( Jordy's POV )

Luke and I hurried to the headquarters. He wasn't talking. He just kept on walking fast, his eyes fixed on the ground. This is definitely not a good thing. I was so scared.

We arrived at the headquarters minutes later. Liam was waiting for us. We walked over to him. "Here we are." Luke said. "Thank goodness!" Liam sighed in relief. He thanked Luke and turned to me. His sorry eyes broke my heart. I can tell that he's too worried. But why? I asked him, "What's wrong?" "I'd rather have management tell you. Let's go." he replied. "You okay here, man?" he asked Luke. "Yeah, yeah I'm fine." Luke reassured Liam. We left him and took the elevator. 

"Am I in trouble?" I asked Liam. He looked at me and patted my cheek lightly. "No honey, we've got your back." And then he smiled sweetly at me. The elevator door went open. Louis and Zayn were standing outside a huge door. Worry is painted all over their faces. They greeted me. "Where's Harry?" Liam asked. "He went in with Niall." Louis answered. "Come inside, luv." Zayn opened the huge door for me. "Liam..." I looked at him, my voice was shaking. "I can't go, Jordy. We'll be here. Don't worry." and he gave me a hug. 

I let out a deep, heavy breath and walked inside. I can hear murmurs. I followed the voices. I found myself peeping through a glass door. I saw Niall and Harry sitting in front of a man wearing a suit. They were facing the other way so they can't really see me. Niall and Harry were discussing among themselves. The man in a suit saw me but didn't say a thing.

"Don't say it!" Harry warned Niall. "Jordy's just a fan." Niall said. My heart shattered into pieces. My tears ran down my face uncontrollably. "Niall!" Harry yelled. "Go tell the press then." the man said and he looked at me. "I will. Don't worry." Niall replied. The man looked at me and smirked. I ran off.

It's as if my heart stopped beating. The air seemed to get thin. I was barely breathing. My eyes are soaked. My crying was loud and rough. "Jordy!" Zayn shouted. I didn't mind him. I rushed to the elevator. They were chasing me. I immediately closed the door. 

I got off on the ground floor. I was still crying hard. Luke saw me and called my name, "Jordy!" I didn't turn around. I ran out of the headquarters. The cold breeze made it worse for me. I was shivering. I didn't mind it. I can't stop myself from crying. I kept on running. "Jordy's just a fan." I don't even know why that surprised me. Why did I even assume that somehow he liked me? 

This is just like what I felt when I saw Luke kissing another girl last summer. I want to disappear. I want to go far away from here and never look back. But I can't do that. I can't just leave, not again. We're gonna go back to America tomorrow anyway. But for now, I want to run away from all this. I don't know where I'm heading but it doesn't matter, I want to be alone.

( Niall's POV ) 

"Niall, can you please explain this?" Mr. Smith from management, asked me. He showed a video clip of me and Jordy kissing last night. "And this..." he laid a photo on the table. It was still from last night. "Why do you even care? It's Niall's personal life." Harry said. "It's okay, Harry. You want the truth? I haven't known her for a long time but I think I'm in love with--" "I don't care if you're in love with this girl or not. Everybody knows you're single. And then they see you snogging in public! You're putting the band's name at risk! What will people say? You've got an image to protect, Niall!" Mr. Smith told me. "Sorry I put the band in trouble." "Niall, don't apologize. Let's not overreact, okay. He didn't put--" Mr. Smith interrupted Harry, "Tell everyone she's just a fan or we will not release the music video you just made." "That's not fair!" Harry exclaimed. "Bullshit..." I said. "Your choice." Mr. Smith simply said.

"Niall, you don't have to do this." Harry said to me. "Everybody worked hard for that video. It would be such a waste. I just have to explain everything to Jordy. I'm sure she'll understand." I told him. "Don't say it!" Harry warned me. "Jordy's just a fan." I said. "Niall!" Harry yelled. I just looked at him. "Go tell the press then." Mr. Smith told me. "I will. Don't worry." I replied. "You can leave now." he smirked. 

Harry and I took off. We saw Jordy running as fast as she can. She was crying really loud and hard. "I think she heard you." Harry said. We chased her. "Jordy!" Zayn shouted. "What happened?!" Louis asked. "We think she heard Niall say she was just a fan." Harry answered. "Oh no..." Liam said. "Let's go!" I told them. 

We got out of the headquarters. We heard a screeching noise and a mad honk. "Jordy!" We heard Luke yell. "What was that?!" I said. Luke sounded distressed. I got nervous. There was a small group of by-passers across the street. We hurried to check out what happened.

"Excuse me...'cuse me..." I couldn't find the boys because of the crowd that was slowly building up. Suddenly, Louis stopped me. "Niall..." "Louis!" "Call an ambulance!" I heard someone say. I tried to walk past Louis but he didn't let me. "Niall, stay here. Everything's gonna be fine." Louis told me. "Louis, let me through!" I saw Harry on his phone. Zayn was running around. "Zayn! Zayn! What happened?!" He just looked at me, his eyes were dull. Liam called, "Louis!" I took this chance and escaped his grip. "Niall!"

A car's front lights were smashed. I saw Luke crying, sitting on the ground with Jordy's head on his lap. He was shaking and so was I. My world stopped. She was unconscious. There were blood stains all over. I fell to my knees. An ambulance came and took her. I was speechless. I didn't know what to do. Louis drove us to the hospital. All curled up in my seat, I cried my eyes out. "This is all my fault!" I shouted.
