The Stars

Best Friend

"Yup."

"Omg! I haven't talked to you since you got signed to Syco Records!" I said with obvious excitement.

"I know, it's been way too long."

"Woah this is, wow. I never excpected this." I could barely speak. Not because he was a big celeb now or anything, he was the same Liam.  I actually don't even know why.

"You didn't think your BFF would forget your birthday did you?"

"Well, I mean, you are busy now that you're a big star." I said. He chuckled a good Liam laugh.

"I took some time off."

"What do you mean?" I asked now confused.

"Look out your window, at the cherry tree." Immediatley I ran to the window and looked toward the monstorous cherry tree in my backyard. 

"This is not happening." I barely managed to say.

"Yes it is."

Under the cherry tree stood none other than Liam Payne holding a humungous happy birthday baloon and a large cake.  My phone fell out of my hands as I darted down the stairs and outside not stopping for a second. 

"Liam!" I shouted and ran up to him and gave him a hug.

"Hey I thought we already got through introductions." He said.

"I can't believe you! You're the best friend ever." I said.

"I know I am. Even Niall agrees." I suddenly noticed Niall standing there.

"Niall!" I said trying my hardest not to fangirl.  Thankfully, I had good self control. 

"Happy Birthday." he said with a big smile on his face.  He had a guitar slung around his shoulder.  He must have been the one playing guitar while Liam sang happy birthday.

"So," Liam began,"Let's get this party started."

Niall's POV

Woah.  All I could say was woah.  She was amazing.  I didn't even know her and I was already scared to talk to her.  The moment I saw her my heart practically stopped.  Sure, I had seen lot's of beautiful girl, but this was different.  Curse my trouble with girls. 

Remember why you're here!  I thought to myself.  Liam had two reasons for coming here.  1.) He wanted to wish her a happy 18th birthday.  They were best friends before he went off to the X Factor and he hadn't talked to her for awhile.  2.) He wanted to win her over.  Enough said.  Sadly, I was his wingman.

Why has every girl I've ever wanted taken?

Liam's POV

Finally, I'd arrived.  Finally, I was able to see her.  Finally, I had a chance to win her over.

Truthfully, I'd thought about her a lot over the past couple years.  I didn't tell anybody though.  I couldn't.  The lads would've told me to hike up my skirt and take a plane to her like I was now.  Sadly, I hadn't had the courage to do so in the past.  In fact, I couldn't even talk to her after I'd left.  I was scared she'd hate me for leaving her at first, and after awhile I thought she'd hate me for not talking to her.  For quite a long time I ignored it, but after awhile I couldn't.  Finally, I decided it was time.  Time to find her and soon tell her how I felt. 

I really hope she feels the same.
