Previously in chapter 45:

"Niall, I'm serious!" I laughed and rolled out of the bed.

I rushed out in the hall and towards the bathroom, and Niall sang louder and louder from my room before he came after me, still singing "Shake it off". I fumbled with the doorknob and just when I was about to open the door, he wrapped his arms around me and spun me around, singing.

Eventually he stopped and just looked at me with a goofy smile.

"You're such a dork." I told him.

"I know. I only act that way because I want to hear you laugh."

-----------------------------

Lately everything has, surprisingly, gone our way. I was back with the girls in school, and Niall were beginning to get more responsibilities at work, and getting more credit for his skills. He's been working on his song-writing a lot since he helped Shawn Mendes write his stuff, and I am beyond proud of him. The other day he came home with the biggest smile on his lips, picked me up while hugging me tightly as he told me he was going to record one of his own songs. I'm not allowed to hear it yet; he wants to bring me to the studio to show it.

I've been seeing my psychologist twice a month for a while now and I'm taking my meds every morning. If I happen to sleep in or simply forget them during breakfast, Niall brings me a glass of water and the pills. He's been helping me a lot, which I appreciate so much.

I wouldn't be able to live without him.

One day, early in February, I was sitting in the living room studying when Niall came back from the gym. I heard him drop his bag to the floor before he entered the room. I held up my finger to stop him from speaking.

"Let me just finish reading this page."

He stayed quiet. I finished the paragraph and put away the book. When I looked up, smiling, I saw him leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed.

"I want you to meet my dad."

My smile slowly faded out. I've never met his father before. Firstly because he lives in Ireland and secondly, Niall barely talks about him.

"O-okay." I said.

"I've already bought the plane tickets. We're leaving Friday next week."

"But that's Valentine's Day."

"I know. I'll pick you up after your last class of the day and drive us to the airport."

"But–"

"I know you want to plan stuff in advance, but this shit has been on my mind for the past couple of weeks. It's just something I have to do."

I got up from my seat on the couch and walked over to him.

"If you don't wanna come with, I understand." He said.

"No, no. I want to meet your dad." I smiled. "You just surprised me, that's all."

"I want you to be as much involved with my family as I am with yours. It would be a shame if your first meeting would be at our wedding."
