I Can't Love you More Than This- A Niall Horan love story

Chapter 58- craving you

For Halloween we went to the parties and took Liam and Ariel trick or treating with everyone. For thanksgiving we had dinner at our house. Now it's getting close to Christmas. Niall and I have both been so busy, rehearsing, concerts, traveling, getting ready for christmas, my management meetings and taking care of the twins, we haven't had any time for just us. Tonight is different. Its Nialls night off since he and the boys did Morning rehearsals and Maura is watching the babies. Niall sat on the couch after eating dinner, I finished the dishes and walked into the living room. I sat next to Niall and rested my head on his shoulder, lightly kissing his neck. I glanced up at him to see his eyes frozen on the tv. I wrapped my legs around him, straddling him and kissed him. "Jordan" Niall said "What?" I replied innocently, kissing his jawline. "I love you but I'm really tired, I was up early" Niall said putting a hand in my arm. I nodded and stood up, changing my seat to the chair by the window. I curled up and watched the tv. I sighed and snuck upstairs and into Niall and mine room where I stripped down and got into the huge bathtub. I tied my hair into a messy bun and closed my eyes to relax. I heard a light thump and slowly opened my eyes. Niall was sitting next to the bathtub with his chin in his hands. "hi princess" he said running a thumb over my cheek. "Hi" "I'm sorry I'm just so tired" "It's fine just... Just" I said before shaking my head. "What is it princess?" "Do you know the last time we had sex was a month ago?" Niall shook his head "Wow, uh, it's been that long? I'm sorry we've just been so busy" Niall kissing my cheek. "I brought strawberries" he spoke up. I felt him run one over my mouths before I ate it. I looked at him just as his palms hit the cold tile floor to push himself off the ground. He stood up and took the plate of strawberries with him. I closed my eyes again and started humming to myself. I felt Nialls hands move me forward and he sat behind me in the bath. I laid my head on his chest as he played with my hands "You know I love you right?" I nodded "I love you too" he kissed the top of my head "I wish I wasn't so tired" Niall mumbled into my shoulder. I cracked a smile "If you tired lets go to bed. Atleast we'll be spending time together" "I'm not ready for bed but my body is just tired" I nodded "Wanna watch a movie then?" "That sounds good" I stood up and used a towel to dry myself off. I dropped the towel and pulled on fuzzy pajama bottoms and a shirt. Niall got out of the bathtub and changed into a pair of sweatpants. We walked downstairs, hand in hand and I picked out a movie. Breaking Dawn 2. Niall laughed as I popped the disc in. I curled up in the chair and looked at the tv. Niall cleared his throat a few times and I turned to look at him, he lay on the couch with his arms wide open "You can still sit with me" I stood up and ran over to the couch where I crawled into Nialls arms and pressed my back to his chest. Niall rested his head ontop of mine and he peppered my face with kisses. I giggled and threw my arm behind me, slapping Nialls butt. "You had to go there" he said gripping my waist and flipping me over to face him, he started tickling my sides before I grabbed his hands "You know what that does to me" I warned. Niall laughed and I turned back around. "They are such a cute couple" I said smiling at the tv. "Not as cute as we are" Niall said nuzzling my neck. I giggled and turned my attention back to the screen. After the movie was over, Niall and I raced eachother upstairs and I crawled under the covers. "Goodnight princess" Niall said kissing me softly before laying down. Our legs tangled with eachothers before we fell asleep.

The next morning I woke up next to a sleeping Niall. He looked so peaceful. I quietly got out of bed and crept downstairs. I made a cup of hot chocolate and took it out on the porch.I looked across our backyard at the trees and took a sip, the warmth radiating onto my hands. I closed my eyes and smiled to myself. I felt a strong pair of arms snake around my waist and a familiar scent filled my nose. "Good morning Niall" I said as Niall kissed my cheek. "Arent you cold?" he asked. I nodded "Yeah. Lets go inside, plus theres paps over there" Niall said glancing in the direction there was someone standing on our street. I laughing and Niall followed me inside. He grabbed his guitar and began strumming and singing 'hero' I smiled and stared up at him while he sang. "Your amazing" I said. Niall laughed and kissed my head "So are you". I went upstairs and got dressed in a black shirt and tights with a gray skirt. "Do you want to finish decorating today?" I asked Niall. "Sure,Ill get the boxes from the shed" Niall said before going out the back door. He cames in with the boxes after a few trips and we started decorating. Niall put up the tree and we decorated it with lights and ornaments. I sat on the ground tangled in lights trying to get them ready to hang around the house. I heard a snap and looked up to see Niall taking a picture with his Iphone. I stuck my tongue out at him and he smiled "I wouldnt be mean if you want to get out of those lights" "I can do it" I argued trying to pry the lights off. I flopped on the floor "I need help" Niall laughed and carefully untangled the lights. We hung them all over the walls and decorated the outside with cute decorations and lights. "It looks perfect" I said kissing Niall lightly on the lips. Our house looked like Christmas threw up on it. "Wait! We need to hang our stockings!" I said grabbing them. Niall and I hung the four stockings with all our names on them. "Im so excited for christmas!" I said smiling huge. Niall laughed and took my hand "We need to go to the studio and get Liam and Ariel" "Wait! I need to let Channing out" I said putting our white dog on her leash and rushing her outside to do her business. "Ok now we can leave" I said to Niall. We got in the car and drove to Mauras apartment to get the twins. "Have a good time at the studio " I said kissing Niall goodbye. He smiled into the kiss "I love you" "I love you more" I said which started a arguement on who loved eachother more. "Your gonna be late" I said giggling. Nialls eyes widened and he said bye once more before leaving. "Who wants to go shopping?" I said making a face at Liam and Ariel. I drove to the mall and rushed out of the cold with the twins in their stroller. I went to the Apple store and picked out a laptop for Niall along with some headphones. I waited in the long line to buy it then went to another store to get a song journal for Niall. I got the rest of the presents I needed for everyone else then took the twins home

"You guys are so cute" I said sitting on the carpeted floor with Liam and Ariel. I tickled Liam's tummy and he giggled. He reminded of Niall in his baby pictures- the brown hair and bright blue eyes. "muuummmm" Ariel said. I laughed "Are you guys hungry?" I went to the kitchen and quickly heated up two jars of the baby food. I put the twins in their little baby chairs and started to feed them. Ariel had Niall and my appetite, she was always hungry. They finished their food and crawled around the kitchen while I cleaned up. I took them up to the nursery and changed their diapers and put them down for a nap. Just as I went downstairs my cell phone rang. "Hello" "Hey princess" I heard Niall say on the other line. "Hey babe" "I'm gonna be a few hours longer than I thought so I won't be him for dinner tonight" "oh ok" "I'm sorry Jordan" Niall said. "Its ok" I replied. "I have to go record. I love you" "I love you too nialler" I said before the line went dead. I made a quick salad for lunch and laid on the couch. I fell asleep with the baby monitor in my hand.

A while later I woke up and trudged upstairs to check on the twin who were still napping peacefully. It was already 4 so I woke them up and took them downstairs. Ariel immediately crawled over to Channing and threw her chubby arms around Channy and started babbling. Liam sat by my feet until I took his hands and helped him slowly walk over to Ariel. He plopped down to his butt and grabbed one of the stray toys and started playing with it. I put on a disney show for them to watch and leaned back against the couch. I wiggled Ariels ponytail and she looked up at me with her blue eyes, smiling a big pink smile up at me. She crawled over to me and played with my hand. I grabbed a spare nailpolish from my purse "Stay still Ariel" I said as I painted her nails light pink and blew on them to dry. "See your just like mommy" I said kissing her nose. I got out my iPod and played 'kiss you' "It's daddy's song" I said picking up Liam. I took turns dancing with him and Ariel. I later fed them dinner and put them to bed "I love you" I said kissing their heads and putting their blankets over them. I went downstairs and painted my nails, danced around the living room, watched tv and ate snacks. Channing whined at the back door so I walked out to our cold yard and let her out. I blew on my hands to warm them up as I led her back inside. I sighed as I looked at the time. 10:14 and still no Niall. I laid on the couch and flippe through the channels. At some point I fell asleep on the couch and Niall slammed the door. I woke up as he walked into the living room "Did you wait up for me?" I nodded "Awe thanks babe but you didn't have to" Niall said kissing my head. "Your tired, let's get you to bed" Niall said scooping me up and carrying me up to our bedroom where I immediately fell asleep.  

Ariel started crying in the middle of the night. "I got it" Niall whispered. I felt the bed shift as he got up and left the room. I could hear soft talking so I got up and crept through the hallway and stood in the doorway of the nursery. Niall stood with his back facing me, singing little things softly to Ariel. I stood next to Niall and wrapped my arms around his torso. He smiled down at me with tired eyes before putting a now sleeping Ariel in her crib. We both went back to bed, my body clinging to nialls. I was wearing pajama boxer shorts, my bare legs intertwined with Nialls. "I love you"I whispered into his chest. "I love you too" he whispered back.

The next morning Niall woke me up by kissing my neck, my eyes fluttered open and I rolled over to face Niall. He smiled sleepily as I rolled on top of him and kissed him lightly. Niall grabbed my waist as I started grinding on him. Just as he was about to give in, Liam started crying. I groaned and rolled off of Niall and trudged to the nursery.
