Chapter 19:

Francis' POV

"Wakey, wakey, baby." A smooth voice tickled my ear. I giggled and hid my head with the duvet and rolled over to the other side of the bed.

I felt like I was in heaven, not only because this was a comfortable bed, it was because Liam never let me go. It wasn't the first time we slept together, but I have to admit that the first time was better. I still remember that night; loved how Liam cheered me up and took my mind away from the thunders.

"Five more hours" Liam chuckled at that and forcibly grabbed the duvet and swap it off me. Cold air hit my legs and I reached for it again, but Liam playfully slapped my hand.

"You're going to be late for work and so am I. Your stuff is in the bathroom, get ready and go downstairs. I made you breakfast." He said with a strict voice but then he kissed sweetly on my lips. I didn't answer him since I didn't feel confident with my morning breath.

After getting ready, I skipped downstairs with a huge smile. I mean who wouldn't smile after sleeping with Liam? I saw Niall fixing his jeans before continuing eating his bowl of cereal. I stepped into the the kitchen and greeted, making me jump surprised.

"Good morning, love." Niall said with a mouthful, "You look happy, you're not leaving to Los Angeles?"

Oh right, I almost forgot. Thank you for reminding me, I feel like crying now.

"I was happy. Liam makes me happy." I sat on the table next to him.

"I'm happy that you're happy." Niall grinned, "You make Liam really happy too."

"You're not mad at me because I..."

"Not at all. But yeah, I'm still hurt because is hard to lose something you never had, but if you're happy I'm happy. Liam and you are meant for each other, I noticed." Niall said and swallowed, "I know my love is about to come. If she doesn't appear, then she was aborted. For now, I'll be a carefree motherfucker."

I laughed and hugged him, "I'm gonna miss you, dumb leprechaun."

"Haha" He laughed and hugged back. "Me too, stupid."

I inhaled his sweet scent and pulled away. He deserves someone special - not Mia, what was he thinking? If he wants to date a fan, he better dates a normal one because I'm sure Mia would use him for fame and stuff.

"Francis, eat you're almost late!" I heard Liam shout.

"Oh!" I stood up to get my food.

There was not point on going to work, I was leaving anyways so I don't care if I get fired. All I know that when I get back, I'm gonna pack my stuff and walk a bit around in London. Los Angeles didn't sound bad, but I'm afraid I'd lose my accent, or fall in love with an American. Okay, no. That will never happen.

"Eleanooooooor" I singsonged and walked into the room where I used to take pictures of the models. I sat down on a chair and grabbed a camera. I'm so gonna miss work.

A minute later, Eleanor appeared with Alexander. Mia was behind him and I almost roll my eyes, is she now part of the gang?

"Yeah?"

"Since Alexander and Mia are here, I need to tell you something." They sat next to me on the loveseat, they were wearing worried expressions.

"Spit it out." Alexander raised an eyebrow.

"I'm moving to California. My parents are forcing me to because they found a job there..." I trailed off when I see Eleanor opening her mouth to speak.

"What about Liam? What about us?"

"I'm sorry!"

"Wait... Liam? Is Liam your boyfriend?" Mia squealed. She was taking her phone out, possibly to tweet this.

"Didn't you tell her that you were the one who rejected him twenty two times?" Eleanor asked. Alexander snorted.

"I'm overwhelmed." Mia grabbed her chest.

I rolled my eyes, "Like I was saying, I'm leaving Friday so I'm gonna miss you guys."

"Today is Tuesday, we still have a lot of time to hang out together, right? I'm gonna miss you." Eleanor was about to cry.

"OH MY GOD. My boyfriend had an accident." Mia said standing up and reading her phone, "His brother just texted me."

"Who's your boyfriend?" I asked. Mia has a boyfriend?

"Connor, you don't know him." I nodded. "He's on the hospital, he broke his leg. Please go with me to the hospital?"

Eleanor, Alexander and I just shrugged, "Okay."

Liam hasn't texted, our last text was after he drove me to work 'Love you babe, I'm in the studiooo :)' it's been hours and I missed him already.

The smell of sanitizer gave me an headache so I decided to leave Mia and Alexander in the waiting room while Eleanor and I went to get something on the candy machine. We walked into the elevator and started dancing like crazy until the elevator stopped and opened, we didn't notice and we kept dancing. We stopped when we heard a couple of people laugh at us.

"Well this is embarrassing." Eleanor laughed and we continued our way to get our candy.

After getting bubblegum and lollipops we got into the elevator again, but we didn't dance this time.

"Which floor was it?" I asked, looking at the buttons. Eleanor shrugged and pushed a button randomly. When the elevator opened we walked out and walked through the halls absolutely lost.

"I guess this wasn't the floor - oh wait, I think this is the room." Eleanor grabbed the doorknob and pushed the door open. I was behind her, we stepped inside.

"Oh no, this is not the room sorry if we-" Eleanor paused and I looked at her before looking at... Liam?

The boys were sat on the sofa, looking at us with a surprised look.

"What happened?" I asked walking over to Liam, who was on the bed with bruised cheeks, lips and eyes. Blood was coming down his knuckles as the doctor tried to look at them.

"Your boyfriend had a fight with the paparazzi." Louis said crossing his arms against his chest.

"Are you crazy?!" I went to touch his face but the doctor shook his head as in Don't touch him.

"I was mad okay? He was pissing me off." Liam whimpered when the doctor pressed his hand on his bruised cheek.

"Why are you here anyway?" Zayn asked, but he didn't sound rude.

"My friend's boyfriend had an accident so she asked us if we could be with her..." I replied.

"Well isn't this a coincidence." Niall laughed.

I rolled my eyes, I was too annoyed by this.
