A/N:

Thanks again so much for all the votes. I have almost reached 500. It may not sound like a lot to some people, but to me it means that people actually like what I write, and I'm not just putting it out there with nobody reading it.

~Bella's P.O.V.~

'Ding!' I heard a noise from my laptop. Spinning my desk chair away from my bed, I pulled it up to my black desk. Sitting on the dark oak was my white MacBook. Pulling open the lid the screen woke up. On the screen showed my Skype. I had someone calling me. I clicked accept, knowing who it was.

My screen lit up with my favorite British boy, Liam. "Hey!" I said, a grin spreading off my face.

"Hey Bella!" Liam replied getting closer to the screen. Looking behind him I noted that he was sitting in a hotel room. "Wow, it's only been a week" Liam said looking shocked. "It's felt like months" he said. I giggled. It definitely only had been a week. I had been getting calls and texts from Liam every day, but it just didn't feel the same as seeing his face.

"So, how's it going?" I asked him as he leaned back in the chair that he was sitting in.

"Great! We had rehearsals for our show here in New York today, then we have a few interviews tomorrow. Some of them will be broadcasted on the British TV" he hinted me with a wink.

"I'll check my calendar" I teased him with a grin. I could not stop smiling!

"So... Bells, I was thinking about what you said about slowing down" I took a sharp breath in as Liam said this to me. "And, I think you were right. I was just moving a little fast.... I needed to get out all my feelings from my breakup." Wait a second...

"Are you saying that you are using me to get over Danielle?" I asked him, hurt in my chest.

"No!" Liam's eyes went wide "I just meant..... it's hard to explain. But, I like you Bella. I just.... agree that we need to slow it down" he aid not looking into the camera. Something was fishy here.

"Okay then..... So what else have you guys been doing?" I asked Liam with a broad reassuring smile, I still didn't feel so confident that everything was OK.

"Well, we went sightseeing around New York, and I hung out with some old friends that are also in New York right now, we went to New Jersey and did a show as well" he replied simply.

"That's awesome."

"Liam! Time to go to the interview" I head a British girl voice call in the background.

"I got to go! I'll text you later" Liam said. Before I could even say bye, the screen went pitch black. That was odd. Shrugging the thought off my shoulder, I stood up. Gripping my cold cup of lemonade, I walked across my plush carpet, and pulled open the door. I could hear Rebecca laughing in the den.

Padding across the wood floor, I walked into the room ,where Rebecca was laughing at something on her laptop while on the floor, and Emily sat on the couch.

"Bella, you might want to look at this" Emily said from the couch. Plopping down beside her I took a small sip of my lemonade.

"What's up?"

"You might want to look for yourself" she replied handing me her white laptop. I looked on the screen. It was a picture of Liam and Danielle walked down the street.

"So what, it's Liam and Danielle" I said not understanding her point.

"This was taken today" she said with a frown.
