Getting The Direction Back In One Direction

Making Promises

"Aright," I sighed, "Night Jo-Jo," 

"Night Em," I signed off and climbed into the covers exhausted, ideas for tomorrow circulating through my mind and making it hard to sleep. Finally I got up and slipped into a swimsuit, glad the hotel had the pool open all night. I grabbed my coverup and slipped out of the room closing it behind me with a small click. I walked down the hallways to the elevator until I pressed the button and waited for it to reach my floor. I stepped inside, pressing the one button, and it closed it's doors beginning it's descent to the bottom floor. I stepped out of the elevator and walked to the pool. Needless to say I was shocked. 

It was a Olympic size swimming pool, it had a glass ceiling that the moon shone through and it had a little wall that people could swim under to go outside and swim. (A/N I've seen one and it was amazing! They even had a barbecue outside and occasional contests for little kids.) I quickly shed my cover up and walked to the diving board and jumped in swimming laps, like I use to do in the lake. It felt relaxing to swim again, I headed towards the little wall and swam outside looking around. There was a little water mushroom umbrella thing, a few rafts and a small water slide. It felt like I was in my own in the world. No one there to make me cry or to judge me. No one to get hurt and no one to care. It was almost scary it was that relaxing. I took a deep breath and swam down to the bottom. I opened my eyes and sat down looking around me, the moonlight sending waves of light underneath and the rafts making dark shadows. It was so relaxing and serene. I closed my eyes, savoring this moment before I surfaced for air, gasping like there was no tomorrow. 

I climbed out of the pool, dried my feet before slipping into my shoes and wrapping the towel around me before I walked into the elevator and headed to my floor. I quickly showered and dressed in some comfy sweats and Josh's old hood again before I looked through my suitcase for my book and started reading, knowing I wouldn't be able to sleep at all tonight.

I sighed, closing my book before stretching and checking the clock. 11:07. I walked over to my suitcase and grabbed some sweats and a baggy hoodie before walking into the bathroom. I put my hair up in a messy bun and grabbed some eyeshadow to make it look like I've been crying and didn't sleep at night. Feeling accomplished, I pulled the hood up before leaving my suite to go and eat. I walked down the street to go to McDonalds and grab a small snack. 

"May I take your order?" the cashier asked in a bored tone. 

"Ketchup only hamburger and a large caramel frappe please." I responded pulling out some money. 

"£4.23 please," (I have no idea about the currency sorry!)I handed them the money and stood off to the side as I waited for my order. I grabbed my sandwich and drink as I started walking around aimlessly trying to remember where Liam's apartment was. By the time I found it, my hamburger was gone and all that was left of my frappe was the whipped cream. I threw my trash away and walked up the stairs before knocking on Liam's door trying to put together an act to use. Sighing, I used my hood sleeves to wipe off the makeup as Liam opened the door. 

"Come on in Em," he opened the door wider, allowing me to walk in, "Nice outfit," he smirked when I noticed we had on similar clothes on. 

"Why thank you! They're one of a kind," I joked. 

"Haha, so what do you want to do today?" Liam questioned as he sat down on the couch and leaned back. 

I copied his motions before taking a deep breath, "Why is One Direction on a break from tour?" I asked. He stiffened slightly before relaxing. 

"Some of us just needed a break an wanted to go home," he lied, shrugging. 

"So One Direction didn't break up?" I asked. 

"Where'd y-you hear that?" he asked. 

"Josh." I said simply before he nodded and put his head in his hands. 

"Alright One Direction did break up, but I'm not telling you why, you'll have to ask one of the other guys because I'm wont," he stated, his mood darkening.  

"Why won't you tell me?" I asked, this was getting harder than Josh said. 

"Because it's all Niall's, an Harry's fau-" he stopped, "It's nothing I want to talk about," he muttered finally, closing his eyes. 

"I'm sorry Liam," I said softly. 

He nodded before wrapping me in a hug. I felt a tear on my shouder and I just hugged him tighter. 

"I'm getting the band back together Liam, I promise."
