Epilogue

"Niall, it's pouring outside!"

"Oh come on babe, don't be such a pussy."

"Oi! That wasn't very nice of you Wentworth."

"Come on, stop whining. You're the one who wanted to see the lake."

"Okay, fine. I'm coming."

I laugh as I hop outside his car, rushing to his side and letting him take a hold of my hand, dragging me towards the route which I'm familiar with already. It's pouring and we're already soaking wet and although I was whining earlier, I don't really mind anymore.

We're being careful when we climb up a small rock, a beautiful view finally opening in front of my eyes. I gasp, turning my head to look at Niall who is already looking at me, his eyes filled with emotion. I cup his cheek, leaning in to kiss him, his lips feeling cold against mine.

"It's beautiful," I say after we've pulled away and I'm watching the view again.

"Does it look better like this than via Skype?" He asks and wraps his arm around my hips.

"Ten times better. I can't believe I'm here."

"I can't believe you're here," he presses a kiss on my cheek.

I landed in Ireland a few hours earlier and Niall came to pick me up from the airport. Before going to his house, he wanted me to see the lake and even though it's raining, I said yes.

The lake is very important to both of us since this is the place where Niall asked me to be his boyfriend. It feels incredible to finally be here, to see this place with my own eyes.

"Should we go?" Niall asks and I nod, turning a bit and leaning in to kiss him.

"I missed you so much," Niall murmurs against my lips.

"I missed you too," I tell him and wrap my arms loosely around him.

"I love you," I then say and he starts smiling, leaning in to kiss me again.

"I love you too. Come on let's go," he loosens his hold on me and takes my hand, leading me back to his car. We are both soaking wet and I shiver a bit, feeling glad once we're inside the car and Niall puts the heater on.

I still can't believe I'm here with him and I'll spend the next nine days with him. Luckily Niall's dad gave him a few days off of work so he'll be able to be with me and I don't have to be alone while he is working.

"I can't believe you're here," Niall suddenly tells me and I turn my head to look at him.

"You'll believe it soon enough," I joke a bit and he laughs, reaching to take my hand in his.

"Babe, babe wake up. Babe." I groan when someone is poking my cheek and then I feel someone's lips pressing on my forehead, slowly realising it's Niall who is trying to wake me.

"What?" I sleepily murmur and blindly try to reach him, pulling him closer.

"The mail came," he is speaking and I let out a huh, hugging him tightly against my chest.

"University results, I have them here."

And suddenly I'm wide awake, opening my eyes and loosening my hold on him. He pulls away and sits on the bed, waving an envelope in front of my face.

"Open it," I breath out, my heart beating surprisingly loud in my chest.

It's my second last day in Ireland and yesterday, my mum called me and told me I got mail about the university results. I immediately told her to open the letter and after a short wait, I found out I got in to a school in Birmingham. It was my second choice and I'm genuinely happy about getting in there, especially because Birmingham isn't that far away from London where Nial might end up being next autumn.
