Chapter 15

After a couple hair pulls and arm bites, we agreed to watch Titanic, an old movie about a ship that sinks. It's more emotional than it sounds. It has the love triangle in there somewhere. We all got situated in our spots while the previews began to play. Louis and Madi cuddled up on the loveseat, Niall and I were wrapped up in a blanket on the floor, Zayn and Lauren laid out on the couch, and Kayla and Liam were in eachother's arms on the lazy chair. Harry came in with a big blue bowl of popcorn while he was wrapped in a blanket. Only a blanket. We thanked him as he set it down in front of Niall and me on the floor. Again, he felt lonely and went to find a cuddle buddy, so he sat by Lauren.

"Eughh, no thanks, Harry." she said while Harry tried to embrace her in his arms. He laughed.

"Don't fight the love!" He said jokingly. Liam threw popcorn at them while Zayn constantly slapped Harry's hand away from her. Lauren pretty much wrestled Harry off. He crossed his arms.

"Fine." Harry gave up, and shoved a handfull of popcorn in his mouth. He refused to leave the couch though. He just stayed on the opposite side of Lauren and Zayn. The previews finally ended, and the movie started.

I closed my eyes as the movie ended, still gripping Niall's shirt and sobbing into his chest. The room was filled with tears and sniffles. We were pathetic messes. Harry got up and turned the lights on, revealing the crying-cuddly fest.

Zayn quickly wiped away a tear, hiding any evidence that he was crying. All the girls were bawling into the person nearest to them. Liam was crying unconditionally while he sprawled out on the carpet.

I looked up at Niall's face. He was crying, too. A small part of me died inside. Seeing Niall cry was absoloutly heartbreaking. It all reminded me of the signing...and Lauren. But since Niall forgave her, I did too. He looked back at me, and we both laughed at how pitiful we looked. It was a train wreck. He hugged me tighter and kissed my the top of my head.

As I looked back at the scene, I heard a loud gasp for air. It sounded like an extreme crying fest over there. My attention turned towards the noise, but only to find Louis laughing his head off. All of us stopped crying, and we watched Louis curiously.

"What's s-so funny?" Kayla sobbed, wiping away a tear. Liam curled up in fetal position while he gripped Kayla's hands. He let out a loud sob. Sweet little Liam. He was such a sensitive sweetheart. He was pretty much all the nice 's' words.

"'Don't let go!' 'I promise I won't!'" Louis quoted with silly voices. He started laughing histerically. "But she let go after he died!" Louis busted out. This caused me to cry harder. That was the saddest part of the movie. I lost it.

"Why did she have to let go?" I cried into Niall's shirt. He started crying harder too.

After about a half hour, most of us had put ourselves together. Liam and I were still bawling, though. While everyone was encircled in a group talking, Liam and I cuddled and cried together silently for about fifteen minutes. It was a good bonding experience. We chatted for a bit while he studied the ring pop on my finger. I forgot about that, but taking notice to it brought butterflies to my stomach.

"What's that?" he asked. I blushed.

"A ring pop." I responded innocently. He furrowed his eyebrows.

"Where did you get it?"

I bit my lip. I didn't think I should tell him yet. I glanced at Niall, who was laughing too much to notice Liam and me. I sighed and gave up.
