Midnight memories

Diana

They were back on the bus for a couple of shows around England. They had just left Manchester.

Liam and Louis were the only ones awake. They were still buzzing from the show earlier and couldn't go to sleep yet. They were hanging out in the living room area, flipping through their phones. Liam was checking his DMs on Twitter. 
"Read this." He said and handed Louis his phone.

It was a message from a fan called Diana. She wrote about how One Direction had saved her life. It was personal and sad. Louis read it and handed Liam his phone again.
"I'm glad our music can help fans like that. That must be the most important thing we do here." Louis said.

"Yeah, let's write her a song!" Liam smiled.

"Okay, I'm game." Louis answered and got a notebook and a pen. He wrote Diana for the title before he started on the first verse.

Diana

The front pages are your pictures
They make you look so smart
How could someone not miss you at all? (Oh-ah-oh)

He handed the notebook to Liam who continued.

I never would mistreat ya
I'm not a criminal
I speak a different language but I still hear your call

Louis wrote the chorus.

Diana, let me be the one to
Light a fire inside those eyes
You've been lonely, you don't even know me
But I can feel you crying
Diana, let me be the one to
Lift your heart up and save your life
I don't think you even realize
Baby you'll be saving mine

Liam wrote the second verse before they repeated the chorus.

Diana, it's only been four months but
You've fallen down so far
How could someone mislead you at all? (Oh ah oh)

I wanna reach out for you
I wanna break these walls
I speak a different language but I still hear you call

Diana, let me be the one to
Light a fire inside those eyes
You've been lonely, you don't even know me
But I can feel you crying
Diana, let me be the one to
Lift your heart up and save your life
I don't think you even realize
Baby you'll be saving mine

Louis came up with the bridge and then they just repeated the chorus once more and they had written a song for Diana.

We all need something
This can't be over now
If I could hold ya
Swear I'd never put you down

Diana, let me be the one to
Light a fire inside those eyes
You've been lonely, you don't even know me
But I can feel you crying
Diana, let me be the one to
Lift your heart up and save your life
I don't think you even realize
Baby you'll be saving mine

Diana
(Oh ah oh oh oh oh oh oh) Diana, baby you'd be saving mine
(Oh ah oh) Diana
(Oh ah oh oh oh oh oh oh) Diana, baby you'd be saving mine

"We make a good team. Time for bed?" Liam asked.

"Yeah." Louis said and got up. He brushed his teeth and climbed into Harry's bunk bed and laid down next to his boyfriend.

Their management had come up with a new plan which meant that they couldn't sit next to each other in interviews or interact in public. It was stupid and they always had to think about what they did. It was exhausting and Louis knew how unhappy it made Harry and unfortunately, he seemed to be dealing with it by pulling away which made Louis frustrated.

The only time he got to spend quality time with his boyfriend was when he went out drinking with him. Harry even blew him off when it was the twin's birthday and his mum Jay's. Harry went to the States instead. Louis took Eleanor on a vacation trip to Oman. He stayed over Easter and Harry went home to Holmes Chapter to celebrate without him. They were drifting apart and Louis didn't know how to fix it because he wasn't sure that Harry actually wanted that.

They spent most of April touring around Britain and with that Harry went out clubbing every other night. Whenever they had a couple of days off Harry flew to L.A to party. Louis tried to give him space and didn't comment on it. The boys started to questioning it tho and Harry just told them to mind their own business.

Louis had started to hang out with Zayn. They had one common interest and that was smoking weed. Louis liked how it made him feel relaxed.

They were going to Paris the next morning to kick off their European tour. Harry was already there. He had flown directly from the States to try the party life in Paris instead.

Louis and Zayn were sitting in Zayn's living room, sharing a blunt.
"So what's going on with Harry?" Zayn asked.

"How the hell should I know?" Louis sighed and took a drag.

"He's your boyfriend." Zayn chuckled, stating the obvious.

"I'm not sure that he still wants me to be." Louis muttered.

"What? Harry loves you. Don't be silly." Zayn answered immediately and took the blunt.

"It feels like he's avoiding me. He's too busy getting drunk." Louis said.

Zayn gave him a thoughtful look.
"Have you tried to talk to him about it? I'm sure everything is okay."

"I'm trying to give him space. My efforts to discuss it always end up in fights." Louis confessed.

"I'm sorry. I'm sure it will work out." Zayn tried to comfort him.

Louis was afraid that it wouldn't. He was scared to confront Harry about it. What if Harry didn't want to be with him anymore?
