*Zayn's POV*

I need to tell Kevin that I spoke to Liam. We aren't the best friends yet but we made the first step. I pull into a lot down the street. I knock on the door of Kevin's and Luke opens it after a few seconds.
"Hey, is Kevin home?"
The guy nods and moves so I can walk in. "He's upstairs." The kid says and goes back to his video game.

I take the stairs, I've never been here before so I don't know which door I have to knock on. What if I knock on the door of his parents bedroom?
That would be pretty awkward.
I decide to take the first door I see.
After ten seconds a lady with dark brown hair opens the door. She's wearing red pajamas. It's only eight.
"I am so sorry, I was looking for Kevin." I apology. The lady doesn't look friendly at all. "I am Ashley, his sister." She says and closes the door before I can say something.
Okay.
Well nice to meet you too, Ashley.

One of the other doors opens, Kevin's head appears in the doorway. I smile, but he doesn't seem to be happy with my presence.
"Hey, Zayn..." He says on a nervous tone. "Hey Kevin." I smile, trying to stop this awkwardness.
"Something wrong?" I step towards him, his hand are running through his short hair now. His browns are pressed in a hard line. When I come closer I notice his hands are shaking.

"One second." He says and rushes back into his bedroom. What's this all about? He's acting so strange. Is he hiding something for me?

"Okay." I whisper. I hear him talking to someone. Is he on the phone? I decide to walk in. I'm his boyfriend, he shouldn't have any secrets for me.

When I appear in the room he suddenly ends his call. I just heard him saying "just not now, I see you tomorrow." Who was he talking to? Was he expecting someone?



*Kate's POV*

On our way home Celine and I were laughing about our actions in Starbucks. Once again I had an idea that didn't end well. Luckily Louis helped us. I should call him to thank him.

"Hey Katie."
"Hey Lou, are you home?"
"No, I'm in the car."
"Oh I'll call you back, you shouldn't call while driving."
"No it's okay really."
"Thank you for helping us."
"Your welcome, your my little sis I would do anything for you."
"Louis,..."
"Yea?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to tell you how happy I am that you're here to help us with the twins, I'll come to visit this week."
".."
"Louis?"
"Yea I'm sorry, okay that's cool."

He sounds so out off guard. Did I say something wrong?

"Katie I have to go, I'll call you back." Before I can say something the line is dead.

I put my phone away and Liam walks in the room drying his hair. A water drop streams down his neck.
"How was shopping?" He asks while putting his sweatpants on. Should I tell him about running into Sophia and having a nice talk? I decide against it, he would be worrying for no reason. She doesn't scare me, I can handle her.

The only thing that keeps my mind busy is who the hell Lola is and what she has to do with me.

"Who's Lola?"

The question is laying on the tip of my tongue since a few hours.
I notice Liam's hands start shaking and he bites his lip. His hand goes through his hair. "Lola who?" He asks, he tries not to show any emotion but fails miserably. His voice is shaking and he pulls a shirt over his head to hide his face for me.

"You tell me," I say. I don't know why but I'm getting angry. I feel like crying right now. I was so sure that I wasn't scared of Sophia but not knowing Lola's story and what she has to do with me gives me the thoughts that I may have to be scared.

"I don't know a Lola." He lies even though he knows I can see he's not telling the truth.

"Astrid knows her." I say, my nerves are taking control here. I want to grab something and tier it into little pieces. A pillow for example.

"Then you have to ask her." He dryly responds, well not so dryly. His voice cracks on the end of his sentence.

"I'm asking you." I know I should keep my big mouth shut. For once.
I'm staying at his house cause I have no place to go and when I keep going like this I'll have to stay in a hotel. No, Liam would never let me stay at a hotel.

"I don't know her okay." He says. Almost screams. I open my mouth to say something I'll regret but I can pull my words back in just on time.

"I need to ask Niall something, I'll be right back." He lies. The crinkles by his eyes get visible, just like when he's laughing or thinking.



*Astrid's POV*

I close the door behind me. Astrid what the hell was that? I couldn't ignore the feeling in my body when I heard the door of the car opening.
I couldn't ignore how his raspy voice called my name. I couldn't ignore the feeling of his lips on mine, the feeling I was waiting on without realizing.

Astrid back to earth, you have the boyfriend every girl dreams of. And you are thinking about kissing Harry fucking Styles? The one who lied to you, the one who hurt you and you're family, the one who suddenly came into your life, the one you wanted to be friends with just because you wanted to help him getting a normal life, because you wanted to show him what friendship is.

"Hello?" Liam waves his hands in front of my eyes. I wake up from my deep thoughts.

"I need your help, now." He says. Desperation is almost making his eyes cry. "What's wrong?" My stupid thoughts about my kiss lately are gone. My brothers come on the first place. "Kate... She just... Lola... And she knows... I don't know..." He stutters. I know he hates lying and especially to the girl named Kate Rose Tomlinson.

"Did you tell her?" All the muscles in my body are pulling together.
"No, I want to but I can't."
Relief fills my body and I feel the blood streaming back to my hands.
"We can't tell her Liam, she will be so scared, and you know her."
"Yes but if I don't she'll start a fight with Sophia and we both know how that's going to end."
"We need to stop Sophia before she can do anything to Kate without telling her.

"How?"
I don't know, I have no fucking clue how. "What if Sophia does the same to Kate. What if Kate gets back into that hospital? She'll lose it. I promised her she would never get back there."
"Liam calm down, she wont get back there. That's the last thing on this earth I want to happen. We can't do stupid things we have to think clearly." He nods.

Actually this is about death or life.
Literally.



*Zayn's POV*

"I think I better go home." I say when he almost glares at me.
"I said wait a second."
He can't be serious.
"I'm sorry for trying to make you happy by visiting what obviously doesn't make you happy."
"No, Zayn. It's nothing like that."
"Why do you have secrets for me?"
"I don't." He says, trying to laugh it away what makes me furious.
"Who were you calling just now?"
"Nobody."
"You see." I shake my head while turning to the stairs I only took once.
"Zayn wait! What's this?"
"You tell me."
"We aren't breaking up right?"
"I don't know, you're lying to me."


When Kevin says nothing I shake my head and go back to the front door.
I knew something was missing between us and now I know what.
Trust.
I fell in love on someone I can't trust.
