Liam's P.O.V
Here he goes again, Niall. He has come to talk to me lately about his issue. The thing is, "Liam, I don't know what to do now. Harry doesn't seem to be interested in me."
"Come off it Nialler. If he didn't feel interested in you, he wouldn't even talk to you. Don't be such a sensitive person." I feel really tired of this. Niall didn't know I have feelings for him. He likes Harry, and he often comes to get my advice. At first I thought it was quite fun to help him get to his love. I like him too, so I thought it might help me get to know him better. But then, as their bromance, Narry's bromance, grows, I feel as if I was a stranger, and that feeling Niam couldn't be real scared the guts out of me. It's not like letting the fans that ship us down, it just... really hurts.
Niall and I are the closest friends in the group, besides Harry and Louis. From the beginning, I could see Niall had eyes on Harry and I know something really weird was happening, but I could never know one day Niall would come to me and ask me for help how to win Harry's heart.
"Hey Li, do you think Harry will like this shirts I'm wearing? He does like bright colour, right?" Niall suddenly asks.
I think I'll explode if Niall comes to me one to another just to ask me about Harry's favourite food, Harry's favourite colour, Harry's favourite toy, Harry's favourite drink, Harry's hobbies, Harry's regular as well as irregular habits. Therefore, I wish I could stop helping Niall. "Hey Ni, why don't you just ask him out. If I were him, I'll accept it."
"Really? You'll go out with me? I mean, he'll go out with me?" Niall widens his eyes, which makes me blush. I don't really understand why I am such a woman around Niall. But besides him, no one can make me like this. I really like this guy.
Niall's P.O.V
Liam is such a good friend. Talking to him, I feel so relieved. I figured out he has a point, I mean, if I like Harry, why wouldn't I just tell him so? Keeping everything as a secret is not good for one's health, especially these past few days when I found out I prefered looking at Harry to eating Nando's. Seriously, this has to stop.
I decided to stop by Louis and Harry's flat with the excuse of asking Louis some of the issues he might know. Louis is quite hesitant when I asked, but then he said it was ok if I came early than 12. I replied with a smile. But excuse me! I know sure enough that Harry is only home before 12. I don't know. It must be something he's been dealing with lately. And yup, I'll come after 12, which means now, because all I did ask Louis to come by is to have a chance to tell Harry my feelings for him. I don't care about me being a gay in his eyes, I care about my stomache grumping when I look at Harry instead of food. There's mostly because of food that I want to come out of the closet, not because of Liam's convincing, well it is partly.
Luckily I asked Louis for the key. Entering the house without permission is really suck, but I just want to know what Harry will be like when I show up unexpectedly.
"Creek" I open the door. Wow call me a thief! This really reminds me of 'Stand up'.
"Hello mate?" I enter Louis's bedroom as I see the door open and light is coming from it.
My jaws drop. I don't know what I see. My body feels numb, my chest is going to explode as my heart beats faster.
"Ni-Niall? I did see you there! I thought you wouldn't come. I-It's not what you think!" Louis confused.
"Sorry I come at the wrong time." Then I walk off. My ears is hard of hearing and I think I have the vision-impairment too as I almost hit my head when I walk to the door.
...
Liam's P.O.V
I wonder how Niall is doing. He told me he would confess to Harry today and I think he's pretty excited about it. I haven't heard him all day. There's possibly 3 explanations to this delay: First, Niall and Harry is at Louis's house, snogging, doing who-the-hell-know-what. (Yuck, please, it can't be happening... can it? If it is, I really don't want to ruin their moment, but my heart will seriously hurt). Second, Niall admited it and got rejected, so he must be too embarrased to phone me. (This slightly can happen, can't it?). Third, Niall had an accident (why am I even think of that? That's lame to be real... or isn't it?).
I pick up the phone. There's no point in sitting here imagining what happened. The best way to figure out what happened is to ask the third person involved.
"Hallo ma lurve!" I can easily distinguish Louis's joking voice.
"Evening mate, I'm hungry, wanna grab something to eat?" I know I would embarass Niall if I just go straight to the matter, so I'll play around a while.
"Really? Me? Eat? Ermm you must have thought I was Nialler, eh?" Louis answers just as I plan.
"Nah I haven't seen him all day. Do you happen to know where he is?" I act curiously.
"Beats me! I haven't seen him since this afternoon-" Louis suddenly stops. He must be hiding something.
"Yeah? So is Harry there?" I ask, I know what I'm demanding for.
"Yup, he's right here! Do you wanna speak to him?"
"Just asking. Nice night mate." I hung up.
Ok the first is ruled out. Niall's can't have been accepted. I sigh in relief.
"Where are you Niall?" I mostly ask myself. "Dont' play hide and seek with me!"
I was drowning in my thouught when the phone started to ring again. Could it be Niall? I pick up, as worried and hopeful as never.
No it's Zayn. I am really disappointed. why did I tell him to confess at the first place?I didn't even want them to end up together. "Hello?"
"Niall just called me. He seems to be really shocked and asked me to come there with him. I have dat-"
"I'm on my way, text me the address!" I say without reluctant. Unbelievable. Niall just chose to call Zayn instead of calling me. If Zayn weren't busy, I would never know what happen and where the hell he is. I'm getting a bit jealous over Zayn right now. It hurts me to think that even when Niall isn't with Harry, he still wants to end up with someone else but me.
Niall's POV
I'm really sad, really really sad! What I saw... it was so shocked and so heart- breaking. I don't want to mention it. I never think Harry is a gay, never think of Louis as one either. I can't believe they would be... with each other. I'm wounded so badly. I want someone to talk to. I wanted to talk to Liam... I was dialling his number when something strucked my mind. I don't want him to see me like this. I don't want my best brother think of me as a pathetic, unloved person. I am supposed to tell my brother almost everything, right? But somehow, I feel so awkward...
Zayn said he was going to be here in any minute. I didn't bring money with me, so I need him here and now to pay for all of this. I look at the table. There lied everything I had eaten, everything I could come up with, everything I thought would help my mood better. I almost had everything here.
I look at the doorway and there come someone really freak me out. He looks quite uncomfortable entering the restaurant. He's frowning as he looks around searching for me. How the hell did he know I'm here? Oh no, ZAYN! I can't believe he would do that to me, UNBELIEVABLE. That's it Zayn, it's on, you're gonna pay for this!
Liam walks over as he spotted me. He looks so damn angry at me, but after he had a peak at all the things that are lying on the table, all of my food, a rare smile replaces the frown on his face. "Seriously Niall? You ate all that?"
"Stop it. I'm torn, I can eat everything I want!" I snap.
Liam laughs, but then he faces me seriously. "So? Fail? What did he say?"
"I didn't ask him anything. I saw him with Louis..." Again Payne, do you have to bring this feeling up?
"I'm sorry." he almost mutters. That dumb, he didn't do anything wrong. "So how are you now?"
"I'm full." I fake a smile pointing at my belly. "So, why do you come here? Not Zayn?"
Liam seems to be pissed when I mention Zayn. "Can't I? Are you interested in Zayn now?"
What? Liam is being a jerk. He had never been a jerk, and why now? Is he mad at me or something? It doesn't sound like him at all.
"Fuck off! It's not funny at all Liam!" I shout. I am totally out of control.
There's a regret look on Liam's face, which somehow is rather sad. "I'm sorry Niall. It's just that... just that I'm upset that you called Zayn, not me..."
Yes I know everything happens for a reason, and Liam is mad for this reason. I can never imagine he would feel that way. I don't want him to see how hurt I am now, but I was wrong. At first I think if Zayn were here, I would lean on his shoulders and cry like a child, but then as Liam arrived, I felt so... I don't know how to describe it, it's quite a mixture between happy and worried. I was happy as I considered how he had always been there for me, and worried that he could see me crying. But then before I know it, I don't feel like crying at all. He always cheers me up, although he might not now it, and I don't know it until now.
Liam is sitting right in front of me. He is sad because of me. His words are swinging into my ears. He's sad because I called Zayn instead of him. That thought, it just sends my heart flutter.
"No Liam, it's not what you think... I was afraid you'd- you'd think that I'm pathetic." I say, biting my bottom lip.
"You're not pathetic Ni," Liam immediately says, trying to comfort me. He presses his hand against my face, which makes my heart beat even faster than usual. "You're the best person I've ever known. Harry might not love you the way you do for him, but I love you more than you could ever imagine."
I look into Liam's brown eyes with my eyes widely open. What should I say now? My heart has probably stops beating, which causes my body feeling numb. I can't think straight. It's like... a proposal. No no drop that Niall.
I hold his hand with mine. "Really? That's the sweetest thing I've ever heard." Then with a cheeky smile, I question him. "Thank you. Have you ever failed making me happy?"
"Let's see!" He pretends to think a while, then he smirks at me flirtatiously. "Nope! That's probably why we are meant for each other babe!"
I let out a loud laughter and causing everyone to look at us curiously. Phewww luckily, there aren't paps. "Save it later. Now let's pay for this first."
"Yup, I'll get the car." Liam says standing up.
"Sorry Payne, but I think you'll have to pay for this one, since I have nothing on me. I must have left it at Harry's place." I grin apologetically.
"Whataya mean ya don't bring it?" Liam's eyes widely open. Then he whispers into my ears. "Coz I didn't bring any cash either."
Oh shit! Please no! You've got to be kidding me.
I look at him pitifully. "Seriously Payne?"
"Well sorry for having worried so much that I forgot to have my wallet with me!" He sarcasts.
I pick up the phone and dial Zayn's number. I should have done this earlier. He's gonna be mad at me, at US!
I look at Liam, who is biting his lips worrily. I can't help but laugh as his goof.
"I love you Liam!" I smile.
"I love you too Niall!" He replies, still biting his lips.
