"Haha! Our team won!" Liam and Louis still continue to boast-even an hour after we had finished freshening up. I was stuck with Harry and Niall as teammates.

"You only won because I had Niall on my team!" I complained.

"Hey! I am an amazing teammate.You should feel honored to have me on your team." Niall whined from across our hotel room. We had bought two rooms, but only used the other when it was time to sleep.

Niall, Louis, and I shared a room while Harry and Liam shared the other.

"If "amazing" is what you call eating all the food that Louis threw at you, using me as a human shield and pouring two cans of soda on Harry's jungle that he calls his hair...Then I guess you were."

"In my defense, Harry asked for it after he pushed a hotdog down my pants." Niall defends.

Harry's head pops out of the bathroom door and glares at Niall. If looks could kill, Niall would be dead a million times over.

 Liam and Harry emerged from the bathroom. Harry sat next to Liam and Niall on the pull-out couch, while Louis and I laid on the bed.

We all wore black skinny jeans but still looked unique.

Liam wore a plain white tee while Harry wore a plain black tee. Louis pulled a white tee over his head and finished off his look with a black jacket. Niall's black and gray button down jacket covered his maroon shirt and slipped on his white Supras.  Lastly, I wore a maroon pullover on top of my white tee. I couldn't help but smile at how similiar, yet different, we all are.

"Did you two shower together?" I interrogate. Well, it isn't strange for us to do these types of things but we just love to embarrass push each other's buttons.

They both blush and look towards each other. Liam winks while Harry answers.

"N-no" Harry stutters, looking away from us.

Louis, Niall and I make eye contact and burst into laughter.

"Harold must have had a pleasant time.Am I right mate?" Louis looks over to Harry and wiggles his eyebrows.

"Shut up." Harry mumbles but chuckles at the end. Liam pats Harry on the back and stands up.

"So what do we have planned for today boys?" Liam asks nobody in particular.

"Actually, I figured we could go visit Julie today? I told her a week ago we could hang out, and she had been really waiting to see us." I offer.

The entire room goes silent and I can almost feel Harry tense up from across the room.

Niall leaps off the couch in excitement and shouts "Come on then! What are we waiting for?"

"Sounds like fun. Alrighty then, let's go." Liam agrees. Being the responsible one, he leads us out the door.

I slow down my pace to fall to the back of the group with Harry.

"You alright mate?" I ask. He looks at me with fear in his eyes.

"Y-yeah man. I'm fine." he chokes on his words. I never should have brought this up. I should have just waited to see Julie by myself.

Harry stays silent as we walk down the hall and enter the elevator. Louis whispers something into Harry's ear and a grin pulls at his lips.

Once we get to the main lobby, the screams and cries of our fans can be heard. Walking out of the elevator, the outside of the hotel is surrounded. Paparazzis and young,beautiful fans are pressed up against the windows;each and every one of them wanting the chance to meet us.

The five of us stand still, side by side, looking out at our fans. None of us speak.

"Aren't they beautiful?" I hear Niall whisper.

"They sure are.Absolutely gorgeous." Louis agrees.

"Isn't it crazy how far we've come? It's unbelievable how all of this happened. Think of all the fans that have been there for us from the beginning." Harry opens up.

"I feel like we've robbed them." his smile falls.

"Why would you feel that way?" I curiously ask.

"We took their lives. Before us, they had a real life. For most of them, we are their life now. It kills me inside to know that. These girls look up to us. We make then feel wanted, prefect, important. Sometimes I feel as if we are making them waste their lives-on people they might not ever meet in person. We all know that the majority of these girls want a relationship with us, but the truth is, they probably never will. These girls might know that, but some really do believe they will have a chance with us. There's only five of us...only five lucky girls will ever get that chance. To them we are their whole life, but to us, they're just another fan." Harry speaks the truth.

We wordlessly nod. No matter how harsh that may sound, the truth hurts. Our girls are still screaming their lungs out and there is no way we are going to be able to make it out the front entrance alive.

Paul jogs over to us and speaks to us, out of breath "This way boys. We're going out the back."

Turning away from our adoring fans, we make our way to the back entrance-one step closer to seeing Julie.

Hello my Nuggets!!! How was Harry's speech? I think this is the quickest update I've done in a while. If you haven't noticed I do a lot of shout-outs and I have about two that I still have to do because everytime I begin a new chapter I meet another amazing person and they have something that really benefits Wattpad.
