Cassidy's P.O.V~

After coming inside, I realized that the paint had now dried in my hair and I was no longer wet. I decided to just pull on one of Niall's old t-shirts and another pair of shorts before going to shower in a few minutes.

I came back downstairs and sat on the couch between Niall and Liam, diverting everyone's attention from their phones, "My birthday is actually in three days, not two."

"Wait," Zayn spoke up, "Niall, isn't your birthday in four days?"

Niall nodded as Eleanor exclaimed, "That's so exciting! We can throw you both a party at the same time!"

It was incredibly coincidental that my birthday so happened to be on September 12th, so by what they were saying, I assumed Niall's was on the 13th. 

Perrie grinned, "That sounds like so much fun! What if we rent out a building?"

"You know, you really don't have to go to that much troub-" I started, as Ana cut me off, "Cassidy, don't even start."

"Fine," I said, defeated, "We can throw a party."

I reached up and felt of the paint still dry in my hair, deciding that it may be best to go ahead and go wash it out before all the chemicals kill it or mess up my curls.

"I'm about to go take a shower," I announced before heading upstairs. I grabbed some clean clothes and stepped into the bathroom before stripping down. I was surprised, but relieved, to find both women's and men's shampoo and conditioner in the shower. Maybe all of us girls do come over often, I laughed.

When the water started running over my hair, it initially scared me when I saw the blue, red, and orange water pooling around my feet. I did my best to scrub all of the paint out and just took a second to let the hot water run over my skin.

I climbed out, wrapping the towel around me and looked at myself in the mirror. I managed to get a good majority of the paint out, reminding myself that the rest of it would go away with another shower later. 

I pulled the towel from me and looked at myself in the mirror, remembering all of the bruises  that uses to cover my hips and stomach. Even the scars on the inside of my thighs were very close to being invisible now. I couldn't help but think back to all the times I used to cut myself, upset over all the things Mark would do and say to me.

Ana had found out and convinced me to stop, not too long before the end of my relationship with him. I used to be so broken because of him, but I've grown so much since then.  I couldn't help but smile at the beautiful new skin in the place of the scars. Niall had helped me achieve that and I knew that I would never have to go back to that state of mind.

I pulled my hair down from the towel before pulling on my clothes. I twisted a curl around my finger as I walked out of the bathroom. I was headed downstairs, but then I heard Niall's voice coming from his bedroom, so I went in there instead.

I poked my head into his room, seeing him sitting at his laptop on his desk and his webcam turned on. When he heard the door creak open, he turned around and motioned for me to come sit beside him. I walked over and laid my head on his shoulder.

"What's this?" I asked him, looking at his screen.

"It's a twitcam, baby," he told me, pointing at the comments scrolling by on the screen, "I thought it was time for me to introduce the fans to you properly."

"Wait," I asked, choking, "This is live?"

"That's what those red letters at the top mean, babe." He chuckled lightly at me, pointing at the top of the screen.

I turned to the camera and smiled, desperate to make myself seem likable suddenly to the fans, "Hi, everyone. I'm Cassidy." I waved.

I tried to keep up with the comments that continued to pop up, catching a glimpse of some that were rude and some that were curious. One said 'Is that your girlfriend?", another said "EVERYONE, NIALL HAS CASSIDY ON HIS TWITCAM!", another one said, "Niall could do so much better."

I tried to ignore the rude ones, knowing that I would get jealous quickly and I didn't want the fans to see me that way. Niall nudged me, "Answer some of the questions, babe."

The first one that I saw pop up grabbed my attention, "Are you using Niall to get famous?"

I shook my head, "Oh no. I would never use Niall like that. I really do love Niall. He's my absolute favorite person." I smiled.

Another person asked if my hair was real, to which I replied yes while laughing.

The comments continued to explode with the more questions I answered, everyone desperate to get an answer to their question. They all said something similar now like "I'm such a die hard Ciall shipper." and "Ciall forever!"

I couldn't help but laugh. Ciall did have a good ring to it.

The next question caught me off guard, but I knew Niall had seen it too because I saw his eyes widen. It said, "Are you going to ask her to marry you?"

Niall covered my ears, quickly answering their question before I could successfully get his hands from my ears. I pouted, "What did you say?"

He blushed, "I didn't answer them, baby."

I frowned, "You're lying. You're a terrible liar."

He shook his head, still denying that he had answered the question. I turned back to the camera, "Hey, can someone type out and tell me what Niall said to that last question?"

The comment section flooded with, "Niall said we couldn't tell you!"

I hit his arm, continuing to pout as he did a thumbs up at the camera. I looked back at the comments. The next one said, "I don't believe Ciall is real. Let's see a kiss to prove it."

I looked over at Niall, "Okay, here's your proof."

It suddenly occurred to me he planned on kissing me, right here in front of the camera where millions of people were watching. I grew incredibly nervous, a first time I had gotten nervous to kiss Niall in a long time. His face turned to me and at the last second before his lips connected with mine, he pulled his snapback down and covered our face from the camera. He kissed me sweetly before pulling away smiling.

"I promise we're real guys," Niall smiled, "But just because I love her doesn't mean that I love you guys any less." He is so absolutely sweet.

"Well guys, it looks like my time is running out. Tell everyone goodbye, Cass." Niall nudged me.

"It was nice to talk to everyone! See you all later!" I waved. Niall clicked the X button at the top to exit out of the video.

Niall smiled, "I love you, babe." He leaned in, not giving me time to respond before kissing me. We kissed for a few minutes and I couldn't have been any happier. I really didn't want to stop, but when we finally did, we decided to go back downstairs and rejoin the others. 

"So, I got the building rented and tomorrow, we're going to go over tomorrow to start preparing the place!" Louis told me and my jaw dropped.

"Already?" I asked, "That was so fast."

"Never underestimate me." Louis told me, smiling proudly.
