*Rachel's POV*

Liam drags Miley and I into the living room, closing the door behind him.

As I said before....

Great!

Just...great.

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourselves for the overprotectiveness (if that's even a word) that is my brother. I give you, the one, the only, Liam Payne.

"I'm sorry, but did I miss something?" Liam asks with a confused expression on his face. "Because, the last time I checked, we all hated Zack because he cheated on you!"

Well, that went better than I thought it would.

I honestly was expecting Liam to just yell, 'Why the hell is Zack here?!' But, maybe he'll actually let me explain myself after all.

Not.

"Erm..." I trail. "Well, last night Zack started texting me and he told me he moved back into town and that he was sorry for what he did."

Liam's expression softens. "What about Louis, Rach? Why'd you break up with him?"

My stare goes to the floor. "It's a long story."

Miley stands with her arms crossed, glaring at me.

"Miles, what do you think of all this?" I ask her with a confused expression.

"Since when do you care at all about what I think?!" She screams. "I Gave you a damn good piece of advice, and that was to not get back with that lying and cheating bastard! It's unbelievable that you went a did the polar opposite of what I told you to."

By now I can feel the pools of tears in my eyes. God, she's right! Why couldn't I have just listened? Why do I act like such a drama queen about these kinds of things? I've got to stop with all the crying!

"Miley, I'm sorry. It's just that... everyone serves a second chance."

My redhead friend's face softens a bit. "Fine." She states. "But, I do not support this relationship. I know the fans that didn't hate you before definitely will now for breaking Louis Tomlinson's heart."

Her last few words sting. A lot. The angered girl stomps out of the room angrily, not giving me a second glance.

Liam gives me a reassuring smile. "I trust you to make the right decison, in the end." With that, my wise brother quietly walks out of the room, as well.

I can hear them talking in hushed voices in the kitchen, though I can't really make out what they're saying. There is one sentence that I catch before I hear the door open and close, signaling that somebody left the house.

"Zack, I think you'd better leave."

Don't know who suggested this, but what I do know is that now, I feel more alone than ever.

Staring up at the ceiling is not fun.

I want to do something else, but it's 3 am and I'm afraid of waking everyone up.

So here I am

What to do tomorrow? Oh, wait, today.

I could ask the guys if they want to go to an amusement park! I'm sure that'd definitely ligthen up the mood after the whole 'Zack' thing. We'd all enjoy a day away just for fun! Except maybe for Zayn. I've heard that he's afraid of heights. That should turn out interestingly. Oh, who am I kidding? Am I seriously trying to distract myself from what's really going on? Thing are screwed up with Lou so badly, I don't even know what to do anymore!
