I instantly knew who that hair belonged too. In that fraction of second it felt like all the worries and anxieties in my life were gone. It may have been a short time of us being a thing officially, but it seemed like we have been together for a long time. I felt I not only knew him as the person he was but also spiritually. He may have maintained his distance from me before, but it all made sense now, he did it out of love. For my safety, for my betterment. The love was always there. He was always there. An 'us' was always there. In this short period of time so many consequences have already been faced and probably more to come. But as they say everything comes with a price. And 'love' comes with a very, very heavy price. The world will always try to tear you apart, but it's up to you how strongly you apply the glue, the bond, the love.

  Niall was supporting himself on the black, heavy SUV. Looking at his best even though he was probably worried sick. He was wearing a black jacket, a lavender sweater underneath, and his black pants. His hair was a bit dishevelled, the brown roots now a bit more prominent, slight bags were formed under his eyes, he looked badly knackered. It seemed like he hadn't slept or eaten well for the couple of days. His features softened at the sight of me. As if he was breathing again. I ran up to him, knocking him a bit backwards but he kept his support on the car. He tightly held me into his embrace. He snuggled into the crook of my neck, as if taking in every bit of me, as if I'd disappear into thin air. "Oh baby, I was so scared" he mumbled into my neck.

"Niall, I missed you" I sobbed. The tears spilt out.

"It's alright. It's all good. You're safe now" he kissed my forehead, pulling my chin a bit up. He examined my face, taking in my features "You're so beautiful. I love you" he whispered, his eyes glistened a bit.

"Sir, we must hit the road" a guy from the side spoke. There were a group of men, as usual dressed in black except that they were dressed in suits and looked more uptight.

"Don't worry, they are on my team" Niall, gave me a slight smile. We quickly got into the car. Niall had gotten into the driver's seat and I sat on the passenger's. We were the first to pull out, the other cars followed. Niall drove off road in full speed, taking a peculiar route. All dirt and dust, dry and empty. He positioned his bluetooth into his ear and spoke, "Andrea, thank you. Good job. You know what you have to do. Take charge."

"So we go home now?" I ask.

"We're going to America." He told me, searching for my eyes. He probably knew that I was originally from America and I felt to have a new start, a new life and there I was going again. But only this time, under different circumstances and with Niall. I nodded plainly, we had no other option.

"You'll be alright" he speaks, "this time I'm not leaving you."

"They asked me about some special delivery and your ordnance factory" I told him. His jaws flexed almost immediately. "I don't know anything and he cut me everywhere, almost" I added, his eyes looked concerned.

"Are you better now?" He asked.

"I'm alright. Andrea took care of it. She's very faithful" I told him.

"Indeed."

The car was suddenly brought to a halt. The roads were now metalled and smooth. An aeroplane stood in the distance proudly. Should have known. Private jet. These filthy rich people. "We could die, if you're flying it" I say with a straight face.

"Good thing I won't but if such circumstances are underhand I could still fly it smoothly, I'm trained darling" he walked out of his seat and opened the door for me, taking my hand as we walked towards the plane. The cut in my thigh was pretty deep, it was probably bleeding because the pain was rising every second, I was limping but Niall gave me enough support to walk up to the plane. Four guys stood in the doorway in their usual demeanour. "Sir, the coast is clear. You can take off to America safely. Things in the East and London will be taken care of" one spoke.

"Good" Niall maintained his shady act in front of his workers.

"Have a safe trip" another spoke. Niall didn't reply but walked straight in, pulling me along.

"Thank you" I smiled to the man. The doors were soon shut behind. We took our seats. Seat belts on. I kept myself as close I could to Niall. "Everything's alright. I'll keep you safe" he spoke and after a very long time I felt his lips on mine. The only heaven that possibly existed on this hell of a place called earth dominated by a even more fearful species called humans. Man are their own enemies but love could destroy the worst and the most fearful.
