One Direction One Shots

1D Can Get Through Anything

This was a request.

Once upon a time, in a bustling city, there lived five friends named Liam, Louis, Niall, Harry, and Zayn. (I had to add Zayn, though he does nothing, it isn't One Direction without him.) They were inseparable, sharing a bond that had grown stronger over the years. Each of them was around the same age, and together they faced both the joys and challenges that life threw their way.

Among the group, Niall had autism, and his sensitivity to noise made everyday situations a little more difficult for him. Louis, on the other hand, had Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED), which meant that he occasionally struggled to control his anger and emotions. When Louis lost his cool, he could become loud and explosive, sometimes hurting himself or those around him.

One sunny afternoon, as the friends were strolling through the city, enjoying a rare moment of peace, they found themselves surrounded by a swarm of paparazzi. The photographers had discovered their presence and pounced on the opportunity to capture their images and sell stories to the highest bidder.

The paparazzi, known for their intrusive and relentless behavior, began hurling hurtful remarks at Louis, hoping to provoke a reaction. Louis, already on edge, felt his anger simmering just beneath the surface. The harsh words cut deep, and he knew, he wouldn't be able to contain his emotions much longer.

Without any warning, Louis exploded, his voice booming through the air as he confronted the paparazzi. He tried hurting them, out of both frustration, and as a defense mechanism to protect himself from the pain of their cruel words. Chaos ensued as the situation spiraled out of control.

Harry, always trying to be the peacemaker, rushed to Louis' side. He knew his friend needed help, so he did everything he could possibly think of to calm him down. He gently pulled Louis away from the paparazzi, leading him towards the car. But even inside the safety of the car, away from everything, Louis had a hard time regaining his composure.

As Louis continued to vent his anger, his loud outbursts upset Niall. The noise sensitivity that accompanied his autism overwhelmed him, (After all, "Mental conditions are buy one get seven free." -A Random Twitter User (Possibly Modified). Shit, wait, don't think I'm saying that noise sensitivity is a condition or anything, because it's not, sorry if you got the wrong idea at first.) causing his own anxieties to rise. Seeking solace and comfort, Niall turned to Liam, burying his face in Liam's supportive embrace.

The car ride was a tumultuous one. Harry did his best to comfort Louis, but the efforts to calm him only seemed to add to Niall's distress. The combination of Louis' outbursts and Niall's growing anxiety created a suffocating atmosphere within the relatively small space.

Finally arriving home, the group stepped out of the car, hoping that the familiar surroundings would bring some peace. But as they entered their sanctuary, Louis reached his breaking point. He unleashed his pent-up frustration, smashing things, screaming at the top of his lungs, crying, and aggressively pulling at his own hair in a desperate attempt to release the turmoil within.

Witnessing Louis' meltdown, Niall couldn't bear the intensity of the situation. Overwhelmed, he too succumbed to a meltdown of his own, tears streaming down his face as he tugged at his hair in distress. It was a scene of chaos and despair.

Amidst the chaos, Liam emerged as the anchor of support. He understood the needs of his friends, their struggles and vulnerabilities. Liam approached Niall with a gentleness that only true friendship could provide. He enveloped Niall in a calming embrace, whispering reassurances and offering a sense of security.

Liam's presence and soothing words gradually helped Niall regain his composure. The storm within him began to subside, and his panic attack slowly dissolved. Liam's unwavering support and understanding acted as a balm to their wounded spirits.

Together, the friends navigated the challenges that life presented them, their bond stronger than ever. They learned to lean on each other during difficult times, providing comfort and solace when it was needed most. And in the face of adversity, they discovered that love and understanding could conquer even the darkest moments, allowing them to find the strength to carry on.

(I know none of you probably give a fuck about this, but I used a thesaurus during this chapter a lot.)
