Chapter 49:

Jessica's pov:

"Okay Jessica, I'm gonna have to drive you home and set up all your medication and such. Are you ready to go?" Liz asks me as I step out of the bathroom in my sweat pants and a hoodie that the boys had brought me.

"Yup," I say quietly. She helps me into the wheel chair and pushes me into the elevator, then outside to a red volvo. 

"Nice car," I say as she helps me inside the back seat so I can lay down. She nods her head and gets in with a smile. 

"I just gotta let my boyfriend know that I'll be home for lunch and then we're off," she says. We soon pull out and get going down the highway. We pull into the driveway and Liz helps me out, slowly.

"Are you excited to finally be home?" she asks, excitement in her voice. I'm a little confused with her happy tone, but I push it aside, answering her question with a yes.

Niall's pov:

"Is the 'Welcome Home' sign hung up?" 

"Is the house cleaned?"

"Is Netflix ready?"

"Do I look nice?"

"Is she going to like the ring?"

I ask a numerous amount of questions, worry obvious in my voice. I am honestly super nervous about this.

"Mate, calm down, everything will be perfect," Liam tells meand my nerves calm down, but only a little bit.

"Okay," I say quietly, fidgeting with my hands.

"Hey, I know she loves you and I know she will want this. Have confidence in her answer and you'll be fine," Faith tells me. I nod my head and she walks off to Harry's side, allowing Harry to come talk to me.

"Listen, she's been talking about how she wants to be proposed to since the 7th grade. I think this beats all the ways she came up with," Harry says, smiling. I smile back.

I hear a door shut and suddenly all my nerves come back. The door opens and I can't help but feel sick to my stomach. What if she says no?

I watch as the boys practically tackle her in hugs, then walking away, filing themselves into 2 lines, making somewhat of an isle. I step out to the end of the "isle" and smile nervously. Jessica is so confused, and the look on her face is adorable. She slowly comes toward and when we're only a few inches apart, and prepare myself for this proposal.

"Niall what-"

"I am in love with you," I swallow hard, remembering the lines. "I am. I am in love with you, and I am not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things.

I am in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed , and that there will come a day when all our labor has been turned into dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only Earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you."

I watch as she covers her mouth, tears pouring down her cheeks. I slowly get on one knee and pull out the little box holding the delicate, beautiful ring.

"Jessica, will you marry me?" I ask, our eyes lock and she vigerously nods her head.

"Yes, yes, yes, a million time yes!" she yells in excitement. I stand up and place the ring on her finger, kissing her passionately, giving her all my love and affection. I hear a chorus of "awe" from the boys, Faith, and Liz. I feel Jessica smile into the kiss, but she's quick to kiss me back again. We slowly pull away, our eyes locking once more.

"Niall I love you with all my heart."

"I love you with all my soul Jessica."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We had said our good byes to Liz and we're now in the living room, trying to decide on a movie to watch.

"Niall?"

"Yes Jessica?"

"I need to tell my mom," she says quietly. I want to scream at her for even wanting her mother back into her life after all the shit she's done to her, but I understand where she's coming from.

"Um, Harry. Me and Jessica need to talk to you in the kitchen," I announce. Jessica looks at me confused but I push it away, helping her into the kitchen as Harry follows us.

"What is it?" Harry asks.

"I want to tell my mom," Jessica says, and I give Harry a look telling him to help her.

Harry's pov:

"I want to tell my mom," Jessica says. Niall gives me a look, but I push it away. 

"Jessica, she treats you like shit! Why the hell do-"

"I need to tell her I'm engaged and that she caused me to almost die!"

"She'll probably just hit you for running back to me!" I yell, Jessica's eyes filling with tears.

"You know nothing about my mother."

"I know that every night she would beat you senseless. I know that she hated me because I cared about you more than she could. I know that she abandoned you when you needed her most-"

"No Harry! You abandoned me when I needed you most!" she spits back, tears spilling down her cheeks. "So don't you dare tell me shit about my mom that I don't know because she was there a year while I had no clue where the hell you were!" 

"Jessica let's go to bed," Niall says, trying to make us stop.

"Niall, go into the living room," she says quietly. He refuses at first, but quickly goes back when I tell him to leave.

"Jessica, I don't think it's a good idea to go back there," I say, trying to reason with her why it's so bad.

"No Harry, it was a bad idea coming back here. To you," she says back quietly. She walks into the living room and I punch the wall, absolutely livid. I run into the living room, yelling a bunch of words that I shouldn't say. I regret the last sentence that came out of my mouth, causing Faith to take Jessica away.

"Leave this goddamn house and I never want to see your fucking face again!"

Jessica throws her ring off and walks her best outside, Faith helping her. I run to the kitchen window, and watch as they speed off.
