They Don't Know About Us

These Words Will Be Written On My Stone - Chapter 78

*NIALLS POV*

Seeing Harry in such a state off camera makes me freeze mid-sentence. I can't make out what any of them are saying but I know it's serious by how quickly Harry and Chloe leave the set. "Errr...sorry guys but something's come up and Harry will no longer be live with us in the studio." I say clearly, staring into the camera lens. I can clearly picture thousands of fans screaming at their screens begging to know what's happened. "The rest is private. Sorry guys, we love you all crazy mofos!" I beg as the voice in my ear tells me to get it together and interview our girlfriends. At this point I wanted to scream back at the invisible person and tell them to fuck off! But, knowing that would possibly effect our careers and privacy issues, I bury the anger deep inside. 

Paige, Shelby, Ellie and Beth are now all sat on the brightly patterned sofa, smiling effortlessly for the fans. Paige suddenly freezes on me. She may be smiling but her eyes tell a different story. She's worried. And scared. Worried for Harry and Chloe and scared for Gemma. "So girls, what was it like? Did you ever think that a simple meet and great would turn into this?" I ask, gliding my eyes across the room. 
"Definitely not!" Shelby says almost instantly, her hand cupping her lower abdomen. 
"But I'm happy that it did. Not just because we're with you all in relationships but because we've found the real you. All you're personalities and traits. Even after everything that's happened; from me and Paige getting kidnapped, to the horrific car accident. I wouldn't change a single minute of it!" she says emotionally, having to wipe a single tear from her cheek. Paige grips her hand tightly in comfort, the scars becoming visible from beneath her long sleeved dress. I clear my throat and take Demi into my arms, allowing Shelby and Paige some private time. 

"Okay guys before I go, this beautiful little leprechaun, if you don't already know, is mine and Paiges daughter, Demetria Horan. I hope you'll grow to love her just as we do. Demi Lovato, if you're watching us right now then we wanted to say thank you. You helped my amazing girlfriend stay strong through some tough times. And Directioners, I hope you also know that all of you still mean the absolute world to us and we'd never be here without you all. Especially our fans from the UK! You guys allowed us to come third in the X Factor and go on our first ever tour as One Direction! We can never repay you for what you've done for us. Once again thank you, I hoped you enjoyed our live stream!" I shout before Liam, Louis and Zayn join me in front of the cameras. 

"Sorry about the technical difficulties but lets admit, this wouldn't be 1DDay without them!" Lou says sarcastically. We all laugh at Lou's sly comment before Liam shoves him in a headlock. "Kevin! Kevin! Help me!" Lou screams from beneath Liam's arm. We all burst into a fit of laughter, even Demi starts to giggle quietly. "Kevin can't save you now Tommo!" Liam says crazily, messily scrubbing his hand through his hair. Suddenly, Liam releases Lou and steps towards Zayn. "Don't even think about it Liam! Remember who won the ninja competition earlier! I'd kick your arse!" Zayn shouts before we all run off in different directions as the cameramen shout "And we're clear!" I stroll calmly towards Paige and kiss her, Demi still protected by my arms. Suddenly, I remember what happened earlier today. 
"We need to get back to the UK! Now!"
