It’s been three years since One Direction went on hiatus and stripped meaning away from our lives.
Okay, that’s an exaggeration ‘coz I’ve totally enjoyed seeing the boys slay the game as solo acts but there’s that part of me that still hangs onto hope that they’ll someday reunite.
And while today may not be that day, something exciting is happening in the 1D-verse that needs to be brought to your attention.
The One Direction Twitter account, whose cover photo includes promo for their 2015 album Made In The A.M., has just shared its first tweets since Christmas Day last year.
An unknown member of the fam is tweeting 1D lyrics along with the hashtag #8YearsofOneDirection to celebrate the boys’ eight year anno.
You and me got a whole lot of history, we could be the greatest team that the world has ever seen! #8YearsofOneDirection

And as you close your eyes tonight, I pray that you will see the light, that’s shining from the stars above #8YearsofOneDirection

Baby you and me, stumbling in the street, singing, singing, singing, singing! #8YearsofOneDirection

It’s gotta be you, only you. It’s gotta be you, only you #8YearsofOneDirection

So I built you a house from a broken home and I wrote you a song with the words you spoke #8YearsofOneDirection

Naturally, Directioners have woken from their slumber and are tweeting shook responses to the unexpected social media activity.

Okay, we need answers ASAP. Is this just a sweet lil anniversary thread or is this a pre-cursor to that reunion we’ve all been petitioning the gods for since fkn forever?
To be confirmed, hopefully along with the identity of the tweeter.
