(Changed it up just the slightest bit)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Niall was near tears, the scowl on the mans face showed that he wasn't happy about his sexuality. But, how can you just change that? It's something that has become apart of him and grown with him just as his love for golf and music. But apparently, being gay was a huge, huge problem. 

"Do you realize how this will jeopardize the band and your careers as a whole?" The man asked, crossing his arms over his suited chest and leaning back in a leather seat. The disgust on his face made Niall stare at his shoes, they looked more interesting than the angered man.

Niall just stiffly nodded, not wanting to say anything to make this extensive conversation worse.

"You realize that some countries don't even allow gay people right, it is illegal to be gay. And they won't even allow their own citizens to like the same gender, what do you think they will do to One Direction when they find out one of the members is a homosexual?" The man's voice was low and threatening, and Niall could only bite his lip to force back the tears coming to his eyes.

Yes, he knew that gay people were only labeled as disgusting and offensive to certain religions. Niall knew that for god sakes and he's been thinking about this moment for months on end, trying to find words to say, putting sentences together in his head every day to see what one would be perfect. But let's face it, he could've picked the best thing to say and the man would still only hear the word 'I'm gay' and the rest would be unheard of. 

"Countries, cities, all down to stadiums don't allow gay people. I've heard of bands getting kicked out of stadiums for just supporting gay people, you won't even be able to get into the country by actually being gay now." The man ranted on and on, keeping this stern expression across his face and not having one care in the world for Niall's feelings. Niall's career was all that mattered to him, and that wasn't a good thing. 

"How do you think your band mates, the instrumental band, the crew and the fans would think if One Direction weren't aloud in certain countries, and like I said, what would happen if you were aloud in the country but not in the stadiums? It would be no use of you boys being there if that happened. And gosh, can you imagine the profit we would lose? Full countries we would have to skip in world tours, we would lose millions." The man shook his head at the thought, sighing and leaning forward to settle his forearms on top of his desk. "All of these rules and restraints because one of the band mates sexuality?" He didn't look impressed, and shrugged before looking Niall right in the eyes. The man had an icy glare set on him, and Niall wanted to smack it off. 

But then again, he was truthful. He was just one person out of all the people who worked for One Direction that was gay, and now that he came out, it's like all the pressure and disgrace was set on him. Niall had been in the closet ever since he signed up for X-Factor, and yes, he wasn't absolutely sure if he was gay but after the second year, he knew exactly what gender he liked, and it definitely wasn't a female. Another year had pasted and that was probably the worst for the young lad, having to deal with looking and talking to his band mates that he promised to tell everything too, and lie to their faces every time they asked him if he was okay. Niall was done fighting with himself, done feeling the guilt and the pain inside his chest whenever he looked at a hot guy and had to look away quickly so no one noticed his "fag showing." Niall came out with pride on that tweet cam, he knew that someone, someone out there in the cruel world he had to share with so many people, would smile and appreciate his well being. But no, all he got was questions, a call from management and more damage to his heart.
