*Liam's POV*

I push the front door open so Kate can walk inside. Sophia really screwed our night. Why did she have to show up? She was provoking me, testing me really. I know Kate isn't as scared of Sophia as she has to be... That girl is insane and I'm sure she's going to hurt Kate whenever she gets the chance to. Her blond hair jumps up and down when she walks up the stairs.

"What's going on?" My sister asks.
"Sophia was there." I answer still looking at the empty stairs.
"Oh gosh what did she do?"
"Nothing... Yet."
Astrid lets out a breath. She's the only one who knows about what Sophia did to that girl to get me.
"Did you tell Kate about Lola?"
"No.. Should I?"
Hearing the name of the girl makes me shiver. "I don't know." She admits. Now it's my turn to let out the breath I'm holding since this conversation started.
"She'll be scared... But she won't do the stupid things we both know she's planning to do." Astrid says. It's true. Kate will be horrified and I think she won't leave the house ever again but Kate is so impulsive and scared of nothing except hospitals and bikes and spiders of course.
But when she's going to do stupid things Sophia will take care of her and make she'll end up in the hospital again.

Just like Lola.

Astrid knows Kate almost as well as me and she also knows Kate is planning on putting Sophia on her place. She'll try to say hurtful things to her who aren't going to hurt her. Sophia will say things back who will hurt Kate and they get into a fight. The picture of Sophia's long nails scratching Kate's perfect tanned skin makes me want to throw something against the wall. Since when am I this aggressive?

I walk up the stairs and join Kate in the bathroom. She's wearing grey sweatpants and a red top. Her blonde hair is into a messy bun. She's brushing her teeth while looking at herself in the mirror. I stand behind her and put my arms around her waist. I kiss the back of her head and her neck. She doesn't move, only her arm still brushing her perfect white teeth. She doesn't know how irresistible she actually is, whatever she's wearing, in whatever mood she is, she looks stunning.

I strike her back with the top of my forefinger, on the place where the huge scar is that devises the perfect skin on her back into two pieces.

I leave her alone so she has some time for herself, she needs it I think.
At the time she walks in the bedroom I put my sweatpants on too. I was going to put a shirt on but how Kate's staring at my body makes me decide against it.

She's laying down on the bed, staring at the ceiling. I join her on the bed laying next to her staring at the ceiling as well.
"What did she do to make you this afraid? Afraid she'll hurt me?"
I knew this was coming, I tried to hide my feelings but of course she sees it, she reads me, like a book she reads for the hundreds time.
"Nothing, she just looks so bitchy."
My voice betrays my nerves and of course Kate heard it. But she lets it go. We're both changing here, I'm turning aggressive and mad while Kate turns quiet and doesn't ask any questions anymore.

"How do you mean?"
I was wrong, Kate didn't change.
"I don't know, those lips and nails and she has an attitude." I say with a lot more confidence than before. I sound very believable I think.
"Oh." Is the only thing she says.

When I turn my head to look at her she already fell asleep. Her soft lips are in a small smile and a string of her hair is laying across her face. I put it behind her ear and kiss her cheek softly. I pull the blanket to her chest to cover her skinny body.
After some time thinking and thinking I can fall asleep finally.



*Astrid's POV*

Sophia's back... That can't be a good thing. Kate has to be careful.

I'm so nervous for tomorrow. A part of me is excited that Jake wants me to meet his family but the other part, a bigger part, thinks it's a bit awkward to visit the mother of my brand new boyfriend in the hospital.

I head to the bathroom, Kate isn't here and I'm happy for that. She's my friend, I want to tell her about Lola, about how scared she has to be. I want to warn her for everything I know that's going to happen to her.
I can't look at her, I already feel guilty. Liam really needs to tell her, Kate is such an impulsive person she won't doubt to start a fight with Sophia what I know she's going to lose. I don't want to tell her, I don't even want to be there if someone tells her, I don't want to see her face when she hears what happened to the poor girl named Lola.
My phone vibrates, I have a message from Jake.


From: Jake <3

- 'Can't wait to see you, I already miss you! Hope you didn't change your mind and you're still coming with me and Mattie.
Goodnight sweetheart :* <3'


To: Jake <3

- 'Of course I didn't change my mind! :) goodnight xx'


I put my phone away and look at myself in the mirror. The thoughts of Jake not really knowing me keeps my head busy. I put my hair over one shoulder and wash my face. Normal people do that in the morning but I feel like doing it now.
Harry keeps swimming in my mind. He was so strange on the phone.. Why can't he just be happy like every other friend would be?
And once again is proved Harry isn't a normal friend.
My eyes search the clock, already 1am? I really need to get some sleep, I need to look descent when I meet Jake's mother.



*Celine's POV*

I'm exhausted, you can be so tired after watching a movie. Niall is in the bathroom so I'm alone in my cream colored bedroom. I stare at the white curtains and after minutes I close my eyes. I hear the door opening and footsteps who walk to my side of the bed. My side of the bed... I repeat the words in my head. It sounds like we're married for years. The footsteps ,who're of Niall that's for sure, I know his step, stop in front me. Niall hooks down and puts my hair behind my ear. His lips kiss my face next to my closed eyes.
I feel his minty breath against my cheek, he smells like my toothpaste.

"I love you so much, you know that don't you?" He asks my half sleeping body. "I should tell you more often how much you mean to me." He has to be kidding me. He tells me he loves me all the time, he takes me to a restaurant, to the movies and forbids me to pay something. "You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, maybe that is because I only see you and don't look at the others." His words make me want to open my eyes and kiss him but I want to hear what he's going to say next. I know what he's telling is true, he won't lie to me when I'm sleeping actually he won't lie to me at all. "My heart broke when you kissed Harry, I was so scared to lose you. I know I'm not good enough for you but he isn't good enough either. I know him, better than you can imagine. He did so much wrong things to me, in the past he was so terrible to me and then you, Kate and I think Astrid is next. All the fights with him... But if he touches you once again I won't bother to smash his face against a wall." His last words hit me right in the heart. He's going to hurt Harry when I talk to him again. What does he mean with knowing Harry better than I can imagine? Harry did terrible things to him in the past? What's this all about? "I don't want him to hurt you like he did to me." His angel voice adds. My confusion gets even bigger. Like Harry did to him?

Niall kisses my hand and and puts it on his naked chest. "You feel this? It's only beating for you. You're the only reason why I'm here." My regrets of kissing Harry only get bigger and bigger. I'm slated that when it keeps growing like this, I'll explode some day. "Sweet dreams." He puts my hand back and stands up. He walks to his side of the bed, again it feels like we're a married couple, and lays down. After some minutes I hear a soft snoring sound.
It seems like I'm not going to sleep much tonight.
