Natalie's POV
I stood in front of him tears running down my cheeks. "Liam we need to talk." I whispered barely able to talk through the tears. "Liam I love you so much, but I can't do this anymore. I...I can't deal with the media and the rumors and the hate. I can't deal with not seeing you for months at a time. I'm sorry." I told him. I grabbed my bag full of my stuff and took one last look at him. "Natalie please..." He begged. It took me all my strength not to turn around. I kept walking and finally made my way out the door and into my car. I drove to my own flat and when I parked I realized that I would never see him again. I couldn't put myself through the heartbreak again. I made my way inside and collapsed onto my bed and buried myself and my feelings in the blankets.

*Two weeks later*

I haven't been out of the house in two weeks. I looked like a mess and felt like one too. I had put myself in more pain by breaking up with Liam. He was the light in my life. His smile haunted me. The smile that had made me smile, cry, angry, and happy. His brown eyes were images that were burned into the back of my head. The same eyes that I felt myself staring into for hours at a time. The mesmerizing gaze that he cast upon me sometimes. His words and voice that rang in my ears. All the times he called me beautiful or times he calmed me down after I had gotten worked up. The same voice that used to whisper sweet nothings into my ear to lull me to sleep. His soft and gentle touch was what I missed the most. The way he wrapped his arms around my waist when we danced, the way he ran his fingers through my hair, the way he rubbed my back in comfort when I cried and the way he always hugged me with his strong arms to let me know I was protected. Those memories of him crossed my mind all the time. Those memories broke my heart worse than anything in the world. I finally got up from my bed, took a shower, and got ready. But for what exactly. I had called in sick for the day and I had no plans. I finally realized what my mind had wanted me to do. It wanted me to go to him. I jumped into my car and drove over to his flat. I stood in front of his door and knocked on it three times.

Liam's POV
I was drunk out of my mind. It was the only thing I could do to try and keep her off my mind and yet it couldn't even do that. Images of her beautiful face crossed my mind. Her smile haunted me. The one I always tried so hard to get from her. The one that made me weak at the knees. Her deep blue eyes stare me down from somewhere. Those blue eyes that I drowned in every time I looked into them. Her quiet and calming voice that she would often use to calm me down if I got jealous and then giggle when she realized I was jealous. Her soft and gentle touch was something I missed a lot. The way she placed her hands on my face before she kissed me, the way she would massage my shoulders when I was stressed, the way she wiped tears off my cheeks when I got overwhelmed, and the way her fingers would trace the ink on my skin. The memories hurt more than I thought they would. The hurt was so unbearable. I was done, done with not having her in my life, done with never being able to be with her again or hold her tightly in my arms. I walked into the bathroom and collapsed on the floor. I heard a knock on the door  and I thought it was just one of the boys so I ignored it, thinking that they would go away eventually. I took another swig out of my beer bottle and grabbed a razor from underneath the sink and looked at it's sharp edge. "I love you." I whisper to myself. "Liam!" I heard her voice shout. I dropped the blade and looked up to see Natalie standing in the doorway tears running down her face.

Natalie's POV
I didn't get an answer so I tried the door and I was surprised to see that it was unlocked. I walked around and didn't find him until I stopped in the doorway of the bathroom and I noticed Liam on the floor with a razor in his hand. "Liam!" I shouted feeling tears slip out of my eyes. He dropped the razor and looked at me. "Natalie?" He said as if it was a question. I launched myself on to his lap and kissed his lips passionately. I could taste the alcohol, but I didn't care. "Baby please don't do that. I'm so sorry I left, it hurt so much and I still love you. I never stopped, I never would've stopped no matter what." I sobbed when we separated. I cupped his face in my hands and he leaned into my touch. "I love you too. I cant live without you." He whispered his eyes bloodshot. I kissed his face and then his hand and down to his arm where there were no cuts thank God. "I can't live without you Liam. Not being here with you and knowing that we couldn't be together was unbearable. I love you and I'm so sorry." I told him. He only nodded and wrapped me up in his strong arms. "I didn't really think about what I was doing." He slurred, I could feel his tears fall into the crook of my neck where his face was. I ran my hands through his hair until the tears stopped and he looked at me with slightly happy brown eyes. "I'm just glad you're here and we're together again." He murmured. I nodded and helped him to his feet and made sure he didn't fall while making our way to his bedroom. I sat him on the bed and helped him get out of his clothes and he slipped underneath the covers seeing as he was still pretty drunk. "Natalie can you please stay with me?" He asked giving me his puppy dog eyes. "Of course." I said slipping next to him and letting him wrap his arms around me. "I'm never letting you go again." He whispered pressing a sloppy kiss on my forehead.
