《One Thing - A Liam Payne Fan Fiction》Chapter 4

Danielle's POV

I could sense something different about Liam that morning,he didn't kiss me as passionately as he usually would,and he actually cared about being punctual. Oh well,maybe he had something on his mind. Dating a mega superstar like him wasn't easy but I was already used to it. All the screaming fans and girls throwing themselves at him was hard,but I trusted Liam.He wasn't the type to cheat and I wasn't the jealous type either,so we were a perfect match.

"Yo Dani,didn't you go out with Liam last night? Heard it was a sick party!"

I read the text slowly while I sipped my hot coffee,it was from my friend, Maggie.

''Naah,it was the boys night out! Besides, I was busy,glad he had fun though.'' I replied then put down my phone on the counter as I flipped through the channels on telly. The phone vibrated again.

Check this out! The pics look crazy ! That club seems to be the hottest joint in London at the moment! See you at rehearsals. Xx.

I clicked on the link and checked out the pictures one by one,smiling as I saw how much fun Liam and his mates were having. The next picture I clicked on was a bit disturbing though.It was Liam and he looked as if he was whispering in the ear of a girl,but this wasn't just any girl,she was stunning.I promised myself that I wasn't the jealous type but anger overcame me and I smacked the phone down on the counter. Staring into space,I convinced myself that I had nothing to worry about,Liam was always around supermodels anyway,but I'm still his girlfriend,and I have been for two years. I put down my cup and walked back into the room.

I was disoriented.

Angie's POV.

The whole day I had been thinking of Liam.I wondered if I'd ever get to see him again. It had been the climax of all those years I spent being a directioner.Zara had spent most of the day texting Andy.Those two had really hit it off.They really were like two peas in a pod.

I had stayed at home watching tv and being awfully lazy till I logged on my twitter two days later and saw that I had several new followers, one of them being Andy and a couple of the people I had been with at Funky Buddha that night. I changed my profile photo on Facebook to one I had taken with Liam at the party. I got 150 likes in about 5 minutes

OMG IS THAT LIAM PAYNE? DAMN GIRL YOU MADE IT!

that's so awesome Ang,where was this?

Both of you just look amazing. Thumbs up!

You got cosy with Liam of 1D? OMGGG inbox now!!

ONE DIRECTION!!!

You look gorgeous damnit!,he looks yummy too!xx '

I giggled reading through the comments that were being posted about the photo. It was a pretty good photo of me and him,I wasn't planning on changing that profile picture for a while.Looking at my friend requests I saw new requests from all the people I had met at Funky Buddha including the owner and the managers.I accepted them immediately,ignoring the rest.

DANIELLE'S POV

Liam's birthday was coming up and I had no idea what to do for him. I needed help so I took my phone out and dialed the number

''Hey Andy! Wasup! I need you to help me with something,its top secret though.Can we meet up today?''.

.''Hahah okay Danielle,what time?'' he answered with his normal easy going voice

''How about 3? Starbucks?'' I replied.

''Okay cool,see you there Dan!''

I put down the phone and then felt a bit relieved,knowing I was getting help from Liam's bestfriend.

Now nothing could go wrong.

LIAM'S POV

The past couple of days had been a bit awkward,I couldn't concentrate during our studio sessions. All I could think about was Angela. I needed to find her,but what was up with that? I loved Danielle,why was I letting just another pretty girl flood my thoughts like this? But I was excited about one thing, my 19th birthday was coming up and I couldn't wait.

''Hey dude,whats up? You've been really quiet of late. Is it that time of the month again?'' Zayn joked,nudging me gently.

''Maybe its girlfriend issues,''Harry added with a sheepish smile.

''Me and Danielle are fine,it's our 2nd year anniversary!''I blurted and then suddenly everyone went quiet until Niall shouted.

''Hey Liam,come check this out! The Guardian has some new scoop on you! Haha these guys never fail to amuse!'' His Irish accent cut through the air. I rushed to where he had sat using his laptop.

LIAM PAYNE'S NEW MYSTERY GIRL!

The heading was already disconcerting.

I read on.

''One Direction band member seen getting cosy with a gorgeous female at a new London club during his friends' party. Could this stunning girl just be his friend? Apparently he spent half the night chatting with her in the lounge but doesn't he already have a girlfriend? Danielle Peazer? The beautiful dancer whom he met at the X factor 2 years ago. We all have many questions but the main one has to be,''Who is this gorgeous girl?'' Check out the pics from the party below.

There under the article were pictures of me and Angela,talking during the party. There was one of me holding her hand and yet another of me whispering in her ear.The only thing I could say at that time was ''I'm so screwed''

ANGIE'S POV.

Zara busted the door open without even a good morning and I woke up with a blow.

''Ang! Have you seen this week's Heat?'' She enquired.I rubbed my eyes and then saw her walk into my room holding a magazine.

''Since when do you read Heat? Thought you hated tab-''

''Angie,have you seen it?'' She cut me off.

"No,why?'' I murmured.

''LOOK! ANG! YOUR IN THE FREAKING MAGAZINE! YOU AND LIAM! Is there something you forgot to tell me?'' She bursted, nudging me playfully.

I sat up on my bed immediately, grabbed the magazine from Zara's hand and flipped through the pages. There they were,pictures of me and Liam,at the club that night. The pictures weren't really the problem for me,the comments made were the issue. My eyes expanded with awe as I read the article.

''Beautiful girl seen out in the club with One Direction's Liam Payne.Who is she to him? Liam already has a girlfriend,Danielle Peazer,but from the looks of these pictures,they were getting pretty cosy in a new London Club.

Could this be Liam Payne's mistress?''

The first thing that went through my mind was WTF.Then I decided to stay indoors until the hype about me being his mistress faded, but I had forgotten, One Direction had one of the biggest fan bases in the world and that would surely take some time since Liam was extremely famous.

''Aaaargh I'm so stupid,how could I forget that the tabloids would obviously turn everything around? '' I said,with a pitiful tone. But to some extent I knew this would happen.

I went to twitter later that day to find 'Liam's Mistress' trending. I clicked on the trend and I was surprised to see the tweets that were being posted by all the other directioners.

''I wish I was #LiamsMistress''

''RT if you wish you were #LiamsMistress ''

''She is sooo much prettier than Danielle! Big ups Liam! @Real_Liam_Payne ''

''Is she a model or something?''

''Finally,someone giving @daniellepeazer a run for her money!You go girl!''

''I'm so jealous of her right now,she got to hold his hand''

''First,Danielle,then sexy mystery chick,cmon Liam,NOTICE ME!!!''

I was flabbergasted by the comments but I was flattered aswell.I knew I was pretty but from all the tweets everyone was convinced I was a model.That was sweet.But I didn't like being called a 'mistress' it sounded so negative,besides,I had only been with Liam for a night. I was slightly frightened by the publicity but gladly they didn't know my name.

DANIELLE'S POV

What the hell was going on? I was trying to be the best girlfriend in the world to Liam and yet he had a mistress? No,I had to confirm this. I had to confront Liam about it. I had trusted him all along and I knew there was no truth to what those cheap tabloids were writing.

''So whats this about?'' I said sternly,placing a copy of the weeks Heat Magazine on the counter where Liam could see it.

''Oh,that! You know the tabloids? They just turned the whole thing around.Dont worry about it babe,you know you-''.he said,but he wasn't answering the question so I cut him off.

''Liam,who is she?''I asked,with a more serious tone this time.

''Ummm that's Angela,Niall met her and brought her to the party that night.We just talked that's all,'' he answered, avoiding eye contact.

''Well,you need to clear this mess up then,'' I continued.

''How?'' He asked with a curious look.

''Arent you guys going to be at Radio 1 tomorrow morning?Do it then,''I said,making sure my point was clear.

He didn't answer. He grabbed a can of soda and walked away. I was scared that maybe I had overreacted but I just had to make sure things were right.

Whoever that mystery girl was, she had to know that I alone was Liam's girlfriend.

LIAM'S POV

The situation had been blown out of proportion. Angela was just a cool girl I met at a club,now she was my mistress? Sometimes I really did hate being so famous.

I liked Angela a lot and I didn't want to make her sound like she didn't matter to me.

The next day at BBC Radio 1, we sat down and put on our headphones. It was the Christopher Moyles' show, one of the most popular shows on radio. Louis and I joked around a bit before we went on air and that eased the tension I was feeling.

''Goodmorning, and you are tuned in to the Christopher Moyles show where im sitting with undoubtedly the most successful boy band in the UK this year,One Direction!'' Chris Moyles said.

''Hey guys,''Harry said.

''Hi there,''Niall followed

''Vashappenin,''Zayn said

''Sup guys,'' I said

''Hey ya,''Louis said.

After a couple of questions and jokes that left the whole studio dying of laughter,the door suddenly flung open and Danielle walked in. The expression on her face was a solemn one. She walked gracefully and sat on a chair next to the door.

''So Liam,can you clarify for us all this news that's been going around about you having a girl on the side?'' Chris asked coincidentally.

My palms began to sweat seeing how anxious I was feeling.

''Umm,yeah about that.I really don't know what to say''.I turned to see Danielle raising her eyebrow in the sort of way you'd only expect in the movies.The tension is the room was escalating.

''But I can clarify that I only have one girlfriend,and that's Danielle,who I've been with for the past 2 years. So I don't have any mistress.'' I tried my best not to sound mean or conceited because after all,I didn't have anything against Angela. In fact,I really liked her and couldn't stop thinking about her.

''So just to give everyone some peace of mind, who is this girl?''Chris asked sternly.

I didn't know what to do. Angela didn't deserve this. I couldn't screw up her life with my issues. At the same time,I couldn't lie.

''Her name is Angela May,we were just at the party and we talked just like what I do in every other party. The pictures seem to suggest otherwise but that was all really.She doesn't mean anything to me.I already have a girlfriend! She's not even a model or anything.''

CRAP! What did I just say? I hope Angela doesn't hear this!

Danielle let out a loud sigh of relief when I finished my sentence and then a smile etched on her face.The studio went silent,Niall gave me a concerned look.

It was one of the most awkward moments of my life.

ANGELA'S POV

I don't know why but after hearing Liam's words on the radio that morning,I hadn't been able to stop the tears from rushing fiercely down my cheeks. Why was I crying? Didn't I expect this after all? It's not like Liam was going to declare his love for me on live national radio! How stupid can you get Angie?Stop crying!Chin up! You're not scared of anyone and you've been through worse. So stop crying,at least I knew how he felt now.

I just don't know why the thought that Liam was different had crossed my mind,no,he was just like all those other celebrities who would do anything to save their images. Whatever! That chapter was now closed.

I slid inside the couch that night,with a tin of my favorite ice cream and watched 'Awkward',one of those shows that always made me laugh.

''Your insecure,

Don't know what for!

Your turning heads-''

I picked up the phone,reminded to change that ringtone and delete that song from my phone. Liam's voice just stirred me up inside.

''Hello,''I mumbled in a sad tone.

''Hello,are my speaking to Angela May?''

''It is she,'' I replied solemnly.

''My name is Scott Robertson from Ford Models UK,and I would like to recruit you to join our agency.''

''I'm sorry,I'm not a model,''I said,ready to hang up,but he pushed his luck.

''You can be a part time model,we would love to have you aboard our agency because we see a lot of potential in you.Please say that you will at least come down to our offices so we can see what kind of modeling would suit you best.I will send you the address in a while. So is that a yes?''

''Umm fine whatever''

I hang up and put it aside,continuing to watch telly.

Then it hit me? If Liam didn't want me? I was pretty sure many other people did,and what better way to show him than to get as famous as he is?

DANIELLE'S POV.

Liam's birthday was nearing and Andy had adviced me on what I should do for him on his birthday. After the whole mess with the false publicity,I wanted the whole world to know that I was Liam's only girlfriend,so I was set to throw him a huge and crazy party,at his favorite club,Funky Buddha.

Sadly it was where he had met,that desperate woman,but she was probably too hurt to even show her face in public. She was probably somewhere crying over Liam for all I care,but at least she got what she deserved for trying to steal what belongs to me.

LIAM'S POV

I felt awful after what I had said on the radio to all those people,maybe including Angela. I couldn't get over it. I knew that I was not that kind of person.I had to do something.

I called up Andy immediately.

'' Hey dude,umm this is gonna sound weird but can you give me Zara's number?This is important.''

Angela's POV

I went down to the agency the next day,I tried to wear clothes that covered me up but clearly I was very recognizable and my twitter followers had increased to 10,384.

''Well that was fast'' I thought to myself,entering the beautifully designed building.I went up to the receptionist who recognized me immediately.

''Miss May,follow me,Mr Robertson is waiting for you,'' she mentioned.

''What? Okay..'' I said,glancing at all the other model hopefuls who were sitting patiently waiting for their chance.

I entered the air conditioned office where the supposed Scott Robertson was waiting for me.The receptionist left and I stood there unknowing of what to expect.

''Oh Angela,sit down please,we have a lot to discuss,'' he started.

''Yeah I guess,'' I said,smiling.

''So,what made you change your mind?'' He asked

''Nothing really,just,why not try it out you know?''

He laughed for a while.

''That sounds like a yes to me!'' He turned to his phone.

''Caroline,call Julio,tell him to be at my office asap''

Suddenly a slightly plump man wearing glasses and a bowtie came in.

''Stand up,we will need your measurements first,''Scott said.

I stood up stiffly and Julio walked towards me and began measuring my bust,hips and waist.

''Perfect,''Julio said.

''You already have a booking Miss May.''

''What? But I just joined your agency!''I looked at him, obviously taken aback by the news.

''it's a competitive world out there young girl haha,you are doing a spread for Cosmo UK,'' he said.

My jaw dropped. It must have been April fools day cause on a normal day I don't think things happen that fast.

''What? How is that even possible?Oh my!''I screamed,smiling.

''Well,anything is possible at Ford Models dear,now go home and get some sleep,you have a long day ahead of you tomorrow,'' he said with emphasis on the 'sleep' part.

Had this guy gone completely bonkers? I had no modeling experience and he was making me pose for Cosmopolitan?What? I almost refused the offer but then I remembered my plan.

''Yes sir,'' I said,walking out of the office. I was ecstatic.Things were working out as planned. Or even better.

While I was in a cab, I got a text from Zara.

'' Baabe,lets meet up for dinner tonight,I found this cool new Chinese place.Here's the address on this map. See you at 7!''

I read the text and smiled. Zara always managed to cheer me up.

I went home and took a bubble bath,it felt good to relax after the few hectic days I had had. After the bath,I just fell on my bed with nothing but my towel on and started thinking of how this whole Cosmo thing was going to be a game changer. I was hyped.

Then I stood up and walked to my closet and picked out one of my cute dresses. I held my hair up and put some lip gloss on.I rushed out of my flat and entered the cab to go try out this new restaurant with my bff.
