                                             The sun shone through the slightly cracked curtains, blinding me. I laid next to Sam, our legs intertwined underneath the bed sheets. Last night was nice, but not amazing. My hair was sticking up everywhere and his snoring was too loud for my liking. After about three minutes of just laying there, crying my eyes out, I got out of the bed and made my way towards the bathroom. My dress was still downstairs, but once I entered the room, some jeans and a shirt was sat on the counter. It must have been his sister's doing. These items were clearly not guy's material. I shut the door and continued to let the tears fall, wiping the dripping makeup from my cheeks. No, I wasn't a virgin. So, no, I did not bleed everywhere. But it wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be. I bit down on my lip, stiffling the choking sobs. I slipped into the clothes his sister had leant me and made my way back into the bedroom. 

"Hey, babe," Sam cooed, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. But once he saw that I was fully dressed, he frowned. "You were going to run out on me?" "No!" I shrieked, holding my hands out towards him. "I could never do that. I was just changing so it wouldn't be so....awkward." I smiled softly, hearing the familiar ringtone coming from downstairs. I suddenly ran out the door and down the stairs for my phone. It was Perrie's ringtone. What if she needed me? I dived for my phone, sliding the bar to answer her incoming call, "Hello?" She took a deep breath. "What do you mean by mistake? Jade, what did he do? Did he stand you up?" Her questions flooded between her lips in a rush, worry clear in her tone. 

"No, Pezz. I'll have to tell you later, alright? We can have a group call?" She only hummed in response, sending my thoughts over myself. I scrolled through my notifications after she had hung up, noticing I was mentioned by not only Zayn again, but Harry as well...

@zaynmalik1D: What mistakes ? With the date ?x

@Harry_Styles: Everybody makes mistakes , everybody has those days. ;)x

I laughed at Harry's tweet, which brought tears to my eyes. I did make a mistake. I used, and he used me also, for my grades. What kind of sick person does that? I grimaced, running my fingers through my hair. "Jade?" Sam called from upstairs, followed by the sound of the bed shifting. Oh, god. Please put on clothes before you come in here. I sat on the couch, biting my lip and playing with my fingers. I felt awful for this. I'm such a horrible person. God, Jade. I rubbed my face, holding back the threatening tears. Sam finally came back downstairs in a pair of sweatpants and a white tee. "Is something wrong?" he asked me, rubbing my back softly. I just shook my head, forcing a small smile. "Thank you for the amazing time, Sam. But I should probably get home. My mum is most likely worried sick," I explained, picking my dress up from the floor. 

I waved a goodbye and headed out the door, with zero protests from him. I still can't believe I did that. I quickly dialed Perrie's number when I got in the car and put it on speaker, starting the vehicle. Tears were full on falling now, and I could hardly see. But I kept going. "Hello?" her deep accent answered. I sniffled, pulling out of the driveway. "Pezz?" I whimpered, speeding down the highway. "Jadey? What's wrong, baba?" I choked back a sob, wiping my eyes so I could see a bit better. "Can you add the other girls? It's important. I made a HUGE mistake..." She hummed in response and before I knew it, Leigh's voice rang out. "Pezz? Is something wrong?" she asked. Probably because she heard me sniffling. "Something's wrong with Jadey. Wait till Jes answers." And as if on que, Jesy answered groggily. "Trying to take a nap here!" she snapped, causing me to let out a faint laugh. 

"Well, Jes, we have a bigger problem!" Perrie said loudly, huffing from her end of the phone. "Guys," I started, sniffling. The tears were falling harder and luckily I had stopped at a redlight. "I slept with him." I felt so ashamed, and so used. "You did what!?" Pezz snapped, screaming angrily. "You should have just listened to me last night! Teachers his age are no good!" I sobbed, tangling my slim fingers in my hair sadly. "I know... I'm sorry, Pezza." Leigh - or Jes - sighed. I just cried harder until I heard honking behind me. "Are you driving too?" Jesy snapped, and I could tell that she was frowning. "I have to get home. I need my mummy," I whimpered, hitting the gas slowly. "Jade!" Leigh yelped, "that's dangerous!" I just ignored them, sniffling all the way back home. It was quiet, and finally I had just hung up on them. 

Why do I tell them everything when they're just going to snap at me? Because their your friends. I sighed, shutting off the car and getting out, stuffing my phone in my pocket. My cheeks were red and my eyes were puffy, so I knew my mum would know something was up. I had to tell her, she's the only one that can truly help. She always hugs me and kisses my forehead, telling me everything will be alright. I just hope she'll agree with this one. I walked inside, calling my mum's name quietly. And she soon appeared near the door, her eyes widening when she saw my appearance. "Lovely, what's wrong?" I sniffled, tears running down my cheeks once again, and ran into her arms. "He used me, mummy..." I whimpered under her touch, sniffling like a madwoman. 

She just shushed me and stroked my hair, whispering that it's going to be alright to me. I could barely breathe under her tight grip, but I didn't mind that at all. I was being comforted by the best mum in the world. "I love you," I told her quietly, breaking the embrace. "I love you too, Poopie." She kissed my forehead and sent me off the my room to change into something better. "We're going out today," she told me, winking stupidly. I just nodded, not asking my questions just yet. I just have a feeling we're probably going shopping for her. I jogged up the steps and into my room, shutting my door behind me. "I have the best mum ever," I said to myself, smiling widely. 

I stripped my clothes off and hurriedly got into the shower. Squealing at the cold water, I jumped out. And then I noticed that I forgot a towel. I seriously can be stupid sometimes. I finally saw the steam coming from the shower so I hopped in. The warm water relaxed my aching muscles when I realized something. There were bruises all over my neck and collarbone! I look like I was beat up! 

Now I'm nervous to see what mum would say....

Hi, guys! Sorry for the short chapter. And it seemed a bit stupid to me, but it's an update, right? Anyway, check out my new fic "Mum, Meet Mr. Horan". I like it because it's different, ya know?

I'll be sure to put the first chapter up for MMMH. Woah, weird abbreviation. cx But, yeah. I'll try to do that and then another chapter for TLOJP. (: Love you!
