I fell in love online with a singer,
I’ve been checking her page on Myspace every day without fail, messaging her.
But there’s one minor detail that I forget to tell, I’ve never met the girl.

I feel lame, speaking to her every day on Facebook ain't the same.

OMGZ, LOL, :), XX - How has my love life come to this?
I used to think of myself as a bit of a ‘Jack the Lad’,
but now I’m tapping chicks by Email and it’s fucking sad.
She makes me ROFL when I chat to her on MSN
and I’m sad when she gets picture comments from other men.
When I see that little box pop up on Facebook chat, I change my status to a <3,
she probably thinks I’m a twat.

I awoke to Sarah shouting for Kate, who was fast asleep in my arms, to check her phone. "Seriously Kate. Wake. Up!" she shouted for the billionth time. Reluctantly I opened my eyes to see what was wrong, I could see Kate groggily opening her eyes, "Where's the fire S?" she complained sleepily. "My idea was the biggest fucking mistake ever Kate I'm sorry, just look at your phone and see." Oh no I could see what was about to happen here. Slowly Kate reached for her phone which was on the bedside table, she held it out in front of me, "Will you look? I can't do it," she asked in a small voice which reminded me just how vulnerable she was right now and how I couldn't take advantage. I took a deep breath before taking her phone and nodding.

I looked at her Iphone the lock screen said she had 267 twitter messages and numerous Facebook notifications. I unlocked her phone and checked her Inbox on Facebook whilst Kate pressed her face into my shoulder, usually this would make me happy but I could sense her fear of being judged and I didn't like her being scared. I read through her inbox seeing messages filled with hate and jealousy, I couldn't believe people could be so cruel throwing words like 'slut', 'ugly' and 'bitch' at someone as beautiful, kind and vulnerable as Kate. Then my eyes ran across a very hateful message, "Baby who's Ellie Marcus?" When I said this name both girls turned with a look of fear as their faces drained of colour. "THAT FUCKING BITCH WHAT DID SHE SAY!?!" Sarah screamed her fear now turning to anger. Who was this girl? "When we were in year ten she spent the whole year making my life a misery just because someone had overheard me saying I thought she was annoying, I have a burn on my stomach from where she threw scalding coffee at me- she never bothered me after that incident luckily," Kate said quietly as tears silently trailed down her cheek, I pulled her into my lap and stoked her hair soothingly, "what did it say? I want to know and don't try protecting me from it," she said before I could start ranting about how much I hated what this girl had done. "It's not pretty," I sighed. "Just read it," Sarah and Kate demanded at the same time. "Okay here goes," I said looking back at the phone screen.

"'Hey Its Ellie Marcus, remember me? Ya know the girl you got kicked out of school when really it should have been you for being such an ugly little whore who just thought she could walk around with her ditzy friend Olivia who was always too good for her. Anyway I have an advantage now your nice cosy pictures are going on twitter... Lets see what the sixers have to say about you fucking their drummer...' Do you want me to continue?" I asked when I saw her reacton to the pictures being posted on twitter. "No I get the picture, are all the messages like that?" she asked into my neck. "Mostly, they're all jealous because someone will have posted that i'm in a band, but there is a nice one from Olivia or at least I think its her, Olivia James?" "Yeah thats her, read it please?" I nodded I was glad she was one of the few who had left positive messages. "Right this is it, 'Dear Kate, I'm so glad you have found happiness so quickly, Dan is made for you. I'm so sorry I stole your happiness with Jamie and I feel so guilty! My mum told me what he did to you (she was talking to your mum) and I finished him- we both had a lucky escape! I still love ya sistah, I hope we can sort it out over coffee sometime and don't take any shit people are giving you about you and Dan they're just jel babe. Thank him for being there for you when I wasn't, again I'm so sorry Livs xxxxxxxxxx." I finished and saw that Kate was finally smiling, I smile back glad to see she was happy.

"Pass me my phone babe," she asked filling my heart with warmth when she said 'babe'. I passed the phone and she thanked me before typing her reply. 

~Kate~ 

Dan passed my phone and I started replying, I really wanted to give her another chance, I read over my reply which read:

Thank you for your support it means a lot, I'm happy with Dan and in a way I'm thankful you were so selfish. I'm glad you broke up with him I should have when he hit me the first time but I loved him, as you'll see in the picture I posted, lets face everyone has seen it Sarah's worst idea yet it was actually meant to get back at you as I assumed you were still with him so it ended up back firing. Anyway I want to give you a chance to make it up to me because you were the bestest friend I ever had so coffee will be great tomorrow our usual place 3pm. xxx

After re-reading and getting Dan to check it various times I clicked send and didn't wait for a reply.

~Dan~

After Kate had sent the reply we started tackling the twitter issue, "I don't even want to read them, I'm not going to be hurt by people who don't know me or even properly know you, we should just tweet and tell them to respect our wishes," she said looking happier now that she had spoken to Sarah. "Good Idea, I'll get my Phone!" I got my phone and began composing the tweet that would hopefully stop all the hate:

Dear Followers I'm shocked that  most of you can't be happy for me and @KateInAWood, If you don't have anything nice to say the please don't say it and the people who continue to hate I don't consider you a fan, Thanks x

"Now that that's done I think we should just forget social networking sites for a while," I said and reached out to squeeze Kate's hand. "Hey S, do you mind if..." Kate started before Sarah cut her off. "Yep I'm going for a walk, see you in a bit." "Thanks" Kate replied. "Hey is it okay if we don't go out tonight, i'm stressed out?" Kate asked, I didn't really want to go out anymore either. "That's fine, I can't be bothered either." Slowly I leaned down and kissed her gently, I didn't want to go too far just cheer her up a bit. Fire rushed through my veins as she pulled away and started kissing my neck, I moaned as she made a love bite on my neck. Our lips crashed back together with a fiery passion, I knew I would never stop loving this girl. Then my phone rang, ugh why now. Kate pulled away, "You should get it, could be Important," she shrugged. I leaned over and answered my phone, "Oh hey " I smiled when I heard my sisters voice, we had always been close. "Hey Dan! Heard about your new girlfriend, when do I get to meet her?" She asked feigning anger. "You can come over tomorrow, but I've gotta go," I told her before ending the call desperate to spend time with Kate. "Who's coming over tomorrow?" she asked coming to sit beside me. "My sister, Amy."
