Sophie's POV:

I get home to find James sat on the sofa with George. George looks like someone has smashed his head in.

"Oh my god, George?" I run over to the sofa and join James and him.

"Don't panic." James says slowly.

"Don't panic? George's face is bruised!" I yell.

I look at George. Tears are slowly falling down his bruised cheek.

"What happened?" I whisper.

"Liv dumped me out of the blue and then I just went out drinking to get rid of the heartbreak. A few fights later and I'm here."

"Are you ok?"

"I don't care about the injuries, I just want Liv back." We talk for a few more minutes before I decide to leave him to rest. I run upstairs and text Ethan.

NEW MESSAGE TO E❣️
*You heard what's happened? x*
*No? Tell me❤️*
*Liv and George broke up😬*
*Meet me at the park. RIGHT NOW.😡*

Wow, his mood changed quickly. I quickly change into the closest clothes I can find and run out of the door, kissing James and George on the way out. I grab my camouflage jacket off the rack in the porch and walk to the park.

Ethan is sat waiting for me at the bench

Ethan is sat waiting for me at the bench. He doesn't look very happy.

"Hey-"

"What the actual fuck?" He yells, interrupting me.

"Woah, what's happened?"

"They broke up?" He's still shouting and slowly coming closer to me.

"Yeah?"

"Liv has been crying all day because of your low life of a brother."

"Excuse me? Liv dumped George?" I yell back.

"So? She's still heartbroken."

"Not George's fault and it's not mine either. Please just stop yelling at me." I whisper.

His arms return back to his side and he takes a deep breath.
"I'm sorry, I just feel bad for her you know?" He says softly.

"So do I but I also feel bad for George. I guess it wasn't meant to be." I sigh.

"At least now we can be together." He whispers, linking his fingers with mine.

My breath hitches and I look at him. I completely forgot that this is what he'd wanted all along. He wanted them to break up. And now that they have, where does that leave us?
