Kimberley's P.O.V

DING DONG

I make my way up to the front door to greet Cheryl, I open the door to see Cheryl, just wearing a simple navy blue hoodie, black skinny jeans and black converse. Wow! She looks stunning even though she's just wearing a hoodie and jeans!

"Hi." She smiles, "Sorry im a little bit of a tom-boy.." she admits, blushing

"Hey, and its okay, I think its cute." I said, she blushed, "Come in."

"Thanks," When she walked into my house or should I rephrase that? into my mansion, she gasped, "wow this place is amazing!"

I chuckled, "I still don't even know why I live in this massive house! I mean, its just one person living here, it gets really lonely."

"I bet it does." She smiles

"So d'you wanna watch a movie?"

She nodded and smiled, "Sure! Any movie it doesn't bother me." I smiled at her, she was acting really normal and not like a crazy person like 'Oh my god im talking to the Kimberley Walsh!' I don't think she's a one to be star-struck

Halfway through the movie Cheryl suddenly speaks,

"D'you like singing?" She smiled at me I nodded

"Yeah I love it - its my dream job," I paused for a brief second, "what about you, do you like football?"

I chuckled as she grinned widely, "Yeah it's awesome! Its the reason im still here today!" she suddenly frowns

"What do you mean by that?"

She stays quiet for a bit and shuffles uncomfortably whilst holding onto her wrist, quietly suffering.

"Is there something wrong?" I asked her, suddenly a single tear fell down her cheek as she shook her head

I pulled up her hoodie sleeve and gasped at the sight

"You cut yourself?" I gasp

She nodded her head slowly, "I-Im depressed......e-ever since my mam died.....m-my dad would hit me....u-until he died aswell....god I was s-so happy...h-he died when I-I was f-fifteen..." she said, holding the tears back and trying to stay strong

"Oh my god...im so sorry..."

She looked up to me and shook her head, "No...no don't be sorry....its my fault that my life's messed up..."

She suddenly hugged me, I smiled, im sure this is the soft Cheryl that no one ever sees

"C-Can I tell you something?" she asked shyly I nodded my head, "I-I like you...."

I smiled, "Don't be shy...I like you too!"

Her head shot up instantly, "Really?"

I chuckled a bit at her reaction, "Yeah, I don't lie Chezza!"

"Chezza? I like it! Chezza!" She smiled and I 'awwed' in my head

We sat together enjoying the long hug until I finally spoke up,

"So did you live on your own or...?"

"No, Nicola was my best friend at the time and she let me stay with her...."

We ended up talking for hours and not concentrating on the movie, I felt like I had known Cheryl for forever.

"Urgh im so sorry, it's literally been 5 minutes and im already pouring my past out--" I cut her off my crashing my lips against hers, she responded and I was glad. she rolled on top of me before pulling back, "Are you sure you want this?"
