... A week passed ...

*Ava's POV*

Lunch time and Danielle is rehearsing for her event and I'm currently with Eleanor.

"Let's go see Louis." I say and Eleanor nods. We stand at the side as we see them training.

"Ava!" Harry runs to me and flips his hair. "Hey." "How are you?" He asks me. "Uhm... Fine." I nod. "Good to hear." He answers. "Would you like to have something before you guys go? Eat?" Harry asks. "No, thanks." I say. "We still have classes. Maybe next time. We just dropped by to see Louis." I say.

"What time will you be going home?" Harry asks. "Late. About nine. A lot of work to do." I say. "We have to go now." I say and we ended the conversation with Harry.

It's almost nine in the evening and we're waiting for Louis to fetch us since he has the car with him. Me and Eleanor sat at a bench and talked nothing else but except for what I'm feeling now.

"What if you see him?" Eleanor asks me. "I don't know. I won't look at him. I'll just let him pass by and act as if nothing happened." I say. "Strangers again?" She asked. "Well, maybe." I sighed.

"Eleanor?" We hear a guy from our back and we looked at him.

"Harry. Hello." Eleanor greets him. "Hi, Ava." He smiles to me and I smiled back. "Finally! You smiled!" Eleanor says and we laugh. "Just for now." I say. "What are you guys doing here this late?" Harry asks us. "Waiting for Louis. How about you? Gonna hook up with some ladies tonight?" Eleanor asks him. "No, I'm not." Harry shakes his head. "Can I touch your hair?" I asked him. "Of course you can." He sits beside me and I started touching his hair.

"So fluffy." I shake it. I styled it too then I laughed with every style I did. "Hahaha! I could play with your hair everyday!" I say. "Only Harry's hair can make her smile." Eleanor says.

"Ava... Look." Eleanor's eyes point to a direction and I look at it. "What is he doing here?" She asks.

I saw Tom walking with his mates and my heart suddenly beats so fast.

"I didn't see anything." I say and continued twirling Harry's hair. "He's walking towards us!" Eleanor holds my arm and I do not pay attention to what she's saying. "Ava... Can we talk?"

Thomas Daley is standing in front of me asking me to talk to him.

"We have nothing to talk about." I say. "Ava." "Let's go. I'm sure Louis is in the parking lot." We stand and walked away from Tom.

"Ava, please, I am very sorry." He holds my arm. "Tom, let go of me. I have a lot of things to do." I say. "Can we just talk for a minute? The both of us? Please." He says. I stand in front of him but he doesn't release me my arm. "What you did is unforgiving to me. Okay? Understand? Good. Now let me go." I say. "Ava..." "Thomas! Let go!" I say.

"Louis' here." Eleanor says. "Let go or I'll call Louis." I say.

He looks straight to my eyes and let's go of my arm.

"Bye Harry." I look at him and walked fast to the car sat at the back. I sobbed badly in my hands.

"Ava..." Eleanor transfers from the front to the back and starts rubbing my shoulders and my back. "Louis' let's go home..." I say and he started driving.

As soon as we reached home, I stopped crying and went to my room.

"Ava?" Louis walked in my room where I'm already lying in my bed I turn to him and sat down.

"Did Tom talk to you?" He asks me. "He did." I answer. "But I didn't want to take it any longer. I don't wanna talk to him. I... I don't care about him anymore." I say. "You don't care but you cry too much." Louis says. "I don't even know why I'm crying." I say. "You have to talk to him." Louis rubs my back. "No. I should just stop myself from worrying a lot now. I'm the one who broke up with him. I do not have to think about it right? I have to focus on my thesis now and let go after graduation." I say.

"That's right. Don't let him disturb you. A few months before graduation, Ava." I smiled to her.

We then ended the conversation.

A month passed, I don't won't let anyone ruin my day now. I just want to have fun because in a few days, I'll be graduating now and I have to find a job after.

It's quite good to see that I'm already fine now, I thank Eleanor and Danielle a lot since they're the ones who helped me move on and forget Thomas. I still see Tom in the university training the new divers but I never walked close to the pool area anymore. I don't even want him to see me but I do admit that I've heard that he's flirting with someone now and I can't help myself from stalking who that is. I don't know what the girl's name is. But I just heard from the people in our university that Tom's flirting with a cheerleader. Really? But I have never knew the girl's name and what she's like. I guess I may not be the girl for him but whoever she is, she's one lucky girl.

Will I ever get over him that it has been a month that we haven't seen each other, I obviously didn't want to see him so I try to hide in every way I can.

But why can't I even forget him? Why can't I move on... Why am I getting jealous? Why...why did I?
