Kayla Pov-
Waking up, I groaned at the massive pain inside my head. It felt like someone was constantly stamping on it and screaming. Did I really drink that much? Geez.
Rubbing my head, I climbed out of my bed, not really wanting to and checked my phone for the time. I saw I had two new text messages and the time was 11'O'clock in the morning. So it wasn't too late, but I could have done with another few hours in bed to be honest...
I checked the first message and saw it was from 'The extremely sexy curly haired guy', who could that be? I thought to myself.
Hey Kayla! It was a great night last night..I may have saved my number into your phone (and if you didn't guess, it's Jay). We should go out again some time! See ya soon. x
I smiled at the message and decided and text back later, it was too early for that. SO I checked the next message to see it was from my mum. I sighed before opening the message, knowing it had to be something negative. It always was!
You were in today's newspaper with Nathan. I hope you're behaving and do not try anything, he loves me not you. Why else do you think your dad left? Because of you.
My tears dropped onto the cracked screen of my phone, the one I'd thrown against the wall yesterday. I dropped it onto the floor and dived back onto my bed and let the tears stain my pillow as I buried my head into it.
Could I never wake up happy here? Obviously not.
''Kayla?'' I heard Nathan's soft voice ask from outside the door awkwardly. ''You awake? I heard a bang.'' He added. I lift my head and wiped my eyes. ''I just dropped my phone.'' I mumbled, throwing my head back down onto the pillow. ''Can I come in?'' He then asked and I heard the door creak open.
''No.'' I tried to say but the pillow muffled my sound. I heard Nathan chuckling and then I was lifted slightly so that meant he'd sat on my bed.
''Are you gonna look at me?'' He then sighed and I sat up. I looked at him, hoping to God he didn't notice I'd been cryin-
''Whats wrong?!'' He questioned and I rolled my eyes. ''It doesn't matter.'' I shrugged and he took my hands. ''It does. Now tell me.'' He spoke softly and I literally wanted to melt. I looked over at my phone on the floor and then back at him, deep into his bright green orbs.
''I'm gonna go and get a shower.''
''No!'' Nathan shouted and I stood up, shocked. ''I mean, not until you tell me.'' He coughed awkwardly, thinking it would mend what he did. ''Do you love my mum?'' I asked him and he looked taken back. He was probably wondering why I'd asked. ''Because if you don't, why are you with her?'' I added.
''Well, we're in the early stages of our relationship so I don't know yet.'' He simply answered. ''If you come to realise you don't, don't do what Jake did. Just end it.'' I told him and he nodded. ''Where's this all coming from?''
''And what happened last night, it was a mistake.'' I added. ''It should have never happened, we were both drunk and that's it.'' I shrugged. ''If we were drunk, how come we both remember it?'' He smirked. ''Look.'' I pointed my finger into his chest as he joined me in standing up. ''Getting drunk doesn't necessarily mean you can't remember anything. It just means your actions are loosened.''
''Now I'm going for a shower.''

''Kaaayyylllaaaaa!'' Charlie sang as I answered the door. ''I've missed you!'' I exclaimed and she threw her arms around me in an over-dramatic hug. I laughed and hugged her back before she let go and closed the door behind her. ''How've you been?'' Her voice soon turned from cheery to concerned, and I loved that she cared, she was one of the only ones.
''I've been alright.'' I shrugged, but she could see straight through it. ''Now tell me the truth!'' SHe ordered and I don't know why but there and then I burst straight into tears. She was soon hugging me again, but softer and more comforting.
''Don't cry, Kayles.'' She soothed and I broke out of the hug. ''Lets watch a film.'' She suggested and I nodded.
We entered the living room and jumped onto the empty sofa. There was another but me and Charlie always shared one and sat opposite each other to talk. ''Do you love me?'' She asked and I raised my eyebrows at her, whereas she wore a smirk.
She pulled a tub of ice cream out of her bag and then two spoons and I grinned. ''Aren't I the greatest?'' She asked. ''You're the greatest!'' I agreed, taking the spoon she offered me. ''Now tell me what's happened.'' She nodded and I sighed.
''On Friday I came home upset after what Jake did and he comforted and made me feel so much better.'' I started with and she was nodding along with me. ''He offered going out with the other lads in the band to cheer me up and let me forget about it for a while. It was fun and it worked until I ran into Jake at the end of the night. He told me he'd slept with that girl after I'd refused to forgive him.'' My tears were falling rapidly and Charlie had her arms tightly around me as I cried into her shoulder.
''He's not worth your tears, Kayla.'' She soothed. ''You're so much better than he is and you can do so much better with someone who cares about you and loves you for you.'' She told me. ''Thats not it all.'' I sniffed, sitting up again and Charlie nodded for me to go on.
''Nathan brought me home and we had a coffee, we sobered up together. We'd become closer over that day. He asked me why I didn't get on with my mum so I explained it all to him. Like how I was a mistake and stuff but then I asked him not to leave her because I didn't want him to leave me alone again. I didn't mean to, Charlie!'' I wept into my hands. ''You didn't mean to what, Kayla?'' She urged.
I took a deep breath and looked at her. ''He told me he'd never leave me. He was so close to me, and he was so nice to me.''
''What happened, Kayla?'' Charlie questioned, becoming clearly impatient. ''We kissed!'' I exclaimed and Charlie gasped, covering her mouth with her hand. ''I pulled away and I ran upstairs! I promise you that nothing else happened!'' I added, hoping she'd understand. ''Do you think it happened out of, don;t take this the wrong way, but out of desperation or loneliness after what had happened with Jake?'' She asked.
''I-I don't know.'' I stuttered. ''Because when I'm with him, I'm happy, I get butterflies.'' I told her and she smiled. ''But he's with my mum.'' I sighed. ''She sent me a text this morning and that got to me.'' I grabbed my phone from next to me and unlocked it before showing Charlie the text.
She read it with concentration on her face before she frowned. ''Kayla, that's horrible!'' She announced. ''I was rude to him this morning because I was upset about it and I shouldn't have been.'' I sighed. ''I told him the kiss was a mistake and that it shouldn't have happened.'' I shrugged and Charlie raised her eyebrows.
''Was it just a mistake though?'' Her voice was calm but I just didn't know. ''Do you like him?'' She asked after a pause. Only the silence was broken by the front door slamming shut.

''I'll see you soon, Kayles.'' Charlie smiled as she walked down the steps. ''Ring me if you need me!'' She called and I waved her goodbye as she got into her mums car.
I walked back into the living room and saw all the boys messing around in there apart from Nathan. I shrugged it off and walked into the kitchen to make a cup of tea. And there he was.
''Kayla?'' He asked, his voice hesitant. It was almost as if he was shy, and not knowing whether I wanted to talk to him. ''Yeah?'' I replied, not looking up to make eye contact, not that I didn't want to. I'd love more than anything to look up into his amazing eyes and be held in his strong arms, but I couldn't do that.
''I heard you.'' He whispered.
''You heard me what?'' I asked, confused at what he was getting at.
''I heard your conversation with Charlie.''
