4Louis's POV)

We all flinched when she slammed her bedroom door shut and stood there for a minute. Then we walked out on the porch to see Liam in tears, but not saying a word.

" Liam? You okay?" Niall asked gently, as we slowly walked towards him.

" She said she hates me." Liam cried.

I walked over to him, pulling him into a hug causing him to sob into my shirt.

" How could I be so stupid! I left her, hurt her, and expected her to be okay and give me her trust." Liam cried.

I didn't say anything but hold on tighter, not caring that my shirt was getting wet. Suddenly, Niall sat besides me and nudged me with his hand.

" Let me take him, and you can talk to Sarah." Niall whispered.

I wanted to tell him no, but I didn't want to start arguing while Liam was balling his eyes out. So I nodded and slowly had Niall take a hold of Liam, then walked inside.

" I have no idea how I'm going to be able to talk to her." I thought to myself.

Finally I reached her door, and took a deep breath. I knocked the door twice and spoke up.

" Sarah? It's me, Louis. Open up, love." I said gently.

I could hear Sarah sob on the other side of the door, making my stomach sink.

" I don't want to talk to anyone. Go away. You took him away from me." Sarah sobbed.

I sighed and leaned against her door.

" I'm just going to stand here all night till you let me in and stay there while you cry, because I bet you need someone right now." I said.

Suddenly the sobbing stopped and I could hear her slowly walk towards the door. I leaned off the door and watched as she slowly opened her door. I felt like crying myself, seeing how hurt and torn she looked right now.

" How did you know I wanted someone?" She asked nervously, her voice cracking at the end.

I shrugged and looked down at my feet then back at her.

" I just know that whenever I'm upset, I would much rather have someone to be there till I stopped crying." I admitted.

Sarah stood there for a minuet, as if trying to figure out if I was telling the truth or not. Then she stood back to let me in. I walked in and watched as she slowly closed the door behind me. We stood there for a minute, in silence when I noticed big fat tears starting to fall.

" Come here." I said, sitting down on her bed, patting the spot next to me.

Sarah nodded and walked over to me. She sat down next to me and I pulled her into my chest as she began crying again. The room was quiet, only filled with the sounds of her cries. Suddenly I got an idea to calm her down.

" If I don't say this now

I will surely break

As I'm leaving

The one I want to take

Forgive the urgency

but hurry up and wait

My heart has started to

Separate

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Be my baby

Oh oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Be my baby

and I'll look after you

There now, steady love

So few come and don't go

Will you won't you

Be the one

I'll always know

When I'm losing

my control

the city spins around

You're the only one who knows

You'll slow it down

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Be my baby

oh oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Be my baby

And I'll look after to you

And I'll look after you

After you."

I sang the last note and looked down to Sarah and was startled to see her looking up at me.

Sarah's POV)

His voice was beautiful. It immediately helped me calm down. Suddenly Louis looked down at me. I smiled.

" That was beautiful Louis." I said.

Louis smiled and blushed.

" You really think so?" Louis asked shyly.

I nodded and smiled up at him.

" It was. The second I heard you sing it helped me." I admitted truthfully.

Louis looked back down at me and smiled.

" Well I'm glad of assistance, love." Louis said cheekily.

I smiled then suddenly remembered why he was up here in the first place. Suddenly the tears came back and began falling down softly. I closed my eyes and kept wishing I could go back in time and figure a way to not come here. Suddenly a soft hand cupped my cheek and began wiping the tears away. I opened my eyes and saw Louis looking at me sadly.

" You don't deserve this pain, Sarah." Louis whispered.

I shook my head and buried my head onto his lap.

" What did I do?" I cried.

Suddenly I felt Louis lift me up to look up at him. His blue eyes searched through my own with concern.

" What do you mean, what did you do?" Louis asked.

" I mean that I must have done something to have him never talk to me.. I just don't understand what I did to drive him away." I cried.

Louis shook his head and put both of his hands on my cheek to make sure that I looked at him.

" Sarah, I-I don't know what other way to say this but you did nothing. Back during the X-Factor when we first got into the group. You were all Liam ever talked about. He was constantly worried about you. He tried to contact you a couple of times but the managers said we weren't allowed to contact any of our family till it was over. And he was so upset about it, but he didn't want to risk all of our chances. But I don't understand why he didn't contact you after either. It makes no sense. But the way he talked about you, I almost felt like I knew you personally. But you, personally did nothing wrong. It was him, all him an not you alright?" Louis said seriously.

I nodded and he pulled me into another hug.

" Louis? Can I ask you something?" I asked my voice cracking.

" Anything, love." Louis replied, making me smile.

" Will you stay with me tonight till I fall asleep?" I asked, embarrassed about asking.

Louis smiled and we cuddled onto my bed. That night I cried myself to sleep, with a new friend holding me.
