"I remember everything"

Third persons pov
Maisie was in a pub in London with her two best mates Arabella and chloe they've been mates since they were 3 and have been inseparable since, they both had boyfriends so they were with them as well but Maisie had been single for around a month now, her ex boyfriend was Gene Gallagher and she doesn't go a day without thinking of him he broke her heart and she just had to accept it, "so then mai eye on any lads or birds whichever way you go" Chloe's boyfriend Jamie spoke "i dunno Jamie I might have to steal your bird" Maisie said leaning over kissing his girlfriends nose "im going to get another drink" Maisie spoke getting up, she hasn't really been drinking since she doesn't really feel the need to anymore Gene was her life of the party and bad influence, as she walked up to the bar she ordered a double gin n tonic hoping it would get her even just a little buzzed, she got her drink and payed and turned around to go back to the table *thump* her face went straight into somebodies chest "I I'm I'm so sorry I should've been watching where I was going" she spoke worriedly but embarrassed "mai?" She heard a familiar voice she looked up to see not only sonny starkey "oh hi sonny" she said in a soft voice "you want to come sit?" He asked politely completely forgetting it wasn't her place anymore although she did consider it before glancing over at the table he was gesturing to and locked eyes with nobody other than Gene who was sipping his larger "I actually better get going to the girls sonny sorry maybe another time" she said shamefully feeling her heart in her throat "oh yea totally" sonny said kinda copping on to the situation "bye then" she spoke again with a warm smile before walking back, suddenly all the memories with Gene came flooding back to when she had gone on tour with him and his dad one years to America and how she drove him around in her dads rental car around the whole of the town that was close by, all the cigarettes they shared.., all the kisses.. everythi- *thump* not again Maisie thought "I am so sorry I don't know what's up with me tonight" she said collecting herself "don't worry girl" an American accent spoke "I'm zach" she heard him speak again, holy shit it was zach bryan "oh yeah I know.. wait not in a weird way though just that I know.. sorry I'm Maisie" she said going red "you any good at singing Maisie?" He asked her "erm I'm okay I guess" she said looking at her dirty converse "well I see a guitar and I need a girl to sing this song with me..you seem nice enough why don't you come join me on that stage" Maisie couldn't believe her ears THE zach Bryan was inviting her to sing with him "uh erm sure" she said with a beaming smile "im on in ten cmon" he said leading the way to wherever he was going.

Ive been in the pub atleast 3 times a week for atleast 6 hours since i broke up with Maisie i regret it and i wish I could go back in time, i was snapped outve my thoughts when i seen her talking to sonny her hair was in the messy braid that i love so much and she was wearing a white Beatles shirt that sat so nice on her and she was wearing a black skirt and her same old dirty converse i admired her smile as she smiled at sonny and then we locked eyes and her face just dropped and then she was away from sonny as soon as possible, my dad had told me zach Bryan was supposed to sing a song in the pub as a surprise but apparently had to cancel because the female singer couldn't make it to London shame really i was excited to hear that song, even though it isn't usually my style Maisie loves country music, 10 minutes have passed and everyone's eyes looked to the small stage in the corner of the pub as zach bryan appeared, "hi yall im here to sing yall my hit of the year i remember everything... sadly kacey couldn't join us but i managed to find another lovely lady for us to listen to... this is Maisie!" Zach exclaimed as I seen what was my gorgeous ginger haired girlfriend walk out onto the stage in an awkward manner "you ready?" Zach said to her in the microphone Maisie had propped herself up on the stool beside Zach and nodded at him, I couldn't believe what I was seeing how is she not absolutely going mad.

Maisie's pov
I was now looking out on the crowd that was usually in the pub I was shitting meself but it didn't matter did it really I was related to 3 people in this room, I swayed a little as Zach sang his verse, I was already getting emotional this song was on repeat lately, it was now my turn to sing and I was still nervous and tearing up,

I listened as I knew it was her turn to sing and I could see that she was nervous,

"You're drinking everything just to ease your mind...but when the hell are you gonna ease mine?...

She was staring into my soul she looked as if she was about to cry

"Your like concrete feet in the summer heat...
That burns like hell when two souls meet..
No, you'll never be the man that you always swore.. but I'll remember you singing in that 88' ford..."

I never knew mai could sing but she was a beautiful singer but she was crying and I knew that it was all my fault that she shed the tears she's shedding,

"A cold shoulder at closing time,
You were beggin' me to to stay til the sun rose..
Strange words..come on out,
Of a grown man's mouth when his minds broke..
Pictures.. and passing time you only smile like that when you're drinkin'...
I wish I didn't but I do remember every moment on the nights with you..."

She finished singing but never broke the eye contact my heart was paining me as I looked at her but the crowd was loving it, "Gowan Maisie!!" I heard Arabella shouting as the song finished,

Maisie was heartbroken and it showed during the performance, Gene had overwhelming guilt flowing over him,
Maisie walked back over to the bar about half an hour later to get another drink but she only wanted an orchard thieves can "you were really good out there Maisie" she heard a familiar voice say, she whipped her head around to see Gene sitting there with red eyes and a red nose he had clearly been crying "thanks" she spoke bluntly before taking her drink off the barman "I'm sorry" Gene spoke quickly slightly grabbing her wrist as she started to get up Maisie tried to hold back her tears but she couldn't hold them any longer they just flooded out as she turned to look at Gene who looked knackered "why Gene.. why now? She spoke sounding almost like a piece of her was missing "I just don't know what I was thinking zee" Gene said looking down at his hands "Gene you broke me..completely and you expect me to just take you back? I was stuck in bed for nearly 2 weeks and didn't eat for them 2 weeks either unless I was force fed..I didn't leave my room only to shower and even getting up for that was hard..you've no idea how hard it's been for me.." Maisie said before leaving him there and walking out the pub door "maisie.." Gene spoke after her but she just walked away, Maisie didn't go far though she just sat outside for about 25 minutes having a smoke and her can until somebody came out the pub door and came up to her giving off an angry manner, it was Gene, "you think I wasn't hurt?! You don't think I struggled either? Your selfish maisie Cooke so selfish to think I was completely fine!" Gene spoke getting angry at the girl infront of him "I loved you! I still do! And I think it's fu-f-ff-ucking impeccable that you thought and think I don't!" Now shouting a bit "Gene..." Maisie spoke gently knowing that Gene was obviously drunk "no! Maisie don't!" Gene said rubbing his head with his palm "Gene stop..stop.." she said moving closer placing her hand on his forearm and the other on his cheek "it's okay Gene please" Maisie said as the boy started bawling infront of her, she took him and he put his head down into her collarbone sobbing "shhh sh it's okay cmon Gene" she said rubbing the back of his neck "Im sorry.. I am I'm so sorry I didn't want to hurt you I'm sorry zee I miss you I miss everything about you everything..." Gene said pulling away and looking down into her glassy eyes "meet me on the heath tomorrow by the bushes near the forest and we can talk about this Gene" Maisie said letting out a breathe, she wanted to walk away and not say anything and leave him there the way he left her but her heart wasn't able to take that so that's why she offered for the meet up "okay" Gene said looking down at his feet "I've to go now.." Maisie spoke to him, he started tearing up as she said that, Gene didn't want her to go because he was scared of seeing her walk away "okay" he said bluntly again "I promise I'll see you tomorrow" Maisie said holding his cheek in her hand as he leaned into it the way he used to "I trust you" he said, Maisie kissed genes cheek and turned on her feet to head back to her house that was a 20 minute walk away from there, Gene felt empty and lost but somewhat relieved that he'd see her again tomorrow.
