Is it because of my personality?  That they don’t want me in the band?”

“No.  Don’t listen to them Liam.  Your personality is amazing.  Don’t think of what those stupid fans say, there are going to be those people who don’t understand.”

“Don’t understand what?”

“That we have feelings, that we’re also human beings, just like them.   So you have to ignore.”

“It’s impossible to.  To know there are thousands or people that hates you… THOUSANDS Louis.   But of course you don’t know that because everyone loves you, Louis.”

“Are you even listening to yourself Liam?”

“I am.  And it’s the truth.”  Liam whispered into Louis’ arms.  Liam held his tears, but as Louis hugged him tighter once again and whispered, “You know it isn’t the truth.”

 Liam he burst into tears, right as the thunder and lightning shocked in the sky.  The hail pelted and knocked against the window. 

Liam sobbed. Liam sobbed because of the events that have been happening to him, all these months.  Hate.  They thought he was too serious; they thought he didn’t belong in the band. They’ve always said that he didn’t deserve a second chance.

  That second chance of being in the X-Factor and deserving it.  Sure the fans act all nice, but sometimes he really wonders how they can love one whole band but hate just that one band member.  Oh right; he’s the boring one while everyone is that fun and unique type.

“If it isn’t the truth, then why does it seem so true and real?” Liam whispered while choking on a sob. “It has to be true.”  Louis cupped Liam’s face and made Liam look at him. “Look at me, Liam.  You are perfect.  You have that personality that makes everyone want to smile. You have that power to make everything feel better; even if it might not work out.   You have that smile that makes the room bright up.” 

  Liam stared at Louis.  Liam has always been closer to Louis the most throughout the band.  Liam was bi.  And now he’s in love with his best friend.  His best mate.  For a while now. 

  Liam laughed sheepishly in his head.  Right, tell him that you love him; and when the press figures out, the fans are going to hate on me even more.’

“ Y-You love me?”  Liam looked up to see Louis, shocked, yet pleased at the same time.  Liam looked away, ashamed of himself.  Did he just say that?  Liam stood up, and rushed outside of his door to the nearest bathroom. 

  Trying to opening it, he heard a voice.

“Hold up please!  Need to do my hair!” 

  Liam couldn’t wait, he thought.  He could feel tears forming, almost regretting what he’s about to do.  Liam shook his head, knowing he didn’t have time to feel guilty.  He rushed to Louis’ room, to see the room a mess.  Liam couldn’t help but groan at the sight of the mess.  As he looked around to see the room empty.  He saw bathroom in Louis’ room empty.  As he went into the bathroom and closed it. 

  Liam was trying to breathe evenly, though it was impossible; because he knew that he had to do it.  He had to.  As he opened the cabinet in the bathroom; he took it out.

  Louis was still in Liam’s room, dazed.  Liam… Loving the crazy Louis?  The Louis that made so many mistakes, and Liam always forgiving Louis?  The one who everyone thought was dating Eleanor but only Eleanor knew Louis was in love with Liam and dated Louis so just in case people thought Louis was gay, he couldn’t be because he was ‘dating’ Eleanor…
