HARRY'S POV
He just stood there. He didn't say a word, didn't move, he was just staring at her, his mouth wide open. The other guys really seemed to like Macy's performance. She looked really nervous, but she didn't let her nerves get to her voice, she sounded amazing.
When the song was done, she looked at Liam, then desperately at me, hoping for me to break the ice. But I didn't know what to say. "What-..." was the only thing Liam could get out of his throat. Niall, Zayn and Louis didn't say anything either, they were waiting for Anyone to say something. "What's all this, Macy?," Liam managed to say.
"Liam, I'm sorry I haven't told you before, but the CD Harry gave to you, well... I recorded it." "What?" "I've been working on it for quite a long time, and Harry knew about that, so when I finished it, I gave him a copy. It wasn't my intention that you would hear it..."
"B-but you said you worked at a boring office!" "I know, but I don't, I'm sorry..." "So what- wait, you lied to me? All along? To all of us?" "I really didn't mean to, I-" "How could you?" I had never seen Liam so angry before. I could see Macy was really hurt by these words. I tried to calm him down. "Liam, it wasn't her intention to-" "Shut up Harry! That's not the point! She lied to all of us! Even when she knew I had listened to it. I just can't believe this!"
Tears were rolling down Macy's face, even though I saw she was trying to stop them. She stood up and ran out of the room. I tried to stop her. "Macy, please wait!" But she was gone already. I looked at Liam, I felt angry now, too. "What the hell, man? Did you have to go so hard on her?" The expression on his face changed. "I don't know, I was just... I don't know, okay? I'm really confused! Why didn't you tell me before?" "Because she is my freaking best friend! She asked me not to!"
I noticed that Liam was holding back his tears, as well. The others left the room, giving us some more privacy. "What's wrong, mate?", I asked him. There came the tears. "It's just... Never mind, it's stupid." "You can tell me everything, you know that!" "Yeah, just like you told me everything!," he said, sarcastically. "That only proves how well I can keep secrets." "Fine. Promise you don't laugh!" "Promised."
"The problem is, that... I really like Macy." "I know." "Yeah, but I mean, not like, as in friends..." "I know." "What? How do you know that?" "I can see it when you look at her. I can see how jealous you get when I hang out with her, I can see how you try to hold back your feelings, by ignoring her." "Oh..."
"You know, Liam, I thinks she feels the same way about you, she just doesn't realize it." "She does?" 'Yes, every time I tell her something, she always asks about you." "She does?" "Yes, and stop repeating what I say!" "Sorry..." A little smile appears on his face. "But what am I supposed to do now, Harry? I really hurt her feelings." "You should try and find her, and tell her how you feel, just like you just did to me. I'm sure everything will work out." "Thank you Harry, you're a really great friend." He gave me a hug and hurried outside.
