Twenty-two letters to Liam

Letter ten

Letter nine

Madison Smith

London, England

Dear Liam

I saw an interview of you guys a couple of days ago and you said you've been reading a lot of fanmail. Maybe you're reading this? Even though that's just as impossible as an unicorn on a rainbow, but on another note, a lot of people say that exists so yeah ..

Do you think Karen minds I keep coming to your house Liam? Every time I put a letter in your mailbox she's in front of the window, and she always looks very concerned at me. Maybe she read my letters? Karen, are you reading this? In a couple of weeks there's a talent show and I've been randomly chosen. I'm not looking forward to it at all Liam. I love singing, but I don't want everyone to hear it. What if they'll laugh at me? It's on the fifth of November I think. Can someone just hurt me before that day, so I don't have to participate.

My birthday is tomorrow, and I'm afraid everybody has forgotten it. My mum will probably send me some stupid card, but I don't think anyone else will do something. As always. Great. I hate it when people forget my birthday.

Liam POV

'Liam Payne,' I say answering the phone.

'Liam!'

'Mum!'

She laughs. 'Liam, honey. How are you?'

I smile. 'I'm fine. I just finished another interview and we're about to get on the bus,' I answering while entering our tour-bus, waiting for Niall to get out of my way.

'Listen,' my mum suddenly says, sounding just a bit too serious. 'The past few days a girl has been coming to our house. Everyday she puts a letter in our mailbox. I couldn't resist the urge to open them, Li! Sorry. But I really think you should read them?'

I raise a brow. 'Really? Who send them?'

I hear her messing around. 'Madison Smith. She calls herself Maddy.'

My heart starts to pound. She delivers the letters at my house? Why haven't I seen her before. I wanted to meet her!

'Long, brownish hair?'

'Yes. And green eyes.'

A smile appears on my face. 'If you see her. Can you stop her and tell her I've been reading her letters.'

'Shouldn't I give her your number. Do you know her Liam?'

'No, I don't know her. Just tell her I care, that's the only thing I'm asking for,' I answer decided. How badly I want to get to know her, I think it's for the better she just knows how much I care about her. She probably gets a lot of hate because of me, and I don't want her to feel more shit like she already does. I love her, even though I don't know her. Maybe love isn't the right word. Addicted. Yes, I'm addicted. Everyday I look forward to reading her letters, and focus completely on her world. Can you be addicted to something like that? Apparently.

'And send met those letters!' I tell her before hanging up the phone.

So tomorrow, I'll probably spend the entire day in my room, waiting for somebody to bring me present which isn't going to be happening anyway.

Maybe Kathy will remember, but I don't think so.

I don't have anything to talk about today. So let's talk about you?

Liam, I saw your tattoo. You badass :D. But seriously. Don't let the pain of your breakup get to you. It's not worth it. Make sure you won't regret any of your tattoos. Ow and anways. I saw the two of you. Are you back together? I hope so! You guys are cute together!

Well, I gotta go to diner. Apperently, to them, that's more important than my letter to you. I love you Liam!

Maddy.
