Timing is Everything (Liam Payne)

Dallas. I wake up tired, but the show must go on. I arrive early and get everything laid out on the table so when they come in, were ready to go. A secretary has been assigned to help me which is nice, I usually don't have any help. Shortly after starting one of the members of the advertising department comes in.
"We will have two people not with us today, one is on maternity leave, another, a family emergency."
Great, just effing great. I try my hardest not to let it show in my face or my body language, but that knocks it down to five people. Now I question why I'm even here. It pretty much sets the tone for the entire week. All week is bickering and stone walling, not only among themselves but me. Now I see why the program didn't work here. It may have its kinks and bugs, but this is the problem. They need a major overhaul. As bad as I hate to do it, corporate will have to be called in on this one.
This week can not go by fast enough. Its draining me. I'm so exhausted when I get back to the hotel, I'm not resting when I sleep.
I've spoken with Liam almost every day and he's tried to encourage me by counting down the days. I liked to think of it in that way but I have to focus on the task at hand so I can look forward to being with him.
I have never been so happy to board a plane and go home in my life. Turbulence, hell, bring it on, after everything I've been through this week.
I almost want to cry when I walk into the doors of my condo, but no sooner than I do, my phone rings. I look and its the office, dear God, no.
"Glad we got you, next week is a no go. Their head of advertising will be out of the country as well as her vice."
"Thank you. Oh Brenda, I have down the following two weeks as being out of the office, put down next week also. "
I call and let everyone know. I have everything ready for the next three meetings. I am out of here.
I leave a text on Liam's phone and call the airlines. I leave day after tomorrow. Singapore, here I come.
The flight alone will take one day. I have my I pad with plenty of books to read so hopefully it will go fast, hopefully. I am set to arrive the day before the concert. I have packed I think everything I have.
I arrive and instantly am reminded this is not the US. Liam has sent Paddy to help me and I find him with in moments of finding my luggage. We exchange small talk and catch up on how things have been going, almost like talking to a friend, except he's here for my safety which is somewhat alarming to me.
We arrive at the hotel and there are girls everywhere, screaming, singing, jumping at our car. He pulls into a parking garage and I'm ushered inside. "That was nuts" I say looking at Paddy. "Get used to it" he says "it comes with the man you're seeing". I take a deep breath in and follow him to the elevator. He slides a card and we head up. The doors open, with one hand leaning on the frame is LIam, waiting on me. We try to keep it as professional as we can with everyone sort of standing around, because the noise outside is unreal. We hug and he picks me up in that hug holding me close.
"Get a room" Zayn says as he walks by, Perrie in tow, her winking at me. El greets me with a hug and asks how my flight was. "Crazy out there isnt it?" she asks me. Niall grabs one of my bags to help Liam and follows us to our room.
"Perrie and I are going out tomorrow to get some traditional outfits, would you like to come?"
"Yes! Oh course. The guys will be busy most of the day anyway." I answer.
"Who needs them anyway" Perrie chimes in as she comes in our room and sits on the bed.
"Oh no, this is not the girl hang out room" Liam says as he comes back in. "You all will have to pick another room for that."
"Come on El" as she links arms with her, "We know where were not wanted, plus I think they want alone time." she makes kissing noises as they walk out the door.
"I thought they'd never leave" he says as he puts his arms around me and pulls me in for a long kiss.
"Mmmm I missed that" I say as we pull away. "I need a shower. I have been on a plane and I feel like yuck."
"I'll join you, if that's all right"
"Wouldn't have it any other way"
We take a shower with no funny business, just kissing and bathing. As we get out we both put on one of the hotel robes and he exits the bathroom while I tie up my hair in a towel. I hear the a knock at the door.I come out to see who it is, I'm fully covered, nothing showing.
"Mate, were kind of busy."
"I really need to talk to you both."
I come around to see Harry at the door.
"Hey Harry. You need something?"
"I need to talk to the both of you"
"Its fine Liam, he can come in, if its ok with you." He steps aside.
I sit down and start taking my hair out of the towel and fluffing it. Whatever Harry wants to talk about is really bothering him. His hands are in his pockets and he's fidgeting. He wont look at me, he's never been like this towards me.
"Do you want me to go change, I will if it makes you more comfortable."
He doesn't answer directly. "No you're fine, its me."
"Well, what is it mate?"
"Never mind, we can talk later. You two have some catching up to do and I'm interrupting."
Liam walks into the bedroom and comes back out in some black boxers, its all I can do not to stare.
"Can I talk to Liam alone first?"
"Sure" I get up and go into the room and put on some sweats and a t shirt. Not thirty seconds later all hell breaks loose.
"What the fuck Harry? Why did you do that? You totally invaded mine and her privacy!"
I run out of the room and the look on Liam's face is one I have never seen and hope I never do again. Harry's is shameful.
"Harry here, saw a text you sent me and decided he would investigate further. Deceived me and looked through my pictures on my phone and saw the pictures of you I have on there."
I am mortified. What I have on now, doesn't seem to cover me enough.
"Oh my God" is all I can whisper.
"Rachel, I am so sorry. I have been beating myself up since I did it."
"Oh, so now you want to fuck her huh? Want to see in real life what she looks like, what she's like in bed"
The atmosphere in the room is getting thicker and more heated by the minute and Liam madder. I know everyone outside can hear whats going on.
"Want to do a threesome, oh I'm sure you'd like that!"
He just wont stop. "Liam, that's enough, please. He's put himself through enough torture as it is."
"You're lucky I don't put you into next week"
"I'd probably feel better if you did."
"I've got to get out of here, I'm going to the gym." He goes into the bedroom and gets dressed and leaves.
I'm left there standing with Harry. I go to him and make him look at me, he had yet to look at me.
"So, what was different in those pics than seeing me in a bikini or just any other girl?" I ask.
"You were sexy. I didn't see Liam's girl, I saw a sexy girl."
I laugh a little, "Look at me, does this look sexy?"
He looks at me and smiles, "Not really, but I now know whats under there now."
I walk over to him and reach up to his face, and kiss his cheek. "You're a real sweet heart, you didn't have to tell us, but you did and I applaud you for that. But now you are going to either get over seeing me in that way or learn to look past it because I'm going to be around a while. Now you better go find Liam and square things with him. I'm fine. Seen one boob seen 'em all"
"Not really "
"Harry, go before I kick your ass" I say kidding. He bows, turns and leaves.

Down in the gym -
"Harry, don't even come in here and talk to me"
"Liam, shouldn't you hear him out. I mean, he did tell you, he didn't have to" Paddy implies as he takes the bar from him.
"I ought to kick your ass right here"
"And you probably should". Harry says standing his ground.
Liam is putting his boxing gloves on. "Come on Harry, go get your gloves, I'll wait."
"No way mate, you'll kill me the way you are now."
"Look, I'm in no mood to talk, I need to blow off steam and its best if you are not here."
"But we need to talk this out. We cant let it get between us."
"Then you should not have looked at pics of my girlfriend." He says as he punches Paddy's hands. "Those were private."
Harry throws up his hands and walks out.

Back upstairs -
"So, Harry saw some nudes of you?" Perrie whispers.
"Yes" I say, trying not to make a bigger deal of it.
""I have no idea what Zayn would do if that happened, probably knock him out without even speaking. How do you feel about it?"
"Actually, I'm fine. I don't like it that he deceived Liam into looking at them, but he's seen them now and that's it."
I think they are all actually surprised I'm as calm as I am, but what more can I do?
They all leave our room so I can get settled. Liam has been at the gym a while, he'll be back any minute now. Not five seconds later he walks in the door. I don't know how to approach him because he was and is quite possibly still mad.
"Now I need another fucking shower" he slamming things around and making a commotion. I just sit there and let him. He stands in the door, "I mean, what am I supposed to do now? I don't feel comfortable letting him see you at the pool or even dressed up showing a little. Am I supposed to let him come in here and see you and let him get it out of his system."
"That's a little harsh don't you think?" trying to calm him down.
I go to him and and tip toe up and kiss him, "You do whatever you need to do to get past this, I've forgiven him."
"What do or what would girls do about a pic of their boyfriends?"
"You don't want to know." I say, hoping he will move on and quick.
"What do you mean?"
"You don't want to know, because I've done it."
"You snuck a look?"
"Well, when its being passed around you cant really help it."
"The fuck?!"
"Told you, you didn't want to know"
"What about mine?"
"That is a big fat NO. First off, remember, I've had to sign confidentiality agreements and I'm not into letting others see my guy. Those were just friends of mine."
He seems fine now. He has got to get past this.
"Look, why don't you all go out tonight and have some beers. Me and the girls will stay around"
"And talk about all this" he adds. I just laugh and nod my head yes at him. He turns and goes to get in the shower.
As the guys leave Harry takes up the rear, slowly moving behind them, they've all given him the silent treatment. A few beers will help things.
The girls come in and talk about it. I guess the reason I'm doing fine with it is because my friends have passed around the nudes of their boyfriends and they've sat around and compared dick size. So him seeing my boobs is nothing to me. At first, yeah, I was shocked and embarrassed, then I got over it, because I knew this would happen.
After talking, making mixed drinks, playing card games and getting a little tipsy, we each go to our own rooms and go to bed, knowing the guys will be out late.
The whole hall knows when they get in. I wake up and listen to Liam sliding the card several times, then someone does it for him, Paddy probably. He walks in and he's talking to someone.
I sit up as he turns on a lamp and makes his way into the room.
He takes his clothes off at the foot of the bed and crawls up the bed and lays down. He throws his arm over me and says something. I ask him to repeat it.
"If I wasn't so drunk, I'd fuck you against the wall."
OK, but he is drunk. I kind of laugh and help get him in the bed.
We wake up and it is really bright in here. He moans, I laugh at him. He moves over to me and lays his head on my chest. He moves closer to me and I put my hand in his hair just running my fingers through it. Then closer, so close, I feel his hardness against my leg.
I pull my shirt over my head and slide out of my panties, then help him out of his boxers, roll him over and straddle him.
"I want it rough" he says, his eyes still closed. I bend over and bite his lower lip. "Rougher. I have an idea" and he moves me off of him, gets up, takes my hand and leads me to the door. He pushes me against the wall and bends down to my lips kissing me hard, His tongue finding mine and begging for more. His hands are holding my breasts, kneading them, pulling and pinching my nipples. He moves one hand to my wetness and puts a finger in and uses his thumb to massage my clit. Mine and his breathing getting faster. He lets go of my breasts and puts both hands under my butt and lifts me onto him. He enters me forcefully, I moan and gasp for breath. I hold onto him at his neck. He's pushing hard, letting gravity pull me back down to him. He pulls me off the wall and takes me to the bed, pushes my knees back to get as deep as possible and starts driving his cock in me groaning with every push. He's pushing so hard, I'm having to hold my boobs. He lets one knee down and uses that hand to massage my clit, sending me over, I scream the orgasm is so intense. He pumps hard a few more times and comes groaning as he spills inside me. Were both out of breath and it is feeling rather warm in the room.
He walks out of the room and there on the couch is Niall. He had followed Liam in last night. Now he has heard us have sex. He is sitting there beating off. "Don't mind us, go ahead finish" Liam tells him, as he comes back in the room. "God! Will we ever get a break?!" I laugh into the pillow. I don't know if I laugh because its funny or laugh from embarrassment. Niall talks to the door, "I'm leaving now." Liam yells back "Anytime, glad we could be of assistance."
We shower and head down for breakfast, all eyes are on us as we enter the room. "Would anyone else like to listen while we have sex or look at naked pics of my girlfriend" Liam announces as we enter. Everyone laughs and goes back to eating.
Yeah, I think he's over it now.

Notes

So, this was a fun chapter to write :))

Crazy Bitch - I absolutely love this song. And it sounds even better when the words aren't blocked out
