Learning To Love Again {Liam Payne}

Separeation and lies

~Abby's POV~

It took me a second after I realized who it was standing infront of me, until I answered her.

"Um, well I was just going to ask Liam of he had my phone because I can't find it."

"Oh, why would he have your phone?" she asked. She wasn't rude, just more like she didn't know what to think of me yet.

"I ran into him this morning at the pool and didn't know if he saw me leave my phone, or if he grabbed it or something" I said trying not to say the wrong thing and cause drama for them.

"Oh well he is in the shower, but if you want to come look around you can." she said and opened the door slightly for me to come it.

"Okay" I was really hesitant.

I looked around the massive hotel room and couldn't find it. After 10 minutes I heard a door open and I made my way back to the sitting room area.

"Hey Danielle, I was thinking, what if we went to dinner toni- Abby?" he questioned as I came around the corner.

"Hi. have you seen my phone? I can't find it." I asked.

"Um I haven't. I'm sorry. Have you checked by the pool?" He asked as Danielle walked up beside him and took his hand.

Ouch.

It started getting awkward for me to be here. "No but I will. Probably would have been smart to check there first. Well, I'll leave you guys to have fun. bye!" I faked a smile and walked out quickly.

Honesty seeing them hold hands kind of hurt. I'm still not sure how I feel about him, but it doesn't mmatter. He has Danielle.

I walked back into the room and noticed Claire and Tori were gone. On the counter was a note.

'Harry and Niall asked up to hang out! I'm sorry we are ditching you but you have Liam (; have fun! be safe!

-Claire and Tori'

That's we're she is wrong. I don't have Liam. Liam has Danielle and once again, I'm right. Even though I wish I wasn't.

~Tori's POV~

Shortly after Abby walked out of the door, I began to regret asking about her mom, or if she had talked to her dad.

I feel awful because I know she hates talking about it but sometimes I just forget these things.

Claire finally came out of the shower with a huge smile on her face.

"Okay, what happened?" I knew it was about a guy.

"Harry just asked if we wanted to go hang with him for a little while!" She beamed and looked back at her phone.

"Um definitely not. I don't want to be a third wheel." I smiled then walked to the couch.

"So instead, your going to sit here, alone I might add, and eat h movies that you never actually end up watching because you hate them? Good choice!" She said sarcasticlly.

"Yes I would. Now go!" I turned on the tv and sat in silence. No way in hell I'm going. I don't care who will be there!

"Plus, you wouldn't be a third wheel. Niall would be there" she stars simply.

"Soooo I'll be ready in 10 minutes." I ran to the room and changed into shorts and a tank top.

When I came out, Claire was laughing and I realized the guys were here.

"We should tell Abby." I said.

"Just text her. Come on!" Harry rushed us.

"No! We can't. She can't find her phone." I said back.

"Oh well then, leave a note!" Niall suggested.

"Good idea Niall!" I said and poked his cheek.

Claire and I wrote a note and left the room.

"I hope she finds her phone." Claire said as we got into the elevator.

"Yeah me too. So what are we doing today?" I asked.

"Shopping!!" Harry said taking Claire's hand.

Awww that's cute!

I thought to myself as we existed the elevator. This should be a fun day.

~Liam's POV~

While I was in the shower, I realized that distance was keeping Danielle and I apart, but she is here now, making more of an effort that I have seen in a while.

Maybe this could work. To test my theory, I will ask her to dinner and we can talk. That way I can see how much I really do miss of her life when I'm gone.

When I saw Abby in the hotel room, I froze. oh gosh. She definitely has met Danielle now. what had she said?

Has Danielle been mean to her or something? She looks almost...scared?

Once she said she lost her phone, I remembered that I didn't see it at breakfast so I suggested she check the pool.

At that moment Danielle came and grabbed my hand. Abby's eyes drifted down then snapped back up.

She then said a quick bye and darted out of the door.

That was weird...

*4 days later*

Danielle and I decided to eat out again tonight, like every night since she has been here. I realized I do miss a lot in her life, but that gives us so much to talk about when we get to see each other. We haven't have a silent moment since she has been here.

I felt like things rekindled between us but at the same time, I couldn't help compare some things she did, to the way Abby would have done it or said it. You see, after she came to look for her phone that day that Danielle was there, I haven't seen her much. I feel bad though because I pretty much told her I was thinking about her to the point I couldn't sleep, and led her to believe I liked her, only to ditch her when my girlfriend shows up.

The truth is, I wasn't ditching her. I thought about her all the time.. I wanted to talk to her but I didn't want to start drama.

I know that's so wrong. And I shouldn't have just kind of blown her off because of that but I wasn't thinking.

Once I paid for our meal, Danielle and I headed to the car. On the way there I received a text from Louis saying that El was able to come out and visit so we were having a movie night in my room in an hour.

I informed Danielle and we got into the car to head back.

"You were awful quiet at dinner. Are you okay?" She asked, sounding a little concerned.

"Yeah I'm fine" I reassured her. "Just a lot on my mind and stuff lately."

'Yeah like the fact you might have blown your chances with a girl much better than Danielle' My sub conscience comments. Ugh go away.

Once we made it back, Danielle and I changed clothes and got the room ready for everyone.

Right as I turned on the tv, everyone busted through the door. we greeted everyone as they gathered around on the couches.

Niall and Tori sat on the floor. Claire, Harry, El, and Louis took the big couch, and Zayn took the big chair. which only left the love seat, only nade for two, open for Danielle and I. Then I noticed someone missing.

Abby.

After I noticed she was missing, Danielle said we needed another bag of popcorn. We wentdown to the lobby to see if they had any. Lucky for us they did.

On our way up the elevator Danielle asked a really unexpected question.

"Have you been thinking about that Abby girl today? Is that why you haven't talked too much?" Yes that exactly why. I can't tell her that though.

We walked off the elevator and I gabbed her hand.

"No it's not. Abby is just a friend. I don't see her as anything else. I don't have feelings for her. When I told you we met at the pool, I didn't know she was going to be there. It meant nothing" That's the biggest lie I have ever told. I'm so stupid.
