Elizabeth’s POV
Did it really look that bad? I was just feeling his lip ring to see how it felt… Who is he to get mad at me? We aren’t even dating… He needs to control himself… He has NO control over MY life… but even though I’m mad if I were to see him I would feel bad, why does my heart always get me in trouble??

Niall’s POV
I can’t believe my OWN lad would steal a girl I love away from me… Then again in his defense he really never knew I started to like her. You would think that it showed through my actions... Am I really that bad at flirting and showing that I like someone?

“Elizabeth, I’m sure he’ll get over it” Liam says rubbing Elizabeth’s back, she hiccups every once in a while from crying.

“No he won’t! I messed up so badly and he won’t even let me explain!” Elizabeth screams at Liam.

“We’ll see about that… NIALL!” Liam screams.

Niall walks out, eyes puffy and red like he’s been crying.

“Niall she isn’t going to…” Liam starts to explain but Niall turns around walking back to his room.

Liam grabs Niall’s arm, not gently at all. “NIALL. Listen. To. Me. SHE cares about you… Let her explain what happened. Soon we are going to go back on tour and she’s going to have to go back home. You need to talk this out” Liam says getting quieter with each word.

Niall walks back into the room and sits as far away from Elizabeth as he can.

“Niall” Elizabeth starts to say, trying to get closer to him; he scoots across the couch farther from her.

Elizabeth goes back to where she was sitting before with a frown plastered on her face.

“Niall, I was talking to Luke about getting a lip ring… I’ve wanted one for a while now and since he has one why not talk to him about it?” Elizabeth starts to explain, Niall is just staring at her, listening.

“I asked him if it was like a normal earring and he said he didn’t know.. so I asked if I could touch it to see how it felt because I was just curious….” Elizabeth says running out of breath, Niall looks at her still not talking.

“Whatever don’t talk to me. That’s cool to Niall.” Elizabeth says snapping.

Niall’s POV
Aww she’s apologizing… and making up crap as she goes hoping I will believe her lies. Does she think I was born yesterday? She should just tell me the truth it would be quicker and less painful. She needs to just tell me she doesn’t want me so I can get on with my life and she can go prance around in a patch of flowers with Luke.

Niall walks out of the room,  going back to his room and then burries his face under his covers.

Luke’s POV

What else can I do to make Niall get madder and push Elizabeth away? Hmmm….

“See I told you he hates me!” Elizabeth screams to Liam.

“He doesn’t hate you. Little Nialler wouldn’t even hate a little fly that keeps buzzing in his ear…” Liam begins to say.

Elizabeth interrupts Liam and says “But then why didn’t he talk? He could have nodded, or said ok, or something but he just sat there with a blank look on his face like I wasn’t even talking to him” 

“That’s what he does when he’s upset and mad… His mouth has gotten him in trouble before so he says nothing. You should see him when we pulled a prank him. One day we pranked him by puttin whipped cream in his hand and tickled his nose with a feather. He didn’t talk to everyone for a week” Liam says laughing as he remembers the memory.

Elizabeth giggles at the little story.

“There’s that beautiful smile, keep using it. It looks great on you” Liam says to Elizabeth.

“Be careful Niall might get mad at you...” Elizabeth says playfully.

“What is his problem? He’s acting like I’m his girlfriend… He doesn’t control my life. “Elizabeth asks Liam.

“I don’t know honestly, it seemed like he was into you... I could be wrong though. I’ll talk to him about it” Liam explains

“Ok, thank you Liam you are the best!” Elizabeth squeals and hugs him

~~2 hours later~~

“It’s time for dinner!” Harry screams from the kitchen. There’s a huge box of pizza sitting on the counter.

Everyone runs into the kitchen except a depressed little Niall, he’s slowly strolling into the kitchen.

Niall’s POV
I’m not even that hungry, I’m ALWAYS hungry… I just need to forget about Elizabeth, like she was never in my life. That’s easier said than done though.

Louis turns on the TV to the news, causing  Lynn to raise an eyebrow at Louis.

“What? Is it a crime to watch the news and know what is happening?” Louis says with a smirk.

Lynn nods her head like she understands.

Everyone is eating their pizza when the TV starts flashing BREAKING NEWS; everyone looks over to the TV and sees the names ‘Elizabeth Jones and Diana Jones’

“Hey that’s you Elizabeth!” Zayn screams Everyone says shhh! At the same time right after Zayn made the commet.

“Elizabeth and Diana were in the hospital yesterday but they have disappeared… no one has a clue where they are. Alexander flashes up on the screen and cries “I miss my mommy!”. If anyone has any information on where these two women are call the number on the screen”

Louis turns off the TV slamming the remote on the table by accident. and for the first time in about 2 hours Niall finally talks to Elizabeth

“Elizabeth, why were you in the hospital and why aren’t you there now??” Niall screams and says it so quickly Elizabeth can barely keep up.

Elizabeth sighs and looks at Niall with worry plastered all over his face.
