Niall's Biggest Secrets

Chapter Twelve

After their Harry Potter movie marathon, Jade and the girls went home and Louis, Harry, Zayn, and Perrie went on a double date-leaving Niall and Liam home alone. Well, technically they weren't alone, but seeing as they were avoiding each other at the moment it probably would have been better if they were. Each stayed in their own room and neither made a noise for a while. Being as their rooms were right beside each other, Liam was able to hear Niall start to play his guitar to Cold Coffee by Ed Sheeran.

Niall started to sing the beautiful song with a soft delicate voice, and Liam couldn't help but miss how the old days were. Before he ruined the best relationship he had ever had. When he could wake up every morning knowing that the love of his life was right beside him. But he had to ruin it. He literally had to. Management had found out about their relationship and were not happy about it. Liam felt the guilt eat him alive yet again at the thought that he may never be able to kiss the Irish boy's perfect lips again. How soft yet firm they were, and how they fit perfectly with his own lips. Liam sighed as he laid down on his bed, still listening to Niall finish the song. It was quiet for a a while before he heard the sound play again but in a different tune, an unfamiliar one. He came to the conclusion that Niall must have written another new song for their album when he heard Niall begin to sing.

Those scars on your wrists are the mark of the world
An ocean that's left you so torn
But remember the heart you brought into this world
The same one as when you were born

How confused you must be
Finding love in the blood that you bleed
But the truth is that i see
Why you say that 'its hard to be me'
And we all make mistakes
Its not you, but this world you should hate
You're as beautiful as you were yesterday

And those tears in your eyes are the product of lies
You've been lead to believe that they're true
But remember the light you brought into this world
I promise it will get you through

How confused you must be
Finding love in the blood that you bleed
But the truth is that i see
Why you say that 'its hard to be me'
And we all make mistakes
Its not you, but this world you should hate
You're as beautiful as you were yesterday

Niall couldn't finish the song. His eyes stung as he sobbed into his hands. He curled into the fetal position on his bed after putting away his guitar. He didn't care at the moment if anyone walked in and saw him like this. All he wanted was to let it out. He started hiccuping when the door to his room opened a crack before the person knocked.

"Ni?" Liam said walking over to the bed. Niall held his knees tighter as Liam stepped over his guitar case and sat on the edge of the bed. "Niall I really need to tell you something."

Liam looked Niall in the eyes and told him everything.

"When I 'cheated' on you, it wasn't my choice. Everytime I had ever hurt you, it wasn't a choice. Management forced me to break up with you or they would kick you out of the band. I guess they didn't know hom much of an effect that would have on us. They didn't know how in love we were. And I still am. Always have been, and always will be."

Niall opened his mouth to speak, but instead sat up and went over to Liam. He tilted his chin up and kissed him on the cheek. Liam sat there sartled before slowly bringing his hand to where Niall had kissed him. He smiled goofily and kissed Niall this time straight on the lips. He pulled away after a few seconds and put his finger through the blonds belt loop. He pulled him closer and kissed him again, and this time when he pulled away, he said "I'll make it up to you, I promise."
