"You promised, Niall!"

Tears filled Liam's eyes as he stared at the younger boy in front of him.

"Liam, it's not that easy," Niall sighed.

"Yes! It is! You promised I wouldn't have to see you with anymore publicity stunts. Ellie was supposed to be the last one!"

Liam didn't want to be fighting with Niall right now, he really didn't. But he couldn't help it that some fan had asked him today how he felt about Niall and Barbara's new relationship.

At first he had laughed because, what? Then the fan, bless her heart, proceeded to show him recent pictures and articles about the two being together, Barbara even confirming it, and Liam can't lie, his heart was shattered.

It's not so much the pictures and articles that hurt him, it's more of the fact that they were supposed to be past this. No more publicity stunts. Or so he thought.

"I don't have a choice, Li."

"Bullshit!" Liam seethed. "You always have a choice! You can say no and they'll accept it."

Once Liam says the words, his eyes widen. Because shit.

"You didn't say no," he whispers. "You wanted this."

"Li-" Niall tries, but he's quick to cut him off.

"No! What the fuck, Niall? What the hell is wrong with you?"

Something flashes in Niall's eyes and almost immediately he's yelling back at Liam, shocking the boy since he was so calm only seconds ago.

"You have some nerve, Liam, you really do." Liam opens his mouth, but before he can even get the words outs, Niall cuts him off. "How do you think I feel, huh? I've watched you parade around your perfect little relationship for years. Years! I've handled it pretty good, I think, but the minute you see an article about me and a girl, you flip shit! How is that fair?"

Liam wants to say something, wants to yell, wants to comfort Niall, but he can't. He's frozen.

"Do you think I want this?" Niall sobs out. "Do you think I like being linked with every girl I talk to? I don't. But how is it fair that you get me, and you also get the perfect relationship you've always wanted?" There's that damn word again.

"Perfect?" Liam gasps out. "What are you even talking about?"

Niall simply scoffs. "Let's not play dumb anymore, okay? You've had me here, on the sidelines for four years. I'm here when you come home from a late night out with her. I'm here when you're drunk off your ass, wanting someone to fuck. You call me up, and I'm always here." His eyes soften, leaving the rage behind. "I'm here when you've been bashed publicly and need someone to cry to. I'm here when you mess up a solo and feel like you're not good enough, but you know something, Li? Where are you when I need you?"
