Author's Note: This takes place to when Joe and Caspar were still roommates! If you want an updated version including Byron, or another chapter that features Byron, just let me know!

You and Joe had been dating for about a year now. You were always with him, and always visiting him in London. You had been over to his flat many times to visit, so you have become close with his roommate, Caspar.

Joe's birthday was coming up, and you wanted to throw him a surprise party. You knew that Zoe and Alfie couldn't keep a secret this big, so you decided to confide in Caspar. 

You knew Joe was out of the apartment, and in meetings all day. You headed over to the flat, and headed to Caspar's room. Once you walked in and greeted him, you told him your plans to throw a surprise party for Joe. He agreed to help you with much enthusiasm.

"Okay, Caspar. Remember, you can't say anything to Joe. Got it?" you told him.

He replied, "Don't worry, Y/N. Your secret is safe with me."

You then spent the next couple of hours on Caspar's bed, working with him on the details of the surprise party. Creating the guest list, thinking of party favors, deciding which beer to get. You both were too busy planning that you didn't hear the front door open and close, or Joe's voice calling out for his roommate.

"Caspar! I'm home!" Joe called out. Once there was no reply, he headed down the stairs to Caspar's room to see if he was home.

Once you heard the door to Caspar's room open, you turned your head to see a shocked Joe, standing in the doorway. You quickly hid the papers and pens that you and Caspar were working with.

"Hey Joe." you and Caspar said in unison.

"What's going on here?" Joe asked, looking shocked but annoyed.

"Nothing. We were just hanging out." you replied. You saw Joe lock his jaw as he tried to comprehend what he was seeing.

"On Caspar's bed?" Joe asked, with tension lacing his voice.

"Mate, it's not a big deal. Y/N came over and you weren't here, so I said she could hang out with me until you came back. " Caspar said, trying to ease the tension in the room. 

"Good cover, Caspar" you thought to yourself , hoping that Joe doesn't suspect you plans for him. You could hear you heart beating so loudly that you thought the boys could hear it, too.

"In your bed? With the door closed??" Joe asked, his voice getting louder with each question. 

You could tell he is getting angry, but you couldn't understand why? You had done nothing wrong.

You then asked, "Babe, why are you getting upset? We've done nothing wrong here."

"Oh, I'm sorry." Joe replied, "I didn't know I wasn't supposed to get upset that my girlfriend is on my roommate/best friend's bed with the door closed. My bad." You could hear the sarcasm, and you were not amused. But, you did think that the closed door does make it seem suspicious.

"Joe. There is nothing going on here." Caspar interjected.

"Whatever. Just don't let the door hit that sl*t on the way out." nodding his head at you, then storming off to his room, slamming the door behind him.

You just sat there, mouth ajar. You couldn't believe what Joe had just said. You couldn't believe that he called you that. He had always said he would never call you names like that. You just couldn't believe anything that just happened.

"Y/N?" Caspar said, trying to examine your emotions to what had just been said.

You looked over at him, tears falling from your eyes. Caspar took you into his arms and help you there as you cried. He would try to soothe you by saying things like "He doesn't mean it." or "It's okay."

After you cried all your tears out, you sat up. You looked at Caspar, who was now raging. You could see the fire in his eyes, and the anger in his face. He got up, marched into Joe's room, and slammed the door behind him.

You just sat there on Caspar's bed. You tried to hear what was being said in the other room. More like what was being yelled. You could hear the raised voices, but couldn't make out what was being said.

After about ten minutes of yelling, you heard the room next to you go silent. You then heard Joe's door open. You didn't know who to expect, or what to expect after the yelling.

Caspar came in, and sat beside you on the bed.

"Joe wants to talk to you. He is waiting in his room."

You looked at him nervously. You didn't know if you wanted to go see Joe after what he called you. Caspar seemed to have sensed your nerves, and then said "I talked to him. You will be okay. And if not, I'm right in here. You just come get me if things aren't okay."

You nodded, and gave Caspar a quick hug. Then, you proceeded to Joe's room.

You stopped at the doorway, peering into the room. You saw Joe, sitting at the end of his bed, slouched over his knees. He looked up at you, and you could see that he had been crying. You wanted to run to him and see if he was okay, but then remembered what he had called you. You stood there and waited for Joe to ask you in.

"Y/N, can you come in and shut the door behind you, please?" he asked.

You shook your head, "I'm not shutting the door. I don't think I can trust you with the door shut."

"I understand. Can you come sit,  please?" his voice quiet, but cracking.

You walked in and sat at the other end of the bed. You didn't want to sit beside him after the horrible name he called you.

Joe turned around and looked at you. "Y/N," he started. "I'm really sorry about what I said."

"I never thought you would say something like that, Joe. You always said you would never call me names like that, or hurt me in any way. That really hurt me, Joe." you were on the verge of tears, again.

"I know. And I'm truly sorry for calling you that."

"Why did you say that in the first place?"

Joe took a few seconds to reply, and looked like he was ashamed of himself.

"I only said that because I thought you were cheating on me with Caspar, and I was afraid that I was going to lose you." he then had tears fall down his face.

You couldn't control yourself anymore. You moved over to him and pulled him into your arms.

"Joe, you know I love you, and only you. I would never cheat on you. There is no guy in this world who could compare to you."

Joe pulled you into him, tightly. "I know, Y/N. I was being a pr*ck. Caspar came in and told me why you were in there with him. I felt so stupid, and so sure that I had messed everything up between us, when you were just trying to surprise me."

You smiled, slightly. "Well, I guess the cat's out of the bag now, huh." you giggled. You then lifted Joe's chin, so you were looking into his eyes.

"Joe, I love you. Next time that you have an issue, just talk to me. We can work it out together."

He smiled and answered, "You got it, babe. Sorry again."

"It's okay." you replied, pulling him in for a soft kiss.

"So, since I ruined your surprise for me, can the three of us plan a party for me, together?" Joe asked.

"Sure thing." you replied, smiling. You pulled him up and headed to Caspar's room to plan Joe's party for his upcoming birthday.
