Liam’s POV

"Thank you, guys." She thanks us and we all nod back, except for Harry.

Harry wiped away the last tear that trailed down her face. She flinched out of his grasp which made Harry remove his hand but they still held eye contact. Chasity cleared her throat which made Amber break the contact by looking to her friend.

“How about we head back to the kitchen and clean up, yeah?” She suggests, standing up. We all nodded in agreement and stood up but Harry looked confused.

“Wait, that it?” Harry asks. She nodded simply. He looked back to us and we all shrugged. Please Harry, don’t push it. She probably didn’t want this to happen, let it go…

“You don’t need, like, medication, go to the doctor, or anything?” He asked as he slowly rose off of the bed, standing up fully. She seemed taken back by what he said. My eyes widened slightly and I looked over to the other lads, knowing that they were thinking the same thing.

“I don’t need it. It just happens.” She says, defending herself. She gets up and off on her side of the bed, joining Chasity.

“Amber, that doesn’t ‘just happen’. People don’t become unconscious without a reason!” He pressed on, quoting with his fingers.

“Harry…” I cut in, absolutely astonished that of all times he has to act this way now.

He looked over to me, and gave me a questioning look, probably wondering why I am not wondering the same thing. I am, but I don't want to push any buttons. I gave him a knowing stare, telling him to let it be, just don’t push her. He sighed.

“Let’s just go clean up.” He huffed, walking out of the room. It became silent as he left, but we all proceeded behind him, giving sorry faces to Amber, who only nodded and walked with us.

We all went back to the kitchen, and helped clean dishes before putting them away, and re-set the table. I noticed that Harry kept his distance from all of us, and just started going through his phone in deep thought. I looked over to Amber as she finished drying the dishes that Chasity and Niall washed, and began putting them back in the cabinets.

Zayn gave Harry the bag of trash and he went outside through the back door to throw it away. Zayn and Louis were back at the table clearing what was left. They did their best to remove the juice stains from the table cloths and floor around it that had come only moments earlier.

“You don’t celebrate your birthday?” I asked her, feeling a bit disappointed that she doesn’t. She shook her head at me, breaking off eye contact.

"I just don't, never really had time or money for it." She explains as she began to pick another piece of food off of her plate.

I watched her movements, noticing the color change in her eyes as they went darker. Before I could process it, her head went back onto the chair, her eyes shut, not saying a word. Her hands fell down, causing her plate and cup of juice to spill all over the table and the floor around her. The boys and I froze for a moment looking at each other, confused.

“Amber?” Harry cautiously called out. No response. Chasity looked up and quickly mumbled something under her breath and leaped out of her seat. That’s when we panicked.

“It’s okay everyone, don’t panic!” Chasity went over to Amber and picked up her head, to examine her face. Harry joined her just as the rest of us got out of our seats.

“Amber!” Harry said, freaking out. She still didn’t respond. That's it. I pulled out my phone and began to dial 911.

“I’m calling for help...” Chasity bolted to me and took my phone away from my grasp.

“Don’t, it's okay guys.” She said as she looked at my screen, making sure that I didn’t hit call. She turned off the screen and handed it back to me.

“Chasity, what’s going on??” Harry asked harshly, as she lifted Amber’s arms up, and placing her on her back.

“She's fine. I am going to her room to lie her down, just calm down.” She answered him. Harry stopped her actions and picked Amber off of her back, and carried her bridal style. Chasity didn’t argue and just led the way. We all left the kitchen as it was, and followed them out to what was Amber’s room.

“Chasity, can you explain what is happening to Amber?” I asked kindly, as Harry set Amber down on her bed, delicately moving any strands of hair from her face. Harry’s face became slightly pale as he looks at her face.

“Okay, don’t freak out, but right now, she is unconscious." She started.

"Well I think we got that part." Louis says sarcastically. She shakes her head and continues.

"This happens though, and I know how to deal with it. She should actually be waking up any minute now. They aren’t usually long, anyways.”

“What are?” Harry asks. Chasity seemed lost for words.

“It’s not my place to say.” She said. By now, we were all scattered around the room. I sat down next to her closet door, Niall sat on top of the desk, Louis sat in the chair to the desk, Zayn stood at the door, and Harry and Chasity were on the bed with an unconscious Amber in between them.

“Niall, can you not sit on the desk?” I quietly spoke to Niall. He looked at me.

“Liam, are you calling me fat?” He pouts, pressing his hand against his heart.

“Niall, you are anything but fat. I just don’t want you sitting on other people’s desks.” I clarified to him.

“Its alright Liam. I do it all the time. Amber won’t mind.” Chasity said quietly, defending him. Niall smiled at her.

“Alright.” She nodded kindly and I returned the gesture. She looked down to her friend as Harry turns his head as well. After a minute or so, we all began to worry, until we heard Chasity sigh in relief. We looked to the bed and saw Amber looking at us all, taking in her surroundings.

“Guys, can you give us a minute?” Chasity asks us quietly. We all hesitated for a moment before leaving the room. I stood in the hallway, waiting for the sound of a door shutting, but never coming. I looked back in the room to see Harry inside still. Chasity looked over to him.

“Harry?”

“I’m staying.” He states.

“Harry, please go for a quick moment, I will call you back when we are done, okay?” Chasity said. He sighed, before getting up and leaving, closing the door quietly, keeping his back to us. We all looked at him as silence came in the hallways. The only sound that was heard was the faded voices coming from inside the room.

“What?” he asked after he turned around and saw us watching his every move.

“You like her, don’t you?” Louis asked, crossing his arms. Niall, Zayn and I did the same action.

“I was only concerned.” He said, avoiding the question.

“Harry, we are all good friends here, you can tell us that you like her.” I said, walking over to him, placing my hand on his shoulder. He sighed.

“Alright, maybe a little.” We all smiled. The sound of footsteps coming towards the door interrupted us as we watched the door. Chasity opened the door and stuck her head out of the room, out of ear shot form Amber.

“Guys, don’t ask her about what happened yet, alright? She isn’t ready to talk about it. Also, don’t treat her any different way than how we were before this. Act as if it didn’t happen, okay?” She quickly asked us. We all nodded our heads before she stepped aside, letting us back in. We all greeted her with a curt nod and a smile, before going back to our previous spots.

I casually walked up to Amber as she reached up to put the dishes away into the cabinets.

“Here, let me help you with that.” I offered, taking the plate from her hand and stacked it on top of another plate.

“Thank you Liam. Can you put these in there as well?” She asked me, showing the remainder of the plates, obviously embarrassed. I smiled at her and nodded, taking them from her grasp and placing them in the cabinets as well.

“Any more?” I asked her, but she shook her head.

“I can handle the cups. Thank you Liam.” She thanks me.

“Anytime Amber.” I said with a smile. Harry walked back in and walked into the living room to join the rest of the boys other than Liam to watch TV. I saw Amber watched as he walked in, not turning to face or even acknowledge us. Once he was out of ear shot I spoke up.

“Hey, you alright?” I whispered, placing a hand on her shoulder, snapping her out of her gaze. She turned to me.

“Of course, Liam.” She says, slightly smiling. She walked over to the cabinets for the cups and placed them inside, with me behind her. She had a couple more cups left, and didn’t have much more room on the first shelf, and the second one was just as high as the previous cabinet. She turned to me, and held the remaining cups in her hand, pouting at me. I shook my head smiling and took them from her, and placing them on the second shelf.

“Thank you, again.” She said, chuckling, which only made me chuckle as well.

“Listen, about what Harry said earlier...“ I started but she cut me off.

“Don’t worry about it. It didn’t really bother me. I can see where he is coming from. And he’s right. I know people don’t just happen to pass out without a valid reason, but, I have mine.” She looks away from me, and down to her feet.

“And I respect that. Which is why, if you want, you can always text me if you want to talk about it. I won’t tell the others of what you say. I promise. But that’s if you want to, I am not forcing you to. Just giving you an option, alright?” I tell her, as a smile forms on her face.

“Thanks Liam…” She pauses for a moment. “I am thanking you a lot today.” She said.

“No need to thank me. You can call me Li.” I tell her. She nodded.

“Alright, Li. You can call me... Amps.” She said jokingly.

“Alright, Amps.” I chuckled.

“Liaaaam!!!!!” I heard Louis call me from the living room.

“What Louis?”

“Can you come to the door for a minute??” I stiffened. Please don’t let it be for what I think it is…

“One moment.” I responded.

“What’s wrong Li?” Amber asked me. I brought my finger up to my lips to shush her. She had a confused look but nodded anyways.

I looked around the kitchen and found a large pan. I held it up and Amber looked at me wide eyed. I shook my head harshly, telling her its not what she thinks. She is now very confused and begins to walk out ahead of me, curiosity leading the way..

“Amber, wait!” I whisper yelled, but it was no use. She screamed as multiple little lollipops came at her. She fell to the floor as she could not take the amount of candy being thrown at her as she laughed loudly. Louis then started yelling.

“NOOO! BAMBI! CEASE FIRE! I REPEAT, CEASE FIRE!” He yelled out. I cautiously walked out to see the damage, as I see her on the floor, Louis running at her, sliding on his knees as he stopped right in front of her just as I came to the doorway. Thank goodness the floor is tiled, and not carpeted, or else he would have a pretty bad rug burn.

“Jesus, Liam! Why did you let her take the wrath, you arse!!!” He scolds me, as Amber continued to laugh at the situation upon her.

Chasity was hiding behind the couch, holding her stomach, laughing as well. The others joined in, except for Harry, who only studied her from his spot on the couch before turning his attention back to his phone, typing away. Niall held a large bowl of lollipops, with a couple already in his mouth. Zayn held another large bowl of lollipops, and by his feet was yet another bowl with all of its candy spilled around it, which I am guessing was Louis’.

“Are you alright Amps?” I asked her, using her nickname that she let me use. She nodded, wiping away some of her tears from laughing too much.

“Hey, I’m the only that can use nicknames for her…” Louis said while pouting.

“I already got the okay.” I said, sticking my tongue out to him, while he shook his head. I stuck my hand out for her to grab so I could pull her up. Once I did, she looked at the floor.

“Did you guys just throw my lollipops at me?” She questioned them after regaining her breath. Zayn and Niall slowly put their bowls down, and Niall took out the lollipops in his mouth and re-wrapped them, shoving them in his pocket, no doubt for later.

“No…” The three of them say simultaneously. She leaned on one hip, crossing her arms, and tapped her foot.

“Alright, we did, but it was supposed to be aimed at Liam, okay? Please stop!” Louis said, averting his eyes from Amber.

“It’s alright, as long as you guys pick up this mess and make sure that all three bowls contain the SAME amount of lollipops, and put them back where you found them.” She said, smiling at the end.

“Please, anything but math.” Niall pleaded with the most saddest face I have ever seen on him.

“Hey, if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.”

“Hey! No quoting SpongeBob!” Zayn shouts.

We all laughed as they began to pick up the lollipops and count. The TV began to play SpongeBob, so I sat down next to Harry, Amber sat next to me, and Chasity sat at the end. I tried to look at what Harry was doing, but he turned his phone to the side so I couldn’t see who he was texting. Odd.
