Adopted by 1D [Completed]

Part 41 - Flower Shop

The next day in 1D’s house never is the same. Louis, Harry, Liam and Niall become really rare talking to each other. Still frustrated, depressed, sad and confused. Moreover, today they have a M&G in the mall that they need to attend. Hopefully directioners would understand if there are only 4 signs on their autographs.

Louis is walking around the house, trying to calm himself down. Suddenly when he’s about to pass Elena’s room, he stands for a moment for a stare at the door. Then slowly he walks closer and opens the door.

The atmosphere is really silent. Few weeks staying in this room, she already left her one and only scent. Lily flower has always been Elena’s favorite scent and Louis knows that. He sits on the bed and tries to remember the stuffs about her. Suddenly the teddy bear that is lying perfectly beside the pillow – catches his eyes.

He picks it up and stares at the face of the teddy. It reminds him of Elena’s happy face when she received the teddy that he gave. Louis smiles unconsciously. Then a tear suddenly rolls down on his cheek and he immediately hugs the teddy bear depressed-ly.

“I’m sorry, I can’t take care of her.” He said with full of regrets.

Niall can never think about something worse than that. Everything that he does always gets interrupted by the thoughts of Zayn and Elena being gone. Even when he’s playing his guitar.

The more Zayn and Elena hang around in his head, the more he thinks that he should make a move alone. He looks out the window, people are walking around happily down there. Zayn and Elena aren’t possible that they’re sad out there.

Suddenly he puts off his guitar and grabs his hoodie jacket. He gets out of his room, suddenly he meets Liam.

“Niall where are you going?”

Niall stops. “I’m… looking for fresh air.” Then he leaves.

Liam looks at Niall’s back, thinking. This is the hard day for the lads.

So Niall puts on his hoodie and walks out the house. Maybe after a little hang out, he’s going to feel better. Not a mile away from his house yet, paparazzis start to take pictures of him. He doesn’t look good and just looks away. He knows that this would happen anyway.

Some fans even start coming on his way, ask for a picture. He just smiles forcedly to their cameras while one of them is filming all of that.

“Niall how are you?” Said the girl who holds the video recorder.

Niall looks up at her and smiles sweetly. “I’m fine. Thanks.”

Moments like this have always been Niall’s favorite these days. Fans who can come and go, can be the reason why he smiles and gets motivated.

He continues walking around and doesn’t notice that he’s going too far already. He looks around, the civilization becomes stranger to him. Until he sees a flower shop across the street that he’s walking on. Something comes to his mind when he sees that flower shop. Like, someone he knew lives there.

[Let’s go to Niall’s POV!]

I walk crossing the street and get closer to the flower shop. ‘Living Life with Flowers’ is written above the entry door. Oh, I remember now. This is the shop where I bought flowers for my mom’s birthday last month. How could I forget?

“Niall?”

Suddenly I hear someone said my name. I turn around and it’s a girl, holding a rose with her left hand, staring at me.

“You’re Niall, right?”

She asked one more time to make sure. I look at her, figuring her face.
