As Long As You Love Me (Unfinished)

Chapter 27. Damage Control.

Hello everyone. How are you all?

I'd just like to mention that I've been editing some of the previous chapters because I realised how disgusting and dumb my writing was....hopefully it's better now. There aren't any major changes. Just more detailed descriptions and slightly longer chapters so you don't HAVE to re-read the chapters if you don't want to.

Here's Chapter 27. Enjoy!

Chapter 27. Damage Control.

Emma's POV

I rubbed my sweaty palms along the sides of my dress. I had been standing in front of the door for the past ten minutes unable to enter the house.

Come on Emma, grow some balls. You can do this.

This is dumb. Just ring the damn bell!

I inhaled deeply before ringing the bell, my heart hammering against my rib cage.

As I waited for the door to open I prayed that it would be anyone but Liam, Harry or Emily.

Within seconds, the door flew open revealing a wide eyed Liam with disheveled hair. He still had his dress shirt from the ball on, only now it was full of creases.

I waited for Liam to explode but instead he did the last thing I expected him to do; he wrapped me into a tight hug.

"Do you know how worried sick we all were? How worried I WAS?" he said into my hair, holding me in a protective manner.

I bit my lip, my eyes beginning to sting for the tenth time.

"I'm sorry, I just needed some space," I mumbled into his shoulder.

"Emma, please don't ever do that again. I was so scared," he said pulling away.

"I know I'm so sorry. I'm alright though," I replied. That's when I noticed 3 pairs of eyes staring at me. Louis got off the couch and attacked me with a hug.

"Emmy you silly girl! Don't you dare do that again!," he scolded me while hugging the life out of me.

I sniffed before nodding my head. Louis then let go off me, his hand placed on my arm in a caring manner.

"I'm uh, going to my room. I'm tired," I mumbled before heading upstairs, feeling those emerald green eyes burning holes at the back of my head.

As soon as I entered my bedroom, I felt my eyes grow hot for the nth time. I thought I could handle it but seeing Harry and Emily sitting beside each other was too much.

I pulled my knees close to my body and began sobbing into my hands.

I felt so weak. So pathetic.

My eyes fluttered open as I felt the bed dipping beside me.

"Ems. Wake up."

I turned around to be greeted with Zayn's brown, warm eyes.

My lips spread into a sleepy smile.

"Zaynnn," I said before pulling him into a hug. I'd missed him.

"Hi," he whispered.

"How...how are you?" Zayn asked cautiously.

Oh, looks like he found out what happened last night. I'm guessing the whole world knew something about last night's fiasco.
