RECAP
"Did you pick a movie?" I asked before slipping into bed next to him. I looked at the screen and I could feel the smile on my face perk up.
Tangled.
"Niall, I love you," I fluffed my pillow and scooted closer to Niall, still smiling.
"Well it's your favorite movie so how could I not," he laughed at how excited I was and moved closer to me.
"You can't lie, this movie is really is amazing," I grabbed the remote and pressed play, letting this piece of perfection begin.
"Whatever makes you happy, makes me happy," Niall swung his arm around my shoulder and pulled me into his chest. I made myself comfortable, swinging my arm around his stomach and resting my head on his stomach.
As Eugene and his pals ran from the castle with the crown in their hands, Niall spoke up, "And I can't lie, this movie isn't all that bad."
As the movie showed the three guys running through the forest, I couldn't help but let a sly grin form on my face.
Moments like these make me forget about all the bad things that keep occurring in life.

Molly's POV
"The plane is ready," Paul popped his head around the corner, making all six of our heads snap up. We all nodded and stood up, groaning due to the uncomfortable airport chairs, and gathered our suitcases.
"I can't believe these are the last shows of the North American leg of the tour," Zayn spoke up as he slouched, looking a bit depressed.
"I know, mate," Harry clapped his back a few times before walking ahead, leading us to the private plane.
"It's not like it's gonna be your last show in the United States," I attempted to cheer things up as I smiled brightly, but was shut down with a few shrugs of their shoulders.
"But that's gonna be in a year or two," Zayn fired back, frowning. At that, I stopped talking because it seemed like everyone was being bombarded with negative thoughts. "Sorry, Molly, I just loved being in America. I didn't mean to come out as rude."
Once we reached the end of the hallway, Paul held the glass door open for us. Niall wrapped his arm around my shoulders as we walked the short distance to the running plane. I looked up at him and smiled, bumping our hips together to get his attention.
As his attention was brought to me, he raised in eyebrow in curiosity.
"Please tell me you're not depressed, too," I whispered so the only people who could hear was the two of us.
"Not nearly depressed, just a bit sad and shocked is all," He twisted his mouth to one side and nodded. "This tour has just been absolutely amazing, ya know? I don't want it to end."
"But, Ni, you still have a month left of the tour after these shows. You didn't forget about Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, now did ya?" Niall cracked a smile and bowed his head.
"You know exactly how to make me feel better, Molz," he squeezed my shoulder and dragged me closer to him. "Thank you."
"Hey, don't get all mushy on me now," I joked as I picked up my suitcase. Before I could start walking up the stairs, Niall took the suitcase from me, leaving me empty handed. He smirked as he nodded for me to keep walking which made me roll my eyes, but obey his orders.
The plane was cold, as usual, but no one complained due to the temperature outside being extremely hot. I looked back and watched Niall haul both of our suitcases in an overhead before turning back and nodding for me to take the window seat.
I took my my phone out of my pocket before sitting down, buckling myself up and tightening it.
"It's only an hour flight," Niall informed me before buckling his own seatbelt. "And then we're in L.A. for five days, but four of them being concert days."
"It's always been my dream to go to L.A.," I confessed, smiling to myself because in just an hour that dream will accomplished.
"I know, when you made your list of things to accomplish before you die in Ms. Havisham's class, going to L.A. was second."
I couldn't help but laugh, "And meeting the Jonas Brothers was number one. How'd you even remember that?"
Niall bit his lip before meeting my eyes, "I remember more than you can imagine before One Direction took over my life." A flash of emotion flicked in his eyes before leaving and making him turn away.
"You're not the only one, Ni. The past was all I thought about when you were away," I watched as Niall bowed his head and shook it. "It haunted me and as much as I tried to forget everything, I just couldn't."
"You'll never know how sorry I am, Molz. I-" I cut him off as I interlocked our fingers together.
"I don't regret anything though. Everything happens for a reason, and if you never tried out for X Factor, we wouldn't be in this position right now. I wouldn't be only an hour away from scratching one of my life goals off my list."
Niall face split into a grin before squeezing my hand a little, "I'm pretty sure number one won't ever come true because they split up a few months ago."
I felt the grin on my face slip into a frown as I punched his shoulder lightly, "Way to ruin the mood, Horan."
"I'm just saying!" Niall burst out laughing as I looked out the window, seeing nothing but clouds. I shook my head and kept my head turned away to hide the growing smile on my face,
Like he thought I didn't know they split.
Now what kind of fan would I be if I didn't know they went their separate ways.
My heart's anthem will always be Year 3000.
I bit my lip as I squeezed Niall's hand once more because I couldn't be more content in life than I am now.

"Los Angeles!" Harry yelled as soon as he stepped out of the plane. He raised his hands, embracing the moment, before running down the stairs. Paul grabbed him before he could run off any further as the rest of us exited the plane,
"Oh my God," I whispered to myself as the blazing sun started to form a line of sweat on my forehead. "It's actually happening."
"L.A. is absolutely stunning, right?" I looked to my left to see Liam. "And we haven't even left the airport yet."
I laughed and started walking with him, "It's always been a dream of mine to even step a foot into the city."
"L.A.? Out of everywhere in the world, you chose L.A.?" Liam raised an eyebrow at me as I nodded.
"How could I not choose L.A.? It's the city where dreams come true, the City of Angels. My mom would always tell me stories about her adventures in Los Angeles. She met my dad here."
"Well I'm sure your experiences will be even more exciting," Liam rubbed my back as we stepped inside the airport where you could hear deafening screams. Liam smiled at me before shrugging his shoulders, "Now, it's show time!"
And with that, he jogged ahead and around the corner where the screams only grew louder.
I twiddled my thumbs together nervously, still not used to the spotlight, and took a deep breath. As I rounded the corner, I felt someone jog up beside me and throw an arm around my shoulder.
"You didn't think I was gonna let you do this alone, now did you?" Niall's breath ghosted over my ear as he squeezed my shoulder.
"I thought you ran ahead to meet the fans already!" I looked up at him, confused.
"Actually the opposite," Niall revealed before looking up and dragging me over to a group of fans. They all greeted Niall first, some crying for some odd reason, before turning to me.
"You're Molly, right?" I nodded and smiled. "You're absolutely gorgeous, I'm so jealous!"
I felt Niall's gaze on me as my face got started to turn red as the girl's words.
"She is, isn't she?" Niall spoke up and smiled.
I ignored his words and smiled at the young girl, "That's really sweet of you, thank you! Same for you, sweetheart."
She blushed and hugged me before Niall announced we has to go or the boys were going to leave without us.
"She was so nice," I gushed to Niall once we got into the black SUV.
"Who was nice?" Harry asked, giving me a questioning look.
I was about to answer before Niall spoke up, "A fan told Molly how beautiful she was."
"Well, she wasn't lieing," Louis shrugged and nodded. "The fans almost never treat the girls associated with the band nicely so this is kind of nice to hear!"
"Louis," Liam groaned in a disapproving tone. "Some of the fans are nice and respect the people close to us, but not everyone is as heartless as some of the other fans."
"They're pretty heartless to El," Louis spoke up, eyebrows furrowed together. "Can't be seen with her without a load of bullshit rumors being created. You know how it is with Danielle!"
"Louis," Liam warned, but Louis didn't stop.
"She gets criticized for everything she does! If she misses a move in a dance, there's rumors saying it's because the two of you are fighting! It's bullshit!"
"Louis!" Liam yelled, startling everyone. Liam's face was red, which was unusual because he was the one who could always hold his temper the best.
"Li-"
"I think it's the right time to finally tell you guys that Danielle and I have split ways. We've agreed to stay friends, but we both think it's time to see different people."
There was a moment of silence as Liam's face changed back to normal before Zayn clapped him on the back.
"Sorry it didn't work out, mate," Zayn comforted him, making Liam nod his head slowly.
The car came to a stop in front of a luxury hotel, but no one made a move to get out.
"Li, I'm sorry, I didn't know," Louis frowned and rested a hand on his knee.
"It's my fault, I should've told you guys sooner," Li nodded and sighed before getting up. "I'm fine, I really am. I just feel guilty is all," and with that, Liam opened the car door and got out. Everyone followed him without a word and grabbed their suitcases.
"I got it," Niall rested a hand on my back.
"Thanks, Ni," I whispered, but stayed behind to wait for him.
Once he had both of the suitcases in his hand, I shut the trunk and walked inside. Everyone was spread out around the lounge, Liam by a window, Zayn in a corner, and Louis at the bar.
"Wanna take a seat over there?" Niall pointed to a corner where a leather coach was located. I nodded and grabbed my suitcase before he could, and followed him.
As I was walking behind Niall, I felt a tug on my elbow which made me stop in my tracks and turn around.
To my surprise, it was my father.

You all hate me. You hate me so much and I completely understand. I had no right to deprive you from a new chapter of Game On, Horan and it was rude of me to do so. I understand if you've given up on me because I thought I gave up on this book.
But I haven't.
This is not my best work, but I tried. I really did.
I was going through my messages and everyone is asking me when the new chapter of the book would be or asking me why I gave up on such a special book. I'm sorry. I logged out 6 months ago and it breaks my heart to read the messages everyone sent to me that I never got to reply to.
Please forgive me.
I will work on the next chapter right now and try to give it my all.
Thank you for sticking with me, I'll try to not let you down.
On a positive note, I got OTRA floor seats and I'M BEYOND EXCITED. Are any of you guys going?
As usual, if you have an suggestions for the rest of the book, leave your comments below!
