Everything fell silent as the boys voices echoed and caught up in the wind. No one knew what to do or say in the crowds of girls. They had just heard the last song of a boy-band they had loved for most of their lives. They weren't just a boy-band for them though, it was so much more. Unless you were a fan, a directioner you would never understand.

The boys glanced at each other before looking out to their girls. Simultaneously they knelt down and placed their microphones in the middle of the stage. Niall's with the Irish flag, Zayn's with the ZAP design, Liam's with D.J. LP, Harry's with H.S. and Louis with The Tommo written across the side of each. They all were placed neatly in a row.

The five boys stepped back from them in silence and waved goodbye to the girls. They all walked off stage together and stood in their own private circle away from everyone. They slung their arms around each other, all of them with tears rolling down their cheeks.

"Thanks guys." Louis said with a sad smile. "Thanks for the best time of my life." he said to them looking each of them in the eyes. They all nodded.

"Thank you." they all echoed to each other, still in the group circle. They stood like that not knowing how to say goodbye to each other, sure it wouldn't be forever but it was saying goodbye to One Direction once one of them stepped out of this circle it was over, the band.

"Liam." a soft voice drifted from his girlfriend Danielle. Liam looked at all the boys.

"Bye guys."  he said hugging each of them before walking off hand in hand with Danielle. Liam had left, he was out of the band.

"I have to go she's got an appointment at the hospital." Zayn croaked after a moment of quietness referring to his girlfriend. Again they all nodded and hugged. Zayn walked off to find her leaving the three boys.

"I have a plane to catch b-back to Ireland, going to visit my hometown for a bit." Niall managed to get out between his tears. They again repeated the same process hugging each other. Niall then walked off in tears, not being able to speak.

"Just us two now." Harry said looking at the older boy. The boys stood looking around before glancing back to each other.

"Good luck with what you decide to do mate." Louis said to Harry hugging him, saying their last goodbyes.

"Bye Lou." Harry spoke, Louis nodded before going to find Eleanor, finally his relationship with her could be real with no hate or rumours.

Harry sat on one of the boxes that held equipment thinking back to 16 when he had auditioned. No way had he expected all of this to happen. No way had he expected meet 4 other boys with exactly the same dream as him and then become world famous with them and have the best time of his life.

Slowly everyone left and Harry had had to move to a step because the box of equipment had been packed up. It was late and cold but he couldn't leave. Trafalgar square was empty and silent. The corwds of crying girls had left slowly and the stage had been packed away, their microphones were getting put in storage.

He began to cry softly missing the band already but in the same respect thinking about the most amazing 10 years he had ever had, replaying it all in his head. The laughs, the tears, the inside jokes, the rumours and hate, the fans and dedication, everything.

Harry let out a weak laugh thinking back to a song they had sung on X Factor and sung the last line quietly.

"Those were the best days of my life" he fell quiet. Getting up he walked away from the square back to his apartment probably.

And that was how One Direction had let go of the best worst thing they had ever had.
