The One and Only (One Direction)

Chapter Six

Isabel's POV 

When I wake up Friday morning, the first thing I feel is the burning, throbbing feeling that pulses in my throat. There's no way I can hide this if I go to the studio. My phone buzzes, and I quickly answer. "Hello?" I croak. 

"Why aren't you at the studio- Are you okay?" It's David. "No, I'm fine. I can't come in today. I sound like a frog," I manage to get out with screaming in pain. "Well then, I'll leave you to resting up. I'll call you when we have a re-scheduled date, okay?" He says.  I whisper,"Okay," and feel my throat explode in pain. I start to say goodbye, but David has already hung up. I text the first person that comes to mind, which just happens to be Niall.

Niall's POV 

My phone begins vibrating on the table next to me. I unlock it, and smile, seeing that it was Isabel. *Morning, just wanted to let you know that I'm not going to the studio today.* I reply, -Your voice bothering you?- *Yeah. :(* Isabel answers. I think for a moment, and reply, -Don't worry. We'll take care of you.- 

Isabel's POV

I fall back into my sheets after Niall texts back, eyes closing almost immediately. I try to fall asleep, but I can't relax with my throat aching. Flipping the covers back, I stand and make my bed before walking over to my closet and picking out a plain black shirt, my Panic! At The Disco varsity jacket, a pair of grey sweatpants and my favorite blue and white fuzzy socks. Then I twist my long hair up into a simple ponytail. I wash up and grab my phone before making my way down to the kitchen. The boys look up when I walk in, giving me a mix of smiles and waves. I wave shyly before getting out a glass from the cupboard.

I easily down some water, and pull my phone out of my pocket. Seconds later, four dings are heard. *Anyone up for Mario Kart 7?* Heads nod in agreement, making me smile. *Liam, get ready to loose your record!!* Liam looks up and says, "You know about that?" I blush and nod shyly. 

We play Mario Kart 7 most of the day, and I beat Liam's record on Daisy Hills. By about 10 pm, my voice is back to normal. Before I go to bed, I manage to find Liam alone. I ask softly, "Liam, can I trust you to keep a secret, and not tell Niall?" Liam looks up and nods, "You like him, don't you." 

My eyes widen nervously. "You knew?" I ask. "It's a bit obvious from the way you look at him, Isabel," Liam says, "Don't worry. I don't think that Niall knows."

I nod, and say, "Then since we've already covered what I was going to tell you, I guess I'm going to go to bed." Liam bids me goodnight. I turn and make my way to my room, shutting the door and turning off the lights quickly before collapsing n the bed.

Niall's POV

I hear Isabel's door shut and walk out of my room, and downstairs into the kitchen. Liam stands at the counter, drinking some water while on his phone. "Hey Liam," I begin, "I'd like some advice please." Liam puts his phone and water on the counter, and walks over to where I'm sitting at the breakfast bar. "I think- no, I know that I have, well, erm, feelings for Isabel, and I don't know if I should ask her on a date or not, or-" 

Liam cuts me off, "I think that you should ask her on a date soon. Just be you, okay?" I nod and thank him for his advice before walking up to my room.

Liam's POV

I grab my phone as Niall walks out of the room, and text Harry and Louis to tell them about what Isabel and Niall had told me. The three of us agree; we need to get the two of them to confess their feelings to each other. If we didn't help them, Niall probably would get to nervous to say anything, and Isabel wouldn't say a thing. Now the only thing to do is to figure out how we can get them to confess.
