Hey guys!

I missed you!

-----------------------

Sophie's POV :-

"Ok. I will! Don't worry--"

"Who are you talking to?"

"No one, Cass."

"Ok. You go on, now. I'll call you later. Bye!"

"Bye." I was talking to Miss White; Cassidy's mom.

"You were talking to no one, eh?" She turned to me.

"Yeah."

"Good. You're going crazy." She pulled herself up onto the kitchen's counter.

"Yeah, I'm the one going crazy." I rolled my eyes.

She snorted, "I miss your family. Where are they?"

I froze.

"Soph? Sophie." She hopped off and walked over to me, "They're not on holiday, are they?"

I shook my head. I could feel my self shaking slightly.

"Can you tell me what happened?" Her voice was more soft and concerned.

"They left me." And that was all I needed to say before I broke down.

"Aw, Soph." She hugged me as I sobbed into her shoulder.

"I don't get it! What did I do wrong?"

Liam's POV :-

"I don't get it! What did I do wrong?"

I've been listening to the whole conversation. To be honest, I feel a tad guilty.

I twist the door nob and step in.

Cassidy looks up at me and gives me a sad smile. I nod and kneel down to Sophie's eye level, but she only clutches harder onto her friend.

"You okay, love?" I take her hand in mine.

She shakes her head and lets out a sob.

"Soph? I gotta use the bathroom." Cassidy squirmed out of Sophie's grip. On her way out, she winked at me and I shook my head at her. It can't happen now.

"Can you tell me what happened, babe?" She sniffled and curls herself into my lap.

"D-don't tell anyone, Li-Liam." She looks up at me with teary eyes as I wrapped my arms around her.

"I won't." I promised.

"Look, I am gonna cry. A lot. 'S that okay?"

"Yeah, no problem."

------------------------------

She told me everything. From the day she heard about us, til the day her parents left her. Crazy story, really.

"Please, don't hate me!" She sobbed, "You're my everything!"

"I don't hate you! I lo-"

"Don't say it." She looked up at me with large green eyes, "They always said it."

"I'm sorry."

"You probably don't even mean it! We just met like a week ago!"

"I'm sorry, okay?" I sighed loudly, "I'm sorry.."

"Li, I didn't mean to upset you. Babe, look at me."

I looked back at her, I'm not upset because of you, I'm upset because of me!"
