The first time Niall thought he liked Josh was when he first saw him, given the fact that Josh was topless and emerging from the pool Niall thought he saw the most majestic creature to ever surface from the water.
“Uh, you’re drooling, love.” Niall thinks he heard him say from in front of him but he’s too dazed to confirm it till the gorgeous hunk is waving his hands back and forth in front of him.
“Wh- what?”
Chuckling at the new guy’s antics Josh told him, “You were drooling back there and I think you were not-so-discretely checking me out.” He grinned that cheeky grin of his.
Niall is now blushing getting caught staring and stupidly drooling over this cheeky bastard, he needs to save his skin so he said the first comeback that comes to mind “Don’t flatter yourself, I was just double checking if what emerged from the water was a guy or a seal.” Niall couldn’t be lamer at that moment and yet Josh laughed at his excuse.
The first time Niall thought he loved Josh was when they were both being lazy and just lounged and laughed with each other’s childhood stories.
Josh told him about how he ended up landing on poop from atop an apple tree of the neighbor by getting caught stealing apples and he had to ran home with his friends covered in poop.
He thought that Josh is the most amazing lad he had ever seen and funny too.
“Joshieee!”
“Niall, you’re drunk and I will not carry you to your bed bridal style because you’re heavy and not even my bride yet” Josh looked surprised by what he said at the last part.
“But Joshiee, I can’t walk straight and it will be on you if I end up at the bottom of the stairs twisted in all angles. Also, I can’t be your bride cause I’m a boy you silly goose.” Niall blabbered or more like slurred.
Finally giving in with a huff, “Fine.” Josh carried Niall bridal style to his room upstairs their shared two-storey apartment.
“You should lay off the burgers if you will make me carry you like that every time you get drunk.”
“You’re talking as if you don’t like carrying me like that when in fact you do.”
“You’re right, I actually do like carrying my wife upstairs.” “Oh please, we both know I’m the man here.”
“Keep telling yourself that, love.” Suddenly Niall’s lips are on Josh’s and it’s just light and warm and reassuring.
“I might just take you up on that wedding request of yours, Devine.” Was Niall’s reply after the kiss and then he fell asleep right after.
“I cannot believe you got me to say yes to your marriage proposal. I was drugged last night wasn’t I?” Niall told Josh after a night full of champagne with friends and apparently a surprise proposal from one Josh Devine.
“Drunk, you were drunk, as per usual. You loved it though, you were all glossy eyed and all that.”
“Maybe I just love you too much to say no and besides, who would say no to a proposal like that.”
“Or maybe, you just can’t live without me sexing you up.”
“Oh please, Devine, you and I both know I’m the better man in bed.”
“Keep telling yourself that love, when we’re married I will be be the best damn husband and take care of you for the rest of our lives.”
“Wow” Niall said as he was speechless by the sudden sappiness of his fiancé “You are such a sap I think I just fell all over again.”
“Who’s being sappy now? You’re just as sappy as I am, Horan.” “Maybe you just rubbed off on me.”
“Oh I will rub something on you alright.” Josh said complete with his signature devious smirk that only Niall is allowed to see.
“Congratulations on the wedding, mate!” Comes Liam’s greeting.
to the newly wed, he was Niall’s best man.
“Thanks brother. Now, when will yours and Zayn be?” Niall said which made Liam blush furiously because Zayn was by his side with his hands wrapped around said boy.
“I don’t know mate, your best man hasn’t made the best move yet” Zayn told Niall which made them laugh.
“Oh well, we’ll see you guys in a week after the honeymoon, enjoy the evening because I know I certainly would.” Niall said then smirked and wiggled his eyebrows which made Zayn laugh and Liam blush even deeper.
“See you mate, go easy on him!” Zayn whisper yelled at Niall’s retreating back.
“Bloody hell! That was the best damn sex we’ve ever had. Why did you only do that just now?” Niall said with uneven breathing after him and Josh’s first honeymoon sex.
“Why thank you Niall, I try.” Josh told him rather cheekily.
“Oh stop being so damn full of yourself and put that lips of yours to good use.” Niall told him already ready for round two.
Josh couldn’t be happier in his entire life than this moment with Niall Horan-Devine in his arms and permanently in his life.
End.
