Niall was silent the whole time we walked to our room. He seemed to be in deep thought.

"I'll pay for college for you." He simply stated once we were inside our room.

"Niall, no, you can't." I sighed.

"I have to." He said, sounding desperate. "I can't break up with you."

"I don't wanna break up with you either." I threw myself into his arms. He held me tight and nodded, gulping.

"Then don't." He whispered.

"Niall, I need this money, I have to go to college so I'll have a life." I said.

"Then let me pay, I'll pay for you going through college, I will, let me please."

"No Niall, I have to do this on my own, this is my future and I don't want to have to be financially supported by you." I sighed.

"Please Jenny, I love you." He said, stepping back and I could see the tears forming in his eyes.

"I love you too." I stroked his cheek.

"If you loved me you'd let me pay for you." He whispered.

"I love you and that's why I am not gonna let you." I replied.

"Please Jenny, I can't break up with you." Niall said. "Not after it took me so long to finally fucking do it and ask you to be my girlfriend. I'm not throwing it all away before we even have a chance to be properly happy." He yelled.

"Shush, calm down." I hugged him again. "I don't wanna break up either."

"Then let me fucking pay, come on Jenny." He whined.

"Niall, no, I have to do this on my own." I stated.

"Jenny, I have enough money to put the whole of England through college, come on, please, let me do this for you, then we can still be together."

"Niall, I can't." I shook my head.

"You can." He fired back.

"Niall, seriously, I can't. I took this job so I could finally fend for myself and show my mom that I am capable of doing things on my own. I wanted to show my mom that I can finally make her proud, sometihing that's unprecedented so far."

"You've already made her proud Jenny, please." He begged but I shook my head. "Then we won't tell your mom I am paying, you can pretend you're paying yourself." He offered.

"Niall, I was gonna do more with this money than just go to college, I need a new phone and-"

"I could have you a new phone in ten minutes." He stated.

"Niall." I warned. "I just wanna be able to do things on my own, like I was gonna get my own apartment or something so I wouldn't have to live with mom." I sighed.

"I'll pay your rent." He said.

"Niall, please, don't do this." I sighed.

"No, don't do this to me." He yelled. "Don't make us have to break up, don't do this to me, don't do this to yourself." He exclaimed and I saw a tear trickle down his cheek, but he quickly wiped it away.

"Blame Michael, not me." I simply said. Niall shook his head and turned around. He bent down on his hunches and put his face in his hands. "Niall, I don't want to break up with you either, I love you, but I need this money." I explained.

"Let me fucking pay! That's what boyfriends are meant to do anyways, aren't they meant to support each other?!" Niall asked, turning to face me again.
