They Complicate Your Relationship

Harry: "You've done a good job, you know?" Robin says as you are left with him in the living room when Harry gets up to help Anne in the kitchen with the rest of the Christmas dinner. You turn and smile. You weren't exactly sure what he was talking about, but it was a compliment nonetheless. "It's hard to keep up with him and the life he has, and may I say you've taken it on well." You chuckle to yourself, "Thank you." You weren't sure what else to say. You hadn't really thought about how you had gone about this new relationship with Harry. You were well aware of what you were getting into when you decided to be with him exclusively, but not thinking you needed to be praised for how you were handling it though. "It's just really nice to see someone who is with him for his heart and not the attention." You had never thought about anything other than his heart during your time spent with him. Yes, you were now the center of attention everywhere you went, but that meant nothing to you. "I'm just really lucky that he's allowed me to be a part of his life like this." Robin shakes his head. "I think you've got that backwards. He's the lucky one. He doesn't meet a lot of genuine people these days." You weren't sure how true that was, but even in the short time of knowing him you had seen people in his life come and go rather quickly. You supposed Robin had a point there. "You've gone about this whole thing with such.." He paused to find the right word and you were nervous with what he would come up with. "Grace." Grace? You had never been graceful a day in your life. You laugh yet again as his compliment, never having been very good at accepting them in the first place. "I don't know about that." "I do. Anne and I say it all the time. You're the perfect complement to him, and the perfect representation of him when he's away." You hadn't thought about any of this. A 'representation' of him? What does that even mean? He could see the confusion on your face. "We always notice it when you're out and his fans are around you. You act just as he would, with so much compassion. You've made yourself just as approachable as he has and it's only taken you a few months. We couldn't be more pleased to have you around." Whatever words you had planned on saying had immediately left you at this point. You were the luckiest girl in the world to have all of this support. Harry returns to the room only to notice your eyes beginning to gloss over. "What'd you do?" He jokes with Robin. "Just telling her how happy your mum and I are to have her around," he answers simply with a smile. Harry slumps down beside you and pulls you into the crook of his arm. "She's far too emotional for talk like that, Robin," he teases and you pout, bringing a laugh out of him. "What? It's the truth."

Liam:  "Now, Liam," the interviewer begins as she quickly changes the subject. "We've got pictures here of you that we would love for you to explain." "Alright, let's see 'em." He knew what they were. He'd been asked about them all day from every person that walked through the door to interview him and the boys. "Tell us what you're doing here, it looks pretty late," she says as she hands him copies of the photos the paparazzi had taken of him a night ago.  "Yeah, this was probably about one or two in the morning. I'm not really sure exactly the time, but that's all stuff for a project." "What kind of project?" "A school project, a final actually." "But Liam you aren't in school." "I know, but (Y/N) is, and she had come up with this amazing last minute idea for her final project in one of her classes but we didn't have any of the stuff to make it at the house." "So you went out and got it for her?" He nods. "I told her to stay home so she could plan it all out. She sent me off with a list, and we stayed up and finished the project before she had to go to class." "So you stayed up all night helping her with the project? What a great boyfriend you are," she compliments and Liam smiles from ear to ear having remembered you saying the same thing when he had walked back through the door with your materials. "I'm assuming she got an A on her project, seeing as you helped and all." "Yeah, she actually texted me before this interview to thank me for helping because she did get an A on it, but it was all her really. The idea was hers, I just did what she told me to do to make it happen." "They're so cute, aren't they?" Harry comments and the rest of the boys coo playfully, and Liam's face goes red. "They really are. We always love seeing you two out. You're always so loved up on one another." "I've got a very special lady," he replies honestly. "We can tell. I don't want to turn this interview into one all about your relationship but.." "Oh please do. Liam usually does most of the talking anyways," Louis interrupts, sitting back on the couch. "Well I just wanted to ask you how the two of you did it," she continues, addressing Liam once more. "How we have a relationship?" "Yes. It seems things have only gotten stronger between the two of you despite the fact that you're gone most of the time." Liam thinks for a moment about how the two of you actually keep things together. "I'd give most of the credit to her. She doesn't have to stick around but she does, even through all of this," he says gesturing to the other boys. "I'm just incredibly lucky to have someone like her."
