No One's POV

(Back in London)

"So Louis, I've heard you say in a lot of your other interviews that you're just not interested in any other girls any more. And because of that statement, many rumors are flying about. Would you care to end the rumors and tell the world what you really mean?" The interviewer asked.

"Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not gay." Louis announced a bit aggravated.

"Yeah, all those rumors about Lou being gay are complete rubbish." Niall added.

"Sometimes a man just needs his privacy and deal with his own life, you know?" Liam stated. 

"Yeah, Louis has been through an emotional roller coaster last year. And it would be nice to have everyone give him some space and stay out of his personal life." Zayn commented.

"We're not saying that we don't want anyone to talk to us. That is not the case. We still love the fans and want to talk to them and meet them, it's just we want the same respect we give in return. And that goes for everyone." Harry stated.

"You see, I can't seem to find other girls attractive, because there is one in particular that I just can't seem to let go." Louis confessed.

"Really? Who's the lovely girl that's holding on to your heart? Is it Eleanor?" The interviewer asked. 

"Eleanor is still a lovely girl, but no. It isn't her. This woman… she's absolutely wonderful, and I let her slip away." Louis' head dropped. It was obvious that he was feeling low.

"Okay, let's move on to the next question." Liam spoke out of turn while patting Louis on the back. 

"It's okay Boobear." Harry comforted him. The audience was silent. Like they were feeling a bit guilty and sorry for Louis. 

Harry's POV

The interview was a mess. Right now we were sitting backstage while Management chewed our asses. They were furious that we gave out too much information. Louis kept his head hung low. I couldn't believe how insensitive Management was being right now. Louis' heart is aching and they didn't even care. I was at my limit. 

"C'mon! Louis is hurting here and all you care about is image? Why don't you have a bit of a heart and console him. He's human! We're all humans! Not puppets!" I lashed out. My heart was pumping and my adrenaline was peaking. The boys were surprised by my outburst, but it was worth it. 

"Listen here. We do care. We just don't want things to get too out of hand and have the tabloids and paparazzi going crazy to get more information. And we're looking out for Nikki as well. We don't want her to get exposed and have the papz and fans putting more stress on her. I'm sure she's already dealing with a lot of her own personal issues that she doesn't need more." Management exclaimed. I let out a sigh knowing that they were right. I looked around the room noticing that the rest of the boys felt defeated as well. 

"Alright boys, your flight is in a few hours. Let's get going." Paul entered the room. 

We all didn't hesitate and left. Zayn and Niall were walking ahead of me and Liam mumbling about how stupid and annoying the situation was. They were on Louis' side on this one. If Louis loved someone that much, and if Nikki loved him, then I was sure Nikki wouldn't mind… right? Louis had his head hung low trailing not far behind us. Lou wasn't feeling really himself at the moment. We all decided to give him some space to breathe, and then one of us would talk to him. It was most likely going to be me or Liam, but Niall and Zayn would be a good chat as well.
