Chapter 6

(Rylans P.O.V)

Deciding that i wanted to talk to Liam about the kiss i got out of bed, grabbed a shirt and started looking for his room. I wasnt sure which room would be his as there were about 7 doors in the hallway, i figured that if the room i went into wasnt Liams one of the other boys would tell me which room was his. Starting with the room closest to the one i was staying in i opened each door and peaked inside. The 3rd room just happened to be Zayns and to make it even more awkward he was on the phone. To who i assumed was his girlfriend by the way they were talking. Not wanting to disrupt him i quitely closed the door and moved onto the next room. This room had a guitar and a king sized bed. There was no one in there and being the curious person i was i started to lok around. Picking up one of the photos on the desk i couldnt help but smiling at the faces i saw. A younger Niall and Liam smiling at the camera. They appeared to be at a fair of some sort and they looked happy. The image of the two boys together made me realize that much like with my own band, they werent bound because they were in a band together, they were bound by friendship.

"Its a nice photo isn't it" came Nialls voice from beside me.

I jumped and dropped the photo.

"I'm so sorry i was looking for Liams room and i got curious. I..."

He cut me off with his laugh

"Rylan it's fine. Liams room is next to mine. Go talk to him." He said while pushing me out the door.

Blushing i knocked on Liams door. A part of me was hoping he was asleep and didnt answer while the other part of me just wanted to open the door without waiting for him to answer. Debating whether this was a good idea or not i turned around to walk away just as his door opened.

"Rylan?" He asked groggily

"Uh yeah sorry i didnt mean to wake you i just wanted to talk but we can talk later. You can go back to sleep" I rambled while starting to walk away, only to be stopped by his hand on my wrist. I flinched and he let go.

"I'm sorry" he muttered sheepishly "but please come sit with me?"

I sighed. There was no way i could say no to him when i looked in his eyes. They held so much pain and hope. It broke my heart to know that someone had been the cause of the pain he was feeling. I followed him into his room and sat on the side of the bed while he sat beside me.

"So... what did you want to talk about?" He asked nervously

I didnt know what to say to him at that point. Was it a good idea to talk about it? I wasnt so sure now.

"I wanted to talk about... Well about.. What happened before" i said quietly.

"Oh yeah that. Uh look i'm sorry about that. It shouldnt have gone that far. I mean we only met today and we know nothing about each other. I get it if you'd rather pretend it didnt happen" He said slowly.

I looked up at him, my eyes flicking to his lips before i smiled slightly "We could always get to know each other now"

He smiled back and me and moved closer to my side. "That sounds like a good idea".

We spent the next few hours talking and getting to know each other. I found out he was originally from Wolverhampton and that he is 20, which is quite a few years older than me. He told me about how his girlfriend had cheated on him and how he'd only found out this morning, which explained why he looked so upset. He told me about what it was like at school for him, about how nobody came to his 16th birthday. He opened up to me and i did my best to open up to him. I told him i was 16 and i was from Australia. How i lived there until i was 6 and i was put into foster care then moved to Bradford with a foster family who then gave me up. I told him about all the foster homes i had been in, about how my band started and the band i was in before that. How i started singing in my first band at 12 and how that had only lasted a year then when i was 14 i started in the band i am currently in. By the end of our talk i believed i knew him better than i thought i would when these boys picked me up at the airport earlier. Glancing at the clock Liam swore.

"Rylan i think we should get some sleep unless you want to go downstairs. Its 7am and neither of us have slept"

"Yeah i might get some sleep" i said standing up

"Where are you going?" He asked as he grabbed me by the waist "You're sleeping in here with me"

He tucked me under the blankets and wrapped his arms around me. I had my head against his chest and for the first time in 3 years i was ohkay with being this close to another person.
