Louis' PoV

As soon as I saw Liam glancing at the others and I, I knew he's worried about something. I followed Liam quietly, worried for him. As soon as he entered the bathroom, a figure stood beside me. "Hey, Tomlinson." Niall greeted, making me frown. "Whatcha doing here, Horan?" I asked the small boy. "Oh, I was just- Hey! Leave him alone!" I turned back towards Liam to discover that he was kicked in the stomach by one of Zayn's 'friends'.

"Payne! Oh my god!" I exclaimed, rushing to Liam's side. Niall was yelling at the three boys, as they just snickered silently. "Horan! Go find Malik or something! I'm pretty sure he's excited to know that his friends are bullying someone." I said, making the three boys widen their eyes. "You wouldn't dare." One of them said to Niall, making him grin. "Try me." Then, he ran off, leaving three boys shaking.

Soon, Malik, Horan and Styles came back. The three boys were passed out as I had knocked them out by hitting the back of their heads in the correct spot, so Malik is furious. Wanna know why? A week ago, we had this big fight with each others group. Basically, we had tended each of our wounds and on that same night, had given out a warning saying that we had peace with each groups. But with this proof, it's enough to say some people really don't like following rules.

"What happened?" Styles asked, helping me carry Liam. "Well, I was following Payne to see where he was going, not because I wanted to bully him myself, no. I saw some of Zayn's group eyeing him." This was a lie, but I can't risk my reputation. "I waited for him besides the bathroom and suddenly Horan came beside me. We talked for a millisecond, before Horan saw one of them kicking Payne in the stomach." I said, as Niall nodded. "Well, what are we going to do with these?" Zayn asked, frowning. "I don't know. Report them to the teachers?" Niall said innocently.

I chuckled quietly, but apparently the boys heard me. "Why are you laughing? I'm serious!" Niall whined, making me laugh. "Tell the teachers? Why do you think they care?" I said, making the boys nod hesitantly. "Yeah, Payne has been saying something about bullying. And the teachers never give a-" I cupped Zayn's mouth. "Not in front of Horan, please." I said, as Niall looked at us with amused eyes. "Hey, curse all ya want. I don't give a flying donkey's shit about it." Niall said, making the three of us gasp.

"You actually curse? Oh my god, if you told me earlier I wouldn't have covered Zayn's mouth!" I said, not realising the fact that I just called Zayn's first name. The boys didn't care though, in fact, they looked happy. Especially Zayn. "Well, sorry Lou, didn't know that you guys actually think I'm innocent." Niall said, running his fingers through Liam's hair. We had placed him on a bench near the front door while he lays on Niall's lap.

"Nobody told me! I had thought about it, but remembering the fact that when we were little, you don't even know the meaning of 'Boobs' and 'Pussy', I thought you were still innocent, Niall!" I said, making the rest of the boys chuckle as Niall blushed.

"Ha, that's true. You were so clueless." Harry said, smiling. The boys laugh, before Liam starts moving. "Ugh... Why are you guys so noisy?" Liam mumbled, rubbing his eye. As soon as he saw the four of us, he visibly paled. "Um... Hi?" He said, looking down. "Hey, Liam. How are you?" Zayn asked, wrapping an arm around my shoulder. "I'm fine, Zayn. Other than the pain that's emitting from my stomach, I'm just peachy." Liam said sarcastically, before coughing a bit. "Liam, do you need to go to the nurses office? We could help take you there." Harry said, rubbing his hand softly behind Liam.

"Sure." His voice was hoarse, making Niall and I wince, before helping him up slowly. The five of us walked slowly and carefully towards the nurses office, avoiding eye contact with the other students. As soon as we entered the nurses office, she frowned at Liam. "What's wrong with Mr. Payne?" She asked, while Niall and I sat Liam down at the seat. "Well, Liam was kicked in the stomach by Fred and his group of bullies, and we're worried about his old scars that might've opened." Harry said, patting Liam's shoulder lightly.

Niall had sat next to me and had rested his head on my shoulder, eyeing Liam worriedly. I smiled at Niall comfortingly, because it's rare seeing him sad and worried. He smiled at me, before Mrs. Richard, the nurse wanted Liam to take off his shirt to see how bad is his scars. Liam had this very obvious blush in his cheeks, but followed anyways. After he had taken off his shirt, the boys and I gasped.

He had scars on his arms, bruises on his chest, stomach and shoulder and a giant gash from his chest to his stomach. "Why didn't you tell us? We could've helped." Zayn said, his tears falling down. "B-because you guys were too b-busy. I d-don't want to t-trouble you. I know you guys care about your r-reputations." Liam said, his own tears falling away. I shook my head while Niall and Harry hugged Zayn comfortingly. "Our reputation can die, you are much more important. You're a friend. I should've told every single one of you that I missed you all. Every. Single. One." I said, balling my fist in disappointment.

The others nodded, before Mrs. Richard smile. "It's nice to see you are back together again. Honestly, what had happened to all of you?" She said, wrapping a bandage around Liam's arm, shoulder and stomach. "It's complicated. Let's just say, fame got to our heads..." Zayn said awkwardly, while the rest of us nodded. "It's alright. You are all friends again right?" She asked as Liam wore his shirt again. "I don't know. Friends?" Niall said, smirking. "Forever." We all said, smiling softly at each other.
