"Just Let Me"〔One Direction〕x 〔M!Reader〕

『16』Periwinkle Blue Eyes

Immediately feeling alarmed, you look at Louis straight in the eyes, hoping to get his attention. You don't want to experience another fight Louis has to go through. Usually Louis would start an arguement with a staff member privately. But never publicly or in front of you and the other boys at least, but you and the four others already knew for awhile how Louis likes to pick fights, even though those fights were private, they could still faintly hear yells echoing down the hallway.

"Jesus, here we go again" Liam mutters to himself, but unfortunately Louis could just catch it right from the tip of his hearing.

"No no Payno, why are you all just sitting there silently on the couch? We're not silly teenagers anymore alright? We're not sixteen or seventeen or eighteen, half of us are already twenty. We aren't kids that don't know half of what the fuck is going on" Louis turns his head back at his bandmates that were sitting quietly behind him, shifting their legs while anxiety took them over, not knowing whether or not they should finally stand up for themselves or if they should keep their lips sealed. Louis then remembers about (Y/N), he then turns his head towards (Y/N)'s direction hoping he'd agree but only to see the lad looking back at Louis's baby blue orbs with plea.

(Y/N) shakes his head gently, the only focus Louis would ever want was to (Y/N) cause everytime he would stare at him, he feels like he's at home. You always had a figure of someone so open armed and it feels like anyone, any stranger, could hug you at random times and you wouldn't hesitate to hug them back. But seeing (Y/N)'s pleading eyes felt so painful it was like a bursts of thousands of little pieces of glass shards, that all jabbed Louis in his chest. He didn't want to make him worry again, Louis didn't want to disappoint him again, Louis felt like he's done enough things that have troubled you. So Louis can only close his slight gaping mouth, and shyly slipped back  on the couch between Harry and Niall and sat quietly.

"You really think you did something, did you? You were so bold on being the little black sheep of the group. I'm sure your friends will pity you one day" The staff scoffed, the same one that Louis had a feud with. He left shortly after followed by the other employees in the room, everyone was in a mist of silence and at lost for words, they were mostly confused on what had happened.

Meanwhile, you on the other spot of the room, just sighed in relief while closing your tired eyes. That heavy feeling in your chest finally drifted away, hopefully the heavy tension in the room follows soon too. You really craved your bed at the moment, you wanted to be back home and sleep, you were just so tired. The recording crew now are finishing up all of their things and packed up, leaving the rest of the work to continue on another day. You got up and walked over to the other boys who were just leaving the recording room, Liam fell behind to wait for you by the door frame.

"What happened? I didn't listen" You murmured, turning your head towards Liam who didn't return the look, he just stares at the floor as he walks beside you, seeming like he was pretty downhearted.

"Our company told the whole world we were going to do a concert tomorrow without us knowing, unbelievable right?" As soon as those words left Liam's mouth, your face drops into an expression of horror, mouth slightly agape. Sure you knew that later on you'll be doing a concert but why so soon? You boys had just came home from tour the other night and now there you will be performing a concert tomorrow? None of you are fully prepared for it, and the Management are out of their minds for thinking that practicing for one night would be enough. You curse under your breath quietly, thinking that your five bandmates wouldn't hear but that was nearly impossible due to the oddly quiet walk down the hall, Zayn who was walking in front of you looked behind himself to make sure you were okay. He extended his arm out to caress your upper arm.

The boys then said their goodbyes to the people in the studio with their droopy eyelids, waving at everyone as they made their way into the exit like they think they were some silly royalties. The six boys had to jump in seperate cars again so that they wouldn't be seen all six together, if they were then the fans nearby them would most likely make an absolute huge ambush around the town and cause a concert right then and there. You look out onto the sky and it was aleady pretty dark, the only few lights shining the world you see are the ones from windows of the buildings beside you and the car lights, you remembered to duck your head just so you won't draw attention as you and your bandmates carefully walk on the sidewalk, trying to avoid any human interaction afraid it'll soon turn to a screaming crowd.
