comforting him

Liam: Today you and Liam were in the studio because the boys were working on their new album. Liam had been trying multiple times in the past half hour to try and hit this one note and it just wasn't working. You could see that each time Liam would just get angrier and angrier every time that he didn't hit the note. You hate seeing him so frustrated at himself and you kept telling him to take a break and come out of the booth but he refused to until he got the note. After much persuading, you finally got their vocal coach to talk some sense into him and she said that if he didn't stop straining his voice he would loose it and not be able to sing any notes at all for a few days. That scared him and he was immediately out of the booth. Everyone left the room so that you and Liam could have some alone time. When he walked out you could tell that he was pissed and you welcomed him into a hug with open arms. Liam just wrapped his arms around your waist and buried his face in your neck. "It's alright Li, stop stressing yourself out babe. Today just isn't the day and it's fine." You cooed as you rubbed his back and rocked lightly from side to side. You then actually saw Liam do something that you have never seen him do before. Liam was actually crying. You never thought something would break him down so much that he would cry. You didn't say anything and you just pulled him over to the couch that was in the room. You then sat down and Liam sat next to you. He then placed his head on your shoulder continuing to cry and you moved your arm so that it wrapped around his shoulder and you started rubbing his arm. After a few minutes of sitting like this Liam stopped crying and he sat back up straight. You looked over at him and then you crawled into his lap and hugged him. "I still love you." You said and it brought a small smile to his lips. "Thanks baby. I still love you too." He then placed his lips against your's. Once he pulled away, Liam rested his forehead against your's and said, "Thank you for being here for me." "Any time babe." You said again and you placed a kiss on his nose bringing your favorite smile back to his lips. Soon after everyone returned back into the room and Liam said that he wanted to give the note one more try. He looked back at you and you smiled at him encouragingly. Liam took a deep breath and went back into the booth and soon the music started to play again. The part came up where he had to sing the note and he hit perfectly. You stood up and ran over to hug him, almost knocking him over. "I knew you could do it!" You said and then you kissed him. "Thank you."

Zayn: Late last night, Zayn had texted you saying that his dog wasn't doing good. You knew that his heart was breaking watching his dog suffer. He asked you the following morning if you would go with him to go put the dog down. You said that you would since you knew that Zayn would really need someone to be there with him. When you got to the animal hospital, Zayn asked the doctor if there was anything that he could do for the dog that would make him better and keep him alive. You were already holding Zayn's hand but you put your other hand on his shoulder to get him to stop talking. You and him both know that this was the best thing that he could do for the dog since it was so sick and clearly suffering. Zayn's eyes started to tear up and you just hugged his side as tight as you possible could. You let Zayn have his own time with his dog as they put it down and after it was done, Zayn walked back into the waiting room where you were, crying his eyes out. You got all the papers signed for him and you drove him back home since he clearly wasn't in a good condition to drive. When you got home, Zayn immediately walked up to his bedroom to cry in his bed. You knew that he was suffering from a broken heart and it made your own heart break. You decided to make him some tea and when it was finished you walked it up to his room. His room was pitch black and when you turned on the lights, you found Zayn buried under a pile of blankets that were on his bed. You placed the cup of tea on his bedside table and you then climbed into the bed next to him. He immediately pulled you into him and you looked up at his tears stained face. You reached your hand up to wipe away the tears and you gave Zayn a kiss. "I love you." Zayn said. "I love you too." "Thank you for coming with me today. I probably couldn't have done that without you." "Of course baby. I know how much he meant to you and I hated seeing him in pain just as much as you did." Zayn nodded his head and pulled you closer to him. He placed a kiss on the top of your head and you two spent the next few hours in bed talking about all of the good times that you had with his dog.
