Just friends?...yeah right...

Chapter 21

--Nour's P.O.V--

We got out the bathroom and everyone was there, the gang was in tears.

We each hugged each other and

cried together. I stepped out, "When are they leaving?" I asked.

"Next week." Robin answered, nervous for our reaction.

Zayn shook his head and pulled us into another hug. I am really going to miss these boys. We have had so much fun together. It's not fair they have to leave. We all said our good byes and all decided to meet up tomorrow at Liam's place to start talking about plans.

************

I came home and explained to my family everything that happened. We were all so upset and Mama said she was going to try and get them to change their minds. Why don't Anne and the rest of the mom's have any say in this? It's not fair.

I couldn't go to sleep. I can't lose my best friends. We've been through so much together.

I cried myself to sleep and had horrible dreams.

***************

I woke up with a horrible headache and it only got worse when I sat up. I took a shower and got dressed. I made Jaiden breakfast and made my way to Liam's house.

When I arrived we all sat in the living room. Nobody was smiling, nobody was cracking jokes, nobody was happy.

Robin, Anne, Harry, Liam, Louis, Eleanor, Zayn, Danielle, Niall, and me sat in a circle at his dining room table.

"Why do we have to go back?" Niall broke the silence.

"We missed you guys and think you would be better off in England." Robin stated simply.

"Nope" Niall replied.

"Why don't we work some things out." Anne suggested.

"Like what?" Harry snapped.

That's when an idea popped into my head.

"Each one of you audition for X-factor!" I blurted out my thoughts.

They all looked confused.

"Each one of you boys sing better than anyone I've ever heard! Try out!" I said, bolting out of my chair.

"How does that help our situation?" Louis asked.

"It would be fun and we would get to see you on tv! If you guys end up winning, you will get to tour around. I'm pretty sure you get to tour the states as well." I told them.

"Only one person can win though" Liam said.

"Oh, right. Well, whoever wins, wins. It doesn't matter. It's worth a shot!" I yell.

"She's right!" Eleanor agreed.

"You guys might as well try it!" Danielle urged.

"Guys, it would be great, fun, and you guys do have the talent." Anne said.

"We'll think about it" Liam said, sensibly.

"I still don't want to leave you" Harry whispered in my ear.

I looked at him and as soon as I saw his face the water works were coming back. I grabbed his arm and lead him to Liam's room. I laid down on the bed I patted the spot next to me so Harry could join.

He slipped in and lifted the covers for both of us to get in.

"Harry, this would be a great opportunity for you." I said, carressing his cheek.

"Do you think I can even make it through auditions?" he asked.

"You sound amazing when you sing. You give me goosebumps and I get dizzy from how amazing you are." I said.

A light shade of pink came to his face, he looked down then looked right back up.

"Why don't you try out as well?" he asked.

"I'm American, I've lived here forever and I'm nowhere near as good as you boys are." I told him.

"You sing like an angel Nour. Don't say that!" he told me.

"Thanks"

"Not all of us can win Nour. What will happen to us as a family?" he asked.

"Honestly, these boys won't let X-factor get between you. If it does then you realize the truth."

He nodded slowly, "I don't want to leave you!"

"Harry, you're going to have to leave either way! This way is just more fun for you and shows off your talent."

He put his forehead on mine, he whispered, "I might not see you again."

I let more tears come out, " Harry, I promise I'll visit and you'll visit me! I promise! You think I can live without those curls? Hell naw!"

"We better see eachother every break you have from school and every break I have from X-factor, if I get in." he told me, hands latched to my waist and foreheads connected.

"I promise" was all I said.

After our little cry fest, we walked back out and Harry announced he was auditioning for X-factor. I explained to the boys everything I told Harry and they all said they would try out too. I hope everything works out for the best.

I had to go home to make sure my family was safe and so did Eleanor and Danielle. I told my mom everything that happened and she seemed happy for them as well.

I'm going to miss these guys so much. I cannot believe I'm not going to see them everyday like I do now.

I hope everything turns out for the best...again.
