[Hey guys! Is everyone liking the story so far? I hope so! Thanks to everyone for reading and voting! It's very appreciated!(: This chapter is really short, sorry. It's a little more of a filler. I'll get more up soon. I'll let you guys read now.]

Turns out the guys knew about Louis' plan. They knew he would take me here, so this was were they were going to gang up on us. Zayn tells Niall to take me to the locker room so I can change. Zayn calls Liam and Harry, telling them they caught us. As Niall leads me back to the locker room, I hear Louis and Zayn arguing again. Niall waits outside the locker room while I change. Once I've got my dress back on I imagine Louis coming in and wrapping his arms around me again. It might be the last time I see him. I really hope we can work something out because today was so much fun. When I'm finished I walk out to Zayn, Harry, Liam, Niall and Louis waiting. Louis wont look at me, he stares at the floor. I notice a red mark across his face and I want to lash out and punch someone. Niall stands to my right, Liam to my left, and Harry on Louis' left and Zayn on his right. We walk through the halls, until we make it to the front desk. Zayn waves to the lady and we walk out. Louis, Zayn, and Harry go in Louis' Lamborghini while Liam leads me and Niall to a different car. I sit in the back, while Niall and Liam sit upfront. I stare out the window while they murmur things back and forth to each other. We follow Louis and the others to a giant house just outside of LA. The guys get out, and Liam comes and opens the door for me. I hop out and start following Niall. Zayn holds the door open as everyone files in. The first room in the house is a living room filled with bookshelves. We follow Harry into the next room, an office. A man sits behind a giant desk typing away on his computer. Six chairs are set up in front if the desk. We go in the same order, Harry, Louis, Zayn, Liam, me, Niall. The man stops typing and introduces himself to me as the head of Modest! Management. That's when I remember what Louis had said at the café, that he could get in lots of trouble for dating me. And I'm suddenly terrified of how this is going to turn out. The man asks Louis many questions about stupid things like how he met me and what he knew about me. Then the man asked me two questions.

"Now, Amber, how did you meet Louis?"

"I had just met him last night, but of course I had heard of him and the rest of the guys before." I say to the man, holding back my anger. He types that down.

"Okay good. And why do you like Louis?" He asks, looking at me through his glasses.

"I don't know..." This gets everyones attention. I swallow before speaking again. "I guess... He's just the kind of person I am. We're both not afraid to be ourselves... I don't know okay just type that down on your stupid fucking computer." I snarl at the man, suddenly getting angry. The man sighs, taking his glasses off and setting them on the desk. He rubs his forehead and puts his elbows down on the table.

"Louis, Amber. The One Direction fan base really doesn't like you two together. It's dropping our profits and ratings. We're afraid there's two options for you Louis. And Amber, you have to agree with what he does." The man says. I look over at Louis. He's sitting with his elbows on his knees and his head in his hands.

"Louis, you can either choose Amber," the man pauses. "Or you can choose to stay with the guys. One or the other." Louis lifts his head and my mouth drops. You have got to be kidding me. I look over at Louis, who once again has his head buried in his hands. I stand up and stare at the man before walking around Niall and heading towards the door. I push it open and run out into the other room. I hear Louis shout in the other room before crashing out the door after me. I'm sobbing by the time he reaches me.

"Amber... Amber... I am so sorry... This is all my fault... I should have never said anything... I am so sorry." He keeps saying, holding onto my shoulders. The tears keep rolling down my cheeks and I can't bring myself to say anything. He pulls me into a hug so tight I thought he might be able to cut me in half.

"Go Louis... Go back with the guys..." I finally say, pulling away from him. He reaches out for me again but I back away. Zayn erupts from the door and Louis chases after me until Zayn grabs him and pulls him back. I don't look back as I run away from the house. I have no idea were I am. I do what I have to.

"Luke..." I choke out.

"Amber!? Amber whats wrong were are you?!" Luke franticly asks.

"Outside of LA somewhere... Please help me Luke... I am so sorry..." I plead with him.

"I'm coming." He says and I already hear him revving the engine in his car. He keeps me on the phone as he searches for me.

Finally, after an hour of traveling on road after road, he pulls up next to me. I hop in still sobbing.

"Amber what hap..."

"I was wrong and you were right. I just want to go to bed. But I don't want to be alone." I say interrupting him. He nods and we travel silently back through LA to his house.
