"You're always the one who gets away," Liam whispered, his voice teasing as he reached out to pull a strand of hair behind my ear.
"I'm not going anywhere," I said, a little breathless. "You're the one who's always disappearing-off to practice or a gig or whatever."
His smile softened, and for a moment, the world felt smaller, like it was just the two of us sitting on that old bench behind the school, the sound of distant laughter filling the air.
"Maybe," he said, leaning in just a little closer, "but one day, I'm coming back for you."

But as life pulled them apart, Liam became the global star she never expected him to be, while she carved her own path. Now, years later, fate brings them back together. Old sparks reignite, but can a love that started in the past survive the pressures of fame and time?

Echoes of the Past || Liam Payne
The news broke like a wave, drowning everything else in its path. Liam Payne, gone. I stared at the screen, heart in pieces, trying to grasp that the boy who had once brought me so much joy would never sing again, never smile again. There was no warning, no chance to say goodbye. "If only..." I whispered, clutching their iPod as tears slipped down my cheeks. "If only I could have stopped it..." The words hung in the air, heavy with a yearning so intense it almost felt tangible. The room blurred around them, and before I could process what was happening, everything went dark. When the world came back into focus, I wasn't sitting in my room anymore. The familiar hum of city life faded away, replaced by the soft strum of a guitar and a voice I knew all too well. "You're insecure, don't know what for..." My breath hitched. It couldn't be... Liam.Complete
