My Immortal (A Niall Horan/One Direction Story) {Book 1}

Chapter Eighteen

Chapter Eighteen:

Niall POV

Months have gone by without Lilly in my life. Even the connection we had when I could feel her near was no longer there. I couldn’t feel anything from her. We were currently home on break and I was spending it mostly in my room. All of Lilly’s stuff was gone from her room down the hall. It was like she was never here. I walked into her room and saw something she left behind. It was a pair of pants she forgot to take with her. I picked them up and went back into my room, quickly grabbing my guitar and began strumming a new song.

“Your hand fits in mine

Like it’s made just for me

But bear this in mind

It was meant to be

With the freckles on your cheeks

And it all makes sense to me

I know you never loved

The crinkles by your eyes

When you smile,

You’ve never loved

Your stomach or your thighs

The dimples in your back

At the bottom of your spine

But I’ll love them endlessly

I won’t let these little things

Slip out of my mouth

But if I do

It’s you

Oh it’s you

They add up to

I’m in love with you

And all these little things.”

“You can’t go to bed

Without a cup of tea

And maybe that’s the reason

That you talk in your sleep

And all those conversations

Are the secrets that I keep

Though it makes no sense to me

I know you never loved the sound of your voice on tape

You never want to know how much you weigh

You still have to squeeze

Into your jeans

But you’re perfect to me.”

I leaned my back against his door, my eyes getting watery. I could feel everything that he was feeling through that song. I heard footsteps come up and soon Louis came around the corner.

“Whoa, what’s wrong mate?” I put my index finger on my lips and nodded toward Niall’s door.

“I’ve just let these little things
