ve never realized everything you’ve been through until now. And suddenly, it has never even mattered, that there’s just you and him accompanied with the rushed beat of your hearts. “It’s all going to be okay. Okay?” he asks ever breaking the contact of your eyes. “Okay.” And then you realize why you love him; not because the mention of his name could make your heart flutter but the way his voice could shush your demons.
