Only Time Will Tell...

Where's Liam?

The next day, everyone was packing their bags, trying so hard not to cry.

“I gonna miss this place!” Cooper said, frowning.

“A lot of memories…” Leah said.

The next day

“I think that’s about it…” Niall said, picking up the last box out of the moving truck.

“We still have to haul the furniture here,” Liam said.

“I wish I could help…” Ashton said.

“Well, you’re pregnant, and you can’t lift anything,” Liam said.

Zayn walked outside from the house. “I just talked to Paul. Guys, we’re leaving tonight.”

“Call Louis. He’s at Perrie’s.” Niall said.

Everyone went inside to check out Ashton’s grandpa’s place.

Then there was a knock on the door.

“Hi, I’m Amanda, and this is my husband, John.” Amanda said, as they opened the door.

“Hi…” Leah said.

“We heard of George’s passing, and wanted to give our condolences. As a token of our gratitude, we would like to welcome you to our house across the street for dinner tonight to celebrate you moving in!” John said, perkily.

“Well, we just moved in…” Ashton said.

“And her grandfather died like last week, and she’s still hurting…” Harry said.

“And she’s pregnant!” Liam said.

“We are trying to be nice neighbors, but obviously, you don’t care about having loyal friends!” Amanda said, throwing the homemade cookies on the ground, “and your grandpa didn’t know how to mow his lawn!”

“You are crazy!” Ashton yelled, slamming the door in their faces.

“What about the cookies!” Cooper yelled.

That night at the airport…

“Well, I’ll miss you!” Ashton said, hugging Liam.

“Don’t forget about your daddy,” Liam said to Shawn. Shawn giggled.

“I love you!” Niall said, holding Darcy and Wyatt, and hugging Leah.

“Bye, bro,” Leah said to Zayn.

“Bye, sis,” Zayn said to Leah.

“Bye, dad!” Cooper said, running up to Liam.

2 months later

Around 1 in the morning, Leah heard a sound. ‘Is it a burglar?’ she thought. She tried to wake Niall, but realized he was gone.

She grabbed the first thing she saw: the lamp.

Leah slowly walked downstairs to see what it was.

“Surprise!” the boys screamed, jumping out of the kitchen.

Leah jumped and threw the lamp at Zayn.

“You scared me! I thought you were burglars!” Leah yelled.

“What is going on?” Ashton said, walking downstairs.

“The guys are back!” Leah said, hugging Niall.

“Where’s Liam?” Ashton asked.

“Um…he told us he wouldn’t be back for a while…” Harry said.
