The rose and the sunflower.
The girl with the golden eyes and the boy with a golden heart.
The girl that believed love was just a fairytale and the boy that believed fairytales are just stories waiting to come true.
'I used to think love was a point...

It's the day before the El Paso show in Texas. Louis, Emma, Niall, and I all sit around in a hotel room, doing our own thing while Harry, Liam, and Zayn are- well I don't actually know where they are.
From the sound of it, Louis and Niall are playing a video game on the tv. I think it's Fifa but I'm not paying close enough attention to know. The two of them are sat at the edge of the bed, leaning forward in their focused positions. Emma is leaning against the headboard, listening to music with her earplugs in. Her eyes are shut but I don't think she's asleep. There's no way she can sleep through Louis and Niall's yelling at the screen every two minutes.
I am laying on the floor in front of the bed, between the foot of it and the wall the tv is mounted on. I have a book in my hands, Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen, reading the pages and getting lost in my head. I've read this book countless times, but the twist is I've never once actually finished it. I've always seemed to have a thing for starting books but never finishing them.
"Shit!" Louis exclaims for the millionth time.
And of course, it's always followed by Niall, "Hahaha, you really suck at this game." Every damn time.
"Go again." Louis demands and I can hear the game starting up again, a whistle or something being blown on the screen.
My eyes continue to scan the page. I'm right at the part where Mr. Willoughby leaves for London unexpectedly. I don't think I'll ever get over how he just up and left like that... but I digress.
The sound of the door opens which causes me to actually look away from my book after an hour straight of staring at the text. Liam stands at the entrance of the room, tired smile on his face but the enthusiasm in his voice distracts from it.
"Let's go out and do something I don't want to be here anymore." Liam waltz in and leans against the wall next to the television.
Louis speaks up, "Look outside mate."
Liam goes over to the window, parting a gap in the blinds to see outside. "Holy shit." he says. "How many people is that?"
We were planning to go out today, however Niall and Louis looked out the window earlier and saw what's probably well over five thousand people outside the hotel.
Essentially, the boys are trapped in here, meaning Emma and I are also trapped since one, we don't really want to go anywhere without them and two, even if we did want to leave, the fact that both of us are dating members of the band makes it unsafe or something for us to go out there with all those people.
"A fucking lot." Niall responds, him and Louis still playing the game.
"So what, we're just trapped in here now?" Liam sighs and slides down the wall until he's sitting on the floor.
