Chapter 15

Gif and song on the side on the side <3

Liam's POV:

When we stepped out of the car we were immediately bombarded. How they found us still is in question. The questions they were throwing at Em and I were ruthless.

'Emily, are you using Liam for his fame?'

'Liam, why did you pick a fan of all people?'

'Is your publicist forcing this relationship?'

'Why would you choose an American that you very well know lives over 3000 miles away?'

'Does this mean you will be in the states more often?'

'Is this a publicity stunt?'

'Emily, are you using Liam to have him help you get farther in the fashion business?'

Flashes were going off in every direction. I could feel Em's face in my back and she was trembling. When we made it safely into a shop that immediately sparked interest, I took Emily in my arms and kissed her forehead. She was shaking and her breathing was uneven.

"You're okay, we're okay." I reassured her as she calmed down from what I was assuming was a mild anxiety attack.

"Liam, is she alright?" I heard Perrie ask softly from behind me.

"I think so. Just a mild anxiety attack I'm guessing." I replied slightly turning to face her. She stepped forward and hugged the both of us. When Perrie came into the picture I realized that it helped calm Emily down a little. After a minute Emilie had relaxed and I kissed her forehead before letting her go and turning to everyone else. They had concern written on their faces. Emily poked her head out from behind me to look at everyone.

"You alright Em?" Perrie asked.

"Mhm, does anyone have a pair of headphones or earphones that I can borrow, please? I think I left mine back at Liam's house. Usually music relaxes me further. By the way sorry 'bout that drama fest back there. I didn't realize it was that brutal. At least it wasn't a laughing fit like usual. What store ar-" I covered her mouth with my hand. She was still a little nervous. I could tell by how fast she was talking and how much her fingers were shaking.

"Yeah, anyone have a pair of headphones or earphones?" I said with a chuckle. Barbara took a pair of beat headphones out of her bag and passed them to me. I mouthed a 'thank you' to which she nodded.

I pulled Emily over to a corner in the store so she could calm down without the awkward stares from everyone. I handed her the headphones to which she happily took them from my hand and pulled out her phone. She plugged the headphones in and clicked on a song. I heard music blasting from the speakers meaning she probably was hard at hearing right now. I motioned her to remove one of the speakers.

"Hey I'm just going to go talk to Paul to see when we were getting out of here so I could take you to the place I said earlier. I'll be back in few minutes." She nodded and I leaned in and gave her a kiss.

"Thank you Liam." She said already noticeably more calm.

"You're welcome baby." I kissed her forehead and walked off to find Paul.

Emily's POV:

As 'I Choose U' by Timeflies flowed through the speakers, I saw Harry make his way over to me. He sat down beside me and removed one of the headphones so we could talk.

"Hey Harry, What's up?"

"Not much. What are you listening to? I can hear it a little." He stated.
