Falling For The One

Chapter Nine

We arrived at the airport. My heart sank when I saw where we were. We were back at my hometown, Georgia. A place I was hoping wouldn't be stopping at. I am going to be on low key and hopefully my mom won't find me. I really don't want to deal with her.

"Marisa, what's wrong?" Liam put an arm around me.

"Its... This is where I was born and raised. It's the place I left."

Liam didn't know what to say. He put his stuff down and hugged me. "If you want to talk about it later, let me know. I'll always be here to listen."

"Thanks, Liam."

"The tour bus is outside waiting." Paul instructed us on the way to go.

I was sitting beside Harry and Louis on the bus.

"Hey Louie, can I talk to you for a second? Liam asked walking to the back of the bus.

"Sure." Lou followed him to the back.

(Louis POV)

"What's up?" I asked him. Something was bothering him. But what?

"When we were at the airport Marisa looked like she was ready to cry. I asked her what was wrong and she said this is her hometown. She wants to try to keep low key. She doesn't want her mom to find her." Liam took a breath and rubbed his neck. "You know we all care about her and I don't want her to get upset."

I wasn't sure what to do. I didn't want to see Marisa hurt. And I know none of the boys wanted that either.

"Thanks Mate." I gave Liam a hug. "What about her best friend? Did she say anything about her?"

"No... I wouldn't ask her, either. If she wants to see her, she'll tell us."

"You're right. Thanks again, Liam. You know how to make people feel better."

"No problem. Let's get back out there." Liam patted me on the back and walked out.

I know how much Marisa wanted to get away from this place. I hope we don't run into her mother. That could be bad. I'll just have to make sure I try my best to protect her. I hate seeing her upset.

(Marisa POV)

After Liam and Louis walked to the back to talk, I got on Twitter. People made gifs of Lou and I kissing. I chuckled at those. Directioners move fast when it comes to these boys. Everyone was saying how cute it was and how they supported us. I tweeted 'Maybe later I'll ask Liam how to do a twitcam? :) What do you guys say?' I answered some questions and decided to get off.

"When is the concert?" I asked while I put my laptop away.

"Tomorrow at 7. Sound check is at 6." Niall answered as he was eating.

I looked at my phone to check the time. It was 12:15. I got on Facebook from my phone and decided to message Sami. I still never gave her my number.

'Hey.'

'Hey. What's up?'

'Nothing really. I'm in Georgia'

'Really?! Let's hang out. I miss you!'

'I miss you, too. Meet me at Starbucks at 1?'

'I'll be there.'

Liam came back out and joined us.

"Guys. I'm going to meet someone at 1. Is that okay with  you guys?" I bit my lip.

"Yea. We'll be at the hotel in any minute." Liam answered.

Louis joined the rest of us. He looked like something was bothering him. I hope I didn't do anything. We got to the hotel and went to our rooms. It was three in a room. Harry, Louis and I in one, Niall, Zayn, Liam in the other. I put my bags on the floor by the wall.
