-AVA-

  Jules' jaw was practically on the ground. I'm surprised people aren't tripping over it as they walked their children into the playground of Emma's nursery. We had just dropped Emma off after I collected her from my Mother's, got her ready there and brought her over.

   I also had just told Jules that Alex kissed me last night.

   "Holy..."

   "Jules, there are children around," I warn her before she unleashed her potty mouth onto the world.

   "Wait!" She exclaims, even catching the attention of some parents around her. "Oh no, not you I'm so sorry." She apologised to a lady who ended up stopping mid-walk, hearing Jules' sudden outburst and thinking it was towards her.

   She then grabs onto my arm and drags me out of the gates, far, far away from the nursery where nobody was around to hear our conversation, and then...

   Let's just say she completely freaked out, and dramatic Jules was let out for the world to see.

   "Alex Darkbloom snogged you?!"

   "Ssshhh!" I exclaim back, putting my index finger against my lips and then frantically looked around to see if anyone was around to hear that, and then turned back to her again, only to find her trying to touch my lips.

   "Let me touch them, please! Alex Darkbloom touched them with his lips."

   "Get away from me, you actual weirdo," I swat her hands away from my face. "You need to calm down."

  "But you swapped saliva with Alex!"

  "Jules, please!" I beg now for her to be quiet.

   "I cannot believe that that hottie Alex Darkbloom kissed you," She now whispers to me. "You are literally the luckiest girl I have ever come across, EVER!" Well there went the whispering. "How was it?"

   I only sigh dreamily, throwing my mind back to the memory just from yesterday as I link arms with her, walking down the street.

   "The best," She ended up squealing, turning to face me as she stopped us in our tracks, in the middle of the pavement. "He's such a good kisser."

   "Wow!" She clapped her hands together. "This is literally unreal! Are you guys going out again?"

   "Not tonight, I think he has a work thing tonight."

   "Aw, look how sad you are."

   "I'm not sad!"

   "Yes you are!" I only roll my eyes playfully back at her in response. "So when are you seeing him next?"

   "I don't know, but he texted me this morning to ask how I was, and if Emma got to nursery safely."

   "He's like gold, you've actually found gold." Her face was completely serious.

   "You're so bloody dramatic, I worry for you sometimes."

   "Tell me you had sex with him last night."

   "JULES!"

   "What? I would be massively disappointed with you if you didn't."

   "We didn't have sex last night."

   "AVE!" I fear she could have murdered me if she wanted to, right here and now. "You had the perfect opportunity to!"

   "It was the third date!"

   "You always keep saying that, but  will you ever get the chance again, eh?"

   "Okay, you really need to calm down now; I think that's your inner fan girl speaking now."

   "Oh my God..." She looks horrified. "I've actually gone full fan girl, haven't I?" I only reply with a couple of slow nods, sucking my bottom lip slightly. "Yo, I just need Harry Styles to hold me, that's all I need."

   "I know girl," I pat her on her back. "But think of it like this, he's going to be in that new movie soon, you can go to the cinema and see him right in front of you, a massive screen, and you can imagine to hug him there!"

   She only just looked at me, her horrified expression fading into one of despair.

   "That's literally the worst attempt at picking someone up I have EVER heard."

   "Hey, I tried!" I call after her after she ended up walking off, all dramatic and in love with the One Direction member. I began running after her, catching up before she turned the corner.

  "Sure, I tell you how I desperately need a hug from one of my heroes, and here you are, telling me to go and see him in his new movie on a screen that's a 1000 times bigger than real life, further reinforcing that I will probably never, EVER, get that hug!"

  "But you know... My step-brother looks slightly like Louis Tomlinson though, doesn't he?"

   That stopped her in her tracks yet again, as she just began staring holes into me. Wow. She looks pissed. I actually thought she was looking deep into my soul for a second with those daggers.

   "How dare you compare your sleaze ball of a brother Logan to the beauty that is known as Louis Tomlinson?!" She screams at me, causing me to try hard to suppress my laughter, placing a hand over my mouth. She is actually going red.

   She properly loves One Direction, even at 22 years of age. "That man is gorgeous, and if you love me cousin, you'll never compare him to Logan ever again."

   "My step-brother isn't a sleaze ball, Jules," I am cut off almost immediately. No surprise.

   "I pray for the girl that ends up with Logan, the girl has some serious issues to deal with!" She began ranting, still walking down the street. I smirked, only listening to her as I followed her a few steps behind, my hands holding onto the side bag wrapped around my body. "Seriously, I would rather EAT MY OWN HAIR than get together with Logan bloody Perfect! He's DEFINITELY not what his name suggests! Not in a million years!"

   "Not completely sold on that just yet." I whisper to myself as she continued on with her rant, storming down the street, without a care in the world if anyone around her hears her going on, and on, and on.

  'Poor girl,' I think to myself, biting down on my bottom lip. 'she really has no idea how in love she is.'
