If I Let You Know... [N.H.]

40. Summer Paradise

"So..." Louis starts saying; "you've been with us for almost three months, Tori. Three months since the day Niall didn't even remember what your name was"

"Louis! Why would you say that for?" Niall says turning to him.

"You told me to take care of the intro, didn't you?"

"Yeah, but..."

"Well," Harry interrupts looking to the camera; "we have gone through many things together"

"And we just wanted to thank you for these amazing months" Zayn continues.

"Months that will be difficult to forget..." Liam says pointing at the camera.

The screen suddenly goes black and another video starts playing: it's a footage of the premiere where Niall came to pick me by the van. How silent everything went when Niall kissed me on the cheek. The interview we did at the red carpet. Harry saving the day. Liam and I arriving to Miami's airport. Harry and I walking around some city. Liam and I at the surroundings of a stadium attempting to play basketball, Louis and I playing football at another stadium. Niall and I in Madison Square Garden. Harry, Niall and I sightseeing again.

I realise something: those aren't videos the boys have taken. Those are all fans' footages, and paparazzi's: The six of us exiting a hotel. Me at one of their concerts dancing and singing along.

The screen goes black again and the boys appear on it.

"Nice, huh?" Liam says with a smile; "but you don't fool us" he adds squinting his eyes.

"We know about your crazy side" Harry smiles cheekily.

"Some of us better than others" Louis jokes poking Niall with his elbow.

"Tommo!" Niall exclaims and they all laugh.

"And not only we know about your crazy side, but we have proof of it" Zayn says as weird noises start playing in the background.

The screen goes black one more time and suddenly all the weird noises make sense: it's a clip of the soundcheck in Wembley Stadium.

I chuckle when I see myself sitting on one of the sides of the stage, not even daring to look anywhere.

Then the claps and the music from Na, Na, Na start playing and the video is replaced by another one of me laughing with Harry at the tour bus. Me playing video games with Louis. Me combing Liam and blowing his face with the hairdryer. Lou and I looking at her phone sitting on a couch. Lottie and I playing with the snapchat filters. Lux and I chasing each other around the seats while the boys do the soundcheck in the background. A piggyback ride race at the outside of a stadium: me on Niall, Zayn on Liam, Louis on Harry,  Michael on Luke and Ashton on Calum. Once we've all passed the camera, Mark runs after us giving a piggyback ride to Paddy. 'They didn't win' as a caption along with the footage.

I let out a laugh as the video changes to Niall playing guitar and me staring at him with a smile. Us seated on a sofa, cuddling. Movie night at Liam's hotel room. Harry writing down on his notebook and me looking at him. Zayn hugging me tight chuckling and me trying to get away from him. Me singing out of tune with 5 Seconds of Summer while One Direction is doing a soundcheck.

And it goes on.
