Broken ⇉ Simon Minter [1]

E I G H T

Simon and JJ pulled up outside the club and climbed out the car, looking around for any stumbling drunks. After confirming the drunks weren't Harry, Cal or Rose they travelled inside.

"Harry!" Simon yelled over the music, spotting the younger boy downing a shot. Simon walked towards him but something else caught his eye. Rose was pressed up against the wall with her tongue shoved in some stranger's mouth. JJ noticed too and before he could reach Simon, the older boy had stormed towards the pair.

"What the hell?" Simon raged as he tugged away the stranger like he was nothing. The stranger stumbled backwards and before Simon could grab him, he sprinted away and disappeared in the crowd. Rose looked up at Simon, her mouth hanging open in shock. Simon looked away from where the stranger had disappeared and sent a cold glare towards Rose.

"Harry says you have feelings for me," he growled as he loomed over her small frame. "If that's so true then why are you snogging the face off another man?"

Rose opened her mouth to speak or at least say something, but nothing came out. She was defenceless and alone with Simon looming over her like a tower.

"Well?" Simon snapped which made Rose flinch and bang her head. She winced but Simon didn't move, just kept glaring at her. With one swift movement, Simon turned away and stormed off, grabbing Harry and Cal as he went. JJ tried to stop the blonde, but he wouldn't have it.

"She's drunk, Si!" JJ protested but Simon kept walking, leaving Rose cowering in the corner still. JJ sighed and looked at Rose who was pleading with her eyes for him not to leave her, so he didn't.

"Rose," he said softly as he walked towards her. Rose let out a sob and ran to JJ who led her outside and sat her down on a bench.

"What the hell were you thinking?" he asked her as she wiped her eyes, her mascara running down her cheeks. Her lipstick was smudged and in all honestly, the girl looked a mess.

"I thought I could get over him, Jide!" Rose whined, hiccupping occasionally. JJ sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose, Rose and Simon would be the death of him.

"Well now you fucked it up, Rose. Simon likes you, he wanted you to know that earlier," he told Rose who just sniffled and wiped away a few tears.

"What?" she asked, confused. She swore the other night he'd friend zoned her...

"Yeah now get up, I have to call us a taxi now that Simon's driven off," JJ complained as he pulled Rose to her feet. Rose pouted as she pulled her bomber jacket closer to her chest, the cold nipping at her face and making her shiver like a leaf.

Simon stomped down on the brakes of the car and Harry yelled as he was thrown forward, hitting Simon's car seat.

"Fucking hell," Harry groaned as the 3 boys got out the car, Simon still fuming over Rose kissing that stranger he'd caught her with. Cal, with Harry in one arm, walked up to Simon and threw his arm around the older boy's shoulders.

"Look, Si, Rose was hurting. She thought you didn't like her the way she likes you so of course, like girls do, she tried to get over you by pulling," he said as he and Simon walked in the Sidemen house, Harry being dragged behind.

"Yeah well, it wasn't a good fucking idea," Simon snapped before pulling away from Cal and storming upstairs, leaving Cal with a drunk and now puking Harry.

"You fucking twat," Cal grumbled as puke splattered his shoes, Harry retching.

Simon flopped on his bed and stared up at the ceiling, thoughts pouring through his head like molten lava. All he could think about was Rose kissing that man, the way she was so into it and the way she seemed so happy. Simon squeezed his eyes shut but the feeling of his heart breaking kept replaying over and over until he sat up. He needed to speak to Rose whether or not she liked it or he liked it but it was the only way to save their friendship at this point.

JJ dragged Rose into the Sidemen house and into the kitchen where Cal and Harry were sat.

"What happened?" JJ asked as he spotted Harry on the floor with a bucket that Cal had found.

"Don't even ask, my shoes are ruined," Cal muttered as he pointed out a pair of, what used to be white, brownish shoes. JJ gagged jokingly and helped Rose onto the floor where she fell onto her back and immediately started snoring.

"Simon?" JJ asked as he looked at Rose's body sprawled out on the floor. Cal nodded towards the ceiling and JJ walked off, hoping to find Simon.

"Simon?" JJ called as he swung open the door to reveal Simon in the exact same position.

"Is Rose here?" Simon asked desperately, looking over JJ's shoulder with ease. JJ nodded and before he could speak, Simon was downstairs. JJ groaned and followed him downstairs and watched as he scooped up Rose's sleeping body.

"She's sleeping," Cal chirped from his seat as Simon looked at him with horror. Simon relaxed and looked down at Rose who had woken up, still tipsy.

"Si?" she mumbled as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Simon chuckled and turned around before taking Rose upstairs, passing a pissed off JJ.

Simon placed Rose on his bed and stroked the hair out of her face as she grabbed his wrist.

"Si, stay with me," she whined, and Simon nearly did but the picture of Rose snogging the stranger ran through his mind.

"No, go to sleep Rose," he said before pulling his wrist out of her grasp and tucking her into his bed.She hummed in reply and before anything else could be said, she was asleep.Simon sighed and looked at Rose. What was this girl doing to him?
