 ***Rosie's P.O.V***

Ever since Zayn and I broke up I haven't ever been able to get him off my mind or that might be because everywhere I look his face is plastered everywhere... Front page of the paper, top story on the news, the only thing they're mentioning on the radio.

I knew he wouldn't give into management and I was so proud of him for that but there was no way I was forgiving him just yet. He hurt me so bad all I was to him was his best friends little sister while he was my whole world... Why were guys such jerks? 

Everything had been so complicated lately, well weren't things always complicated? And since I was still stuck with at home as at the moment I did not have enough money to buy my dream apartment next to uni so that meant I was staying the parentals for the time being who also had many questions about why I wasn't hanging much around Lexi anymore.

I was lucky there was the whole court case and Zayn telling management to get stuffed fiasco that the media was just so interested in going down as it was always a great excuse all I had to say was things were just a bit tough at the Malik household and I didn't want to seem like a burden, it worked every single time...

The only problem was I couldn't lie to myself that easily, I knew how much I loved Zayn but I also knew how much he had hurt me and right now I don't think anybody else knew the extent of this besides me, this was always how things were. I had to keep everything bottled up as I was the fun, bright, bubbly girl in peoples eyes and I was determined to stay that way.

I couldn't let people know I was this worked up over a fucking guy! No matter how true it was...

***Louis' P.O.V***
It was actually ridiculous how long it had been since it had just been Lexi and I none of this drama or media attention that was now surrounding everyone even remotely close to Zayn... 

Since Zayn and Lexi's little outburst at management we have all been down at their family home in Bradford just laying low for a few days until things sort of blow over...

Somebody had managed to get both Zayn and Lexi's speeches on camera and this is literally all the news had been playing for the last couple of days, I think we were all hoping that something major would happen somewhere else in the world for that they could finally get off their case. 

The whole outburst had led to the regular rumours such as 1D's breaking up, we won't be able to make anymore music because we've ditched our management etc. etc. But never once mentioning the tricks management played on us... So in everybody's eyes right now we were the bad guys...

And things still weren't easy with Lexi, I felt so sorry for her on top of all of this drama that was happening she was still stuck repeating year 12 as well as having to continuously see a counsellor for her weight issues. (A/N: Who else forgot about Lexi's issues? coz i did! haha oops!) But you could tell things were getting better she was starting to eat more and more and not have that constant pale and tired appearance to her, generally she was just looking more healthy...

"Do you have the counsuellor today?" I ask Lexi cautiously.

"Yeah after school, god I have that english lit test today! Fuck I've barely studied" Lexi curses under her breath.

"C'mon they've got to give you a break with everything that's been happening" I point out.

"Nah they won't Lou, in their opinion they've already helped me enough by letting me repeat, I don't know what I'm going to do!" Lexi sighs in frustration.

"You said english literature right? What book are you studying?" I ask curiously.

"A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens! And this is my second year in a row doing it as well, god I am so stuffed!" Lexi responds.

"Well it's just about a grumpy guy who ends up not to be so grumpy right?" I suggest.

"Lou... there is so much more to it then that!" Lexi chuckles.

"Hey! Only trying to help..." I laugh. 

"Mmmm not working... You're right maybe they'll give me a break for everything that's been going on I mean it's been all over the news for the past couple of days how could anybody not notice! Plus all the english teachers love Zayn so the fact I'm his sister always means I get special treatment" Lexi says remaining optimistic.

"Gosh lucky you!" I tease.

"Hahaha shut up Lou, so why were you asking about the counsellor?" Lexi asks.

"Well... I was just wondering if you wanted me to come again? I just want to see how everything's going..." I explain.

"Umm.. Louis do you remember what happened last time you came? I think it might be best if you stay here... If you're that curious I'll talk to you when I get home okay? Look I've got to go but I'll see you later okay?" Lexi suggests making her way towards the door.

"Lexi wait! I loooove youuu!!" I screech leaning in and giving her a sloppy kiss on the cheek.

"Oh god Lou you're disgusting! Looove you tooo!" Lexi calls out before quickly shutting the door behind her.

"You two are disgusting you know that!?" Zayn scoffs making his way over to the sofa.

"And why's that coz she's your sister? Or becuase you're still pining over Rosie?" I tease.

***Zayn's P.O.V***

It was so hard to see Louis and Lexi all loved up like that and not only because Lexi was my little sister, though I've got to admit that was a pretty big part of it...
