Liam smiled "I now know where you got the ring from"
Zayn nodded "You work for Bram"
Liam shrugged "You had your eyes on me all night last night" Liam put his hands behind his back "Kinda disappointed you didn't come over to say hello"
Zayn raised an eyebrow "You saw me"
Liam tilted his head to the side "You're hard to miss Zayn"
The bell rang and Liam smiled "Will you let me get to class? I don't think I'd like to be late"

Liam was running across the football field ad fast as he could
His throat felt dry but he didn't stop
Liam kicked the ball to Theo who kicked it into the goal
Liam put his hands on his knees as the coach clapped
They weren't in a match (obviously), but coach chose 2 captains and made them choose team mates
Liam's team ran upto Theo and they cheered
Liam was smiling until Dunbar walked over to him
"Louis is calling you"
Liam furrowed his brows and answered, before Liam could say anything
Louis brokenly whispered
"I need you...."
And that's all Liam needed to sprint away
~~~~~
Zayn watched as Liam ran off, he watched Liam fumble trying to find his car keys not realising they were on the floor
Zayn looked around then at Liam, he walked towards him, picked the keys off the floor and gave them to him
Liam threw everything into his locker, gave Zayn a quick smile then ran off
~~~~~
Liam hugged Louis tightly as Louis sobbed
"You're staying with me.... Ok?"
Louis frowned "I can't do-"
"You can and you will. The guest bedroom was always yours, I guess it's time we make it official"
Louis nodded "I'll pay-"
"No. Keep what you have"
"But-"
"Don't."
"Liam please.... I want to do this, I don't want to feel like a Leech"
Liam sighed "Fine...."
Louis hugged Liam and Liam hugged him back
