The studio day ends, but the flat holds a secret. Low lights, a guitar’s hum, candles dancing on the table. Balloons with doodles float near the ceiling. In the kitchen doorway, you stands, apron on, flour on cheek, beaming. “Surprise,” they whisper. A lopsided chocolate cake sits on the table, Niall’s name crooked in icing. It’s imperfect. It’s perfect. Niall freezes, the weight of the gesture hitting him hard. He steps closer, hands finding you’s waist, forehead resting against theirs. “You’re gonna make me cry,” he murmurs, voice thick with emotion.
