Preference 70- The Secret He Keeps From You. (co-written)

Start from the beginning
                                    

Liam: You and Liam had been dating for three years. Things had been wonderful and had gotten ever better since your engagement. You both decided on having the wedding in the spring so it wouldn't be too hot or too cool.

You had been very busy planning every single detail of your dream wedding but your business didn't stop you from seeing the fact that Liam wasn't feeling well.

Liam called you and told you he was coming over for dinner. You began to panic as you realized you hadn't laid out anything to cook. Quickly you threw together a light pasta and picked up a cheesecake from the bakery down the road.

"Hello, my soon to be Mrs. Payne." Liam said kissing your cheek as he walked into the kitchen. You wrapped your arms around Liam's neck and smiled.

"Hello, Mr. Payne." You said giggling slightly. "I made pasta for dinner."

"Smashing. I brought you your favorite wine." You smiled as you both sat down and began to eat.

Dinner went on and soon you both became ready for dessert. You poured some wine for Liam and yourself before cutting the cheesecake. You took a bite of cheesecake and savored the delicious taste in your mouth. Soon both you and Liam had completed your dessert. Walking to the couch, hand in hand, you noticed Liam had become a little pale.
"Liam, are you alright?" You let go of Liam's hand and he fell to the floor and began seizing. You cried out and ran to get the phone, calling the ambulance. The paramedics soon arrived and gave Liam some medicine to end his seizure. You held his hand the whole way to the hospital with tears silently, running down your cheeks.

"(Y/n)? Where am I?" Liam questioned after waking up from four hours of unconsciousness.

"You're in the hospital." You said choking back tears. He reached for hands and brought them to his lips, kissing them tenderly. "Why didn't you tell me your medical issues were back? You could've died from the sugar intake. The doctor told me you'd been in for tests recently."

"I didn't want you to have to deal with it. You've been so stressed with the wedding that I didn't want to bother you with more." He said with tears forming in his eyes.

"Liam, you could never be a bother to me. We're almost married and we'll always be together no matter what. I don't want to lose you to this. You need to tell me these things." You said sitting on the side of his hospital bed.

"I will (y/n). I promise." He said taking your hands in his.

"I love you, Liam."

"I love you too, (y/n)." He said before kissing you tenderly.

Niall: You and Niall have been dating for more than four years. You've been happier than you could ever imagine. Your 5 year anniversary was coming up, but you noticed Niall was acting strange. He'd started lying to you about where he was and who he was with.

You'd asked Harry if everything was okay, but Harry refused to say anything. You were beginning to get anxious. This wasn't like Niall at all. Whenever he was home he loved to spend time with you, but recently he'd been busy and you never knew what it was. You began to get depressed and angry. What if he has found someone else? Five years is a long time. What if I'm not pretty enough? I bet she's prettier.

You began shutting Niall out and the distance was driving both of you insane. You began fighting and spending time away from each other. One night Niall went out to go "hang with the boys", but you knew that the boys would be at tux fittings for Jay's wedding. Angry, you followed him to a botanical garden. As you walked down the path, and looked around the corner you saw Niall laughing with a gorgeous girl. Angrily you turned around, knocking over a flower stand.

"(Y/n)! Wait! Princess! This isn't what it looks like! I swear!" You heard Niall call after you. Niall grabbed your waist and spun you around to face him. The tears began falling from your face as he cupped your cheeks.

"You don't have to explain anything. I understand completely. She's prettier than me, and you're bored." Niall wiped the tears from cheeks and shook his had, sadly.

"No, princess. I love you more than anything. She was just helping me set up the venue." You turned your face away.

"The venue for what?" You said sniffling. Niall smiled and turned your face back to him.

"Our anniversary, princess. I was saving this for later, but I can't wait anymore." Before you could react Niall got down on one knee and pulled a ring box out of his pocket.

"(Y/n), I got this for you today. I want to show you how much I love you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. (Your full name), will you marry me?" He smiled up at you. Your mouth fell open as you began crying, and ran into his arms.

"Yes, Niall! Yes!" You said kissing him repeatedly.

"I love you, my princess."

"I love you, too."

Harry: You and Harry had been dating a little over 6 months. Everything had been going great and you loved every second you spent together. One thing that always confused you was that Harry always had plans on Fridays and Saturdays. One Friday you laid in bed contemplating what he could be doing. What could be more important than you? What if you were a side chick? What if he didn't really care about you? Every question made you more and more upset. Your mind was made up. Tomorrow night you were going to follow Harry and see what he was up.

The next morning you woke up to your doorbell ringing. Quickly you through on some clothes and ran to open it. Swinging the door open you were met with a pair of piercing green eyes.

"Morning, love." Harry said sweetly, before planting a soft kiss on your lips. You smiled and leaned into his arms, trying to push down the guilt you were feeling about your plan to follow him.

"Good morning, Harry. Do you have any plans tonight?" You asked, praying he would be free for once. Harry's face scrunched up a bit.

"I do, love. But tomorrow we can spend the whole day together." He said trying to make up for it. You nodded quietly.

"Do you want to come in?" Harry ran his fingers through his curls making you get butterflies in your stomach. Every time you see him is still like the first time.

"I can't. I just wanted to drop by before I went to the studio." He kissed you once more before getting into his Rove Ranger and driving away.

Later that night you parked your car outside of Harry's house and waited for him to leave. You followed Harry down the highway and to an abandoned factory close to the city. You saw all the lights, cars, music and women. Your stomach churned as you looked around for Harry. As you got out of your car, you saw him stepping into a much nicer and faster car. Your breath hitched when you realized he was illegally street racing.

The tears poured down your face as you watched him speed off with a group of cars. Sitting down in a more deserted area, you put your head in your hands and cried. When the racers got back you noticed Harry was being congratulated and praised. You slowly stood up, your eyes locking with his. Harry's eyes went wide as he saw you begin to leave.

"(Y/n)! (Y/n!) Wait!" Harry chased after you and caught your wrist.

"I don't understand. Why are you doing this?" You cried. "You could lose your career! Or get arrested!"

"You don't understand! I love the thrill. I'm tired of being safe and being boring!" Harry screamed at you.

"Well maybe you need to get rid of your safe and boring girlfriend!" You retorted, hotly. Opening your car door, you slid inside angrily. Harry slammed your door shut and stormed off to his car while the tears began to stream down his cheeks.

** thank you so much to Rnicole1998 for writing this, it's so good! she also left this little note as well, just about Zayn's part :) -Side Note: I don't have any issue with people smoking. I personally think it's bad for you, but don't have an issue with people who choose to do it. So just to be clear I'm not hating on anyone who smokes, I just needed a secret for Zayn to keep. :) -
