The flashbulbs of Paul’s wedding party popped in the background, a chaotic symphony of fame. Outside, the night air was cool against the heat of the crowd. Louis and Zayn leaned against the stone wall, smoke curling from their lips as they shared a quiet moment away from the prying eyes of the bride’s family. You stood nearby, having just endured an hour of introductions and forced smiles with the relatives who stared at you with wide, adoring eyes. The weight of being the world's most famous boy band felt heavy, even in this brief respite. You watched them, a smirk playing on your lips as you reached for your own cigarette, ready to join their rebellion.
