It's Got To Be You

Hanging Out with Mom

Sophie's P.O.V.

"When did the boys say they would be here?" My mom asked. Since they agreed to come over here and hang out with Natalie, my mom, and I, my mom can't be quiet about it. She is so anxious it's almost like she's a fangirl meeting her favorite band or singer for the first time.

"They should be here any-" I was cut off by a knock on the door. "Now." I walked over to the door to answer it. I opened the door and saw everyone there. I welcomed them all in and they each found somewhere to sit since it is just a simple little hotel room. Surprisingly it wasn't crowded at all. Louis and Eleanor were sharing the chair that was in the corner of the room. Harry and Zayn had sat down on Natalie and Michel's bed and Liam occupied mine and my mom's bed.

I stood next to my mom to introduce her to everyone. "Ok. Well I think it's about tome to introduce everyone. Mom over there is Louis and Eleanor. Right there is Harry and Zayn and here is Liam."

"Well, it's nice to meet you all. I'm Sophie's mom, Mandie. You can call me Mandie or Mom." Somehow Louis had managed to push Eleanor off of him without knocking her down and ran across the little room to tackle my mom in a hug.

"Yay! A mom away from home! Please tell me you can make good homecooked meals?" Louis said looking at her pleadingly.

"Yes I can, but I don't have anything to do that here. When you guys come back to America and you are in the area you can stop by and I'll make you a great home cooked meal." My mom said. All the boys grew very excited, and soon they were all hugging her. Liam was the only one who stayed seated.

"See I told you my mom was awesome." I said to him after I took a seat next to him.

"Yes.You were right. Your mom is pretty awesome. I'll definatley be looking forward to that home cooked meal in America." Liam said.

"Do you think your mom will be jealous or happy that you can have a home away from home?" I asked him.

"That's tough. Umm, I think both. She will be a little jealous that someone else is making me home cooked meals while she can't but I think she will be happy as well to know that I can have a home away from home." He said smiling.

I just sit there admiring him and the other boys. It has to be hard on them with not being able to be at home all the time with their families. I mean I'm so lucky! I get to see my mom almost all the time and the most the boys get to do is talk to them on the phone. I can see in Liam's eyes after our conversation how much he misses his mom. I put my hand over his to show that I'm here for him.

I stand up to go see what everyone wants to do but before I can go very far Liam grabs my hand and pulls me into a hug. He is still sitting and I'm standing in front of him. We stay there hugging for a few seconds and just before I go to let go of him he holds onto me tighter. I then start to worry if he's ok. I mean maybe bringing up the mom subject wasn't such a good idea.

"Li are you ok?" I ask and he just nods his head while still holding on to me.

"Don't lie to me Liam." I say as I try to pull away but he has like a death grip on me. I finally pull away and that's when I see a tear roll down his cheek. "Liam. Are you crying?"

"Yes I'm crying ok." He said looking away.

"Oh my gosh. Is it because of the mom thing? I'm sorry I shouldn't have said anything. I'm so sorry." I say grabbing him into a hug again. Only then is when I notice that everyone stopped talking and is now looking worriedly in our direction.

"Umm, Harry. Why don't you and the boys take my mom and Natalie somewhere to get food and Liam and I will meet up with you guys in a few minutes. I said something that upset him and its best if I'm here for him right now. We'll find you guys in a few minutes, ok?" I say.
