His Bandmate

Chapter 10

Mia's P.O.V
I was in class right now taking a quiz. It's been two days since I've had any contact with Louis, or any of the boys.

I decided I need to separate myself from Louis and the boys. I can't handle getting hurt again. I filled Maddie in on everything, and she thought I was stupid from distancing myself from the boys. Niall, Harry, and Liam have tried texting or calling me but I just don't answer. I haven't heard from Louis at all which makes me even more mad. He could at least try to get ahold of me and explain why he left.

I went up to the the professor to turn in my quiz, and he said I was free to leave. I picked up my bag and started making my way to my apartment.

When I arrived at home, I saw I had 3 unread messages. I checked them and saw Niall and Sophie had texted me.

Niall: Hey Mia, I don't know why you're not texting me or any of the boys back. Will you please talk to me, I'm starting to get worried about you. I know you're seeing these text.

Niall: Can you please text me back..

I felt bad after reading his text, but I just can't allow myself to let my heart get broken again.

I then checked the messages from Sophie.

Sophie: Hey Mia, I'm with the boys right. Can you please text one of us back? If you need anything call me.

I thought about it and I know I'm supposed to be distancing myself from them, but Sophie knew Louis, and I needed someone to talk to.

Me: Will you come over?

Almost instantly I got a reply.

Sophie: Yea of course! I'll have Liam take me, since he knows where you live.

I sat down and waited for Sophie to get here. I saw a car pull up, but no one got out. I felt my phone vibrate so I checked it.

Sophie: Can Liam come in?

I sighed, I liked Liam he was a sweet guy, but he was also Louis best friend. But then again he already knew about me liking Louis.

Me: Sure, but only Liam.

I then heard the car doors shut and a knock on my door. I went up to the door and opened it, only to be embraced in a hug by Sophie.

"Oh my god! We've been so worried about you." Sophie said. Hearing her words just made me want to cry on the spot. She pulled away and walked in followed by Liam.

"Hey love," he said pulling me in a hug.

We walked over to my couch and all sat down.

"So why haven't you replied to any of us?" Sophie asked.

I sighed,"whatever is said in this room, can't leave this room." I told both of them. They nodded and waited for me to continue.

"Well on Christmas Louis showed up at my apartment, and said he didn't want me to be alone on Christmas. So we spent the day together. Well Louis and I ended up kissing that night, and he was being really caring. Well he ended up staying the night with me, but when I woke up he was gone. The only thing he left was a not that said had to go. He hasn't tried to contact me or anything since."

Sophie frowned," well why haven't you been talking to any of us though?"

"I wanted to distance myself from Louis. I know that sounds stupid, but you don't realize how many times this has happened to me. A boy acts like he cares about you, then he's gone just like that. That's part of the reason I moved here. I can't go through another heart break again." I said tears starting to fill up in my eyes. I quickly blinked them away and kept my head down.

"I will admit that was wrong of him on so many levels to just leave, and to not try to get ahold of you. But you can't just ignore us to stay away from him. Niall's at Harry's apartment, and he's honestly worried sick about you. Harry is to, and weather you believe it or not Louis is too." Sophie said.

"I know you don't want to get your heartbroken, but neither does Louis. Just remember he's been through some tough things in the past." Liam said. I wondered what he meant about that, but I decided to ignore it for now.

"Why don't you come back with us to Harry's house. Niall's really worried about you, and when we said that we were coming here I think he thought it was something he did." Sophie said. I instantly felt bad for not texting Niall back.

"But what about Louis?" I asked her.

"You don't have to talk to him. But you can't stay mad at him forever." She said.

"Ok I guess I'll come over." I said sighing. We all got up, and I slipped on my sandals before we left.

"What am I supposed to tell Niall, when he ask why I wasn't replying to him." I asked them.

"Uhh just say you had some family issues or something." Liam said. I nodded my head and waited for us to arrive at Harry's. When we arrived we walked up to the door and knocked. I started getting nervous, and Sophie gave me a reassuring smile.

Niall opened the door right away,"was she okay!?" He asked. He then spotted me and his cheeks turned red. Sophie and Liam walked ahead of us, probably giving us time to talk.

"Hi," he said. You could instantly tell he was nervous which made me feel bad. I should have texted him back, it's not his fault for Louis actions.

I quickly put my arms around his neck and pulled him in for a hug. He was shocked at first but wrapped his arms around me and held me in a hug.

"I'm sorry I haven't texted you back." I told him. He pulled back and looked in my eyes.

"Why haven't you? Did I do something to make you mad?" He asked.

"No, you didn't do anything. I've just had some things going on lately, I should have talked to you." I said.

"Well I'm here if you need someone to talk to." He said.

"Thanks," I said smiling at him. I took of my shoes next to the door, and followed him into the living room. Before we walked in I saw the side of Louis face and quickly looked down.

"Mia!" I heard Harry yell. I looked up and saw him running towards me, I smiled and he grabbed me twirling me around making me laugh.

"I missed you!" He said.

"I missed you to!" I said as he put me down. I could see Louis staring at me from the corner of my eye but I ignored it. I went and sat down next to Niall, on the couch.

The rest of the boys were already on the subject of something else, so I just sat there and listened.

"Mia when is your birthday?" Harry asked me.

"March 22." I replied. Harry just nodded his head. For some reason we were talking about birthdays. My phone started ringing, and I noticed it was my mom. She didn't call me often so I got up and went to the kitchen to answer the call.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hi Mia. Do you think you could do me a favor?" She asked. I sighed it's been three months since she's called me, and she doesn't even ask how I am.

"Depends what is it?" I asked her.

"Do you think you could send me some money?" She asked. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not sure, I have to pay for college and rent. I'll let you know for sure later." I replied.

"Ok." She said then hung up. I sighed then turned around walking back to the boys. When I turned around Louis was standing there. I jumped, and then put my head down going to walk out the door. He grabbed my arm before I could walk out.

"Can we please talk?" He asked. I looked up and noticed he had bags underneath his eyes, from lack of sleep.

"Can we wait till nobody else is around?" I asked. He nodded his head and let my arm go. I sighed knowing I had got out of it that time.
