Me, Cher and One Direction // n.h

Chapter Fifteen: Heartache, Heartbreak.

"You're telling me!" Cher said, glancing bitterly at Louis. 

"What did you do?" I asked, baffled. 

"He slept with Katie Waissel!" 

And it was like a bomb had been dropped. Silence filled the room, only noises were intakes of breaths and gasps. I stared at him for a good twenty seconds and guilt filled his eyes. Three. Two. One. Explosion.

"You didnt!" I asked Louis in disbelief. 

"Well...I did, but it meant nothing. It was a mistake!" He pleaded.

"Whatever," Cher whispered.She walked away. "We're over too."

She slipped around the corner. Louis stumbled towards her, yelling out,

"It was a mistake, Cher! Cher, it was a mistake! Please don't go, please!"

I glanced at the me and Liam pictures and let out a sob. Stupid! Stupid Niall! Stupid Liam! I balled up the photo and hurled it at a passing person. Cheryl turned around, beaming at me. She didn't even feel the photo. Oh no, I can't deal with Cheryl now.

I walked slowly upstairs and was about to go to the first person I thought of for comfort besides Cher, Niall or Louis - Liam, when I reminded myself this was why I was in this mess. Ugh...Liam and I were friends! Just friends. I went to the gym and sat down on a mat. No one else was in here. I saw Rebecca's iTouch lying on the shelf, and pressed Shuffle.

I'm With You by Avril Lavigne. Typical. Becca has about all her songs. She says they're always right for the moment. Me, Adele or Taylor Swift always matches the moment, but Avril is fine.

Before I knew it, my voice was singing along, like it was a natural thing to do.

"I'm standing on a bridge, 

I'm waiting in the dark, 

I thought that you'd be here by now. 

There's nothing but the rain. 

No footsteps on the ground, 

I'm listening but there's no sound.

Isn't anyone trying to find me? 

Won't someone come take me home?

It's a damn cold night! 

Trying to figure out this life. 

Won't you take me by the hand, 

Take me somewhere new. 

I don't know who you are, but I, 

I'm with you! 

I'm with you - ou - ou!

I'm looking for a place, 

I'm searching for a face, 

Is anybody here I know? 

Cause nothings going right, 

And everything's a mess, 

And no one likes to be alone. 

Isn't anyone trying to find me? 

Won't somebody come take me home?

It's a damn cold night!  

Trying to figure out this life!
