For Tonight Let's Just Pretend

Hi, my name is Courtney, & I'm 24 years old. OTRA KC was AMAZING!

i have no idea how to process this. it’s not unfathomable and it’s something i’ve thought about many times but i don’t actually know how to process it. what do you mean he was such an integral part of me growing up and he did some fucked up things in part bc of the fucked up environment he grew up in and now he’s DEAD and can’t do anything to try and make amends. what do u mean the boys now means harry louis liam niall zayn. what do you mean he left behind a child less than 10 years old. what the fuck do you mean

I just know it’s gonna really hit me the moment one of the boys says something and then I’m gonna lose it.

one direction (2010).

feeling grief over someone who shaped part of your childhood / teenage years ≠ excusing his actions.

you can grieve someone and still not like them or agree with their actions. a reminder that two things can be true at once.

[pop-punklouis]

this is. unfathomable. i’m shell shocked.

i’m hugging all of you so strongly right now. no matter what was going on, liam was such a big part of my teenage years and even twenties. he was such a big part of that band. he had such a big heart. there’s so many feelings i cant even put into words just racing through my head right now. my heart hurts for his family, his friends, the boys god the boys.

we all kinda grew up together with them and to see something like this is ungodly to even comprehend. this is such a dark fucking day. i don’t even know what to say. i never ever ever wanted to ever hear this news and to see it like this on a fucking instagram canva post from ABC news. i’m nauseous.

heartbroken

I wish for nothing more at this point than for Liam's soul to find peace and for his family and the boys to have absolute privacy to grieve. To anyone harassing them, fans begging for statements, or the media getting ready to exploit their pain — I hope you rot in hell.

seeing so many people who haven’t been here for a while . we’re all family and will always be . what we got to experience is rare and precious . hope time will allow us to look back at it with joy and peace again . hugging all of you tight

[dinosaursmate]

to my friends who I am still in contact with, those who I lost contact with, those who were still around and those who, like me, have emerged from the woodwork due to tragedy - I love you I see you I’m thinking of you

[ofcnialll]

i literally don’t know where else to turn. i hope everyone is okay ❤️

[femstyles]

Those 5 boys and the community around them held such a strong role in shaping me and knowing one of them is just... no more... I can't explain this feeling.

my one direction heart is hurting 💔

[aajjks]

one direction, and it’s every single member were a part of many ppls adolescence, especially mine.. every single member had a special place in my heart, Liam Payne was not a good person but no one deserves to die so young, I cant imagine the pain of his family and his little son right now.

Be Kind, to everyone.

[texashippiecowboy]

i’m in true shock x

[chilling-seavey]

We were supposed to be mourning our 1D boys in our 80s. Not now. I’m speechless.

[harrysbroadshoulders]

Honestly thought I’d be like 78 years old before I’d get the news that a member of one direction died

[lerrieslovechild]

I am definitely not ready for the tributes from Louis , Niall Zayn and Harry.

[noukeeeh]

you know the post that's like: one day I'll be 45 at a party and ill hear a one direction song and ill be dancing my heart out because I never learned to love anything as much as I love one direction?......... yeah.......thinking of that right now
