loving on the line

chapter 15

Maceys cheecks were burning with fury, how could Louis be so fucking insensitive. she was about to phone him and give Louis, heck, give all those boys a piece of her mind when she noticed Liv sitting in the coner with an amused look on her face. "what" she snapped. "young love" she teased. "what know its not...." shit who was she dating? Tom, of course "no, its not Tom its a friend" macey groaned. "ahhh alright" liv smiled, she loved getting on her little sisters nerves. "really macey why did you go with floral, its kinda last season" liv chuckled as she passed a magizine to her sister. maceys face twisted in unhappiness making her sister cringe, "mac, i was kidding it not th-" but macey wasnt listening her eyes had darted to an article below the fashion section.

'young love? or just a fling for macey'

her eyes darted down the page before landing on a group of photos of her and Tom at a cafe and then shopping. "these were taken months ago", liv stared at her sister but she new instanly she was talking to herself. "dam, i almost forgot, forgot that i was you know a, a, actresss" macey stammered. "hey mac, come on its not that bad the article mainly talks about how good you would be together, it doesnt even mention any of the one direction bo-" "why would it mention them" macey snapped angrily. "err well", "well what?! there my friends, okay? i have lots of friends just because there on top of the BLOODY world doesnt mean you can asume theres something going on". "macey no, i said it beacuse of the publicity you got last year, i meant it was good it had gone away, thats all" liv explained. macey felt a pang of guilt for yelling at her sister. it seemed like a life time ago that macey was being accused of using one direction to become famous. she tryed not to picture the nasty comments or the rumurs she was dating one of the boys. "sorry, its just its hard sometimes being in the spot light". "hey dont apoligese you've done a pretty goood job at sheilding me and all of our family from the paps and gossipi". Its hard to hate her, she is so amazingly talented, she is beautiful, and caring, smart, friendly and to top it off shes taking over the silver screen, liv couldn't help thinking, but in-spite all that liv new her sister was being a terrible girlfriend. sure shes had a lot going on but she treated Tom like dirt. it pained olivia to see tom trying despretly to support her, but macey kept pushing him away. he was amazing. "liv you alright" macey asked all the angier had left her face. "yeah no ofcourse, hows tom?" liv asked. "Fine, look at this photo" macey smiled showing her sister a pic of her and Tom "taken a few months ago, but still pretty dam cute". Liv winced at Maceys words somehow the two together made her guts churn, but why?

May 2012 maceys P.O.V

"You made the statement?" i ask. mary nodds. "Ahh and now the world knows" i exhails. "And thanks to us they only know so much!" Mary snaps. I blinks at Mary for a moment almost forgetting this girl wasn't a just a friends but employee. "I don't want to stay at the plaza for the premier, or what ever I'm going to next month, okay" i said with a hint of bitterness . "Very well, you're meeting with your personal trainer, dietitian and a doctor to discuss what course of action you will take in terms of getting fit again. You have several auditions in the next month and a publicity shoot for world vision." Mary replied with even more bitterness. "You're sick and we are giving you all the resources in the world to get back on your feet, but times ticking" Mary added more softly. "Sorry I'm being bitchy today" i huffed running my fingers through my hair, "I've seen a lot worse-" Alice walked in interrupting Mary "room four, conference, now! chop chop" Alice smiled, something's never change.

I found myself in a big room full of important people talking about me as though i wasnt there. "Her image has stayed steady, she's still up there but I think some sort of magizine cover, vogue has approached us, something uplifting and make her beautiful and natural Is in order" Luca said. "Yes natural, feminine, bold, CONFIDENT will be her new direction" Alice went on, with various other people interjecting and aurging about my future. When did my life become a game? I'm a star now, role model, business woman, actress, advertiser and a people pleaser but where is macey? I promised myself I would remain grounded, humble but more importantly ME! Not someone who's been manufactured into the perfect person, a share, a commodity, a dollar sign. I try to remember when one direction was just an obsession, and chilling with Franco and Tatum a silly dream, it's surreal no unimaginable to think these guys are my friends, that I'm in their league. Once upon a time it was fanfiction and tumblr, because shit this stuff doesn't happen to anyone! But this is my life now, ive worked for it since i could walk, and among numerous other things I've learnt, i know that, yeah we live in this fantasy world, but we are not all that different from normal people. We are addicted to dreams, not reality, wether it's fame or not we need this life to survive. It wreaks some of us and it makes others and okay. shit we are different, but some of us, like me, don't want to be.

"Macey" ms Linnies says drawing me back.

"We were talking about you making an appearance at Paris fashion week?" She persistes

"Look I'm no fashionista, yeah I have nice clothes but that's Alice's doing not mine! I want to be more real, more dangerous, more human. For starters I'm not selling myself for what $4 million to go in twilight, I have more class then that! I will not support cancer group for a publicity stunt. It will be mine own doing not yours, these kids deserve more then to be sold out so I can look good. Also I don't just want to look pretty and read off a script for world vision, I want to do real work, go to Uganda with the young ambassadors and visit the people" I take a breathe "just me, no big publicity behind it, just me, i shall post two maybe three photos on my twitter and Instagram and that's it. I'm doing it for them for the cause not to make me look good. Drew can come with his camera and that's it! Oh and I won't pretend I'm friends with anyone whom I am not, I won't fake a friendship for the paps! And I want more control over my twitter, okay?"

"She's demanding" Austin smiles (head of security) "she's a woman" Luca smiles. "No I'm a business woman" I retort. "Okay let's get down to it" ms Linnies says, and we begin to sort through the mass's of requests I have made.

Liam's P.O.V

"It's not to prissy?" I ask as we leave the third house today I've looked at. "No Liam it's not but the street is" Ruth smiles "should have brought andy or macey I'm horrible at this" she smiles. It's good to be home with my family and friends again. "Sooo what's the deal with dani?" She asks. "We broke up, payzer is no more" I sigh. "It was hard, on both of us, but we still friends." Ruth stares at me a gives me a faint smile. "When are you coming back to mums?" She asks thankfully changing the subject. "Next week, I think, I miss her but these a few more people I need to catch up with fist" I smile.

We are walking down an exclusive little street in inner London with lots of cafes when i spot macey. She's laughing, her hair pulled back in a tight pony, sunglasses on obviously trying to not be spotted. "Oui D mac" I shout. Her head swivels around to see me, immediately she gets up and gives me a tight hug. She was pissed to say the least and even more at our management when she found out what happend. I'm pretty sure she won't be seen with us for a long time because our managements had a massive augment over the matter. Macey forgave us really quickly though. "Liam" she breathes "oh and Ruth, nice to see you again" she says friendly to my sister. "Oh this is Tom, my boyfriend" she beams and introduces us to Tom who is siting opposite to her. "Liam, good to see you agian. And I take it this is your sister?" "Hi I'm Ruth" she stutters. I think Ruth's having a heart attack, I mean it is only Tom felton she's talking too, and Ruth's a massive potter head. "Hey I was meaning to tell you, zayns having a party, house warming for his new zen garden!" I inform her. "God that boy owns so bloody many houses" she laughs. "Yeah perrie sent and 'invite' out, anyone I know going?" Macey asks. "Ahh well perrie, I think jade, urm Harry's going, nialls in Ireland, Louis is with is family, err I think Alison's going and a few of zayns friends, ohh Cher Lloyd and matt will be there" "okay if cher's there then I'm sold" she giggles. "You going to come Tom?" She ask turning to him. "Err if you want, i'm sure i'll know someone there" he replies unsure. "Sweet, I'll see you Saturday then" I smile.

Harrys p.o.v

* "Here you go babe, the drinks on me" i smirk as i pass Emily a drink. "hmmm well how about the nexts one's on me" she wisperes returning my smirk. "i hope you meant that in the litural sences" i reply. "body shot" Emily tells the bar. i didnt plan to come here and getting laid but its so very tempting right now. i like to flirt and have a fun time with girls, maybe if Emily was a fan i meet at a concert i wouldnt offer for her to come back to my apartment but shes a felloW star, i hope she wont kiss and tell. * flashback over

Emily rolls over moving her annoying blonde hair out of my face. i cant help it if i need the odd blonde or brunette. im not a womanizer and it shits me up the wall when people asume that i am, but come on I am an 18 year old guy we have needs. plus if i was in university i would be doing a lot worse thats for sure. its nice though, to have a girl by myside, i want a girlfriend but no one should have to deal with a relationship with me. the fans, our crazy scheldule our managment and of course the hate. just look at liam and danni, it torn them apart and i know i would fuck it up way worse than liam. i try not shudder at my past relationships, hailey. i shake my head theying to rid her name off my consience. "harrrrrrrie" emily chirps shaking my shoulder gently. "this was fun, you were fun" i reply "butttttt" she smiles, "im sorry i told you i wasnt looking for a relationship". "ha, well you can stay single for ever" she purrs. A smile plasters on my face but what she said scares the crap out of me.
