Harry sat on the floor of the living room. He heard the front door open, and stood to see who it was. It was Niall in a bro tank and he was all sweaty, indicating he had just gotten back from the gym. Harry went up to give him a hug, but Niall backed away.
"Eww, Harry! I'm all sweaty!"
Harry smiled.
"I don't care."
"But I do! Let me shower first, alright?"
Harry sighed.
"Fine, fine."
Niall flashed him a smile and ran upstairs to the bathroom. Niall always seemed to put a smile on Harry's face. He walked back to the living room and fell soundly asleep on the couch.
                                   *~*
Harry awake an hour later to a horrible sound. Almost like gagging or dry heaving. Someone was definetly throwing up in the bathroom. He walked upstairs. He and Niall were the only ones in the house. Was Niall sick? Did he have the flu? Harry rushed upstairs and lightly tapped on the bathroom door. There was no answer, so he let himself in. There, kneeling in front of the toilet, was Niall. But he wasn't sick. He had two fingers down his throat. Niall shot up from where he kneeling.
"Harry!? What are you doing here?!"
"I..um.."
"Get out!!!"
Harry quickly shut the door. He backed away from it and slid down the opposite wall. Was Niall bulimic? Why? Everyone knew he was perfect. 5 minutes later, Niall  came out of the bathroom. Harry started to stand, but Niall had rushed into his bedroom before Harry had the chance. Harry walked over to Niall's bedroom door and knocked.
He heard a muffled "Go away" on the other side. Like hell he was going to leave Niall in this state.
"Niall let me in or I'll let myself in."
Harry heard another "Go away" but much softer. Harry turned the knob and let himself in. Niall was curled up in a fetal position on his bed. Harry sat next to him.
"Niall, why?"
Niall sat up.
" You wouldn't understand. Everything about you is perfect. You're beautiful, you're talented, and everyone loves you. You wouldn't understand."
Harry was taken aback. Everyone loved Niall as well.
"Niall, you have so many fans!"
Niall released a short, harsh laugh.
"Yeah, and that was after I started working out and getting thinner. Obviously these girls are just in it for our looks. They have to be because without the looks, I'm nothing. I'm not a good singer. Without the looks, I'm the hanger on in this group. One wrong move and management will kick me out."
Harry stood.
"If management kicked you out, I would leave as well! And the others would do the same!"
Niall sighed.
"This is the only way for me to stay, Harry. I don't have a choice."
"Niall, you do have a choice. It is not the only way. Doing this to yourself won't make it better! You have to ignore the haters and listen to the real Directioners. The ones who love you just as much as they love the rest of us. And a lot love you even more."
"Oh I highly doubt that."
"Have you even looked at the blogs dedicated to us? To you? There are millions of girls on the Internet who love you for your voice and your personality. If you took the time to look for the good fans, you would see they overshadow all of the bad ones." Niall sat up.
"Really? There are some good ones?"
"Nialler, there are millions of them! The only really bad one is you. You're to hard on yourself. You should be enjoying this!"
"But Harry... I don't know if I can stop."
Harry took Niall's hands in his.
"I'll help you. We'll all help you. We are all here for you, babe."
Harry pulled Niall into a tight hug, and he could feel Niall smiling against his chest.
