Okay so can I just rewind to last night for a moment. So my mum came in, shouted at me for dating George again, had a break down, told me that someone had been sending her mean messages, told me someone would get hurt if George and I didn't break up, George and I broke up and now we are just friends. Wow that's a mouthful. I don't think it's sunk in yet. Like why am I letting this random person, for all I know could be having a joke, tell me who I can date. I mean last night was just all over the place so I just went with it but now laying here thinking back what was I thinking? How do I know my mum wasn't making it up? I didn't even ask for proof.

At the same time I don't want to risk my mum getting hurt so I'm just going to play along until I sort this out and I swear I will find out who this person is (if there even is a person).

I lifted myself out of bed, running my hands through my messy hair as I sat up. I tied my hair into a messy pony tail and strolled into the living room. Over thinking isn't good for you apparently so I am just going to sit here and do nothing...

Urgh no I have to do something! I'll ring Maddie.

"Hello?" She answered in her usual morning groany voice.

I laid across the sofa, "You're never going to believe what happened last night..."

"Wait, so you and George are just friends now?" Maddie gasped, paying the lady in the coffee shop walking over to the table to sit down. I had explained to her everything that had happened last night and I could tell she was just as shocked as I were.

"Yup." I rolled my eyes.

"After all that we went through?" She slouched in her chair and folded her arms, "Well that was a waste of time."

I sighed at the fact she was right, I should have just never gotten back together with him in the first place and just continued on training to be a teacher, but now I have all this on my plate I am so behind on all the work.

"Are we still going to their concert tomorrow night?" Maddie sat back up and sipped her coffee.

"Yes!" I said with a hint of annoyance. George asked me that last night too, like seriously I'm not going to avoid him. If we have to be friends until I sort this then that's fine, it doesn't mean I will never talk to him again because of course that went well last time.

"Okay don't take it out on me!" Maddie laughed, although I didn't laugh. I was moody ok. Of course I am.

"I just hate everything." I whined, banging my head on the table. I could hear Maddie giggling as she watched me.

This will not be awkward Diana. This will not be awkward. Just knock on that dressing room door and relax. George is still your friend Diana.

I took a deep breath in and then out again before finally plucking up the courage to knock on George's dressing room door before the concert started in twenty minutes. I don't know why I'm stressing.

"Hey!" He smiled as he opened the door and saw me standing there, "Did you want something?"

Urgh I hate that question so much. Did I want something? NO! I just came to see you is that such a crime? Am I only allowed to see him now when I need something? Wow. Okay.

"No." I said, leaving us with an awkward silence as our eyes flickered around the surroundings.

"Did you want to come in?" He finally asked. Finally.

"Thought you'd never ask..." I laughed, following him inside his room.

This dressing room was pretty cool if I do say so myself, it's definitaly one of the perks of being famous: getting dressing rooms like this. It ruined it that he had messily thrown clothes around the floor and on the sofas and back of chairs. I realised I was just staring around the room and he was just staring at me staring at the room. Oh how I love awkward situations.

"So, you nervous?" I asked him trying to create conversation. I sat on one of the sofas in the room.

"A bit but it's normal I guess." He shrugged, sitting beside me. My heart started to race as I noticed there wasn't a lot of space between us.

"Oh er cool." I stuttered, then realising what I just said really didn't make sense responding to what he had just said. I am making such a fool of myself right now.

"How is it cool?" He laughed.

I love his laugh.

So

Friggen

Much.

"Oh you know..." I laughed for no utter reason, "Because it erm...you know erm...yeah."

George started to laugh, although I could feel myself burning bright red. This was so embarrassing I am making such a fool of myself. It feels awkward too, almost as if we don't know eachother. I hated the feeling of this.

"You look like a tomato." He continued to chuckle, I've probably gone an even deeper red by the time he had said this, oh god help me.

"Don't you have a concert to do?" I quickly stood up changing the subject. I faced the wall so he couldn't see my face and tried to fan myself. I could sense someone stood behind me, making my heart pound faster and faster by the second. I was worried to spin around because I didn't want to feel the akwardness of us being close together but I turned anyway.

He was stood inches apart, his dark eyes glimmering which I was a sucker for. I knew being friends wasn't going to work but until I get the story straight I'm not changing my mum's safety.

"Erm..." I breathed heavily as I saw his lips getting closer to mine, I could resist but lean foward too. I can't. Once I kiss him I won't want to leave. I put my hands out onto his chest to stop us. "Friends don't really do this." I breathed heavily follow by nervously laughing, I changed diretion and briskily walked for the door.

"Sorry." He said.

"Don't worry about it." I smiled, opening the door, "Good luck pal."

After I realised I just called him 'pal which was so cringey', I slammed the door and ran to the arena to take my seat. We had pretty good seats, maybe the best in the whole place. We got to sit up in the box where celebrities would usually sit which I'm not going to lie, it was pretty amazing. The boys' family and friends were up here with us too.

"Are you George's girlfriend?" A little boy came up to me, which I'm pretty sure was George's little brother. He was so adorable.

"Erm no." I laughed, "We're just friends."

"When I went on his phone this morning I saw him texting his friend saying-"

"Sorry about him." A lady came and grabbed him interrupting him from what he was about to say, she must be his mum...which means she's George's mum too. This is awkward. "I've heard lots about you, Diana right?" She held her hand out, I instantly shook it and smiled.

"Yeah, it's nice to finally meet you." I politely said. I heard Maddie laughing behind me at how polite I was being and talking, I elbowed her to shut up because I would go bright red and that's not good for first impressions. I mean yes this was akward but I didn't want to show that.

"I'm glad he finally has a girlfriend who-"

"Oh we're not dating." I interrupted her before she could go on any further and make me feel even worse about the whole situation. I was still curious about what George's brother was going to say before his mum interrupted him. Urgh.

"Oh." Was all she said leaving us another awkward silence, "Well enjoy the show then..."

I smiled at her as she walked to the other side of the box.

"Awkward..." Maddie sung as the lights went down and the concert began.
