On Tour With One Direction

Chapter Eight

Chapter 8

*NIALL’S POV*

‘She’s special to me too mate’. Harry’s words keep playing over and over in my head. Harry likes Amelia too? I guess he will get her because of how close they are, they are together all the time and flirt with each other none stop. Maybe, just maybe, I’ll get the girl this time. I just need to find a way to make things up to her after that kiss and I need to break up with Sophie, I just can’t do it anymore.

Sophie is flying out here next week when we land in Chicago, maybe I’ll have to break it to her then? I can’t make her fly all the way out here for me to break her heart can I? I need Liam. Liam is the only one that helps me in these situations, my best friend and brother who always knows what to say.

I throw on a pair of sweats, a tank top and my Chicago Bulls snapback before I leave to go to Liam’s room. As I walk down the corridor I notice Harry and Amelia getting into the lift. I have a sudden urge to run in after them and stop whatever is going on there, but I can’t. She would think I’m some crazed lunatic if I tried to stop two friends from going out on their night off. I smile weakly at Amelia and Harry before I enter Liam’s hotel room.

‘Hey Liam.’ I sigh and drop myself down onto his double bed.

‘What’s up?’ Liam looks over towards me; he can always tell when something is wrong.

‘I need to tell you something, but you have to promise not to tell anyone’ I say sternly. Liam simply nods and waits for me to continue. I clasp my hands together and look to the ground. ‘I think I have feelings for Amelia’

‘WHAT?’ Liam shouts.

‘I know, I know’ I bury my head in my hands and sigh deeply.

‘What about Sophie? You two have been together for a long time mate, do you really want to ruin that?’

‘I love Sophie, I really do, but it isn’t like it used to be. I never see her anymore because she lives in Mullingar, and we argue over my career all the time. With Amelia everything is just so nice; she is so carefree and doesn’t care what people think about her. That’s what I love’ by this time I can feel tears starting to build up in my eyes. I blink uncontrollably to make the tears stop.

‘So what are you going to do then?’

‘That’s the thing, I don’t know? Harry likes her too’ my voice croaks at the last words of the sentence and then the tears come streaming down my face. Liam pulls me into his chest and comforts me. ‘I have to break up with Sophie, she’s flying out to Chicago next week but I can’t ask her to fly all the way out here for me to break her heart can I?’

‘Not really mate. I think you’re going to have to tell her sooner rather than later, that is if you are sure that you want to go through with this’ Liam looks at me straight in the eyes. I nod in reply.

‘Thanks Liam, I owe you one’ I flash Liam a small smile before making my way back to my hotel room and starting up my laptop. Once my laptop has loaded I open up Skype and click on Sophie’s name. Better sooner rather than later, I have to do it now.

*AMELIA’S POV*

‘WAKE UP AMZ’ Louis shouts in my ear and starts bouncing on my bed. ‘TODAY IS THE DAY’  

‘Louis Tomlinson, get off my bed and out of my room. It’s 7.30am for god sake and we have a day off, I need my sleep.’ Maybe I was a little harsh, but hey I’m not a morning person. Plus I’m extremely tired because Harry took me out to the movies last night and we didn’t get home until later on. I hear Louis groan and run out of my room slamming the door shut after him. I swear that boy makes more noise than a herd of elephants in the mornings. Suddenly I realise what Louis was talking about when he said ‘Today is the day’. My best friend Georgia from back at home in Newcastle was flying out to America to stay with us for a couple of weeks. Ahh I’m so excited.
