Baby, I would. (Jiall Boran love story.)

Chapter 20

Knowing it probably wasn't the best time to say "I told you so", Maddie just kept quiet as she turned to make some coffee. She'd save that for later.

Justin's phone rang on the counter and Louis glanced at it, before taking it and switching it off. Scooter had been ringing non-stop since his conversation with Justin, which wasn't exactly helping the situation at all.

"I'll ring our management and see if they can remove the pack of wild paparazzi from your front lawn, seeing as yours isn't good for shit right now." He said to Justin, before pulling out his phone and walking into the hall where he could talk privately.

"Are you okay?" Niall spoke in a quiet voice, barely audible from where Justin was standing by the door, looking out to the pool. He knew he would have to step carefully around this subject, especially after something as big as this had happened.

"We can get Scooter to tell everyone it's not you. Photoshop! She could have easily photoshopped it for all anyone else knows. I've seen loads of pictures of me and the boys, and you, and even me and Maddie that have never happened! What do they call them again... man-something.. manips - that's it!.." A babble of words that had clearly been pieced together with no thought or breath.

"No, Niall. That's just gonna make things worse for when he actually does come out, the fans are gonna go mental that he lied to them." A broad doncaster accent appeared from behind him, giving him a startle as he turned to look at Louis.

Niall was more confused that ever, now. What did Justin want? 

 "I just think-" Louis began to talk again.

Meanwhile, Maddie was watching Justin as he twirled his fingers through the drawstrings of his sweatpants. She really didn't want him to push Niall away, like he did with Chaz. But she didn't want him to be forced into dealing with his sexuality infront of millions of people.

She grabbed her coffee, and Louis', and moved to the doorway. "How about we go and see what the fans are saying, yeah Lou? Leave these two to chat." She smiled and signalled for him to follow her, before shutting the door - leaving the other two boys alone.

"Justin?" 

With no reply, Justin walked over and opened the laptop that was still on the table. 

He logged onto his twitter again and attempted to read some of the tweets that were coming in faster than anything.

Justin isn't gay omg it's clearly photoshop are u stupid.

I need to get on that photoshop level

What the hell??? This is a joke?????

I hate one direction ew get him away from them

I think it's kinda cute, it's like fanfic coming true

He sighed and moved to look at his DM's. 

Justin, I'm not happy. How can you be so irresponsable and stupid? I should have moved you out to LA with me instead of letting your go back to Atlanta

I thought I could trust you JB, now you've ruined everything and I'm going to have to do something I really didn't want to do.

You have two options: come back to LA immediately, or i'm sending Selena Gomez out to you for some publicity, lets stop these rumours before the tour starts ok.

Justin groaned and gritted his teeth, pushing his chair from behind him and storming over to the other side of the counter. "Look."

Carefully moving to read the messages, Niall watched as Justin's back clenched as his clutched at the counter.

Niall's eyes scanned the messages and he could physically feel his heart sink to the pit of his stomach. Neither of these options were good. It meant they would have to hide.

"Uh.. It's ok.." He started. "Justin, if you want to keep us a secret you have my support. But, I just think it would be easier, y'know." 

Niall moved to stand next to Justin. "If the fans knew now, then.." He trailed off and sighed.

"I just think it would be easier."

"I'm not going to LA." Justin practically growled.

Niall sighed again and put a tentative hand on his boyfriend' shoulder. "You don't have too,"

Justin relaxed slightly under the blonde boys' touch and turned to face him.

"Everyone will hate me. Whatever I do." He sighed and burried his head in the crook of Niall's neck.

In response, he recieved a warm ebrace and a kiss to head. "No they won't, they'll just be shocked-" He was interupted by his phone going off in his pocket. He reached to grab, seeing that it was Liam.

"Hey, mate, what's up?" 

"Management want to see you. Now. I tried stalling them but it was no use."

"Um.. fine. I'll be there in a second,"

"Good lad, see you in a bit."

Niall sighed and turned back to Justin, who had his head resting in his hands and his eyebrows furrowed. "I have to go, babe. I'm really sorry. I'll be back soon, ok? Don't do anything stupid." He kissed his head and sighed, before leaving to go to management.

A few minutes had past, not that Justin had even realised, though, before Maddie came back in and read the messages from Scooter.

"Oh my god." She whispered, looking up at her bestfriend with complete dispair in her eyes. "You can't go to LA!" Pushing the chair back in the same way Justin did, she ran around to his side.

"What are you gonna do?" 

"Get him to bring Selena out here." He said, looking straight ahead. "I have no other choice."
