Liam's POV
Standing against the doorway of our room, I watch his sleeping face, the light from the hallway lighting up his features.
He's frowning in his sleep, occasionally moving around and letting out light whimpers. Creases on his forehead making him look older, more stressed out than he appears when he's awake. The normal flush on his pale face gone, leaving his face just that; pale. He's upset, stressed out.
And it's all my fault.
We've been fighting every night ever since the tour started, constant arguments taking place every night, yelling and screaming, accusations and tears. None of it is his fault, far from it.
It's my fault, the stress has been getting to me and I foolishly take it out on him. He tries to stay calm but ends up yelling too. We barely go out on dates anymore what with photo shoots, concerts, meet and greets, practices and all that stuff going on; we barely have time for ourselves much less for dates. Louis, Harry and Zayn aren't as affected as us because well, they deal with it better than us and they're not dating each other. But tonight was different.
We didn't fight. It was completely silent in our shared flat. Dead silent. Not even talking. Just us two and our thoughts.
And it's killing me, I can't help but think he's going to end things between us. I don't want that, sure we are going through rough times but we can deal with them. I don't want him giving up on us. The worst part is that, I think I'm falling out of love with him. I will fall for him again. My life without him means nothing. Absolutely nothing without him.

"The best thing bout tonight's that we're not fighting,
Could it be that we have been this way before,
I know you don't think that I'm trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core." I start to sing softly, not wanting to wake him up.
But he's always been a light sleeper, the smallest sound wakes him up. So it's no surprise when his eyes flutter open, revealing the vibrant blue orbs that I adore. He looks at me with a sad look, takes a deep breath and sits up.
Taking a step toward him, I continue singing, "This is not what I intended
I always swore to you that I'd never fall apart,
You always thought that I was stronger," Holding my hand out for him, I smile as his hand grasps mine.
He gives me a small smile and I bring his body to mine in a tight yet gentle embrace.
"Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you,
Over again,
Don't make me change my mind.
Or I won't live to see another day I swear it's true,
Because a boy like you is impossible to find, it's impossible.
So breathe in so deep Breath me in
I'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words
Cuz talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When you're asleep,
Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you,
Over again,
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day I swear it's true,
Because a boy like you is impossible to find."
I feel him shaking silently in my arms, I just hold him tighter scared that he'll leave. He pushes me back until he's facing me, tears running down his cheeks. The adorable blush back on his cheeks, lips trembling as he looks up at me.

"Niall, I'm sorry." I whisper.
"For what?" He asks quietly in the Irish accent that I love.
"For everything. I shouldn't have taken out my problems on you. It wasn't fair on my part, you didn't deserve any of that. The words that I said," I shake my head remembering clearly the words that I threw at him "those words, I didn't mean any of them. I was just stressed out and I didn't know what to do. I regret ever yelling at you over something that was not your fault. I promised to keep you happy and I broke it. I'm so sorry. I know that won't make up for all that I put you through. But I really am. I'm so-"
Feeling a warm pressure on my hand, I stop and look down. Two hands locked together, a perfect match.
"See that Li. My hand fits perfectly with yours. Like it's meant to be." My eyes stay on our hands as Niall speaks softly.
"Why me? There's seven billion people in the world and you chose a jerk." I spit out, disgusted with myself.
A gentle hand lifts my chin up, I lock eyes with Niall and he smiles lightly "There's seven billion people in the world, I could choose any of them. But none of them will ever make me feel the way you do. They don't cause butterflies to erupt in my stomach at their touch. They're not the reason I smile everyday. They don't create sparks whenever we kiss. They not the man I love...they're not you Liam."
A tear escapes my eye at the sincerity of his words. I know he'll stay with me no matter what. And I love him for that. He'll never leave me.
"I'll wait for you even if it takes years."
I look at him curiously "What do you mean Ni?"
He lets out a short laugh "I know you don't really love me anymore. You've fallen out of love with me. I understand."
I untangle my hand from his and cup his face as if he's made of glass "Maybe you won't have to wait years."
I press my lips to his, the familiar sparks going off at the touch. Guiding him back to the bed, I murmur against his soft lips "Hold your breath because Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you Over again."

Rising World
Vonn of Shieldpoint is an ambitious young inventor who, as far as his family knows, just survived a terrible accident. Really, he didn't. Instead a being known as the System has recruited the soul of a modern college student from our world, to fill in for him. Given a new life in a new body, the former human wants to make good use of it and fulfill the dreams of the one he's replacing. He's an Engineer in a world where that's a character class with explicit levels and stats. This world is just discovering the power of steam and clockwork and the occasional magic dungeon crystal, so Vonn is just in time to become a famous genius. He just needs to figure out what the gods actually want from him. (LitRPG Isekai with light but important stats, nonhuman MC. Cover art by Alexandra, https://www.deviantart.com/oktoberbeef .) This book is now available on Amazon! https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B09H5CQSX5 For legal reasons, I need to hide most of the content from Royal Road for now. The version for sale is revised and expanded anyway, including a rewritten opening. If the book does well, that's encouragement to write more of it soon! Reviews are welcome too. As noted in the afterward, it's been fun and useful to share this work with all of you here as I worked on it. Update 2022/2/22: Wow, it did do well! Thanks to all who read, commented, bought, and/or spread the word. Right now I'm working on a side-story about character Selen, and posting that starting yesterday. I do plan to do a true sequel this year, yet.
