You have me -N.Horan

☆ Maria's Pov ☆
I pour the last of my vodka into my wine glass, and down it.

"Damn, Im all out." I set my glass on the coffee table, and grab my jacket from beside the door.

I jump back when a blurry figure, barges into my apartment. I fling my hands around at the face, only to have my wrists taken ahold of and pushed back against the wall.

"Maria, are you drunk?" Niall. The sweet voice of my best friend, my vision starts to clear from pixels.

"Welllllll you seeee, Ashton is a dickhead. So yes, I'm very much drunk." I slurred bopping his nose with my index finger.

He grabbed my forearms and led me back over to my couch.

"What happened M?" He rubbed the side of my arm and I pushed him away.

"Im not lovable, I'm not special, there's no reason for him to love me. Im a nobody, and he made that very clear by dumping me. So if you excuse me, I need to be buying myself so more alcohol." I stood up, stumbling a bit. I took a step towards the door, but was pulled back to my seat next to Niall.

"Quit it, you are lovable, you're the most specialist person I've ever met, there are thousands of reasons for someone to love you Maria." He moved a strand of my hair from my face. I rolled my eyes, looking over at him.

"Nobody likes a liar." He chuckled, shaking his head.

"I'm no liar M, you're only 23."

"So what?" What does me being 23 have to do with anything?

"You're only 23, meaning Ashton isn't going to be the last guy in your life. You have years to find the one, he may already be in your life you just haven't realized it yet."

"You're 26 and haven't found the one. Whats the point of hoping for myself? No point at all" I saw a tiny amount in my wine glass, I didn't get into my mouth. I grabbed it and hung it above my mouth, letting it drip.

"That's enough Maria. I have found someone, the only problem is.. I don't know if I'm her someone. But listen to me, M there is a guy out there for you. He loves you, he cares about you, he notices you. There is someone to make you happy!" I rolled my eyes to the back of my skull, as he took the glass from me.

"Mhm, like who? Hmm? you? Yeah right. Oh my god Im Niall Horan, I have a crush on this girl shes so boring, stupid, and so unspecial." I lowered my voice mocking him.

"Maria.. You're not boring, stupid, or unspecial. Quit talking like that."

"Quit talking like that." I mocked now in a higher voice. He glared my way, and I let out a big giggle.

"So my feelings are funny now? The way I see you in my eyes is funny?"

"Of course it is. You're just trying to make me feel better, you don't actually mean them." He scoffed and grabbed my arm pulling me up and leading me towards my bedroom.

"I do mean them, get some sleep. You're beyond drunk." I crossed my arms over my chest and flicked him in his.

"You're not my mommy"

"Go to bed Maria, I would like to talk to my best friend. This is not her."

We stood there arguing about me being the real Maria, and he said no that his Maria would never make fun of his feelings, she would care and talk it out with him. We had made our way back to the couch.

"Why didn't you call me?"

"Because nobody cares Niall. And neither do you so just go home, leave me alone" My eyes felt heavy and I fell back onto the couch passing out.

The next morning I had to drag myself out of my bed to make myself a pot of coffee. I slightly jump when I see a figure move on the couch. Wait.. I fell asleep on the couch. Who moved me?

"Coffees already going" Niall grumbled with his morning voice.

"Oh thanks." I went and sat down next to him, an awkward silence lacing the air.

"Why are you still here? I treated you like dirt, made fun of your feelings. I figured you'd be 20 states away by now." He sat up grabbing my hands from my lap.

"How long is it going to take for you to realize I truly do care for you? For you to realize that I would do anything for you, no matter how much you push me away, curse at me with the worst words in the book. I will always come back to you, because I love you."

I grabbed ahold of his cheeks and pulled his body to mine. Our lips locked together, in a soft kiss.

"Thank you, and Im sorry for the way I treated you. Im an idiot, never let me drink again." He chuckled, his grip on the small of my back tightening.

"I forgive you, Always M."

"So does this mean that you'll be my girlfriend?" I furrowed my eyebrows and moved out of his arms.

"I don't know.. Let me think about it alright?" Sadness rushed upon his face and he slowly nodded.

I went back to my bedroom and got one of his hoodies from my closet. I walked back out with a smile wandering on my face.

"Hey Ni, do you like my hoodie?" I took the fabric in my hands.

"Yeah, course." He gave me a small smile.

"Good, cause its my boyfriend's." His head shot up and he picked me up twirling me around.

"I love you." He mumbled into my hair.

"I love you, Niall James"
