I have no idea how long I’ve been asleep, all I know is I woke up to sun shining through the curtains and no Conor in bed. I turned round to the empty half of the bed and saw a note.

Just popped out for a little while. Will be back as soon as possible! Love you! Xx

Well that’s just great! Although, it does mean I can get a queen sized bed to myself! I stretch out across the whole bed, half of it warmer than the other and just lay there, thinking about things. Its so peaceful, just me and my thoughts and a huge room just for me for now!

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.

I roll my eyes and sit up, rubbing my eyes.

“Hello?” I say sleepily. A moment to myself is all I wanted!

“Ella? You got a minute?” It was Jack, and he didn’t sound happy! I jumped out of bed, put my feet into my warm beige slippers and toddled over to the door, opening it to reveal a very stressed and upset Jack.

“You alright?” I ask as he lets himself in and sits on a chair in the living room equivalent. The whole room was basically open planned, there was only a door to the bathroom and one to the bedroom, everything else was in the same room.

“Does it look like I’m alright?” He snapped.

“Alright! I was only asking!” I reply stroppily as I walk to the fridge. “Drink?”

“Alcoholic.” Jack replies as he stares out the windows to the beautiful view of the city below us.

“I don’t think that’s wise.” I say, caringly.

“I don’t care what you think!” I roll my eyes, grab a bottle of beer and throwing it at him. He catches it, although fumbles as he does so.

“Who put a bee in your bonnet?” I ask as I pour my orange juice and walk over to the chair next to him.

“Who do you think?”

“Me?” I say, no idea as to who he means.

“Yeah, that’s why I come here to get advice… Cos you’re the problem.” He huffs.

“Jack, you’re not helping anyone with this attitude! Christ!” I exclaim.

“Sorry… I’m just annoyed!” He says, making eye contact with me for the first time since he walked in.

“So, who’s done what?”

“My girlfriend.” The way he said ‘girlfriend’ sent a chill down my spine, there was hate behind that word.

“What’s she done?” I ask, caringly.

“What hasn’t she done?” he says, and I’m taken aback by this comment. I knew something was wrong yesterday when I tried to talk to him.

“Go on…” I say, feeling like a therapist.

“She used me for the fame, money, getting to Conor, she cheated on me, name-dropped and dumped me this morning.” I stare shocked at him for a second or two.

“Wow…” I said, just about. “What a bitch!”

“Tell me something I didn’t know!”

“Get her back then!” I suggest. “I wouldn’t deal with that shit!”

“And what am I meant to do? She could easily go to that stupid channel all you guys talk about!”

“Did Conor ever meet her?” I question.

“Nah. Never got the chance, we hadn’t been going out that long and she doesn’t like gigs and stuff.” He said.

“You got her number on your mobile?” I ask.
