Louis’ POV

I was in the middle of some english homework, when my phone started ringing. I looked at the screen. It was Jasmine. I picked it up. 

“Hi,” I said down the phone.

“Hi. I need you to come over like now! Niall and I have an idea and we need you here!” she said, sounding very excited.

“I’m really sorry Jas, but I’ve got stuff to do-” I tried.

“NOW!” she almost screamed!

“Ok! Ok! I’m on my way!” I said and put down the phone, laughing to myself as I threw on a hoodie and headed down the road to Jasmine’s. When I arrived, Jasmine alomst jumped on my, giving me a massive bear hug and said, “Thank you so much for coming!”

“Anything for my Jasmine,” I smiled as I walked in. I saw Niall sitting on the sofa with a guitar. 

“Is that yours?” I asked him, interested.

“No. It’s Jas’s,” he said, taking me by suprise.

“Jas! you never told you played the guitar!”

“Well, only a little bit. I’m not very good,” she said modestly. 

“She’s great! And she writes amazing songs too!” Niall piped up.

“Wow! So what was your idea?” I asked eagerly.

“Well,” said Jasmine, “Niall told me you liked to sing, and so does he. Niall also plays the guitar. And I write songs. We thought we could all make a band! You and Niall could sing, Niall could play the guitar and I could write the songs!” explained Jasmine, almost bursting with excitement.

“Sounds great. Have we got a name?” I asked.

“Niall and the Potatoes!” said Niall with a massive grin on his face. 

“Cool! We should write our first song soon! I said.

“Oh! But my songwriting pad is full. I need a new one.” said Jasmine looking slightly sad.

“Let’s all go in to town and buy you a new one then!” said Niall with his usual positive attitude.

Jasmine’s POV

We all headed out, all wearing hoodies to keep us warm. We got to town after about a 15 minute walk and found WHSmiths. Just as we were about to walk in, I spotted something I would never have imagined I would ever see in my life. It was Ivy... and Jake... kissing passionately. I nudged Niall, still in shock. He turned around and I could see the hurt on his face. 

“Ivy! I thought you were better than that! We’re through!” he shouted as loud as he could, making sure Ivy could hear him. Ivy and Jake broke away. Ivy had obviously heard what Niall had said because she looked like a naughty child who had just been told off by their teacher.

“Yeah Ivy. I thought yo were better too. Don’t ever speak to me again!” I shouted at her and turned to walk in to the shop, followed by Niall who was in tears. Louis, who was already in the shop and had missed the drama, saw Niall and me and asked what had happened.

“Ivy and Jake,” I said through gritted teeth. I truly hated Ivy right now. And Jake. Jake might lie to Ivy about me, tell her that I was horrible to him and that I deserved what he did to me. 

“What about them?” asked Louis looking confused.

“They are together,” said Niall through the tears that were streaming down his face. “Once we’ve bought this notebook, Jasmine, we finish writing that song, Tell Me A Lie, together,” said Niall.

“Deal,” I said as we browsed the shop looking for a nice little notebook. I finally found a nice, sophisticated black one that suited me perfectly, and I took it to the till. After I’d bought it, I got out my phone and deleted Ivy’s number. Niall did the same. As we got home, Louis went to finish his homework and Niall and I started on our song. We decided it would be from Niall’s point of view, but include some of my experiences too. After about an hour we had the first verse and the chorus:

Can’t ever get it right

No matter how hard I try

And I try

Well I put up a good fight

But your words cut like knives

And I’m tired

As you break my heart again this time

Tell me I'm a screwed up mess

That I never listen, listen

Tell me you don’t want my kiss

That you need you’re distance, distance

Tell me anything but don’t you say he’s what you're missing, baby

If he’s the reason that you’re leaving me tonight

Spare me what you’re thinking

Tell me a lie

We were quite proud of that and we decided to leave it for the day. We agreed to meet up again after school tomorrow to finish it. I said goodbye to him and I went to run a bath. It was what I needed after all this drama. It still puzzled me why Ivy picked Jake over Niall and me. After all he did to me. I thought this through as I got in to the bath.

After about 15 minutes, I slowly felt myself drift off to sleep. I knew sleeping in the bath wasn’t a good idea but I couldn’t stop myself as I slowly drifted away in to the land of dreams.
