Unexpected Love (Niall Horan Fanfiction/Love Story) ON HOLD

Chapter 17

Liam's Pov

I was honestly so nervous about leaving the hospital. I knew people and paps knew something was up, probably me since the lads had left the hospital but I hadn't exited with them. The lads told me they haven't tweeted anything since that night, so I knew everyones eyes would be on me. Although I wasn't ready to tell the world about my arm, and we wern't 100% sure what we were going to do about tour. Everyone created a little circle around me and the driver and car was out front. We put our heads down and ran towards the car. It was odd walking, let alone running since I hadn't done it for a number of days, and I had extra weight on me; my arm. I heard pap after pap call my name. "Liam!" "Liam over here!" "What's going on with you?!"

"Is it true your mum is dying?"

"Do you really have cancer?"

"Did you actually have a child?!"

Whoa. I am a guy...where did they possibly get that? We finally made it into the car. Even though the car wasn't that far from the door, paps had us surrounded. It was almost kind of unusual. How? You may ask. I mean don't paps do that all the time? Yes, but they never pretty much completley deprive you of personal space. But whatever. We survived. It's over..for now. "Everyone ok?" I asked. Everybody nodded. "So...What are we going to do now?" I asked. "Well, lad you need to get some rest, so I guess just go home and watch a film?" Louis suggested. All of us liked the idea so it was settled. "Can we stop and pick up a pizza or something?" Niall begged. Everyone looked towards me. I guess my daddy direction role is still in place. "Um, yea sure why not? I think that sounds good." Niall then turned to the driver and told him the adress of the pizza place. It took about ten minutes, then we were there. "I'll go get the pizza!" Niall yelled cheerfully. Man, that lad and his appetite. "I will come with." Harry said. They then both got out and went in to pick up the pizza.

Niall's Pov

I think we can al let out a sigh of relief that Liam is out of the hospital. Once we left the hospital, we decided to just go home, let Li rest in his own home, watch a film, and just chill, without having to worry. I suggested we get a pizza, so we drove to the pizza place and Harry and I went in to pick it up. "Do you smell that cheesy goodness Harry?" "Yes Niall. It smells very nice in here." Harry chuckled. We got in line. As we chatted, three fans came up to us and asked for a photo. We glady took the photos, and then we actually got into a conhversation with them. One of them, Tilly then started to ask questions. "So how is everything?" "Good, good." I replied. The second one, Diana then asked, "Are you guys excited for the upcoming tour?" Harry told her he was. I wasn't exactly sure where this was going, but I felt like this was going to go from zero to ten like that. Partly because, I felt odd because we were half lying since we didn't even know when tour would be anymore. I was jusrt waitng for the one question that just set things off. The last girl, Michelle asked, "So what's been going on with Liam? There have been photos in magazines with you two, Zayn and Louis entering and exiting a hospital with some girl, without Liam." And there it is. The bombshell question. I didn't know how to answer so I glanced at Harry he looked as uncomfortable as I did. My palms started to sweat. *Ding-ding* Yes! Saved by the bell! "Oh, um sorry we have to go, looks like our pizza is ready." I rambled then grabbed Harry's wrist and dragged him over to the cashier. Thank goodness for the beel that rings when the next pizza is ready. I wasn't even sure if it was our pizza or not, but any chance to keep us from having to answer that question I would take. Thankfully, it was our pizza and it didn't seem like we were lying now. Those fans were burning holes in my back with their stares. Before they could even try to ask another question Harry goes, "It was nice meeting you girls, hope to see you soon!" And we left.

When we got back in the car we must've looked a little shaken up. "You lads alright?" Liam chuckled.

"No." Harry blurted out. "What's wrong?" Nicki questioned. "These three fans came up to us." I started. "Then they asked us questions about tour..." Harry said. "We already felt kind of bad not being 100% honest," I went on. "Then they drilled us with questions about Liam." Harry finished. "Wha-what did you say?" Liam questioned. "Nothing. The pizza bell rang, then we ran." I informed him. He let out a sigh if relief, quickly to fdollow that up with, "Don't stress about it. They will soon know the truth." "She also mentioned Miranda." I told them. "You didn't-" Miranda started. "No of course not." I assured her. She and I haven't been ready to announce us to the world yet, and I am not planning too until she is ready. We pulled up to the house.
