I went round the corner to speak to Louis' mum and Ella.

"I've missed you. I'm glad you're better did you get my card?" Ella asked me, I had no idea what she was going on about but I guessed that she had made a get well soon card for me.

I couldn't make her hate her brother and tell her that I didn't get any card so I lied.

"Yes I did thank you. It was vert nice" I hated lying to get bit I could hardly say that me and her brother weren't together because he's a cheater.

"I didn't realise you were watching the match you should have sat with us" Louis mum said, this was the second time I had to pretend that me and Louis hadn't broke up.

I didn't feel like pretending anymore  I just wanted to be straight with her. What I was about to tell her would break her heart but I couldn't stand it anymore. Louis didn't even tell me to lie to his mum I just went along with it. It seemed like the easy option when she turned up at my house.

"I should have told you sooner but I'm really sorry but me and Louis broke up" her face dropped instantly, I felt so bad seeing her so shocked and upset it made tears well up in my eyes.

I knew that I should have let Louis tell her but I couldnt do it any longer.

"What do you mean?" he voice was shaky and her bottom lip was trembling I knew that she was going to cry any minute.

"You should speak to Louis about it" I didn't want to tell her what actually happened so I began to walk away.

"Just tell me please" she begged, Ella looked upset to she probably didn't understand what was going on but she could tell by our faces it wasn't something good.

"I really think you should hear it from Louis" I squeezed my eyes shut for a moment to stop myself from crying.

"I'll see you soon Ella" I said waving and holding back tears. She gave me a small smile and waved.

I went round the corner to find Charlie and I saw a figure standing by the wall. I knew straight away it was Louis.

"Why did you do that for" his voice was raised but quiet enough so his family couldn't hear him. I wanted to slap him but I had a lot of things I wanted to say to him before I did.

"I'm not going to lie to them anymore just because you're too scared for your mum to see what you're really like. I don't even know why I helped you before after all you've done to me." I didn't even bother to try and speak quietly I didn't care if his mother heard while she was waiting for her 'innocent' son to come out of the changing rooms.

"Well you could have at least told me" he stated like it was the most obvious thing I should do.

"How? Ella just ran up and hugged me. What I was I supposed to do?"

"I don't know you could have just lied or something. Do you know how bad this is going to make me look to my mum" he snapped, I didn't care what his mum would think of him he had created the problem himself it was only a matter of time before the truth got out.

"You've done this to yourself. I didn't tell you to go and kiss some girl" I heard footsteps Louis eyes darted to someone behind me, his mum.

"I can't believe you after everything I've taught you about treating girls right. You're getting more and more like your father each day" She sobbed, I felt so bad for her to hear it like that but I knew that Louis would have probably lied to her about it so it was better she knew the actual truth.

"Why did you do it?" she yelled Louis looked terrified, I'd never seen him look so scared before. "Answer me" she yelled.

I took that moment as a chance to escape I ran back to the front of the changing rooms to find Charlie. I never thought Louis' mum would react in that way. Louis had never told me about how his parents spilt up. I understood why his mum was so upset Louis dad must have cheated on her and now Louis had done the exact same.

I saw Niall sitting on a bench talking to Ella so I looked the other way to avoid them. I could still hear in the distance Louis and his mum shouting at each other. I tried to block the noise out of my head as I looked for Charlie who was nowhere to be seen. People where giving me sympathetic looks I assumed because my eyes were bright red. I hadn't brought a mirror with me so I went to the toilets to see how much of a mess I looked.

I was glad no one was in the toilets so they couldn't hear me crying. I knew that it was only a matter of time before someone came looking for me and the toilets would be the first place to look.

"Lexi" I heard harry shout ad I walked out the bathroom, he was still in his football kit which was stuck to him because of all the sweat.

"Louis and his mum are yelling at each other you have to come and see" he said laughing, he didn't even notice I had been crying, not that he would have cared.

"I know" I snapped.

"Well aren't you going to come and watch" I couldn't believe that he actually thought I would want to watch. He hadn't even bothered to ask me what was wrong, I knew that I clearly looked like I'd been crying but he was too interested in stupid drama to care about me. Some best friend I have I thought to myself.

"No, I don't care go and watch some stupid fight argument if you want I don't fucking care"

He moved his head  back to pretend he was scared. "Woah sounds like someone's on their period" he walked off.

I didn't even care about Harry's stupid comment I was just angry that he couldn't tell I was upset. I sat on a bench to calm myself down I didn't feel like going home just yet.

I knew that the relationship between Louis and his mum would be completely broken by now. They used to be so close. I knew that it wasn't my fault but I couldn't help but feel guilty.

I saw Liam come out of the changing room and make his way towards me. I was beginning to get worried about how he always seemed to be around when I was sad. It was becoming freaky.

"What's wrong" he said and he slumped down on the bench. At least I knew that someone cared.

I didn't answer for a moment as I tired to hold myself together and not cry.

It was working untill Liam put his arm around me. I cried and cried into his chest. I felt bad for making his t-shirt wet. I needed to get everything to do with Louis out of my head. It was helping sitting next to a completely different boy.

"It will be ok, Harry told me what happened" he softly said when I stopped crying.

Hugging liam made me feel safe it sort of felt like the feeling I used to get when I hugged Louis, but hugging Liam felt better. I felt so safe in his arms like everthing in the world didn't matter.

I blinked a few times to remove the water in my eyes so I could look up at Liam. I looked up at his big brown eyes and moved closer to him to study his face. Before I knew it my lips were an inch away from his. He sat there completely still, unsure of what I was going to do.

I didn't think about I much I just did it. I knew he wanted it just as much as I did.

I was kissed him.

At first he just let me kiss him. I got worried that I'd made a mistake and he didn't like me back. But after a few moments he started kissing me back.
