i woke up the following morning, ethan had left to go to a more sidemen shoot at simon and jj's leaving me at his, with wasn't weird for me because he would always let me go to his if i needed to be alone, even if he was out. i opened my eyes, reaching out of my phone on charge, pulling the charger out. scrolling through facebook, i found myself on a sidemen fan group, scanning through some recent posts.

one in particular caught my attention, scanned it a couple of times before furrowing my brows, 'im so confused, has anyone looked at floras tags on instagram.' i felt my heart drop, all my tags are are fan appreciation posts, right?

soon i found myself looking in my notifications,

from: lux
you okay, you seen insta?

from: cal
oi look at your tagged on insta

from: evie
why you at ethans? you ok?

i very quickly ran to my tags on instagram, scanning them, seeing nothing abnormal. i brought my eyes through them again, clicking on a post with writing, reading it, 'i'm not going to confirm or start anything, but my sister was coming back from her boyfriends late last night, she saw @behzinga and @florahart walking into ethans block which i only live ten minutes from.' i screenshotted the post almost immediately and sent it to ethan, certain he would have seen it.

from: ethan

i did what ethan said knowing he has been in the public eye, way long then me and has had situations like this multiple times. i let my fingers dance on my screen, 'bullshit, i walked ethan back from harry and cals yesterday, as he took me home from jj and si's last week. fucking shit rumour.' i nodded my head reading it over before posting in and throwing my head back, the pillow catching it.

i sat beside harry in jj and si's after shooting, playing with the ring on my finger, staring at the floor, daydreaming. "you seen this?" harry mumbled to me, showing my flora's story. i ran my eyes through it reading every last word before nodding and turning my attention back to the floor, "you alright?" harry nudged me offering me a crisp.

"yep." i weakly smiled at boy beside me, taking a few crisps in my hand.

"greedy." harry laughed before changing the subject back, "you sure, flor still at yours?"

i shrugged, "she was there when i left, don't know now though."

"fair enough." harry's attention turned back to everyone else.

i pulled my jeans by the belt loops, fixing them while walking through the streets of london towards my flat.

car, buses and people filled the streets of the busy town. i clutched my bag close as i approached my flat. i got buzzed in pretty quickly and walked upstairs to my shared flat.

walking in the door, i was faced by two slouched figures, looking up at me. evie stood up and pulled my into a caring hug, "you okay?" she smiled, i nodded before my eyes met alisa.

"you alright?" i looked at her with wide eyes, pulling my bag on the kitchen counter. "fuck sake, come here." i said opening my arms as she walked out, throwing them over her shoulder giggling contagiously.

the three of us stood around chatting shit for a while before alisa went down the get the mail and me and evie separated into our rooms.

i decided to stream a chatty twitch, whilst everyone else was occupied.

"ello, ello, ello." i giggled walking into frame after my count down had finished.

"how's everyone?" i groaned, "just short one today, racking them clips you know." i giggled.

after about an hour i heard my door open, i looked over at the door as alisa walked in, "what's up?" i smiled at the door.

"si and jide are here, also that's urs." she threw me a huge shein parcel and placed some letters on my bed.

i furrowed my brows at the letters, "who are those from?"

she shrugged, "want me to check?"

"nah, leave it i'm ending this now anyways." i abruptly ending the stream, getting up at walking over to my bed, parcel in hand. "i'll come out in five." i nodded as she walked out.

i unpacked my order, placing everything against my body seeing if it will fit nicely before putting in my wardrobe or dresser. then i opened my letters just bills from the bank, brands that i have worked with in the pasts letters and other junk mail.

after i put my mail away, i made my way to the living room where i from alisa, evie, jide and simon all chatting nonsense. when i walked in jide stood up, "hello!" he basically screaming.

"don't know how i didn't know you were hear you're a ear rape." i giggled, hugging him.

"how's you been?" simon pulled me in his embrace.

"stressed cos you this one." i wiggled my index finger at alisa, giggling.

"we've heard." jj laughed at an extreme volume, making me put my hands to my ears.

"if you gonna laugh like that, get up and out." i pointed at door, giggling.

jj continuously chuckled in my ear. "i have a ear ache now." i threw myself back.
