About six months ago my parents bought me a penthouse in London. It is right next door to Niall's. Carder also bought a penthouse on the other side of mine, so Niall's penthouse is on the left and Carder's penthouse is on the right. Niall and I have only been on one date so far, the morning after our first date he left to go on tour. My parents had shipped all my furniture and the rest of my clothes to London about five months ago. So now I have everything from home. Niall is coming home tonight and he has to leave back on tour tomorrow night.  I go shopping for most of the day and when I get home I watch movies until I go into my room and go to sleep.

I wake up early, eat a breakfast bar, brush my teeth, fix my hair and slip on a t-shirt and Soffee's. Since Niall got home late last night, I grab the spare key I have to his house, and I go inside. I peek into his bedroom and see that he is still asleep. I make him breakfast and set the table for him. I decide to wake him up so his food won't get cold. I place my hand on his back and say his name softly. His eyes flutter open, already sparkling.

Niall smiles and says, "You are the most beautiful sight I have ever woken up to. I missed you so much babe!"

I laugh ruffle his hair and say "I cooked you some breakfast, you better get up and eat it before it gets too cold."

He jumps out of bed and gives me a hug, he is wearing a pair of basketball shorts and that's it.

He says "Thanks babe, I'm starving!"

I lay my head on his chest and say "Welcome home babe."

He smiles and we walk hand-in-hand into the kitchen. He sits down with a full plate in front of him. I sit in the chair next to him. He tells me that he has a very special night planned for us and that I need to dress up for it.

I say "Okay, enjoy your breakfast, I'm going to get ready then."

He kisses me on the hand and asks "Can I pick you up at six?"

I smile and he winks at me, "Sure." I say.

I go next door to my penthouse and decide that I'm going to wear my silver tight-fitted dress with the sleeves that go to my elbow and my red heels. I take a shower, slip on a over sized t-shirt,with some Soffee shorts, dry my hair, do my makeup, and fix my hair into the usual loose curls I style it into. By the time I finish all that it's five-thirty. I slip on my dress and slide my red heels on. I sit on the couch until the doorbell rings.

I open the door and Niall is standing there, looking stunning. He has on a tuxedo with a red tie, his hair is styled in its usual adorable way and he is smiling at me with his bright white smile that makes my heart melt.

He says "You look beautiful! Are you ready?"

I nod as I lace my arm through his. Niall takes me to a beautiful restaurant with an outside venue. The sun is just setting and the scenery is amazing.

Just as we are finishing up dinner, Niall takes my left hand and says, "Kendall, I never knew that love at first sight was real until I laid my eyes on you. These past six months with you, even though I was on the road, have been amazing."

I blush. Niall then gets a serious expression on his face.

He says, "I love you Kendall, and not only do I want to be with you, I need to be with you."

I touch his cheek with my free, right hand and say, "I love you too and I also need you. You are part of the reason I moved here, because you are my prince."

Niall smiles, slides a beautiful ring on my left hand and says, "This is a promise ring. It is a promise that someday you will be my wife. You are my princess and I want you to wear this until it is replaced by your engagement ring."

I look at him tears about to flood my eyes.

"I don't know what to say, I am honored, but you didn't have to do this all for me." I say, trying to get the shakiness out of my voice.

Niall lifts my chin and says "I didn't have to, but I wanted to, I love you and I want you to understand that."

It is the perfect night. The ring is beautiful, the night is beautiful, and Niall is beautiful, but my mind is telling me that I won't ever be good enough for him, that I am just an ordinary girl. He kisses my cheek, and I just burst into tears. I lay my head on his chest and cry. Niall carries me to the car. He's telling me that he is sorry for making me cry, but I keep reminding him they are happy tears. He laughs and says that he is happy too. When we make it to the penthouse, I'm still crying and Niall is choking back tears but, we are both still happy.

"I love you."He says, as he lifts my chin standing outside my front door.

Before I can say anything, Niall leans in, and kisses me.
