One Direction Imagines

Naya - Niall Daddy Imagine

"How's he doing?" Your closest friend Niall Horan asks.

"Better than I would have expected actually," You reply with genuine surprise.

It has only been a few months since your boyfriend of five years left you for someone else. It was a tough time, you didn't know what to do and you worried about how you would cope very second of the day - especially since he left your three year old son without a father.

"Things are getting better," You continue to say as you stand in the doorway of the living room, both watching Noah play with his toys on the floor.

"I'm sorry I haven't been there for you these past few months." Niall says looking at the floor ashamed.

"Don't Niall. You have your own life, you can't keep helping pick up the broken pieces in my life, it's not fair."

"I know but..." He trails off as his gaze flickers back to Noah.

He's stopped playing with his toys and is sat staring up at you both. Smiling down at him he starts to stagger to his feet sticking his bum in the air and using his hands up push himself up. Tottering towards you he wraps his arms around your leg. You place your hand on his head in a protective sort of way. All the attention is now on little Noah.

"Hey buddy," Niall bends down to Noah's height, a huge grin on his face.

He's always been good with Noah but lately things have been a little hectic what with your break up and work so he hasn't seen much of him.

"Daddy," Noah says a little hesitantly after a few seconds of silence.

There's a moment of awkwardness where you don't know what to say, you look at Niall but his gaze stays focused on your son. After a second of possible thinking he seems fine with the new name he's been given as he says,

"Hey sport, want to go play some football?"

He extends his hand out for Noah to take hold of. Before you know it they've taken a small football outside and Niall is teaching him to kick a ball the correct way - using the side of your foot instead of your toes.

Sitting on the sofa you look at the clock on the wall which says its 5 o'clock. Noah has eaten his tea and should be in bed within half an hour. Playing football with Niall should tire him out a little more so you will have a peaceful few hours of catching up with your best friend.

You try watching some TV but your mild is elsewhere. Noah called him Daddy. That's what keep echoing through your mind. It's not like Noah doesn't know who his father is and he asks for him all the time - which breaks your heart every time he asks - but Niall? Noah hardly knows who Niall is. Maybe they have a connection? Who knows?

Your thoughts then turn to your ex. The same questions that have been running through your mind for months are back. Why did he leave me? Were me and Noah not good enough for him? Why does he love someone more than us?

You can't help it when the first tear falls from your eyes. Everything has been so difficult recently and you don't know what to do...

"Naya, what's the matter?" Niall's familiar Irish accent breaks through your thoughts.

He comes to sit by the side of you on the sofa and wraps his arms silently around your shoulders, bringing you closer to him. You both stay like that for a few minutes as your tears subside and you take a deep breath.

"You alright?" Niall asks, looking at you with concern etched all over his handsome face.

"Ye-" You pause rethinking your words. You can't lie to him. "Actually no I'm not. Niall, it's so hard. Everything has been so hard since he left. I can't do this anymore! Not on my own." You finally admit avoiding absolute eye contact with him.

"Babe, I can help you. You only ever need to ask and I'll be right here with you." Niall offers.

"You can't Niall. You have your own life; it wouldn't be fair of me to ask that of you."

"What if my life is here with you and Noah?" Niall asks catching your eye contact once again.

"What?" You ask caught totally off guard.

"Naya, what if I want my life to be with you and Noah? Would you still refuse my help?"

"I still don't understand Niall. Your life isn't here with us, it's out there, living your dream. Like you've always wanted," You point outside indicating the whole world.

"I don't want any of that if it means I can't help you," He emphasises the word you, tilting his head slightly towards where you're sat. "Naya, listen to me. I want to be here with you and Noah every day. I want to wake up beside you every morning and I want us all to be a family; you, me and Noah." Niall continues sounding one hundred percent serious.

You feel like crying again. Maybe this can finally be your happy ending? You, Niall and Noah a family, when you think about it, it does sound perfect but you're stubbornness won't let you agree to anything just yet.

"Niall..." You start but are cut off as Niall's lips smash against yours.

You try to pull away but Niall won't let you. He guides his hand not leaning on the sofa to the small of your back, pressing you firmly against him. You feel his head seep into you and you want more. Giving up on pulling away you deepen the kiss, linking your arms behind Niall's neck as you play with the small hairs where his hair ends.

Your lips are in sync when you start to taste something slightly salty. You both pull back when you realise they're your tears. Silently Niall rubs the tears trickling down your cheeks away with his thumbs as he cups your face.

"Please help me Niall," You whisper almost silently.

"Of course," He answers instantly giving you full eye contact. "Anything for you and Niall I will do without hesitation you know that Naya."

"Thank you Niall," Is the only thing you can say as your lips brush lightly against his.

In your heart you’ve always known about your feelings for Niall but you would never admit to them in safety of keeping your heart guided. After what happened in the past you’ve been scared to care for anyone but Noah but you feel that Niall won’t let you down. You feel he’ll always put you and Noah before anyone because he simply cares.

You know that the next few months will be hard to come to terms with everything that is going to change but you will both work through your struggles slowly and, you, Noah and Niall will be that happy family you’ve always dreamed about having. It might just be your happy ending.
