Chapter 2

I went on my Twitter and clicked to compose a new tweet. I typed in, 'I really miss my best mate... I wish he missed me too.' And sent it. What were the chances Louis would see that? Well, slim to none- or so I thought. A few minutes later, I felt my phone buzz, and it was my DM's. It was Louis. Our conversation went like this:

My expression softened. "He didn't lose it...?" Liam looked at me sympathetically. "No, he didn't. You think he stopped talking to you, don't you...?" I stared at Liam in shock, and he said, "Come here and sit down..."
