Lea's POV

The next few hours went by quickly.

When I arrived back at the hotel with my bags everyone else was already moving down to the lobby. They had apparently decided to switch to an earlier flight because things had gotten to crazy outside the hotel, which I had experienced first hand when trying to get in. We ended up going out through the back door and into a waiting van. The ride was unusually quite. Abbey and Harry fell asleep, Liam was sitting next to Louis looking like he wanted to cry and Niall sat upfront looking equally upset. Zayn and I were the only ones that occasionally spoke. You could feel the tension in the van.

Before I knew it we were at the airport and being ushered on the plane. Abbey stuck near Harry and Niall walked ahead with Louis while Liam trailed behind alone. While I hadn't actually known the boys for that long I had been in the fandom long enough to know that Liam and Niall stuck together like glue. When we were seated on the plane I liked around to see where everyone was. Niall was in the back by himself while everyone else was seated toward the front. Now five hours into the 18 hour flight still nothing had been said about it. I frowned. Something had to be up with Niall. I never had the chance to talk with him at the hotel though, but if I had to guess something happened between him and Liam. I tapped on Zayn's leg.

"Mhm?" He said looking at me.

"Do you think something's up between Liam and Niall?"

"What do you mean?" He said looking confused.

"Well ever since we got in the van Liam's looked like he wanted cry and Niall looks torn between upset and pissed off. They haven't even walked together let alone even looked at each other. And before I got back to the hotel Niall texted me saying that he was freaking out and needed to talk to me. Did he say anything to you?" I asked looking at him.

"No. Not that I remember. We were all pretty busy packing everything up to leave. Why don't you just go back and talk to him?"

"Good idea. I guess that's what I'll do." I said getting up and squeezing past Zayn. I walked to the back of the plane and sat down next to Niall. He didn't even look over as I sat down. "Hey," I said tapping his shoulder. "Things got a little crazy back at the hotel. What did you need to talk to me about?"

"Nothing. Just go away." He said still looking out the window.

I put my hand on his shoulder and he turned to face me. "No. I'm not going to leave. You've seemed upset ever since we left the hotel. What happened?"

"I don't know if I should tell you now." He said looking down.

I sighed. "Look Niall. I know we don't really know each other but you can tell me. I'm not going to think any different of you." I said smiling at him.

"Something happened between me and Liam."

"I figured that. Liam looks like he wants cry. What happened? Just tell me."

"Fine. Liam...Liam told me he loves me. And then he kissed me. And I... I kissed him back." He said burying his face in his hands.

I just stared at him shocked. I never guessed it would be something like this. I mean we all joked about this stuff on twitter but I don't think any of the fans actually thought it would ever happen. "Niall, stop crying. It's okay. Just tell me what happened after."
