Hall Of Heroes

Chapter 9

"What do you mean you're off the programme?" The 5 boys sat in their dorm room, staring at Liam who sat on his bunk bed. Zayn had explained what had happened up until the point where he'd been made to leave.

"It means you guys are allowed to keep going to the sessions, but I'm not... whatever the programme is for." Liam explained, clenching and un-clenching his fists. His jaw was also clenched, angry at himself for punching a second year. If only he had controlled his anger...

"Well I don't see the point in this programme if they're not gonna tell us what's happening." Louis said as he jumped down off his top bunk. He opened up a drawer and rummaged through for a pair of jogging bottoms and a T-shirt to sleep in.

"I'm pretty sure they'll tell us soon." Harry said, proceeding to do the same as Louis.

"You would've thought they'd tell us by now though. But think about it: we're being taught self defence, how to control our powers and use them against people... don't you think this sounds like we're going into battle?" Niall said. The boys all stopped and looked at Niall as they pondered over this thought.

"Like power rangers..." Zayn whispered. Louis laughed at Zayn's comment.

"If we're the next power rangers lads then I bagsy being the red one." Louis said.

"I'm yellow." Zayn added as he stood up.

"I'm green. No arguments there." Niall laughed, enjoying the conversation.

"Well then I'm defiantly pink." Harry said with a cheeky smile and dimples prominent, the boys laughing in response. Liam was the only one who didn't laugh. Harry then remembered what had started the conversation and sat down next to Liam.

"Listen, I'm sorry mate, but if what she said about you may being allowed back on the programme then you'll be in the next session. No doubt about that." Harry said with a reassuring smile. Liam smiled in return.

"Thanks mate..." he said. There seemed to be little happiness in Liam's voice, which worried the boys.

"Well guys, I'm being a good little boy and getting in bed 'cause I am knackered. You ladies can keep gossiping... and cheer up Payne, it'll be okay." Louis said as he clambered back up into bed, now in a loose pair of jogging bottoms and a tight white t-shirt. The jogging bottoms seemed to drown Louis slightly, with him being a little too short for them. Harry smiled to himself at how cute he thought it was. It'd been a while since Harry had thought about Louis, and he'd kinda forgotten about the fact that he could have a crush on him.

There was a chorus of "night Louis" from the other boys who stayed up chatting a bit more before each going to sleep. The one boy who found it hard to sleep though was Liam, worried sick about what was going to happen to him and if he would actually be allowed back on the programme.
