Living For Today

Chapter 4

Gillian POV

"Liam... what's wrong?" He looked nervous as I ate more crackers he got me. "You're only a month preganant and you're already showing. Why?" He asked nervously. "I don't know. Why? What's wrong?" I asked as he paced back and forth. He stopped suddenly and looked at me. "I haven't told management." He said and flinched back as if to brace himself for my reaction.

"Well tell them you idiot. We can't take this baby back!" I laughed and he looked at me surprised. "You arent mad? And what if they tell us to get married? " he asked and the thought didn't really come to my mind that they wouldn't like that we weren't actually married. I knew my parents wouldn't like it. "Lets get married." I said with a smile. "What?" "For our two year anniversary lets get married."

Liam POV

We went to the Super Center that was open 24 hours and she got a white dress. It was strapless and fell to the floor. She looked gorgeous in anything. We got back to the flat and waited in the hall for everyone to get back.

Andy came storming in yelling at Sami who was crying. Sofie walked in furious with a very very drunk Hazza behind her. Sarah and Niall were pissed drunk and holding each other up. Lou and Moriah stepped out quietly with Zayn and Jade. Shelby walked in behind everyone with Ed behind her on the phone.

"Pst Zayn." I called him over as everyone else went Into their own flats. "We're gonna get married nect week.. Or should we wait a little? Wait. What happened?" His facial was shocked at first. "Why?" "Because I know management will want us to be married." I explained and he nodded understanding what I meant. "And about them well come watch the news."

We all walked into our flat and Zayn found the local gossip show on tv. I hated watching this one becauee it always blew things out of proportion. The fake blonde began with her name and then pictures of tonight came up.

" Four out of five of One Direction was seen tonight at the night club Fire. Along with them came Ed Sheeran and another friend, Andy Samuels and all with their girlfriends.. Not only were they there but also other celebrities like Rita Ora, Olly Murs, The Wanted and Taylor Swift. But where was Liam Payne in all of this?

"The Wanted's Nathan Skyes was seen getting close to an unknown girl who seems to be dating Andy Samuels, Liam Payne's best friend, as well. Who is this girl and who is she really with?" A picture of Nathan and Sami kissing came of the screen and I looked at Zayn confused. He mirrored my expression as I kept listening.

"Niall Horan and girlfriend of two years Sarah Booth were seen having too many drinks and an inside witness says she yelled "I'm getting married" loudly before being told to stayed quiet. A ring was also seen on her finger walking into the club but not when she was walking out. Is Niall Horan tieing the knot?" Pictures of our friends flashed across the screen.

"Country Singer Taylor Swift was seen chatting up Harry Styles. It was rumoured he liked her before meeting long time girlfriend Sofie Tompson. And after tonight our suspicions were confirmed when an eye witness told us "he held her hand for most of the night while his girlfriend was no where in sight. They looked like they liked each other with their whispering and kisses on the cheek." Is this another ploy on behalf of Swift and her constant publicity stunts or is Styles cheating on his girlfriend who could just be a set up to make him seem more down to earth?" Pictures of Taylor and Harry came on the screen and I cringed. She was crazy. And why would Harry do that?

"Wow." Was all I said as Gillian sat there silenced. "Yeah... but you know Nathan. He probably forced himself on Sami. And I don't know what Harry was thinking. That twat." Zayn said holding Jade's hand. "And I shouldve watched Niall and Sarah better. I'm sorry." Jade apologized quickly as I shook my head at her. "This isnt your fault. Its theirs but we'll figure it out tomorrow yeah? Its late. Go to sleep." I told them as they left.

"Lets just sleep yeah?" I suggested as she started to pull up her shirt. "Am I really showing?" She asked a little worried. I laughed a little. I nodded as a knock on the door sounded and Sofie followed behind it. "Can I sleep in Niall's room?" She asked and explained Harry was passed out on their bed. I tried to ask her about it but all she said was she was bombarded on Twitter and then heard it on the radio. She started to cry and Gillian tucked her in and kissed her forhead as I hummed at the door till she slept. It sounds silly but sometimes I think Gillian and I are everyones parents sometimes.

Ed POV

Shelby went to bed and I stayed up on the phone with my manager. "But Ed you have to do this. Its a one in a lifetime chance." I sighed quietly as I looked at the sleeping girl beside me. I stood up and walked out to the kitchen . "But its our first year anniversary in a week. I can't just leave." They wouldn't listen to me no matter what I said. I got asked to go on tour and I would start in three days. I was already rehearsed and everything so that wasn't a problem but I didn't want to leave for five months just when we've only been home for a few.

"Ed you have to go. Just tell Shelby. She can visit you once a month. You don't get a choice actually. We'll pick you up at your house in three days." And with that he hung up. Bloody hell! I have to convince them I can't go! Was the only thought on my mind. I went to bed and stripped to my boxers. She rolled over and moved towards me. She snuggles next to me and her long hair sprawled across both of us. I placed a kiss on the tip of her head snc decided sleep would be best.
