Niall groans, dropping his face into his hands as he sits in his seat in the lecture hall, waiting for his first week of classes in London to be over.

It's been an eventful week, with starting his new job, working on the paper he so stupidly volunteered to do, getting the hang of the new classes and even newer environment, finishing moving in, meeting Zayn, dealing with Louis and Nick, and last but not least, begging Liam to talk to him.

Liam started pulling away on Tuesday, but Niall brushed it off as just the distance and busy schedules causing conflict, not to mention the time zones being difficult, but that phone call when he was at work on Wednesday really let him see how Liam was actually taking this whole thing.

He never thought Liam would be so upset with him, because he was so supportive of everything at first, but now he knows that Liam is actually really angry and hurt.

Which angers and hurts him because he thought Liam was supportive and accepting of Niall's decision to move, but things don't always work out the way he's hoping - or so he's learned.

"Hey mate, you alright?" Nick asks as he and his boyfriend take their seats, one on each side of Niall. They like making a little Niall sandwich so both of them can talk to him without causing too much of a disturbance.

"Liam won't talk to me," Niall mumbles, pulling his hands away from his face, "Here, check this out," He grabs his phone off of his lap, where it fell when he dropped it, and hands it to Louis.

"Jesus, Ni," Louis breaths out, handing the phone over to Nick, who takes all of about thirty seconds to read the whole thread.

"What is his problem?" Nick asks, locking Niall's phone and setting it on the little table desk connected to Niall's chair.

"I don't know! He was totally fine with me moving here at first, he even got drunk with me and we made that announcement video, and it was just a blast. And then he helped me with all the live streams and videos and moving, he came with me to VidCon, as you remember, and was adamant about making sure I had everything I needed and was moved in properly.
