(the next day)

"lexie, come down here." soulla called, and i walked downstairs.

"hey." i smiled to her and dad, the two of them in the living room.

"we're going to see blake and the boys on tour, tomorrow night!"

"oh, we are?" i asked.

"yes! are you not excited?"

well, i don't really think i'm someone he wants to see right now, and he's not exactly my favourite person at the moment, and if that weren't enough, we've just broken up so he slept with some random girl, and yesterday i kissed a boy he was jealous of me being friends with.

"yeah, of course." i forced a grin, "does he know?"

"nope, it's a surprise!" soulla said.

"oh, good." i said.

(the next day)

i put on high waisted, ripped, black super-skinny jeans, and a cute bralette under a crop top, and a pair of classic black vans.

i grabbed my phone and purse, slipping my purse into my back pocket, and carrying my phone as i walked downstairs.

i got into soulla's car with her, my dad not coming, and she drove us to the arena.

when we got there, we went through a back entrance, before being lead to the boys' dressing room, them having just left to go on stage.

soulla and i sat in the dressing room, watching the show from a screen in there, and my heart thumped in my chest in anticipation of blake's reaction when he saw me, as the three of them walked off stage.

a minute later, laughter was heard as the door was open, soulla shouting, "surprise." when the three walked in, blake's face displaying shock as he looked at me and his mum.

"hey, guys. you were great." i smiled, getting up to hug george and reece, blake going to soulla.

"are you guys okay?" george whispered, so only reece and i could hear, regarding blake and i, and i shook my head.

"hey, boys, how are you?" soulla smiled, turning to reece and george, the two of them grinning and answering.

blake sat on the sofa i was previously on, george and reece sitting on one opposite, soulla sitting in her previous chair, so i went and sat next to blake.

as the five of us sat and talked for a while, blake and i barely talked, neither of us looking at the other, and i sighed, not wanting our relationship to be like this.

"i'm gonna go talk to brad's mum, i'll see you guys later." soulla smiled to all of us, standing up to leave the room.

"i'll come, if you want." i went to stand up too, not wanting it to be even more awkward between blake and i.

"no, that's alright. you stay here and chill with the guys." soulla shook her head, smiling to me, "see you, guys." she said, before walking out.

a.n. you weren't expecting thatttt were you
