I’ve Loved You For a Thousand Years, and I’ll Love You For a Thousand More.
2013
The couple exited down the steps of the church, arm in arm, the sun shining down on them. A large gathering of their friends and family stood on either side of the pathway which led down to the car, two long rows of men in suits and women in dresses of all different lengths and colours.
The newlyweds waved to everyone as the chauffeur opened the door and they sat onto the soft leather seats, their fingers entwined the whole time.
With one last wave to their friends and family, they turned to face eachother, smiles plastered across both of their faces.
‘I love you, Zayn’ whispered the oldest boy, leaning as far as his seatbelt would allow to be as close as possible to his new husband.
‘I love you too Louis’ answered the dark haired boy, his eyes sparkling in the sunlight that shone through his window.
Louis and Zayn Tomlinson.
2014
‘Psst, Lou, wake up!’ Zayn whispered, shaking Louis’ shoulder vigorously in an attempt to wake him up.
‘Mmff, what do you want?’ Louis’ muffled voice came from underneath the blanket.
‘Happy anniversary!’ Zayn said, kissing Louis’ bare shoulder which was exposed between the edge of the duvet and the pillow.
Louis rolled over on the mattress to face his husband, an adoring, loving look in his eyes.
‘Happy anniversary gorgeous’ he leaned up and kissed Zayn’s lips gently, butterflies going crazy in his stomach like they did everytime he even laid eyes on Zayn.
‘Lou..’
‘Zayn?’
‘I’ll never stop loving you. You know that, right?’
‘I’ll love you for a thousand years’ Louis squeezed Zayn’s hand before falling asleep on Zayn’s bare chest, the beat of his heart on his cheek.
2015
The first year the couple weren’t together on their anniversary.
Louis had gone home to his family in Doncaster after a family emergency, so Zayn was left on his own in the Tomlinson household.
He climbed into bed and pulled Louis’ nightshirt off his pillow and held it up to his face, breathing in Louis’ scent. His phone vibrated on his bedside table and he reached across and picked it up, his heart racing when he saw Louis’ picture flashing on the screen. He opened up the message and a smile grew on his lips.
‘Happy Anniversary gorgeous! Sorry I can’t be there, will make it up 2 you when I’m home from Donny tomorrow. Can’t wait 2 see your gorgeous face again. Hope you’ve got me a coolio prezzie;) Love you millions. Lou xxx’
Even though Louis wasn’t with him, Zayn still felt like he was lying right there next to him. He couldn’t wait to see him again tomorrow, to hold him in his arms, to kiss his soft lips and to feel his touch. He couldn’t wait.
{10 Years Later} 2025
‘Louis, how many more anniversaries will you leave me?! Why do you have to ruin it for me again?! You know how much it killed me last year!’ Zayn screamed, collapsing backwards onto the sofa in tears.
‘Zayn I’m sorry!’ Louis pleaded Zayn’s forgiveness. He knew just as much as Zayn did that being separated for yet another anniversary would kill him inside.
‘Sorry’s never good enough anymore though is it Louis? We both say it yet we still carry on fighting! What happened to what we were like all those years ago? Why did it all suddenly have to change?!’
‘I don’t know, Zayn. I don’t know. But it’s our fault. We let this happen. All we do is argue! Please, let me go back to Doncaster, sort things out, then I’ll come straight back and we’ll sort it out, okay? I promise!’
Zayn held his head in his hands, refusing to look at Louis. He pointed to the door, where Louis’ weekend bag was already waiting, packed and ready to go.
‘Go’ he said coldly, standing up and staring Louis piercingly in the eye.
‘Go on, go! If that means more to you than me, I understand. Go on, go back to the ones that mean the most!’ Zayn ordered, a harsh tone in his voice.
Louis’ bottom lip quivered as he fought back more tears, his eyes full of sadness and guilt, but even so he turned towards the front door and stood there, his bag over his shoulder, staring back at where Zayn was standing at the bottom of the hallway.
‘Zayn, I-’ he started, reaching out his hand, in the hope Zayn would take it.
‘Get out!’ Zayn yelled, storming upstairs. Louis heard him break down once he got to the bedroom. He pulled open the front door and hurried out to his car, slamming it behind him.
Zayn’s phone vibrated a few seconds later. He picked it up and read the message.
‘I just wanted to say I love you. Louis.’
2026
‘And let’s just take a minute to remember boyband sensation, Louis Tomlinson, who unfortunately died in a car accident on the way back from Doncaster a year ago to this day. Rest In Peace Louis’
Zayn flicked off his car radio, leaning his head on the steering wheel and breaking down into a fit of tears.
He pulled his phone out from his pocket and went into his inbox, dating all the way back to 2013 when he first got the text that meant everything to him.
Zayn, I’m not going to be home until tomorrow because of traffic, but I can’t wait until then so, I was wondering if you’d do me the honour of marrying me?x
He remembered the moment Louis got home so vividly, like it was only yesterday.
Louis stood in the doorway, dropping all of his bags when Zayn opened the door with open arms, a huge smile on his face.
‘Yes! Yes, yes, yes!’ Zayn cried, watching as Louis’ jaw shaped into a gigantic toothy grin, throwing himself into Zayn’s arms.
‘I love you so much!’ Zayn whispered into Louis’ ear.
‘I’ll love you for a thousand years’.
Zayn looked up into the sky.
‘I know you’re up there somewhere gorgeous. I can’t keep you waiting any longer. I’m coming, Lou. Hold on..’ he whispered as he pulled his cigarette lighter out of his pocket, clutching his wedding ring tightly in his left hand.
He flicked the lighter until a flame appeared, tears brimming in his eyes. He dropped the lighter onto the passenger seat where Louis had always sat. He watched as the flame quickly spread across the seat and onto the floor in the front and back of the car, smoke quickly filling up the small vehicle.
Zayn began to choke, just about managing to slide his wedding ring onto his finger.
‘I’m coming Louis, I’m coming..I’m coming’ he rasped, his eyes drooping. Blackness took over.
-*-
Zayn ran down the dark tunnel to the circle of light he saw in the distance. It got closer with every step he took, reaching out with his right hand to get closer. His wedding ring glistened in the bright, white light.
He saw a silhouette at the entrance to the ball of light, a broad figure of someone he knew all too well.
‘Louis!’ he cried, his speed increasing as he raced to get to his husband.
The figure turned abruptly as they heard their name. ‘Zayn?!’
‘Louis, it’s me!’ Zayn screamed, slowing as he got nearer the figure.
‘You came!’ Louis said, pulling Zayn into his arms, his missing piece finally fitting back into place.
‘I love you Louis, forever and always. Now we can be together forever’ Zayn said into Louis’ shoulder.
‘For a thousand years?’ Louis whispered.
‘And a thousand more’.
Louis took Zayn’s hand like he had for the first time on their wedding day, their fingers interlocking and their wedding rings brushing eachother. They turned towards the ball of light and walked into it.
They were finally together again; and that was all Zayn had ever wanted.
