Liam’s POV
It had been a week. A week since I last saw Jillian. I was going completely insane. Both Harry and Louis had gone from wanting Jillian gone to wanting her back. It’s mostly because I won’t shut my mouth about her. Niall and Zayn on the other hand haven’t spoken a word to me. Niall wasn’t sad, which truly surprised me. Last time Jillian was taken away from him he never smiled. I’ve noticed a lot of things different with Niall these past seven days. How he started to bail on all of us to go home and be stuck at home all day. Zayn had gotten an awful amount of tattoos and he’d become more dependent on the cigarettes. He and Perrie haven’t been on the right road; although I and he weren’t talking it was obvious what was going on with him. I had called Jillian’s cell multiple times but I’d always get her voicemail. I couldn’t find her; no matter how hard I tried she was nowhere to be found. “Liam!” Louis yelled.

“What?” I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at him.

“I asked you if you wanted to come to the tattoo parlor.” I sighed and nodded. I’ve been thinking about getting a new tattoo, it’s been in my mind for quite a while now.

“I’ve wanted a tattoo for a while anyways.” I smiled. I stood up and walked over to the black truck that was driving us there. I looked down at my phone which had Jillian’s picture as its lock screen and smiled. I didn’t know why I lied to Jillian about meeting up with Danielle. I knew how insecure she made her but that’s not why I did it, Jillian would have been completely okay with it. I felt a small nudge on my shoulder and I looked up.

“We’re here.” I nodded as I stepped out of the truck. I walked over to the door before it swung open and revealed Niall with a blonde girl.

“Niall?” The girl froze and hid her face in Niall’s arm.

“Uh, what are you doing here Liam?” I crossed my arms and looked at him.

“I could ask you the same question.” I cocked my head to the blonde. “Who’s your friend?” I gave him a grin.

“Wouldn’t you like to know?” He huffed and shoved past me holding onto the girl. I watched as the girl sneaked a peek back at me. Her eye as blue as Niall’s. It looked familiar so I walked towards them. I saw her turn around quickly and whisper something to Niall who later turned around to look at me. He paused his steps and walked towards me leaving the girl alone, back towards me. “Stop following us, you’re creeping her out.” He turned around and started to walk off. I grabbed his forearm and turned him around.

“Who is she?” I asked in a slight whisper.

“No one you should worry about Liam.” He yanked his arm away and walked over the girl. I knew who this girl was; I just couldn’t get my mind around it.

“Liam are you coming?” I had forgotten Louis had come as well.

“Yeah.” I walked over to the door and entered.

“Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson. Wow I didn’t expect to be tattooing the whole band plus their girlfriends.” The man chuckled. I squinted my eyes.

“Girlfriends?” He nodded.

“The younger one, Niall?” He asked not to sure. “He came by with Miss Summers, you’re girlfriend. Don’t ask me how I know, I just watch a lot of TMZ on my days off.” He chuckled. My eyes widened as he spoke.

“M-My girlfriend was with him?” I stuttered and he nodded slowly.

“I thought you knew?” I cleared my throat and nodded.

“Yeah, yeah. I just, uh, I forgot.” I gave him a weak smile. I saw Louis chuckling at the corner of my eye. “I’ll just come back another day. I just remembered I had something to do.” I lied running out of the parlor. I ran my way to Niall’s flat knowing exactly where Jillian was now. I stopped at his door and panted from all the running. Once I had my breathe on track I knocked my knuckles hard on the wooden door. I heard the faint giggles stop. Niall’s soft footsteps came closer to the door. I heard the door click and Niall’s smile faded as he saw me.

“You know?” I nodded and pushed the door out of the way as hard as I could making both Niall and Jillian finch. She stood there not saying a word just looking at me frightly. Her blond hair covering her normal hair, brunette.

“You knew where she was this whole time, you knew how much of a mess I’ve been and you still kept it a secret?” I yelled at Niall. “You out of all people Niall.” I shook my head and walked over to him. He gulped and took small steps back. “I was the one who got you to be by her side when you weren’t allowed to.” I pushed him to the wall. “I was the one who was always there for you. How dare you lie to me?” I pinned him to the wall with one of my forearms to his neck and smashed my fist on the wall next to his face.

“Leave him alone Liam.” Jillian’s soft voice spoke. “Please, just leave him alone.” She put her hand on my shoulder and I released Niall making him chock out for air. “You need to leave, and never come back.” She opened the door.

“Why?” I asked my eyes now sad.

“Because you’ve caused to much problems already Liam.” She spoke not about leaving the flat but about hiding. “I gave you everything! I told you everything! I trusted you and you go out and lie to me straight to my face to hang out with your ‘best friend’ Danielle.” She shook her head. “It’s obvious you two have feelings for each other and I’m glad Liam, congratulations on having a gorgeous girl replace an ordinary girl like me.” I shook my head and opened my mouth to speak. “Save it Liam, its over.” She walked over to Niall and intertwined her hand into his. “I’m with Niall now, and you’re with Danielle. Let’s just stay out of each other’s way alright?” I looked at her and Niall as tears started to build up. “Don’t.” She closed her eyes. “Don’t make this difficult, just leave.” She whispered.

“How could you?” I looked over to Niall. “I did everything for you! I gave up so much for you!” I walked over to him and Jillian stepped in front of him.
“You hurt me before you hurt him.” She said. “Unlike you, Niall doesn’t lie to me, he doesn’t go out and lies to me about going to a meeting when in reality he’s just catching up with the love of his life.” She spat out. “I suggest you leave and never come around here again.” She growled. “And If I ever find out you’ve hurt Niall I will personally hunt you down and kick your ass.” The fire in her eyes burned through mine. I’d never seen anyone like this, so controlling, so protective.

Jillian’s POV

“Thank you.” Niall spoke softly. I smiled and shoved my head into his chest.

“I won’t let anyone touch my little Nialler.” He chuckled and shoved me. “When do you plan on telling the lads?” I looked down.

“I don’t know Jillian.” He looked down to his feet. “How am I supposed to say it? How am I supposed to let them accept me?” he whimpered and I brought him into a hug.

“Hey now, I did.” I kissed his cheek. “They will too.” He nodded.

“I guess they have a right to know, I can’t just keep hiding behind you this whole time.” I nodded.

“As much fun as pretending to be your girlfriend for a couple of seconds, I like being your best friend more.” He laughed.

“I know that was hard for you.” I nodded looking down. “But don’t worry; tomorrow I’m going to have a talk with them. Tomorrow I’m going to let them know I’m gay.” Niall sighed out.
