We at heat like to pretend that, despite that blasted hiatus, the One Direction boys are still the best of friends and frequently meet up, get up to hijinks together, and engage in frequent bantz in their WhatsApp group.
But realistically they probably never speak to each other anymore lol.
AT LEAST UNTIL NOW, because Liam Payne has been tweeting some adorable things about Niall Horan. And it’s making us very emotional.
He wrote: .@NiallOfficial proud of how how far we’ve come bro! Everyone go out and buy his album Friday.
And Niall tweeted back: "@LiamPayne indeed ! Thank you Payno. Love ya . Go get this mans single also".
Sidenote: PAYNO!
Fans were, of course, very excited about this exchange
One wrote: “COLLABB COLLABB COLLAB”, another added “and Zayn maybe. That would be nice”.
That wouldn’t indeed be nice.
This comes after Liam recently opened up about a potential 1D reunion.

"I feel like it's going to happen soon, I've got a feeling. I'm excited for it. I want it to happen. There was a whole album that we didn't tour, I know we need to go and write some more music. It was so much fun and everyone loves it so much so we have to go again, for sure," he said while appearing on TLR.
And Niall’s also previously said: "It’s only been two years, or less than two years [since we took a break]. It’s like two years in my life. I’m hoping to live a long life, so two years out of it is not a very long time neither is three or neither is four. We have to just wait until everyone’s ready to go again, we’ll go again. It’d be nice to think that we stopped at a high point, it’d be nice to pick up from there.
C’MON, GUYS, MAKE IT HAPPEN
