You're Still The One

Chapter 8- New Beginning and Ending

(Harry's POV)

We were about to land when Liam came to talk to me. After our manager had left me alone, I sat there sulking at nothing in particular. The boys could tell that something was bothering but didn't want to disturb me. "Are you alright mate?" Liam asked. I shook my head. "Is it about Valerie?" He said hesitantly as if at the mention of it I was going to bite his head off. I looked out the window. "So they told you?" I asked not looking at him. "Yeah. And I tried talking them out of it but they won't budge. They are convinced that it'll get us more publicity but I think they just like it better when we're single because we have more girls chasing after us." Liam said. My eyes began to water when I looked at him. "But the fans love Danielle and Eleanor; I don't see how they wouldn't love Valerie. She gets more love from our fans than hate and they love us more because we have such amazing girlfriends. It just doesn't make sense." I said as the tears spilled over. Liam sat next to me and put his arm around my shoulders. I cried and cried until the plane landed. When I stopped, I quickly wiped my eyes so no one would notice how heart broken I was. It just wasn't fair that I would lose the best thing that has ever happened to me. "Liam?" I said before Liam could get up and leave. "Hmm?" He said turning around to look at me. "How come you and Danielle broke up and got back together?" I asked. A sad smile spread across his features. "Well management forced us to break up but I kept looking at the promise ring I gave her and just decided to ask for her back besides what management told us." Liam said. I nodded when he walked away. I wondered if they gave Liam the same threat that they gave me. I shook my head and took a deep breath. I was about to do the most painful thing in my entire life.

We got off the plane and grabbed our luggage. "Are Rebecca and Valerie here yet?" Louis asked. I shrugged and checked my watch. It was almost two and we still haven't spotted the girls. The lads and I put on our disguises on before we got off our plane so no one would recognize us but I doubt they would last for long. Louis decided to wear his fake mustache and a pink fedora hat with large purple zebra ray bands. He looked completely ridiculous and it wouldn't surprise me if the fans spotted him because of what he was wearing. I looked at Liam and Zayn who wore the simple hoodie and sunglasses and a fake mustache. Niall wore a beanie and a fake beard. I wore my mustache, a beanie and a scarf. We looked like a ridiculous bunch. Maybe that's why it wasn't that hard for Rebecca and Valerie to find us.

"Hey Louis. Nice hat." Rebecca said taking off Louis's hat and putting it on. "Give me back my hat!" Louis said snatching it back and putting it back on. We all laughed when Louis stuck his tongue out at Rebecca. "How was your flight?" Valerie asked taking a hold of my hand. I smiled at her and squeezed her hand gently. "It was boring! There was no good food what so ever." Niall complained. Rebecca smacked his arm. "Food is food. Don't complain about it." She said. We picked up our bags and walked to their car. "Which one is your car?" Liam asked looking around. Rebecca began walking off to an SUV nearby. "This way boys." She said. We followed her wondering what they did to their clown car. When we first visited they had picked us up in a car that looked like it could only fit two people but all of us were able to fit in it perfectly. We began calling it the clown car because people would stare at us as we all came out of the car. "What is this?" Zayn asked as Rebecca unlocked the trunk of the SUV. "Our new car. The clown car broke down and it's been in the shop for the last couple of weeks." Valerie said. We quickly stuffed all of our bags in the back and piled into the car.

When we finally arrived at Rebecca's and Valerie's apartment, the boys and I all claimed our rooms and put our things away. Rebecca and Valerie argued that it wasn't a flat but an apartment but it was in fact a flat. They had the whole fifth floor to themselves and it was big enough to fit a hundred people. "Home sweet home." Rebecca said. It wasn't going to feel so sweet after what I had to do...

(Valerie's POV)

It was almost seven and the boys were taking forever to get ready. We made plans to go to dinner at a fancy restaurant where Rebecca said she had a big announcement for us. I looked at the clock again. "Boys we're going to be late for our reservation. Hurry up!" Rebecca yelled up the stairs. One by one the boys came running down the stairs all dressed nice. Rebecca had them line up and she checked over their outfits. "How come every time we come here you drill us like a drill sergeant." Louis complained. I giggled as Rebecca glared at him. Rebecca and I were in ROTC in high school so it just kinda stuck with us. Plus the boys would goof off and get completely side tracked so Rebecca's drill sergeant side came out. "Okay let's go." Rebecca said once she was done looking over the boys clothes. I went over and took Harry's hand and smiled up at him. I was a little hurt when he pulled his hand away and didn't even look at me. My smiled faded and I looked over at Rebecca who saw what happened. I gave her a questioning look and she shrugged, just as confused as me. We left to the restaurant and it was a silent ride except for the sound of Rebecca's non stop chatter. It was hard trying to keep up with Rebecca's talk at any time. When we finally arrived, Rebecca jumped out and went inside to get our table. "Follow me." The man said leading us to a table in the far back. It was perfect so no one would see us if anyone did recognize us. "So Rebecca? What's the big announcement?" Louis asked looking over his menu.
