Second Chance

Little White Lies

The next morning I found myself looking through all the same articles again. I decided to go out of the articles and texted Sofia 

Sofia  ❤ 

SOS 

I'm on my way 

----------------------------------♡------------------------------

There is the loudest knock on the door. I opened the door and let Sofia in. She greeted my parents and my brother before going into my room and sitting on the bed.

"Qual è l'emergenza?" 

(What's the emergency?)

I handed her my phone to show her all of the articles that that had been looking at last night and this morning. 

"Oh, wow" 

"Yeah" 

"Clara ti ucciderà"

(Clara is going to kill you)

I looked up at her with an expression of anger and irritation which she could clearly see on my face. 

"Sorry" 

"It's- " 

I was interrupted by my bedroom door being open. I tilted my head forward to see Luca walking into my room. 

"Tu e Oscar state uscendo di nuovo insieme?"

(Are you and Oscar dating again?)

I groaned before plopping my body onto the bed facing the ceiling 

"Lo prenderò come un no"

(I'll take that as a no)

"Thank you" you say I a mumbled soft tone

I was trying to grasp the concept of how drama just kept following me everywhere when my doorbell. I lifted my head up to look at Luca. 

"I'll get that"

Luca left my room to go and answer the door. I finally got up from the bed and began pacing around to figure out how I was going to explain this to Clara agter she told me to lay low. My thoughts were interrupted by Luca coming back to my room with a look of panic which I didn't think was actually possible. 

"Oscar è qui"

(Oscar's here)

I looked at him like I didn't actually hear what he had said. It was like my ears behind to block everything that he had just said. Like it was muffled sound that was coming out of his mouth. I finally came back to reality and answered him

"Uh... I'm coming" 

Luca and Sofia walked out of the room. I took a deep breath and began walking out of my room when my phone rang. I turned it around to see who was calling me when I saw Clara's name on my phone. I chose to ignore her call which I knoew would later bite me in the ass but I just couldn't deal with her yelling at me right now.

------------------------------♡-----------------------------

We went out to the garden to talk to avoid being a part of more articles. We walked near the the flower bed that was filled with a bunch of sunflowers. 

"Why are you here so early?" 

" I was warned about the articles that came out. Just wanted to check on you" 

I smiled at him before we just kept talking. It was weird that we could talk like this, like we were childhood friends who had seen each other after years, like people in movies who were so excited to see the love of their life even though they had seen them the day before, like nothing had happened between us. It made me feel like maybe something could happen between us again. But I don't know if I'm really going to trust fate to handle that again because I can't go through the same heartbreak twice.

------------------------------♡-----------------------

Oscar had left the house when I got a text from Clara. She told me to come to the the recording studio asap. I asked for my brothers keys and left to go to the studio. After driving for fifteen minutes I finally got to the studio. I got out and locked the car before going into the building and walking upstairs and into the studio where i found Clara. I sat down then greeted her to which she greeted me back. We began to talk about all the articles that came out.

"So you're booked for a interview with Elle" 

"Why?"

She looked at me like I just asked her a stupid question even though I kinda knoew the answer.

"Really"

"When is it?" 

"Tomorrow"

You guys continue to talk about how the interview was going to work then talked about a few other things that were meant to happen once your break was done which included a show and being back in the studio night and day to record music. After that you left the studio and went back to your parents house to pick your stuff up.

----------------------------♡-----------------------------

I woke up, took a shower and got dressed. I put  a red top on with a leather skirt and knee high black boots and paired it with a black leather Blazer. I put on make up and clear lip gloss on then left the house with a black handbag. I arrived and went into the Elle building where i was told what type of interview I was doing and how it was going to work. I was meant to do an Elle #AskAnything interview. As she was told the camera was on, she began interviewing me.

"What have you been doing since your break?" 

" I saw my family a few times which I haven't been able to see a lot since touring and I've also been traveling" 

"Yes, I've seen that you've been in Bahrain and Australia recently" 

"I have" 

I knew where this was going. I knew that she was about to ask me about Oscar and how long we've dating. I just had to figure how I was going to answer the question and the answer I came to is that we weren't dating which was actually true.

"And you've been seen supporting Oscar quite a lot" 

I smiled knowing what was coming next 

"Mhm"

"The question on everybody's mind is if you're back together?" 

"No we're not" 

"Ah I see. So why were you there?"

"Uh to support him" 

I smiled  it off about how uncomfortable I felt while the interviewer asked asked the questions about Oscar. The interviewer finally leaves the issue alone and continues to ask other questions. 

-------------------------------♡--------------------

I finally finished the interview and left the building as fast as I could. I could finally relax after feeling like I had been carrying an anvil during the entire interview. I got into the car and tool a breath before driving home.
