Love Begins With Hate (Niall Horan FanFiction)

Chapter Seventeen - What happens next?

Three years later..

*Veronicas POV*

I walked down the street of New York, today is the first day of my new job as a professional nanny. The sun is shining and the birds are singing. It's a wonderful day in the middle of May and I had the feeling that everything will for once turn out perfect, you know one of those days? With Billie Eilish in my ears I almost danced my way on the street quietly humming to the song.

"I've been watching you
For some time
Can't stop staring
At those oceans eyes
Burning cities
And napalm skies
Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
Your ocean eyes"

I quickly stopped just to observe all the people stressing around. That was one of the factors that made me doubt on moving to New York, but hey? Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. You only get this job offer once in your life, and I've always believed in living and trying out everything before I settle down. My phone beeped and I took it out of my pocket.

Hey girl, wanna go out tonight? xx

It was from Danielle. Yeah, that Danielle. Her and Liam's breakup even got us closer to each other. We've been best friends since that night in Mullingar, and I don't know what I would do without her. But do I really want to take the risk and go out a night when I'm working tomorrow? Hey, what the hell, I need to live, right?

You know me just right, see you at 8 xx

Just before I arrived at my final destination, I bought a coffee at Starbucks. When I finally arrived, I knocked on the door.

*Niall's POV*

"Adam!" I shouted and walked down the stairs in our new home on Manhattan. Slowly walking into the kitchen I met Adam in a little bit of... trouble you may call it.

"Dada dodo!" Adam mumbled and started painting on the kitchen cabinets. With a sigh I quickly picked him up and put him in his chair.

"What have I told you about this, you have to listen to me!" I said harshly and took a wet cloth, starting to wash the cabinets. It's not easy to be a lonely parent to a 3-year old, and working as much as I do.

"Dad, I thought that the kitchen thingy would look moje.. funny with some coloj on it!" Adam exclaimed and slapped his hand against the table.

I glanced at him and rolled my eyes. Soon I'll hopefully get som time to rest, I thought while I took out Adams breakfast and gave it to him. My phone started ringing and I grabbed it quick before Adam had the chance.

"Niall."

"Hi Niall, could you please stop by the studio before you get to the meeting?" My manager asked.

"Yeah, sure, I think I could make that happen. I'm going to try this nanny-thing out and I hope it will work out. You know, I don't leave Adam to anyone suspicious." I said, laughing quietly.

My manager gave me a laugh and confirmed it, before hanging on. I made Adam busy with his toys before I walked into the bathroom. Watching myself in the mirror, I sighed. My beard has grown out, and I really could need a haircut. Maybe I could have time for that tomorrow? Ever since Adam was born I've been pretty busy taking care of him, and kind of lost myself in that too.

I took my clothes of and took a 10-minute shower, finally feeling fresh again. While I was combing my hair, I heard a knock on the front door.

"Hey, Adam, I think your new friend is here!" I shouted, walking to the door with just a towel around my waist.
