***Liam's POV***
I watch Carly storm out of the apartment. It is just Dylan and I. Dylan is shocked that she is acting this way, but if he only knew the real reason that Lucas won't tour with us. Dylan starts heading for the door. He leaves without a look back. I guess he's going to go find Carly, but I should be doing that. And so that's exactly what I'm going to do. I walk to the door and open it, but who is standing there has me motionless. "Hello Liam." I keep staring at Dani. Can't believe she's here; why is she here? I don't love her. I told her that back in London. Can't she get the hint? "Liam we need to talk." Without me inviting her in she walks around me. I sigh before closing the door. I have to find Carly, why am I even still here?
***Carly's POV***
I am sitting on a swing just looking at the empty playground. I used to come here all the time when I was a kid. This is where I met Abby and Lucas. They were friends way before I came along. Now they can't even be in the same room. Lucas doesn't want to come on tour because he knows everyone will find out that Abby is pregnant and he's the father. So what? They're going to find out sooner or later. I just don't want Lucas to run away from all this. Abby needs him, the band fucking needs him; but all he cares about is himself. I have to try to talk to him even though I know he won't listen. I get up out of the swing and brush myself off. I turn towards his house and that's when I see Louis standing there. How long has he been standing there? I shrug it off before walking up to him with a smile. "Hey Louis." "Hello love. What are you doing here?" "Just had to clear my head. I was just about to walk to Lucas' house." Louis nods. I watch him walk to a bench and sit down. I walk over and sit beside him. "So may I ask why you're here?" "Liam told me to find you and stall." Louis' head falls so he won't look at me. "Why do you have to stall me? What's going on Louis?" I am getting worried. "It's probably nothing." Louis tries to shake it off, but I'm not buying it. I stand. "Just tell me." "Danielle appeared at the apartment." Louis' voice is shaky. I can tell he doesn't trust her. "Why is she here?" "She said she needed to talk to him...Love I don't know what it could be, but I know Liam loves you. He wouldn't do anything to hurt you." Louis gives me a reassuring smile. "You said that the last time. Louis he crawled back to her before. How do you know he won't do it again?" I can feel the tears starting. Louis pulls on my hand to make me sit, but I pull my hand away. "Louis I'm sorry." I turn around and start walking away. "Carly wait!" Louis shouts. I turn back to face him tears clouding up my sight. "Louis I have to do what is best for me." "And what is that exactly?" "To forget all this." I hold my arms up to make a point. "I need to get away." "What about the wedding...the tour?" Louis is standing in front of me now. "The band will go on tour...without me. And as for the wedding..." I can't get the words off my tongue, maybe because I love Liam so much; but I don't want to be hurt anymore. I have to do this. "It's off." With that I leave Louis standing there in the park. The tears keep falling down my cheeks. I can't go back to the apartment so I just go to the one place I know that would take me in, in this state.

I walk up the sidewalk and knock on the door. Seconds later I come face to face with Abby. I just let everything out and can't stop myself from crying. "Carly?" Right away she pulls me in for a hug. "Can I stay here?" I say into her shoulder. Without an answer she walks me inside and shuts the door. She lets go, but I don't want her to. "Carls you look like shit." We both chuckle. Abby pull me up to her room and I sit on her bed. She is standing in front of me waiting for me to explain. I don't think I can without crying. It just hurts too much. "Abs she's back." "Who is?" "Danielle." That's all I have to say before Abby has me in her arms again and I am crying. Abby knows One Direction really well, so she knows everything about Danielle. That name makes me want to barf. Abby pulls away. "How long has this been going on?" "She appeared today at the apartment. Louis told me." I start crying. "Liam told him to stall me." Abby pulls me tighter. "Well, she's a bitch, but honey I know Liam loves you." I face her glaring. "You don't think he's cheating on me?" "I really don't know, but we can't just assume he is." Abby tries to comfort me, but I think it's just making it worse. "I told Louis that the wedding it off. I'm not going on the tour either." Abby let's go of me in shock. "Carls this is your dream. Don't give that up." "I want you to sing the songs. Abs you're the only one that knows the songs as good as me. Plus you helped me write most of them." I give her a small smile. She gets up and starts pacing. Is she panicking? I get up to stop her. "Abs please...do this for me." "Okay." She smiles and I bring her in for a hug. I might not end up marrying Liam, but at least my band will still go on tour with One Direction. I think it's going to work out.
***Liam's POV***
Dani and I had a very long conversation. She kept telling me she loved me and that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me. But all I kept thinking about was Carly. She's the one that I love and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I just hope she doesn't get too mad that Dani was here. I want to make sure Louis kept his promise. I call him up. Finally on the last ring he answers. "Wow I thought you weren't going to answer mate." I smile through the phone. Louis doesn't say anything. Why isn't he talking? He's never like this. "Louis is everything okay?" "No." "Did something happen to Carly?" Now I start worrying. "No." I am losing my patient with him. "Damnit Louis just tell me." "I told Carly about Dani coming here..." He went quiet. "And?" "Liam she started crying...I couldn't stop her." I can hear the disappointment in his voice. "Stop her from what?" "She's calling off the wedding." Those words cut me in a million pieces. She wasn't supposed to act like this. Dani and I really didn't even do anything. After she confessed her love to me I told her I love Carly and that's who my heart belongs to. Then she left. Carly doesn't know the whole story. "But she doesn't know anything." "Liam she's doing what's best for her. She's sick and tired of getting hurt by you." "I love her." I feel tears roll down my cheeks. I wipe them away. "I'm sorry Liam it's over." Louis hangs up without a goodbye. I drop my phone to the ground. I stare at the picture on my background. It's of Carly and I. We were in London and I was giving her a tour. She looks so happy, even I look happy. Now I just ruined it all. My mum is not going to like this.
