Nothing In This World Will Ever Break My Heart Again

Chapter 1 - The Cigarette

(Katy POV)

"I feel like absolute shit Tam" I said letting my head drop into my hand as we sit at the back table in the Risotto Italian restaurant.

"I know, it's probably heat stroke Kate, the pain killers should kick in soon" Tam said rubbing my forearm as her eyes scan over the menu.

"I know" I said closing my eyes, feeling the throbbing against my left temple begin to slowly die down, thankfully.

"Just think on the positive side, tonight is the last show of the tour, your family will be there, all your friends and it's in your hometown! It's gonna be great!" Tam said energetically.

"I hope so, I'm just jet lagged I think, but I'll be right by tonight" I said shrugging as I open my eyes and lift my head from my hand.

"Let's just eat and then decide what you want to do before we head to the arena" Tam said as I nodded.

"Can we go to the gym? I think it will help wake me up" I asked Tamra like a little kid asking her mom for permission to do something.

"Of course" Tanra said looking to our side as a tall, dark headed, handsome waiter comes to stand beside our table.

"Afternoon Ladies, I'm Denver and I'll be looking after you tonight" he said before smiling a big bright smile at us.

I count in my head before I feel the skipping rope get caught on my left ankle, harshly whipping my shin.

"Ow! Fuck sake" I say eventually giving up and throwing the rope onto the ground in annoyance.

"Everything ok?" I heard Tam ask from behind me.

"No! I can get to 50 skips like I usually do, I don't know what's wrong with me" I said with attitude.

"I'm sure your just stressed Kate" Tam said as I put my hands on my hips.

"Yeah well exercise doesn't help with stress, I'm going to have a cigarette" I said as Tam stepped to go out with me.

"By myself, I'll be back soon" I said picking up my small purse while Tam nodded her head slightly.

(Hayden POV)

"Wladimir! I know what I saw! Don't try a change my mind, if you love her so god damn much, be with her! I'm not stopping you anymore, we are OVER!" I said before smashing my phone on the ground.

I put my hand over my mouth as I look at my iPhone 6S which is on the ground now shattered, the screen was slightly hanging out of the body of the phone.

I slowly bend down to pick it up, I press the home button, nothing happens.

I sigh in frustration as I stand back up properly, then I remember the reason I threw my phone.

I feel a tear slip from my eye as I think about Wladimir, why would he do this?

I watch as my hands begin to shake because of all the mixed emotions going through my head.

The sound of a banging door makes me sniffle and look up to see a woman with dark black hair storm out of the back exit to a personal gym.

She was wearing black short-shorts and a bright pink sports bra, he chest and stomach were slightly wet, from sweat I guess, she did just walk out of a gym.

I watch as she places a cigarette between her lips and starts rooting through her purse, frowning as she does it.

I felt awkward watching her because I seem like a stalker, but I was kind of struck by her appearance.

I tried to break my eyes away from her but every time I did they quickly focused back on her, it was like she is a magnet or something...

After watching her for a bit, I then realise that she must be looking for a lighter, but can't find one.

I walk towards her, reaching into my back pocket and pulling my own sliver lighter out.

I didn't even think about what I was doing until I already done it.

"Hey" I said making her look at me as I throw the lighter in the air towards her. I watch as her quick reaction kicks in and her right hand reaches out and grabs my lighter while the other holds her purse.

"Ah, thank you" She said giving me a small smile before lighting her cigarette.

I watch as she hands me back my lighter and blows a cloud of smoke out.

"I'm Hayden" I say quickly, instantly regretting it, I don't even know why I walked up to her....

I watch as she pulls the cigarette from her mouth and smiles, "I'm Katy" she said as I smile back.

"Hey are you ok?" She asked as she turns her whole body to me, her face creased with a look that seemed like concern.

"Uh, yea I'm fine" I chuckled, trying to play it off cool. "That's a lie" Katy said with a serious expression.

"Huh?" I replied with a confused tone, how would she know what I'm feeling, she only just met me.

"Your crying" Katy said pointing to my eyes, I raise my hand to my cheeks, my finger tips coming into contact with the damp skin under my eyes.

"Oh" I chuckled quickly wiping my eyes with the backs of my hands.

"It's nothing, I'm fine"  I said shaking my head as Katy stands up straight.

"Ok, I don't usually stop and ask crying strangers about their problems, but I dunno, there's just something about you" Katy chuckle placing the cigarette back into her mouth.

I felt butterflies in the pit of my stomach at her words, what the hell... I ignore the butterflies and chuckle.

(Katy POV)

I watch as the blonde headed beauty beside me chuckles at my comment.

"So your a smoker?" I said motioning down to the lighter still in her hand. I watch as her eyes flicker down to it.

"Not really, I guess it's a good stress released" Hayden shrugged as her fingers felt along the material on the outside of the lighter.

"Same here, I don't smoke a lot, but when I do I usually have a reason, hence why I don't carry a lighter with me everywhere" I chuckle taking the cigarette back to my lips, inhaling another breath of smoke.

"Oh, are you ok then?" Hayden asks me making me frown, "yeah, I'm not crying" I say as we both laugh.

"No but your smoking, and you said you only smoke when you have a reason" she said shrugging.

"Just stress I guess, my job is just getting to me a bit" I shrug as she laugh and slides her hands in her back pockets while looking at the ground.

"Yep, I completely understand that one" she said nodding her head.

If only you did..

"Hey listen, thanks for the chat" I said walking over to a cigarette disposer and squishing what's left of it before turning back around to her.

"It was nice just having a general chat with someone" I said giving her a genuine smile.

"No thank you, it was nice to get my mind of some things for a minute or two" Hayden chuckled.

"I hope I see you around sometimes" I say as Hayden smiles, "believe me, so do I" she says before turning her back to me and walking away.

I watch as she walks away, my eyes scanning her perfectly curled blonde hair.

Then for some reason I find my eyes travelling down to her ass.

"Stop it Kate" I say when I realise I was checking her out... Even though I liked what I saw.
