Love Will Find its Way

Louis To The Rescue

Thea's POV

"I can't believe I've been struggling, while Liam has been hidding his secret!" I broke into tears, as if I was an endless waterfall.

Zayn was sitting beside me, rubbing my back with comfort. Somehow, I knew it would be a bad idea to come visit him, but its not like any of the other girls or even the boys, would fancy any of my problems. It's been to dramatic lately, and I'm upset that Liam could do this to me. Yea, I'm aware that I've done the same, but couldn't he at least tell me the truth?

"What do you mean?" Zayn asked, handing me a handkerchief.

Unladylike, I sniffed and harshly wiped away my tears, thanking Zayn in the process.

"Alice visited me today, claiming that I had to see some damn pictures, with Liam being all lovey dovey with that snake - Vera." I turned my head to face him, snickering. "Imagine, we've been getting all the crude comments about us being cheaters and traitors, while Liam and Vera has gotten off the hook. Geez, I feel so stupid."

"Shit." He muttered, and it confused me. There's something fishy, and I'm fully aware that the smell is radiating from him.

"What do you mean about 'shit', Zayn?" I asked, frowning.

He didn't answer, and I felt like he was keeping a secret from me. I repeated the question, but with a much sterner voice.

"Um uh... I'll get you some water." He stood up, and it was impossible to say more about it, so I let it go. For now.

Sniffing and feeling pity for myself, almost as if it was a habit now, I stood up and glanced thoroughly on his wall of pictures. I smiled, catching a picture with Zayn and I graduating and one when we were small kids. I wonder why they're still here, but then again we've been really good friends. Momentarily, I wished that nothing of this drama happened, and everyone could live like small kids without a care in he world.

"I missed those times." I stumbled backwards, landing in Zayn's heaving chest when he surprised me.

"You're so clumsy." He grinned, handing me a half filled glass of water, the rest pooling on his black carpet, which I surprisingly find out that I gave him ages ago.

Smiling sheepishly, I found myself drying out, so I gulped the clear water down in one shift. "Thanks." I mumbled, gasping when our fingers lightly brushed against each other, when I handed it back.

He pressed his lips together and nodded slowly, before glancing on the pictures.

"Can I ask you something?" I asked, flushing when I reluctantly doubted if I should make this any less awkward. It was almost becoming tense, and I was glad that Zayn's maid wasn't in the room to witness that.

"Sure. Spill the beans."

"Um... Why do you still have pictures of us around your flat, and things I gave you when we were still...you know?" I rubbed my hands, a shiver suddenly spreading through my body.

'You're so enigmatic. Right before, you were mad and now.. Now you're practically blushing in his presence. Try thinking about how your drama started. Exactly, your stupid feelings towards two guys, who only got trapped in your spell. It's your fault, and you shouldn't make it worse.' My subconscious snapped, surprising me. Was I really the problem in all of this? Of course I am!.. I'm currently bringing up something that should've been shoved back in the past long ago, and not give me an awkward moment, when Zayn was only helping me out with me demeanor. Including, Liam.

"You know what? Don't answer." I smiled apologetically. My subconscious is right. "I should go." And with that, I took my coat laying carelessly on the floor and out to of the door, stunning him as I left him without an explanation.

I looked from side to side, and then strode my way back home. Grabbing my phone, I pushed the speed dial. The phone picked up at the third ring, and I felt a slow pain squeezing my heart.

If I really wanted to end all of this drama, I should do something about it, and not just pretend to be some kinda princess letting two boys fighting over something as stupid as me.

I don't even know why they fancy me, and I'm doubting if they'll ever hunt me down after I do this. Besides, Zayn and Liam wasn't yet friends, so if I might do this they'll probably forgive each other while they still have the chance.

"Hey, Simon... I'm fine, thank you. Um, yes. I was wondering if I could meet up at the building... It's a matter of vital discussion... About what? Well, it's about the contract and the tour... Okay, I'll see you then... Bye."

Louis' POV

"So, its pretty much gone downhill between you all?" Eleanor asks, as she lays her head on my shoulder, while we're watching a movie. And quite frankly, its pretty much rubbish watching those scary vintage movies.

"Yep. I mean, I'm not mad, but its just irritating that Zayn, Liam and Thea would've let the tour be in their problems. But since they can't be on good terms again, it had to be that way. Thinking about it, I wonder how they're all doing?" I say more to myself, than Eleanor who was shifting on the love seat.

I smiled lovingly, kissing her forehead, before excusing myself.

"Where are you going?" She pouted, crossing her arms against her chest.

I chuckled at her childish behavior and pressed a kiss upon her pink lips. "I'll be in the kitchen. I have to make a call." Pointing to the screen, she glanced that way. "Watch out for the monsters, babe." Just as a monster appeared she fell on the floor of surprise.

Ambling through my mess of soda cans and popcorn paper bags, I fetched for a glass of juice and poured the fruity substance into a glass. Grabbing my phone inside my pocket, I called Niall's number, since he might be at Zayn's today.

"Hey, Louis." He said, in a very quiet tone, which worried me.

"What's wrong? Where are you, Niall?" I asked.

He chuckled, but it was soon covered with a loud sigh. "I'm fine, mate. And I'm at Zayn's... It's Thea." He said, worrying me even more, making my mouth dry, so I took a big gulp. "She decided fully quit the tour."

My eyes widened and I spat out the substance in spraying motion all over my kitchen counter. Christ. "What?! She can't! I mean its not fully her fault. She shouldn't be taking all of the blame. Right? And when did this happened?"

"I know, but apparently she called Simon today and he understood. He said he couldn't risk a renowned boyband, just because of an amateur singer... So he agreed with the other proposition too."

Cocking up my eyebrow, I felt Eleanor's arms wrap around my lower torso from the back of me. Since I knew she wanted to hear what Niall was about to say, I pushed the loud speaker. "And what's that other thing?"

"She cut off the contract with SyCo."

Eleanor's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, resembling mine. "Fuck! No! She shouldn't! Did she even leave us message?" I asked, hopeful she might explain her reasons, apart from the drama between Liam and Zayn.

"Actually, there was... She..um.. She told Simon that we shouldn't go look for her. Apparently, she decided to leave the country early morning, but I'm not sure where."

Shaking my head with disbelief, I couldn't imagine Thea would do this. Not did she only leave the tour and SyCo, but she was going to leave the country, because of her issues. "Call Harry and say to him that he should meet you at Zayn's in fifteen. I'll do the same with Liam." I said, and then cut off the line when we said goodbye.

"I like you when you're being bosy." Eleanor reminded me that she was there, and oh so alluring she was.

I scowled, not in the mood for her games, I so many times wanted to start but she ended."As much as I want to... I'm going to help out some friends." I said determined to clear up this messed up shit.

Ones again. It's me whom is going to clear out things... Gotta love your private time.
