"Liam?"

What the fuck is he doing here....

He looked up and smiled immediately. "Acis! Good to see you, love." he said, I recognized his accent and his voice. "Hey couz, when did you arrive? You didn't even let me pick you up, you could've told me , you know."

"It's okay, Acis. We arrived three days ago, I didn't want to bother anybody. Besides, I was absolutely knackered so it would've been trouble to pick up a jetlagged Liam." I laughed at what he said but remembered. They? We?

"You're with somebody? Who? Nicola and Ruth? Uncle and Auntie? Danielle? " I asked and he laughed; "None of them, I'm with the lads." he said. Lads? Boys? Who?

"Who "lads" ?" I asked quoting the word in the air, confused. "My bandmates, you know, One Direction."

Oh. I just need to let that sink in. Liam is in a boyband, a big one and they are number 1 in the world I heard . He's been in that boyband ever since 2010, a very tragic year for me, anyway, he's super busy. Why is he even here?

"So what brings you here?" I asked politely, not to sound rude. "We're off touring, we have a vacation till next year, surprisingly. And it's been a while since we've been to America so yeah."

"How long are you staying then?"

"About 3 months or so, the boys and I love being here and meeting our american fans." He said with a happy expression, how does he stay happy, cant he feel the tension?

"Well if you need any help just call me, heres my number." I offered a calling card but he offered his phone, embarassing me. Geez, who needs a calling card when you have the phone at the moment anyway?

He excused himself to go to the "loo", I'm guessing bathroom and minutes his phone rang, he left it, obviously. I didnt mean to pry but my eyes automatically scanned the screen; Harry Styles. I wonder who he is...

Liam appeared but didnt reach his phone as it stopped ringing. " I didnt mean to look but I did, who's Harry Styles?"

"Oh Harry, hes one of my mates. Him, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson. Hes the youngest at 19." He explained happily and I smiled too at the sound of the name Louis, oh and I remember, Zayn is Perrie's boyfriend.

"Do you all get along? Are they all good guys?" I asked in curiosity. "We all get along, yeah. We're basically like brothers and they're all good lads, very well mannered." He said but laughed like he doesnt believe what he said. "I'm not much convinced, Liam" I laughed with him. "I'm just joking, they are well mannered." I nodded in fascination.

"Well you know what I do in life, what do you do in this place" He asked, gesturing around the place. So he doesnt know I'm a secret agent/spy? Thats surprising, hes the closest I know of all our family, he must've heard, at least.

"Oh, well..uhm. I.." I stuttered and he raised his eyebrows at me, expecting an answer. Well if hes gonna be around here might as well let him know. I sighed, and looked at him. " I'm a spy, Liam." His eyes grew wide and blinked three times.

"So this is "family business"? This is your lifes work?" He asked surprised. I nodded, I've always had a hard time explaining to people why I do this.

"I mean its cool, believe me. But, how did you get into this?"

I inhaled deeply and started to use all my strength not to cry infront of him, I never cry infront of someone, not even Perrie. "Well...after-after mom and dad died..me and Lou took over the company but due-due to the, happenings, I'm left with this."
