~Audrey's POV~

Another fucking day at Starbucks. The glory place of bitches. Obviously I am an optimist. NOT. So I work at Starbucks. I needed a job to get my mind off things what can I say. I don't have the greatest life but I can't say that it's the worst.

I live alone. I don't really know where my parents are. I don't really care where my parents are. When I turned 18 I was out of there. There was no stopping me. I don't have any friends.

I used to.

His name was Liam James Payne. The only one that could ever make me smile. He then decided that it would be a great idea to go to X Factor. I supported him completely. That was until he never called me. I called him 27 times the first day of the UAN tour. No answer.

He had forgotten about me.

I decided to accept the fact that we would never be friends again. It was hard. But I did. Now the mere mention of his name makes my blood boil. Everyday I'm scared he'll come back begging to be friends again but then I think that that would never happen! 

Now I have no friends. I'm OK with that. I don't have time for them. OK, so I have lots of time for them but I choose not to.

My alarm pulls me out of my peaceful slumber. What a rude awakening. That means work. From 8 until noon I work. Every other day I have a shift in the afternoon. That's from 1until 5. Today is one of the good days where I only work in the morning. I roll out of bed, pushing myself to actually get ready.

After a hot shower I throw on my light blue skinny jeans and an off the shoulder black sweater. To top it off I throw on my TOMS ankle bots. Nutella on a bagel, as normal, to satisfy my morning hunger. And off to work I go.

I step inside and groan as the smell of over used perfume and coffee hits me. Some teenage girls really, it's just horrible. I put on my apron and hat in the back room and head over to the counter. Girl after girl ordering their petty little drinks that, may I add, are way over priced.

"Hello how may help you?" I ask the next costumer as I finish filling out the specifics on the cup. I set the cup down and look up. My heart starts pounding so hard that I'm sure the person at the front of the shop could catch it.

Liam James Payne.

He was standing right in front of me. Shit. I don't want to talk to him. I don't want to look at him.

"Audrey?" He says confused. I step back and dash to the back room, ripping off my apron and hat as I go. I could hear him call my name as I left out the front door. I was not staying. No, I wouldn't stay if they told me I couldn't keep my job after that. Hell, I wouldn't stay if they threatened to murder me!

There was no way that I just saw him again. He actually remembered who I was. Shut up Audrey. You're done with him. We're not friends anymore and we never will be. Just get out of here and forget it ever happened.

I still can't process this. I, Audrey just saw Liam Payne. My ex-best friend. The one who ditched me to become famous. He completely forgot about me for the fame and money. Probably for some slut-bag too.

I slam the door behind me and slide down it. Thank God he doesn't know where I live. That would be the worst thing ever. After sitting in a ball for an hour I decide to get up and do something. The problem is; I have nothing to do. I could bake, or try to focus on the telly.

I know I couldn't focus on those things though. I need to get my mind off everything. A jog maybe? No, I'm too lazy today. I could just crawl into my bed and try to sleep.
