And how hard would it be to keep your silence about their existence now that you’re falling apart on national television?

At times they still fought but they were friends at the end of the day and that’s all that matters. Koby’s the playboy and Palmira is the girl no guy can ever get a date with. So which one is the one who falls for the cliché of loving your best friend?

The five boys of One Direction are suddenly thrown back in time. The friendships they held dear cease to exist in this life and old ones are still present. Harry Styles was forced to spend time with the 'friends' that had deserted him long ago while Liam Payne was expected to endure the bullying he'd finally put behind him. Niall Horan was resorted to crying every night, reliving the grief he'd felt the day his best friend died. The best friend was right there, in front of him, perhaps teasing the poor boy. Louis Tomlinson was left having to fake smiles with his ex-girlfriend Hannah, but all his heart begged him to do was to find Harry and tell him that there was nobody else in the world for him. Zayn Malik was simply left to relive all of his past mistakes; being 'Bradford's Bad Boi' was a little tougher than he remembered it being. Can these boys make it through their pasts without a hitch until they see each other again at the X Fator Auditions or will they buckle under the pressure?
