[ELIZABETH'S P.O.V]

I lay on my bunk, with the curtains drawn staring in blank space.

The sound of the R.V door, banging shut; still rung loud and clear in my head.

He hadn't said a word.

Not a single sound had escaped from his lips.

It was his eyes that did the talking.

At each sentence they would grow wider. His jaw was clenched and his forehead would twitch from time to time.

And that killed me.

Why couldn't he have at least yelled at me?!

Just one show of emotions could have given me an answer.

The silence was just pure torture.

'Liz?' asked a voice.

I looked to find Zayn peering through the curtain.

'Zayn!' I exclaimed and quickly dried my tears.

'Did he say anything?' he asked, struggling to hold on to my bunk.

'No, not a word', I frowned.

'Oh Liz- WHOA!!' he yelped and it followed with a thud.

I scrambled from my sheets and peered over to find him on the floor with a pained expression.

'Are you alright?' I asked nervously.

'Err, could we continue this conversation on solid ground?' he asked rubbing his head.

I giggled and climbed down my bunk.

We sat at the table and I started to tell him what had happened.


(AN HOUR EARLIER)

[LIAM'S P.O.V]

I was dying for the interview to get over.

Liz wanted to tell me something and I had something to tell her as well.

I wanted her to know that I loved her.

Yeah.
I was in love.

It hit me hard in the head today when I saw that jerk with her.

The thought of her belonging with some other guy just seemed to be like a nightmare.

After all this time, as I tried to get over Danielle, nothing had ever seemed so perfect till the moment I had stared into her crystal blue eyes.

I loved her.

I loved her for who she was.

'LIAM!' hissed Zayn and I snapped back to reality.

Huh?

'I asked you how you were doing with your breakup?' repeated the interviewer.

I smiled.

'I'm better', I said.

Oh I was far from better.

I felt bloody brilliant.

I rushed towards the dressing room where I found Elizabeth putting everything back.

I crept up from behind and in a flash I had her in my arms.

She squealed and smiled at me with a startled expression.

'I'm back', I whispered into her ear and I planted a kiss on her neck, allowing myself to linger there for a while more.

'Hmm, I can see that', she sighed and turned her head slightly to kiss me.
