Always the Bestfriend

Something Else

“That’s an A, mate.” Niall says

“I think I’m finally getting the hang of this.”

“Sure bud. That A makes two chords you know how to play on the guitar, proud o’ ya” Niall teases.

“Ha ha. I’ve only been at this for days, gimme a break” Harry quips at his bandmate with a laugh.

“Fo’ sure mate, I bet there’s loads of songs with only two chords.”

“That’s it.” Harry says as he puts Niall into a playful headlock and they continue their friendly banter.

“Whoa, hey, violence is not the answer boys.” you say jokingly as you enter the boys’ dressing room and see your two best friends continue to engage in their rough play. “What? Did Niall comment on your greasy hair, Haz?”

“Heyyy!” Harry protests while Niall laughs and taunts Harry even more by pretending to toss his hair over his shoulders.

“Nah, Y/N. I reckon the fight’s over you.” you hear Liam and you roll your eyes at him but feel the blood rush to your cheeks.

You look over at Harry and Niall and see that all playful banter has finally come to a stop and both of them were sporting sheepish smiles and flushed cheeks.

Louis and Liam bursts with laughter.

—————

Ever since Zayn left the band Harry, Niall, Liam and Louis have been closer than ever. With one of their band mates leaving, the boys seemed to have been reminded of the thing that has kept their band together for so long - their friendship.

The boys always made it a point to make time for each other whether they were in work or not. To the rest of the world, Zayn leaving One Direction was a catastrophe, and somehow the media portrayed the boys as sad, wounded puppies lost without 1/5 of the band.

To an extent you saw how heartbreaking it was for everyone to see Zayn leave.

You remember how difficult it was to see Louis obviously conflicted about the fact that his partner in crime chose to leave. He didn’t know whether he was sad, angry or maybe both? Niall with red rimmed eyes trying to rub his tears away and like always trying to make sense of what was happening and telling Zayn that he understood all the while his voice was breaking. Liam seemed to be taking the news best out of all the boys and had his arm around Zayn trying to comfort his friend but you knew his blank stare meant otherwise. And of course Harry, who was sitting beside you on their dressing room couch then, with his head in his hands, tears falling uncontrollably, staining his dark ripped jeans and his shoulders quivering slightly along with his silent sniffles.

Your heart broke at the sight before you.

It was such a contrast from 5 years ago, all six of you giddy with excitement for what was to come for your careers not knowing that in just a few short years what was once just “can you imagine if-s..” and “what would happen when-s..” would be turned to “remember when-s..” and “i loved that time when-s..”. You were all so young.

“I’m so sorry.” you remember Zayn saying.

You didn’t say anything back then, what with all the shock and hurt coursing through your body. But now you wish you did.

“Me too, Z.”

Slowly but surely however, you saw the rest of the boys build a stronger friendship upon their loss. And you made sure to be with them every step of the way. The media created a spectacle of Zayn leaving, and you being noticeably with the boys more often than before. It sparked rumors of whether there was feud going on with Zayn, and pretty soon dating rumors of you, Niall and Harry resurfaced. But you and the boys didn’t care for any of it, you were spending some of the best years of your lives with each other. Your best friends.

“Alright, come off it Payno. I think we’ve tortured these three enough.” Louis jokes

“Last show of the tour boys! We ready?” Niall says excitedly

“Pumped!” Liam exclaims.

“Alright, huddle up.” Harry says.

“Y/N, get in here.” Louis says as he puts his arm around your shoulder and pulls you closer to him.

You’re flattered at the gesture but say, “I don’t know boys, this is your last tour huddle for a while. I think maybe it should just be you four.”

“Oh stop right there. You know you’re part of this band as much as all of us.” Harry says beaming.

You look at all four of the boys and see all of them flashing encouraging smiles at you, and you thought your heart could burst. There was so much love and genuine friendship between all of you.

You put your hand on top of the pile of hands in you and the boys’ little huddle.

“1! 2! 3! We push!”

—————

“Before we end the show, if you could all help me welcome one of our best friends - Y/N!!” you hear Liam call out on stage.

Your heart starts pumping, you make your way out to the boys and look at the sea of directioners some with their witty signs others holding their phones with their flashlights on. The place was absolutely roaring. You could hear them shouting your name, and you’re grateful.

“Big fan!!” Harry says slyly as you get closer to the boys at the end of the stage and pulls you into a side hug. You didn’t know it’d be possible but the arena gets even louder.

You smile up at Harry and playfully punch his arm.

“Ouch! It hurts!”

“Always the dramatic one, Haz.”

“How are you all doing tonight? Enjoying the show?” you say to the crowd.

“YESSS!!”

“Me too. Always fun at one direction show, huh?”

“YESSS!!”

“Came out here tonight because earlier this year, when the boys told me about the hiatus all of the wonderful memories from the past 5 years came rushing to me…”

You turn and exchange smiles with the boys.

“…so i did the only thing i knew how to do, i sat down and wrote a song for these amazing boys right here.”

The crowd roars with excitement.

“If you know the song, would you help me sing it?”

“YESS!!”

You start singing the song you wrote for the boys with the crowd singing along. All throughout the number you and boys had your arms around each others shoulderd and waists, and when you looked up at them all of them had glassy eyes. Especially Harry who had his tight grip around your waist.

“I had the time of my life with you.” with that you ended your song, the arena cheered and you realized you and the boys were now tears.

Liam hugs you tightly and lift you off your feet and you two spin around together.

“That was beautiful, love.” Louis says as soon as liam puts you down and gives you a hug of his own.

Harry pulls you into a tight embrace, “Thank you, angel. I loved it.” he then sneaks a quick kiss on your cheeks but you’re sure the crowd didn’t miss a thing and you blush. Your heart picking up the familiar pace, and you try to fight it off to save face in front of thousands of fans. You and Harry break the hug and you head over to Niall.

He wraps his arms around you, and whispers “Remember when i said i wanted you to be happy?” You’re caught off guard but you nod against his shoulders.

“I meant it. Go be with him.”

You look up Niall and see him smiling down at you.

“You’re something else, Horan.” you smile and bury your head in his chest.
He kisses your forehead, and the rest of the boys join you in a tight huddle laughing and hugging each other and taking it all in - the best time of your lives indeed.

I'm not sure if this is over. But I just wanted to let you know I am dead. Thank you.
I hurt so bad hurting Niall, never imagined I could feel like that. It was very well written, a few minor tense changes, POV pronoun mistakes , but an all around great read. Very moving. And with the Y/N concept, I hate myself for hurting Niall. Love the work. Not sure if it is going to be updated but id go for more! Niall and Y/N was just soooo great. Keep up the good work.
