Chapter 4

Today is Friday. Right now I am sitting in the Today Show studio with a salty caramel hot chocolate and a chocolate glaze doughnut. It's Friday December 13. The boys are getting ready to go on. Just two nights ago I shared a kiss with Harry Styles. It was magical. But we cant tell anyone because

1. Liam would be beyond furious
2. I would never be able to go out without being swarmed by the paparazzi
3. I would get endless hate from fangirls on twitter
4. Jared might come after Harry and I

I snapped back to reality when I feel large hands touch my shoulders.
"Harry what the hell are you doing!"
"What?"
"um there are cameras everywhere and Liam and the boys are literally right around the corner!"
"I love you" he whispers in my ear
"I love you to but right now you need to get off of me."

He looked at me with a puppy dog face that made me laugh hysterically. I've never noticed that he has dimples.

"Alright loverboy, go warm up I want the girls to swoon over you!"
"Your swoon is the only one that matters to me Leah."
"That was terribly cheesy Styles" I say as I get up to throw away my cup and my napkin.

"You know that delicious doughnut you ate?"
"Ya?" I say with my mouth full
"I made sure they got one for you because I know there your favorite and I also made sure they didn't get starbucks because I know you hate coffee and the salty caramel hot coa-coa is your new favorite."
"You know you are something else Styles"

We stand there for a few moments staring at eachother until we hear a booming voice

"HAZZA WE GOTTA GO WARM UP" my brother called
"Ok Comin"

He looks back and mouths "Love you" it makes me blush and I can feel the red flowing into my cheeks. This was happening, I finally have a nice guy interested in me and my brother already treats him like a brother and... he's just so perfectly perfect.

*1 hour later*

The boys are onstage performing "Story of my Life" they sound amazing. I'm standing on a platform right in the middle of the screaming girls and the boys are all stealing glances at me (mostly Harry)

Once they finish their songs the boys start talking about me to the fans...

"Today my sister, Leah, is here. She doesn't know this but most of that song was about her, as far as my family goes." Liam said

"Ya Liam and Leah haven't had the easiest life." Niall added

"Yes. When I was 7 and Leah was 6, our parents died in a car crash and we had to live with our godparents, Regina and John. You see they weren't really ready for kids... they were only 24 and 25. They still wanted to live their life, which we understand. So really it was Leah and I against the world, and to get us through these times... we would play music. Our favorite song to sing was Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. It would give us hope." said Liam tears dripping down his face

"And without further or do here is Leah Payne..." Harry said with a smile on his face

I was completely and utterly shocked that they would do this for me. I haven't sang with my brother in years...

*Harry's P.O.V*

Leah walked to the stage a huge smile on her face. The boys and I heard her singing the other day and we decided that we were going to surprise her and have her sing with Liam. Here we go... Niall starts strumming and Louis, Zayn, and I hum along.

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the lord
But you don't really care for music do you?
It goes like this the fourth the fifth
The minor fall the major lift,
The baffled king composing, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew a Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Baby I have been there before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's somebody who has seen the light
It's a cold and a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
But I don't even know the name
But if I did, well, really what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy and the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the lord of song
With nothing on my tounge but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Leah was utterly amazing...
