“And now for our final guests of the evening, I can’t believe this is even happening… they were meant to last forever!” Alan lamented as he introduced the boys.

“The one, the only, ONE DIRECTION!”

The audience was on their feet before Alan had even finished speaking, the screams in the studio errupting to ear splitting levels. The five familiar faces jogged down the stairs, embracing Alan one by one before taking their places on the sofa.

Harry smiled quickly at the audience before turning his gaze to the floor as the other boys seated themselves and waited for Alan to start.

“Now, as you know by now, this is the part where we have a little drink and with the way things are tonight I thought we’d hit the hard stuff.” Alan quirked, opening the lid on the drinks cabinet beside his chair. He pulled out a bottle of absinthe; Liam’s eyes went wide.

“I’m not entirely sure it’s legal to do that on TV is it Alan?” Niall snorted from where he was wedged between Liam and Zayn.

“Probably not, don’t think the lawyers even knew about this to be fair, but what the hell, it’s not every day the biggest boyband in the universe splits up is it?” Alan huffed, setting out five glasses in front of each of them. He poured the luminous green liquid into each glass before looking at them expectantly.

“Well lads, all in?” Zayn smiled, picking up his glass and clinking it with Liam’s. The camera panned in on their faces as they each swigged back the vile drink. Louis choked back a laugh as he set his glass back on the table, clapping Harry on the back as he struggled to swallow the stuff. As the audience applause died down, Alan leant forward in his seat, a rarely-seen serious expression on his face.

“Now boys, as the world probably knows, you announced your split earlier on in the week and it’s had a devastating affect on the fan base. The statement from your website was so vague, what’s the real reason you’re disbanding?”

As the boys glanced awkwardly between each other, Liam cleared his throat.

“It sounds corny but we genuinely feel like we’ve come to the end of the line with the band. We’ve given everything to it, we’ve surpassed every expectation we ever had. Every single dream we ever had about this career has come true. The fans have been fiercely loyal and have always shown us the truest love and support…We’ve been-“

Zayn eyes shot across to Liam as his voice cracked and he dug his finger tips into his eyes. His snuffled hard as Louis’ arm came around his shoulders and pulled him in.

“We love you Liam!” Came a shout from the crowd as a few more applauded.

Liam lifted his tear-stained gaze to the crowd and nodded timidly before puffing out the air in his cheeks and composing himself.

“Phew, sorry… It’s just very emotional to be turning our backs on something we’ve worked so hard on.”

Alan nodded sympathetically, allowing the boys the room to continue.

“I think we’re just scared of what’s going to happen now.” Harry stated blankly.

“Yeah, we’ve been so used to touring, singing, travelling and everything else; that we’re scared it’ll all just stop now. This is all we’ve known for ten years and it all stops… today.” Louis croaked, trying hard to keep his own emotions in check. Liam squeezed his thigh in return.
