~Eleanor's Point Of View~

I'd booked a taxi and was waiting outside the house for it.

"You're really going" Siva said, creeping up behind me

"I've got to, I can't stay here" I replied clutching onto my grandma's necklace tightly

"But can't you at least talk things out"

"No. Me and Nathan were just never meant to be and we never will be"

Siva opened his mouth and closed it again as the taxi pulled up

"Here, take this" He said handing me a fiver

"What? No don't be daft"

"No, I want you to take it" he replied, he grabbed my bag and put it into the boot before giving me a hug, he then pulled away and made his way back into the house, I must admit, I would miss living there, but it had to be done. I couldn't stay there a minute longer.

The journey wasn't that long as Harveen only lived a few streets away, I payed the taxi driver and knocked on Harveen's door. She opened the door and helped me with my bag

"Sit down" she said "you can tell me what's happened if you like"

"I don't know what to tell you" I replied "It was just how things turned out"

Harveen sat down at the other side of the table "I know, but, did you want it to turn out this way?"

"If I'm being honest, no, not really. I really liked him, but we just argued so much and we wasn't even together! I don't want to be in a relationship where we argue, arguing leads to....well you know"

"You can't possibly think that Nathan would ever hit you?"

"I-I don't know...I don't know who to trust anymore, before Connor hit me I was so carefree, I never expected he'd hurt me even though he shouted at me all the time, but when he did, that was it for me, I just think that's going to happen again.."

"It won't Eleanor! Nathan does care for you! He loves you, I can see it! The reason why he's getting so angry is because he's frustrated you're not together. He doesn't understand how you feel, you need to tell him what you're telling me"

"But would he understand?"

"Of course he would! He loves you! Of course he's going to listen to what you've got to say"

"I just don't think I can speak to him right now. Maybe in a few days. Not yet"

Harveen nodded "You want some chocolate cake?"

I nodded. Harveen was the only person I could trust.

I had some chocolate cake but didn't manage to finish it all, so Harveen ate the remains of mine, and two other slices! I don't know how she's not fat! After we'd ate, Harveen suggested we went shopping as I didn't have much clothes with me.

We wandered around the shopping centre, some girls must have noticed me as they sung Walks Like Rihanna as I walked by

"Wow, I feel like I'm with an A-lister" Harveen winked at me

"Ha-ha, I'll have to trademark my moves!"

We went to nearly every shop in the centre, trying and buying clothes. I think I got a pretty good deal! Well, being an extra isn't all that bad when it comes to money! Harveen bought a few outfits too, but most of the time she just tried on unusual pairs of sunglasses and took 'selfies' to post on Twitter!

"Come on poser, I'm hungry!" I laughed

"Oh p-lease! You're much worse than me!"

We made our way out of New Look to hear what seemed like thousands of girls screaming
