Epilogue,
The last year of high school sucked! I hardly spoke to anyone and placed a burden of distance between Dad and I. I must have dated four different boys before I ended my love life all together. If the right person comes around so be it, but I'm not going to waste my life by searching endlessly for him.
I had continuous jobs to earn pay and luckily, it got me to where I am today... The University of California! I worked every single day and I had enough money left to afford a room to myself on campus.
I snatched a map from a nearby mural and found my first class with extreme difficulty. There were so many people strolling around and I constantly got run into, but everybody was very polite about it.
I hurried to class and made it seven minutes early. There was still a few seats available so I tossed my book-bag onto the floor beside me and inhaled deep breaths as a sign of accomplishment.
"Hello, I'm Marie," a brunette beside me introduced herself, holding her hand out for me to shake.
"Kelsey," I warmly smiled. She had dark brown eyes and she was dressed appropriately for the class.
"My sister's name is Kelsey," she told me and I laughed a little at the random fact.
"That's-" Someone tapped on my shoulder and interrupted me.
"Excuse me, princess, but you are in my seat." Nobody has called me princess since... Him. I didn't look at him, I just faced forward and my breathing quickened. I don't want to turn around and see someone else standing there.
I'm an idiot for ever thinking that the boy behind me could have been Niall. I'll continue to hallucinate for the rest of my life about Niall being here, when we all know that that isn't the truth.
"Actually, there isn't reserved seating," I remarked and he laughed... He laughed that special laugh that he laughs when he laughs! IT IS HIM! IT'S NIALL!
I stiffened my back as I calmly turned around... HOLY SHIT! Niall's hair is barely blond anymore. The top part is blond, but the sides are brunette all the way around. His teeth are perfectly straight, and he has gotten more muscular than I can handle.
"Hi," he smiled... HIS TEETH ARE SO-
"Hey," I bit down on my lip to hide my shocked reaction to his lower and thicker irish accent.
"You look beautiful," he whispered before leaning forward and pressing a kiss to my cheek. "I have to hurry to class now, I'll meet you later."
"Niall, how did you know?" I asked and a half-smile spread.
"I remembered the night in the tent when you told me that this was your only future plan," Niall explained and stepped out into the hall.
"Do you know what I remember the most?" He pondered over my question for a moment before shaking his head.
"This," I whispered before placing a long kiss on his lips. It's everything that I've been dreaming about, but better. The kiss was more mature and free, exactly how I pictured it to be.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Niall broke away and I blushed.
"No, but I've been waiting for the right person to come around," I said and he smirked.
"He just arrived," Niall promised, grabbing me by the waist and pulling me to his lips again.
