Sams POV~

I had arrived home the night before, sleeping on my own was strange, as the past three nights I had shared with Lily. I was worried about her, she said she'd text when she going home but she hadn't. It was already 3pm and she had to be out my 12, so I knew she wasn't in the hotel.

'Sam!' My dad shouted from downstairs 'I've got something for you down here!' I sighed and pulled myself up, bumping into my mum on the way out

'Oh sorry' I said and she smiled

'Do you want me to unpack your things?' I looked at my case and back at her

'I've done most of it, the rest is mainly to be washed' she nodded and went in to sort it out. I went downstairs into the living room

'What's up?' I asked walking round to the kitchen, he was with a girl, a huge smile on his face, I frowned confused as to what was going on, I knew who it was, my heart dropped, she spun around and smiled, holding a cup of tea

'Sam!' She put her drink down and ran into my arms, I hugged her back

'Ah Olivia, what're you doing here? Why aren't you in ireland' she looked up, and held my cheeks in her hands

'I'm your girlfriend. I flew over to surprise you, I'm staying for two months, surprise!' She shouted in her Irish accent, hugging me once more. I tried to smile, but it didn't really work

'I'm sorry, but..' I was about to tell them there was another girl, but they'd ask questions and Lily was already going through enough, I didn't want to add more stress.

'I'm just so happy to see you' I spat out, hoping they didn't notice I was acting strange

'I'm going to put my stuff away, which side of the bed is yours' she said happily grabbing her suitcase

'The left' I smiled as she ran upstairs. I got my phone and tried to call Lily but there was no answer. I text her asking if I could see her, I needed to speak to her.

A week had past. No word from Lily. I didn't even see her out. Olivia was always happy and full of energy. I'd lay in bed at night, watching her sleep, wishing it was Lily. I searched my mums phone book for her home number and called it. Gabby answered

'Hi, it's Sam, is Lily around? I can't get hold of her' I asked

'Hi darling, she's lost her phone, I'll call her for you' I heard her about upstairs and it was quiet for a minute

'Hello?' She was out of breathe

'Hey' I replied

'Sam' she sounded relieved

'Are you okay?' I asked and she took a moment to reply

'Yeah, kind off, I'm just glad to hear your voice, I miss you'

'I miss you to, what do you mean kind off, what happened when you got home?'

'It was weird, the front window was smashed, and when I got in my mum thought I was my dad... he's gone, we don't know where' her voice cracked

'Oh. Lily, I'm so sorry I didn't call earlier, I thought you were ignoring me' I explained feeling bad

'It's alright. I think I left my phone at the hotel but they didn't find it so someone must have taken it' she replied

'Can I come over?' I asked and she said yes, I didn't even grab any things I just got myself and got to her house as quick as I could. She opened the door, she was obviously worried about her dad, I pulled her into a big hug, I never wanted to let her go, she shut the door and kissed me, I quickly pulled away

'My mums not in' she assured me and I pressed my lips against hers once again.

'I'm so glad you're here' she said as we sat down in the living room

'Me too, where's your mum?' I asked and she pulled her legs up to her chest

'She went to meet a friend I think' I nodded

'And your dad? What happened?' She looked down

'He just left, he smashed the window and him, my mum and the boys were all talking about counselling. And when my mum got home, him and all his things, were gone, he's done it before, when they lived in the flat, he left for weeks apparently, I guess I take after him, I just leave my problems behind, I don't face them' I sighed and hugged her

'No you're strong, and so is Andy, he'll be back and things will get better' she smiled and held my hand

'I've got something to tell you' she took a deep breath in and looked worried

'What's up?' She sat up

'I'm late. I was due on the day after we got home, and I've still not had my period' her eyes started watering, I grabbed her hand

'Hey, don't cry, it's okay. It's only a few days, we'll give it another week or so and if you still haven't come on, then we can test it, it'll be fine, don't worry' she smiled and I pulled her into a hug, I felt her crying into my chest.

'Are you sure?' I nodded and held her head

'I'm here, nothing bad is going to happen' we stayed there for a while until we decided to go back to mine, she needed some fresh air.

On the walk over o explained about Olivia and how my dad invited her over, she was okay, she had to be, no one knew about us.

When we walked into the door I heard my dad talking to someone, at first I thought it was Olivia but it wasn't, it was Lily's mum, we went in and they both looked at us, my mum shortly joined

'Where did you go?' My dad asked

'I went for a walk and bumped into Lily' he nodded

'Mum what're you doing here?' Lily asked her mum, all three of them looked at each other, I looked at Lily who was sat across the room from me, confused as to what was happening and why it felt awkward. Olivia came down stairs and sat next to me, her hand on my thigh, she was cuddling up to me, and the awkwardness got worse, Lily kept looking over and I was trying to sit normally.

My mum got up and handed Lily something

'I believe this is yours?' She moved her hand and I saw her give Lily her phone, I frowned as to how she had got it

'Yeah it is, Thankyou, that's weird, where did you find it?' She asked

'That's weird? Not really considering she found it where you left it' Lily's mum replied, I looked at my mum, then my dad, then at Lily

'Where did I leave it?' She frowned

'In the bottom of Sams suitcase from when he went to his 'friends' for the weekend. My heart dropped. I saw Lily's face go red, I felt Olivia's hand drop from my leg and she moved away from me.

'What...' I looked to my side, tears rolling down her face 'you. You were with her. You cheated on me, with her' she chocked, I stood up

'No. We broke up when I left Ireland, my dad invited you over, not me, I'm sorry if you thought we were still together, but we're not, I'm with Lily, I'm falling in love with Lily' I spat out, instantly regretting it, I felt a hand slip into mine, I turned around she was stood in front of me smiling

I smiled and kissed her, holding her cheek with one hand and her hand with the other, before she replied

'I'm falling in love with you too'
