Louis: It’s been a year. A year since the crash that took her away. Louis had been cautious around you, not knowing what to say. It was irritating but you knew if was because he didn’t understand what you went through, what you were going through. Your dad had left when your mom when you were a baby and never attempted to stay in touch. Your mom had taught you everything, how to walk, ride a bike, drive a car. She got you though your first heartbreak. You felt a wave of sadness as you realized she would never get to meet Louis. Someone who made you smile when you never thought you would smile ever again. That single reason was what made you decision. 

"I want you to come with me." He stopped scrolling through his twitter feed and looked up at you, shock clearly on his face.

"Are you sure?" You nodded and went to go get ready for the drive.

When you got to the cemetery you got out of the car. You didn’t know you were shaking until Louis grabbed wrapped his arms you.

"Don’t rush yourself, love." You were happy you brought him along, his presence making you feel comfortable. You pulled out of his arms and grabbed him hand. Pulling him along you walked towards your mother’s grave.

Niall: You got out of the car, alone. The sadness of the day was only added to by the fact that Niall couldn’t be here. You had known he was going to be on tour on this day and you didn’t tell him but you still wanted him here. You stood there leaning against your car door, thinking. You decided to call him. You waited until you heard the wonderful irish accent that you’ve started to fall in love with.

"Hey, Niall."

"Y/N! I was just about to call ya. What are you doing right now?" You bit your lip wanting to tell him about your mom’s grave but not admitting that you’re still unsure of him. It was a inner battle that has yet to be resolved.

"I’m actually," You stopped and took a breath, “at my…..my mom’s grave. Andiwantedyoutobeherebutidon’tknowhowtotellyouthatandnowyou’reontheothersideoftheworldandidon’twanttobealonerightnowbutinevertoldyoubutnowiregretthatandimissyou."

"Princess, i know. You’re brother called me a few days ago. I can’t say I completely understand how you feel but i want you to look to your left." You looked to your left to see Niall facing you on his phone. You slipped your phone into you pocket and ran to him. You threw your arms around him. You didn’t know you were sobbing until you heard him say, “I’m here, y/n. I’m here." You cried into his shoulder then pulled back.

"Come on, I want you to meet her." 

"Lead the way, y/n." You both started walking a slight breeze that always seemed to flow through cemeteries lightly fluttered through your hair. You came to the grave and knelt down pulling the teddy bear she gave you out of your ba placing it on the headstone. You grabbed Niall’s hand from where he was kneeling next to you.

"Mom, this is Niall. My boyfriend. He’s amazing and everything you could want for me. He’s always there for me even when it’s through a computer screen. You would love him. He’s in that band that we used to obsess over. The blonde one. The one without the tattoos. Everytime i start to cry over you, he’s there hugging me, telling me he’s there. I think that’s why I love him." You smiled through the tears, feeling an exceptionally warm breeze caress your face. You felt Niall squeeze your hand. He gave you a look as if asking permission. You nodded, squeezing his hand back. He cleared his throat and squeezed your hand again.

"Hi, Mrs. y/m’s/l/n. I’m Niall, as y/n said." He paused and looked at you. You nodded and he continued. “I know i never got the chance to meet you and if you’re anything like y/n, then i know you must have been an amazing woman. You raised a beautiful, kind, smart and wonderful woman, who I am extremely lucky to know, let alone be with. I…i love her. She’s the most amazing girlfriend I’ve ever had and i want you to know that I’ll always take care of her." Tears were streaming down your face at the love you felt from and for this man. Niall got up and held his hand out to you. You grasped his hand and turned back to your mother’s headstone.
