Chapter 43

                                    

                                          
Interviewer's POV:
"Hello, boys!" I say to them, as soon as the cameras are rolling. I turn to said camera and say "My name is Stella Goodsworth, and I'm here with One Direction, the biggest band on the planet! Welcome to Australia!" I finish, turning back to them.
Harry and Zayn just nod, Niall starts laughing for no reason whatsoever, and Liam and Louis respond.
"We love it here!" Liam starts.
"But it's so HOT!" Louis cuts in.
I chuckled. "It can get quite warm. So let's get into it. How many of you are single?"
Liam raises his hand, as does Niall. Harry seems to pause for a moment before raising his as well.
"So Zayn, you're dating Perrie from Little Mix, correct?"
Our live studio audience cheers.
"Yes, that's right. We've been engaged for about a year and a bit, and we're waiting til I come off tour to start planning the wedding." he responds with a small smile.
"And what about you and Eleanor, Louis?"
Harry glances away, then looks back at Louis.
"Yeah, we're, uh, not engaged, but we're certainly going strong."
"You've been going for three years, right?"
"Yes, four years this past November."
"Well, lets move down. Niall, any lucky ladies you've got your eye on?"
"Me and Melissa Whitelaw have started spending some time together, but we're not official yet."
"And how about you, Liam?"
"Me and Sophia called things off, but this time it's for real. We've been trapped in a loop, and it's about time we got out of it. She's a lovely girl, but we're not made for each other."
"Some of your fans are certainly hopeful, then, so you should be able to find yourself another lovely lady. And finally, Harry?"
Louis gives a look of daggers before remembering we're on camera. He looks down, fiddling with his thumbs as Harry starts.
"Well, I am going to reveal that I've met a guy. We're still figuring out what we are, but with the way things are travelling, I'll have a beautiful boy on my arm soon."
"That's really lovely, Harry. Love is love."
"That it is. And we need more of it in this world."
---------------------------------------
Louis' POV:
"What the fuck was that?" Zayn shouts.
"What do you mean?" Harry responds snarkily.
"One, you can't defy Simon like that, you'll get us all in trouble. Two, that was totally uncalled for!" Liam cuts in.
"Louis broke up with me, I have every right to talk about other guys! Especially when I might start seeing one!"
"It's been one. Fucking. Day. There is no way in hell you found someone that quick." Zayn argues.
"No, but I might! I will! One day, I'm going to find someone. And if Louis can't cope with that, he never should have broke up with me!"
"Both of you stop!" Niall screams. He runs over to me where I'm curled up on the floor.
"Yknow what? Fuck you. Fuck you Niall, Fuck you Zayn, Fuck you Liam. Fuck you Louis. Especially. Fuck you, Louis! I HATE YOU ALL! I FUCKING HATE YOU LOUIS!" Harry yells.
"Harry..." Liam says, soft as a whisper.
"You don't mean that." I say hoarsely.
"I do. I mean every word of it. I hate you." He returns coldly.
"But you said you love-"
"Not anymore. Not since you ended this."
He storms out of the studio, followed by Paul, who glances at me sympathetically as he leaves.
The interviewer, Stella, shoots me a pitying look.
Liam sighs, Zayn comes to sit with me and Niall. Niall pulls me close. I finally let it out, the sobs wracking my body.
"He doesn't understand. He doesn't know why you did this." Zayn says softly.
"But-"
"No buts. It's over, but it'll be okay. We'll be okay." Niall responds.
How can I be okay when the love of my life hates me?
----------------------------------------
Zayn's POV:
I'm sick of this.
I can't keep doing all this. I can't keep living this kind of life, I need to get away.
We're in the bus on our way to our performance. I really have to sing after that argument with Harry? I don't even know how we manage. 
Harry is sitting on his bunk, glaring at me, Liam, Niall and Harry in turn, Liam is on his phone. Louis is writing songs. I recognise his yellow book, it even has a cartoon sticker of him and Harry hugging. Niall is napping. I'm texting Perrie, but I shut my phone off. I carefully stand up, sitting down next to Louis. 
I read the lyrics over his shoulder, and something in them makes me feel like crying but it's filled with love, too.
And it's alright
Calling out for somebody to hold tonight
When you're lost, I'll find a way, and I'll be your light
You'll never feel like you're alone
I'll make this feel like home
"Fuck, Lou!"
"What?"
"That's amazing! Liam, come take a look at this!"
Liam stands up, walking over.
"Holy shit, Lou. This is incredible!" 
"I just wrote it." Louis responds.
"Louis! We gotta record this for the next album!" I say.
"Are you sure? I just wrote the first thing that-" 
"YES WE'RE SURE LOUIS!" Liam practically screams. "What about... hang on, gimme a sec!" 
He runs to his bunk, returning with his own notebook, pen in hand. He scribbles urgently, then shows it to us.
I was stumbling
Looking in the dark 
With an empty heart
But you say, you feel the same
Could we ever be enough? 
Baby, we could be enough
"You geniuses! Okay, you both gotta finish this song! We have to put this on the next album!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
I sit back down, still in awe of the lyrics. It was perfect, it perfectly described that feeling of love.
