It's Complicated - One Direction

Chapter 18

Ariela's POV

Today was Saturday. The day Louis and the boys left. Damn I had been dreading this day. I walked out to his car willing myself not to have a total melt down in front of the boys and Jay.

"I'm really going to miss you." I told Louis embracing him in a bear hug.

"I'm really going to miss you too sis." He answered squeezing the life out of me. I reluctantly let go and moved on to the other boys. Zayn was first, and then Niall. Next came Harry who pulled me into a massive hug. I threw my arms around his neck and he said,

"I love you Ari, nothing can keep us apart." I didn't get a chance to reply before he hopped into the van leaving Liam and I alone outside the vehicle.

"Listen Ariela, you are so special to me and lately I've been missing you like crazy. You are the only girl that I am truly in love with and I hope this will make all the difference." He handed me a CD and gave me a warm embrace. To be honest, I think Liam gives the best hugs because he rubs your back and it just makes me feel safe.

"Thanks Li." I said looking up at him. He nodded and jumped in the van. I waved goodbye and they sped off to London.

I sat on my bed and popped the CD into my CD player. Liam's voice rang out in my ears.

"Hey Ariela, these are songs that I wrote about the way I've been feeling and I just really need you to hear them. They are called Stole My Heart, I Should've Kissed You and More Than This. Anyway, I hope you like them." I then heard the sweet sound of Liam singing.

The light shines, it's getting hot on my shoulders,

I don't mind, this time it doesn't matter,

Your friends, they look good but you look better,

Don't you know all night, I've been waiting for a girl like you to come around, round , round

After that song was done the next one played.

I keep playing inside my head, all that you said to me,

I lie awake just to convince myself, this wasn't just a dream,

Cause you were right here and I should've taken the chance,

But I got so scared and I lost the moment again,

It's all that I can think about, oh, you're all that I can think about,

When that song ended the final one played and this one got to me the most.

I'm broken, do you hear me,

I'm blinded cause you're everything I see,

I'm dancing, alone,

I'm prayin, that your heart will just turn around,

And as I walk up to your door,

My head turns to face the floor,

Cause I can't look you in the eyes and say,

When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,

It just won't feel right,

Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,

When he lays you down I might just die inside,

It just won't feel right,

Cause I can love you more than this,

I can love you more than this.

The song finished and I was in tears. Liam really loved me, he really loved me and I let his love go to waste because I was crushing on my best friend. How could I be so stupid?! I whipped out my phone and texted him.
