-Katie-
I stared at my phone screen for what felt like ages before actually unlocking it, I had gained thousands of followers in the space of two minutes. And also hundreds of mentions, I eventually found the reason why.
@GeorgeUJWorld:
pizza time with @katie_xo ! Should probably stop pulling these faces...
My mouth formed the shape of an 'o' before I looked up at George, who just had a cheeky grin plastered on his face.
"George!"
"What?"
"Why did you tweet that?"
"Because I felt like it, what's the problem?"
"Seriously?! Have you not heard of fans? They assume things George, sometimes not good things, what is your manager going to say?"
"To be honest, I really couldn't care less, why should I have to listen to what everyone else says?"
I ignored him, not knowing what to say. I stormed up to the bedroom and sat on the end of the bed, scrolling through all of the replies to George's tweet.
'Who is she George? She's stunning!"
'Is she your girlfriend?'
'Oh my gosh she is so pretty!'
Most of them were okay, but there were a few that I didn't want to read.
'George I hope that isn't your girlfriend'
'What on earth are you doing with that tramp?'
'You could do so much better George'
That last one was the worst, not because it was rude, but because it was the truth. Of all the girls he could have had, he chose me, why? He could have chosen the most gorgeous girl he wanted. He was going on tour tomorrow anyway, and would probably find some other girl he wanted to be with. For some reason I curled up into a ball and lay down on the bed, covering my face with my hands, catching the tears. There was a knock on the door,
"Babe are you alright?"
I sat up immediately and wiped away my tears, I placed my phone on the bedside table before slowly making my way to the door. My cold fingers gripped the handle, as I turned it I looked down to the ground. As soon as I opened it George pulled me into a tight hug, not saying anything. We stayed there for a moment, just enjoying eachothers company. Eventually George pulled away and cupped my cheeks with his hands, looking down at my tear stained face.
"Babe I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have tweeted anything"
"George its not that"
"Then what is it?"
I hesitantly walked back over my phone before picking it up and passing it to George. He looked at the screen I had left it on.
'You could do so much better George'
He read the tweet and shook his head.
"Babe do you honestly believe this?"
I looked at the ground again before gently nodding my head.
"Oh my god babe, I could never have better than you"
I pulled my best attempt of a smile, to show him I understood, even if I didn't, and I knew I wasn't good enough.
"We still have some pizza downstairs" George whispered in my ear
"I'm not hungry anymore" I responded
"Oh okay, shall we just go to bed then?"
"Yes please"
We both got changed into our onesies and crawled into bed next to eachother. George quickly drifted off to sleep, but it was obvious I wasn't going to get much sleep tonight. The tweet that girl had sent kept repeating in my head, and it didn't help that George would be leaving tomorrow. I tried to get out of bed without waking George, I gently lifted his arm of my waist and slid my leg from between his. I wandered through to the kitchen to get a glass of water. I took it back into my bedroom leaving George alone in his, I decided George would get more rest if I wasn't there fidgeting all night, and he needed it if he was going to be leaving early tomorrow morning. I pulled the covers over my body and tried to forget everything.
*The next morning-6:30am*
-George-
My alarm went off beside me so I reached behind me to turn it off. As my eyelids opened I panicked when I realised Katie wasn't in bed beside me. I pushed the bed covers off me and rushed next door, where thankfully Katie was lying asleep. But why had she slept there in the first place? I dragged my feet through to the kitchen and put the kettle on to make a coffee. Thoughts were roaming through my head about what possibly could have happened that made Katie want to sleep somewhere else. Had what happened last night really bothered her that much? She said she was fine with it. I pulled two mugs out from the cupboard and made the coffee. I took Katie's coffee into her room and placed it on the table next to her bed. I gently kissed her forehead and brushed the hair out of her face tucking it behind her ear. Her eyelids slowly fluttered open, she smiled when she realised I was sat infront of her.
"Morning coffee for you babe"
I lifted the mug up and she sat up in bed, I handed her the mug before crawling over so I was sat next to her.
"Are you going to tell me why you left me alone in bed last night?"
"Oh uhm. I couldn't sleep and I didn't want to wake you up when I was fidgeting"
"Babe I don't care if you wake me up, but why couldn't you sleep?"
She looked down at her hands gripping tightly onto her coffee mug,
"I wa-was thinking about t-that tweet"
I slowly brought my hand down to rest on her thigh. I can't believe she thought she wasn't good enough.
"If you think you don't deserve me, then your wrong, if anything I don't deserve you okay?"
"Okay"
"Hey, I have to go in a bit, so I have to go and get all of my things, you go back to sleep okay its early, I will Skype you later remember"
I leaned down to kiss her before stumbling off the bed. She turned back over onto her side and by the time I had left, she was in a deep sleep. I smiled to myself before walking out of the door to meet the boys. Although I did hope she was going to be okay.
