Hold me tight & don't let go.

Prologue

“Don’t, don’t even try to explain. I don’t want to hear it” I whispered.
“But I didn’t do it! I promise! I love you” he cried.
“Just stop. God, I can’t even look at you right now. Just go, please, and don’t come back” I said sternly letting the tears fall.
“You don’t mean that. You can’t mean that. I can’t be over… it just can’t be”. His voice cracked, and a tear slide down his cheek.
The pouring rain started to soak him down. His hair began to stick to his face and the cold made him start to shiver violently.
“Yeah, well you should’ve thought of that!” I yelled.
“Baby, please. Don’t do this. I didn’t do anything to hurt you, I swear” he begged.
“I didn’t do this. You did this. Good bye Liam, its over” I whispered before quietly closing my door in his face.
“I’m not leaving! I’m not leaving you!” I heard him shout through the door.
“LEAVE LIAM! I DON’T WANT YOU ANYWHERE NEAR ME!” I yelled.
I fell to the floor with my back leaning against the door. I couldn’t hold back the tears, they kept pouring and pouring.
“I’m not giving up on us. We belong together, S. I love you forever, Spencer… it isn’t over” he said sniffling before I heard him turn around and slowly walk away.

I looked up at myself in the mirror. My mascara was running down my face. My dark hair was a mess, my brown eyes bloodshot.
Spencer Loomingdale, what are you doing to yourself? I thought.
The heavy rain hit my roof vibrating the whole house, and the harsh wind forced the doors and windows to rattle.

I walked through my hallway towards the kitchen feeling faint whenever I looked at one of the many photos of Liam and I.
I didn’t want to think of him, or the conversation we had just had.
I love him, more than anyone else in the entire world. And I didn’t want to right now.

I quickly made myself a coffee, sat down on my sofa and turned on the telly.
I attempted to drink, but I couldn’t manage it. I placed the cup down on the tea table and laid down across the couch.
I lay there crying silently, trying to sleep. But images of Liam wouldn’t leave my mind.
My heart was tearing itself up inside my chest and I couldn’t think.
I forced my eyes closed and tried to push Liam out of my head.

----------------

I woke up the next morning, my head pounding.
I walked slowly to the window. The streets were starting to flood, the thunder was howling and the lightning was blinding.
I looked outside and noticed Liam’s car was still in the driveway.
He must’ve walked home, I thought.
I checked the time on my phone: 5.19pm.
Whoa, I’ve slept through almost the entire day.

The TV was still on from last night and the 5 o’clock news was currently on.
The news reporter stood outside in the rain with a glum expression talking into his microphone.
I picked up the remote and turned up the volume.

I quickly poured myself another cup of coffee and sat down in front of the TV.
The words I heard caused me to stand up, drop my cup and watch (in shock) as it shattered all over the floor.

“And here we have the other 4 distraught members of the famous boy band One Direction to give a comment” the news reporter said.
Niall’s face filled the screen, tears streaming down his face.
“L-l-look, we all love Liam” Niall stuttered before bursting into tears whispered “I’m sorry” and passing the microphone over to Zayn.
“If Liam was here right now and it was one of the other boys in his position, he would know exactly what to say. Just please if anyone has heard from or seen Liam in the last 24 hours contact your local police” Zayn said strongly.
“Liam if you’re watching this… please come home” Harry whispered.
“I’m afraid we’re going to have to cancel a few tour dates until Liam is found… we’re so sorry to our fans that had tickets to those shows” Louis added.
“We will get the One Direction boys back later for a further statement. Thank you, boys” the news reporter sighed.
“And now a quick word from the local police sergeant” he added.
The Police Officer took the microphone from the news reporter and sadly said, “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Its my great sadness to inform you that from now, officially, Liam Payne is known as a missing person”.
