just remembered when the 1d movie came out — my mom took me and my sister to see it as a surprise. we were in the car across from the theatre and she told us to, “look at what movies they’re playing.” 
          	
          	me and my sister both turned to look at the display of movies on the wall outside of the theatre and as soon as we saw the 1d movie poster we both gasped and said, “one direction!” at the same time. never thought that memory would make me cry. <3

i’ve said sm already but i genuinely don’t think im ever getting over this. he was a part of something so big that shaped me into the person i am today. i wouldn’t be who i am without him and the rest of one direction. and despite everything that was brought to light about him, there is a massive part of me that loves him and will forever. 
          
          it feels like a huge chunk of my childhood just got ripped apart and i don’t really know how to feel. i have so many emotions swimming in my brain going in circles and its so difficult but im trying to understand them. im glad im not alone in feeling like this. i know that a lot of people are feeling just as conflicted as i am. 
          
          rest easy liam. i can’t believe im saying those words right now. i should be saying them decades from now, but here we are. 
          
          i love u xx.

theres honestly so much more i want to say but i dont quite know how to put it all into words. 
            
            i know that it’s okay to grieve him and mourn him, and still be upset about the things he’s done and said. im not mourning the abusive and manipulative person he became, but the boy he once was that i fell in love with twelve years ago. 
            
            i don’t know if that sounds insensitive, but i honestly don’t know how else to word it. thank u for the smiles and laughter u brought me for all these years. i’ll miss u.

i genuinely have no words. like i can’t process this. my thoughts go out to his family and loved ones. 
          
          i think theres a part in my brain that really doesn’t want to believe it. he was a massive part of my life for over 10 years and i just cant fathom it. idk what to say.
