22 Times [Liam Payne]

9 Times

~"We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly."~

Chapter 9

Liam's POV

The fan didn't answer me, so I made sure she didn't faint while being on the phone with me, "Hello?" I tried not to sound awkward; I didn't feel too good after to see fans fainting on front of me. It made me feel guilty.

"Hi Liam, I'm a massive directioner." I froze with widen eyes; it was my turn to be silent. The radio station was silent and I just stared at the buttons to the music.

You thought I was dumb enough to believe you, eh Francis?

Back at the school days, Francis and I took drama class together and she sucked at being an actress. I wasn't stupid; I did recognize her voice through the phone and no fan could talk to me with such a passive behavior.

"Thank you so much for supporting us babe! What's your question?" I managed to say and let out a breath I was holding in.

I heard her take a deep breath before replying, "Have you found the right girl?"

I knitted my eyebrows and stared at the phone, why was Francis asking this? Now I started to doubt if this was really Francis or just a normal fan asking about my love life. The question was still waiting to be answered and it took awhile for a reply.

Did I find the right girl already? Have I found the girl who could move the world for me no matter what, who loves me back and doesn't treat me like shit, who likes me for who I am and not for One Direction? That's the toughest question of the day, because I don't know if I found her.

What about Francis?

She rejected me lots of times and maybe it was because we were ignorant teenagers, but it still hurt. Now she's coming back with no reason, I'm still waiting to know why she rejected me and why now she 'wants' to be with me, which it gets me all confused because she won't pay attention to me. Is she in love with Niall or what the hell is going on?

"Yes, I found her." I answered truthfully, I found her because she's the one I want to be with since the beginning - all the cheesiness to the side, Liam. "But I don't know if she found me."

There was a silent pause before I heard her say, "Thanks Liam for answering my question." There was no humor in her voice, it was just dead.

"Bye" I answered coldly.

I hung up first without hesitating, "Francis, man. What are you doing to me?"

After a couple of questions and songs, the hour passed by, "This is 1DHQ in the Hits radio, to finish this afternoon this is Kiss You, I'm Liam Payne from One Direction, thanks for your company, I'll see you very soon. 1DHQ will be back next week!" I let the music play and I made a sign to a man to put me off-air.

"Great job, lad." One of the audio producers called, "See you soon, eh?"

"Yeah of course, thanks for having me!" We gave each other a manly hug, patting our back and then I headed outside. I yawned quietly and checked the watch in my left wrist; it was 12Pm in the afternoon. I'm going home. Just when I walked up to my car my phone vibrated signaling I received a message.

- You're stupid if you thought that was really a fan. Francis found the right boy and that boy is you. x Niall.
