Don't Wanna Be Without You (A 1Direction fanfic)

Chapter 21: Hannah Evans

NIALL'S POV

We waved goodbye to the crowd and walked off stage. Beth smiled at me as she walked by us, onto the stage. I heard the crowd start screaming as she picked up her guitar and began to sing a song from her new album.

I  smiled as I listened to her golden voice sing the soft words. I looked over to my left and Harry was sitting in a chair, his head in his hands. Ever since he disappeared to America and had come back, he hadn't been the same. Something was bothering him and we all knew it. But Harry wouldn't tell anyone, not even Eleanor, who could get anything out of anyone.

Louis walked over to him and laid his hand on Harry's shoulder. Harry shrugged it off and got up and walked away to his dressing room, closing the door behind him.

Louis looked hurt. Harry and Lou were best mates, and Harry wasn't telling him anything at all. I walked over to him, "It's okay Lou, he'll come around"

"It's not that, Niall." he said, "I know whats bothering him. I know why he went to America."

I gave him a confused look, "Why?" Louis looked up at me, and just gave me a look. then it came to me, "You don't think he went to see...her?" Louis slowly nodded his head. "Really?" I asked in disbelief

Louis sighed, "Well, Niall, give me another reason he'd go to America and then come back like this." he said, gesturing to Harry's closed dressing room door.

I shrugged, "I guess you're right..but..why?" I asked, "He made it very clear that he didn't want to see her again.."

"I know." Louis said with a confused look, "Whatever..we'll leave him be and let him figure everything out. If he wants to talk to us about it, then he can."

I nodded in agreement.

BETH'S POV

I sang the last line of my song and the crowd cheered like crazy. I smiled and waved, "Thank you so much, you guys are amazing! I love you all! Have a goodnight everyone!" I said, turning and walking off stage.

I set my guitar down and took out my earpiece. I grabbed a bottle of water that was sitting out for me and opened it, finishing the entire thing in just a few gulps.

I felt arms wrap around my waist and hot breath on my neck. I smiled as I breathed in Niall's warm scent. He kissed my neck, just below my ear, "Great job out there tonight." he said into my ear

I giggled and pulled his arms from around me and turned to face him, "Thanks, babe. You too." I said, giving him a little kiss. I stepped back a little, "So your birthday is tomorrow, what am I going to do?" I asked myself out loud

He smiled, "You don't need to do anything, babe."

"Oh yes I do!" I said, "You just threw me the coolest party in the world! I have to return the favor."

Niall's grin grew, "Whatever you want." he said, pulling me in for another kiss.

"Let's head out!" Paul yelled

All of us followed and got on the bus.

I woke up in Niall's bed. I got up and sluggishly walked to the bathroom. I took a quick shower and threw on a pair of high waisted white shorts. Along with a gray cardigan and a red striped shirt.

 I walked into the living room of my flat, Louis was sitting on the couch watching TV, "Hey, can you bring me to the store? We're out of cereal."

 Louis got up, "Sure thing, Elizabeth!"
