It had been about two weeks since I had seen Simon and the boys, purely because I went to visit my parents in Brighton for two weeks since I hadn't seen them or my sister in quite a while, I had been at home for about a few hours when I got a knock on my front door so I went to go and answer it; when I saw Cal I was actually really shocked to see him on my doorstep but none the less I still let him into my house and I took him into the living room where I made him a drink on the kitchen to have. "Why are you here Cal?" I asked him "Zoe and I broke up last week." He croaked "Oh I'm so sorry I knew you liked her so much." I said sympathetically "Thanks Astrid." "Why did you tell me though?" I asked "Well I did want to come and see you earlier and tell you but when I came over to tell you, you weren't here." "Yeah I was at my parents for two weeks." I informed him "Oh that's why I couldn't talk to you, I thought well I still think that you don't like me." Cal said quietly "I don't hate you if that's what you mean, look I'm willing to forgive and forget if you are?" I asked Cal "Definitely." He chirped up happily, I smiled at Cal and then hugged me quickly which took me by surprise. "Since I haven't seen the guys in a while do you want to come with me to go and see them?" I asked Cal as we pulled apart from the hug we shared, "Yeah sure I'll drive us there." "Okay well I'll text Simon that we're coming over then I'll go and get changed." I smiled as I got out my phone to tell Simon that Cal and I were coming over to see them all; he replied with a simple okay and I then walked up into my room so I could change.

"You ready to leave?" I asked Cal as I put my house keys and phone into my little black bag before putting it on my back. "Yeah let's go." Cal smiles as we leave my house and head over to his car. When Cal and I got to the house we both noticed that all of the lights were off which we both thought was strange, I pushed on the door and noticed that it had been previously opened and never shut properly "Guys! Hello?" I called out but I got no reply "Simon! JJ!" I shouted, but again I got no reply, that was until I was grabbed from behind and I noticed a few masked people run out in front of me; I screamed blue murder because I was so scared I also burst into tears I was scared for my life; that was until the masked people started to laugh quite loudly and as they took off their masks one by one I noticed that each one of them was one of the boys in disguise. "We got you so good!" Simon said happily while still laughing, I on the other hand was not I had tears streaming down my face and I was finding it hard to breathe "You found that funny did you! Do you see me laughing?" I asked while in tears "It was just a joke Astrid." Simon said "Simon just calm down yeah?" Tobi asked because I knew that he had picked up that something wasn't right "It wasn't a joke, not to me it wasn't." I wiped away most of my tears and I walked out of the house, passing Zoe on the way I suddenly couldn't breathe at all and I collapsed right next to her.

When I came around very slowly I saw Zoe sitting at the end of the bed smiling me, "You okay?" She asked me "How long was I out for?" I asked her "About three hours." She replied "That's the longest I've been out for." "I know, are you okay though?" "I think so." I smile slightly at her, Zoe then passed me my medicine and I take that with a glass of water and I sit up in the bed slowly "Why are you here Zoe?" I asked her "I needed to collect something from Vikk that's why I'm here." She said "No not here, I mean why are you here in this room looking after me?" I asked "Because I wasn't going to leave you unconscious on the hard floor I had to see if you were okay." "Have you been sitting here for the whole time?" I asked her, and nodded simply "Simon has been too" "Simon?" I asked, she nodded again; and I didn't know exactly what to say but all I did know was that I didn't want to stay angry at her so I hugged her tightly and she returned the hug and we both apologised to each other. We then heard knocking on the bedroom door and that's when we both diverted our attention to it. 'I want to see her Zoe.' I heard Simon say, I started to shake my head "She's still unconscious Simon." 'Don't lie I heard you talking to her, please let me in." He pleaded, I just sighed and stood up as I walked to the door and I opened it to see Simon; Zoe left and waited outside for me.
I walked back over to the bed and sat down when my legs pulled up onto the bed and were crossed as I hung my head down not knowing what to say to Simon. "I'm so sorry Astrid Zoe told me what happened to you." He told me "Whatever I don't want to talk I just want to go home." I say bluntly "I'll drive you home if you want?" He asked "Don't you think you've done enough?" "You're not mad at me are you Astrid?" "What ever helps you sleep at night Simon you just believe it." I say bluntly again as I walk out of the room and I as Zoe to take me home which is exactly what she does; she took me home and stayed with me until I fell asleep in my bed.
