Its been 5 days since I last saw liv. God I miss her, it's Saturday today I hope she meets me. I left around a hundred more messages since the last time we talked. I put on a clean t-shirt and trousers and made my way to the Dayglow cafe.

I was supposed to meet her at 11 am but I was there a hour early. I could risk making her wait, also I was way too eager to meet her and make amends, I was dying to win her back.

I sat on our booth, yeah we had a booth. Liv loved thát because she said it was perfectly placed- away from door and counter to avoid the noises but had a direct view of the entrance.

I ordered a coffee and a bagel and put on headphones on. I worked on my words which I wanted to say to Liv, I didn't want to mess it again in any way possible. I was listening to Harry and he somehow knew the exacts words as always.

And the coffee's out
At the Beachwood Cafe
And it kills me 'cause I know we've run out of things we can say
What am I now? What am I now?
What if I'm someone I don't want around?
I'm falling again, I'm falling again, I'm falling

About a hour and half later, a girl walked to the booth my face lit up and I looked up but my happiness was short spanned she wasn't Liv she was Katie, I let out a sigh to which she said, "hey, that's rude I ain't sigh worthy" grinned and sat besi...

About a hour and half later, a girl walked to the booth my face lit up and I looked up but my happiness was short spanned she wasn't Liv she was Katie, I let out a sigh to which she said, "hey, that's rude I ain't sigh worthy" grinned and sat beside me.

Katie was Ronny's sister, the thought of his name made me furious but that wasn't a reason to mistreat her sister. The only thing my mother never tolerated was mistreating a lady and I respected that.

Katie was the well known 'bitch' in high school but somehow she was always nice to me. We got along quite well.

Liv didn't like her, she used to say that Katie is two faced just like her brother maybe its in their blood. That was the difference between me and Liv, she had strong opinions about people and things whereas I accepted people for them. Maybe I am a people pleaser.

I shook my head at that thought.

I didn't notice when Katie ordered two drinks but here they were in front of me now. Katie looked at me smirked and took out small bottles of liquor from her denim and poured them empty in both glasses.

It was normal for her she was the risk taker, and never gave a second thought to things, it scared me but at the same time fascinated me.

I spent around 20 minutes talking about Liv to Katie and we were definitely drunk by then because I was singing aloud the one direction song

Please believe me, don't you see
The things you mean to me?
Oh, I love you, I love you llove, Ilove, I love Olivia
Ilive for you, I long for you, Olivia

I didn't realise when Katie changed the song. Now it was playing ONE KISS and I smiled remembering how Liv used to scream 'ITS NOT LOVE BABYGIRL ITS LUST' to the lyrics,

One kiss is all it takes
Falling in love with me
Possibilities, I look like all you need

The next moment I was brought back from my thoughts by Katie's lips kissing me hard. Fuck she was kissing. Why am I kissing her back.

No no no no. I shouldn't.

Why am I not stopping then. I opened my eyes at the sound of footsteps, it was Liv. She came for me, Liv was here.

No. She saw me kissing Katie.

By the time I got my thoughts together and ran out of the door. Liv was already at the end of the street calling a cab.

No.
What have I done?
How can I ?
Fuck
Fuck
Fuck

I ran towards her she was crying her eyes out. She wouldn't look at me. No. I broke my girl. I can't take this. I started blabbering about how sorry I am, I was talking really fast. I think I was having a panic attack.

And she was gone.

My vision began blurry I broke down on the street with my head in my hands.
