I wake up from the natural light coming through the tiny window, I roll over and hide my face under my pillow, the warmth on my exposed shoulders is nice and warm, I lift my pillow to look over at Michael, but he isn't there, he has just gone to get something, I promise myself but memories of Jade and Ashton warning me that'll he'll leave me flash in my mind.

I get up to get ready for a lazy day but I fall to the floor, my legs still remember last night and they're struggling to stand, I crawl to bathroom where I sit in the shower, letting my tense leg muscles relax.

I put on panties and one of Harry's jumpers before grabbing a heap of junk food and watching movies all day, all I want right now is to eat chocolate, watch love movies while cuddling Michael but I only have chips, the movies are all action and Michael isn't here. I don't have to go into work because I negotiated that I didn't have to work while I had my period because cramps, my boss was happy to oblige because the police check the bar once a month for about three days so he gets them to come in when I'm not there.

"CRAPS FUCKING HURT!" I yell, tilting my head back and lifting my hips up before falling back down. I reach over for the almost empty chip packet to get some of the flavouring from the bottom, there's a knock at the front door, I'm in too much pain to move so I call out, "come in!"

"Hello?" a slightly familiar British accent says, I spin around, a curly haired boy stands there and for a moment I think it's Harry until I realize it's not.

"Brad?" I ask, still not certain.

"Lil?" He sounds as confused as I am, "are you okay?"

"Yeah, why? What are you doing here?" I haven't seen Brad in almost a year, I don't know why, we kind of stopped talking eventually and I guess he moved on with his life, he looks a bit different but he is still recognizable and damn he is still an adorable little shit.

"I was just walking past when I heard someone screaming."

"Oh yeah, sorry, that was me," I didn't think about who could hear me when I called out.

"Are you alright?"

"Period pain."

"Oh right, um..."

"Come in, I would get up if my uterus wasn't hurting me to the point I can hardly move."

"Wow, you haven't changed," Brad laughs, closing the door behind him and walking over to sit next to me, I watch him as he grabs the remote control to play the movie that I paused due to boredom.

"Lil I'm home!" Jade calls out, I sit up, rubbing sleep from my eyes, I must've fallen asleep, I look around, it takes me a moment to remember where I am.

"Finally awake, you've been asleep for seven hours," Brad says, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear.

"You didn't have to stay," I groan, climbing off of him.

"You have cool movies and you were kind of using me as a human pillow," he replies before calling out to Jade, "she was asleep!"

Jade walks in, "wh- will you excuse us for a moment," Brad nods and gets up before walking into another room, "who's that?"

"Brad, remember, the guy I made out with a lot and you use to think we had sex but we didn't"

"Oh I remember, I still think you did by the way."

"Brad! Did we ever have sex?!" I call out.

Brad walks back in before answering, "nah, you gave me a hand job and I fisted you but that's as far as we went," he says casually.
