<Alycia's POV>

I saw Louis come downstairs, I'm assuming from Rae's room. He seemed a little flustered and preoccupied with Niall's things so I didn't ask if anything was okay.

I glanced down at my phone for about the fifth time in the last minute. Why hasn't Brad called or texted yet? He said as soon as I got home he would call.

I sighed a little louder than I had hoped to and threw my phone into the couch opposite me as I pulled my knees in towards my chest. Before I knew it a rush of emotions came over me and I started to tear up.

Brad and I have just been having a rough time. With me being in the UK for my holiday and Brad staying in Australia to focus on his modeling career, he hasn't tried to contact me much. I get that. I get he's busy. But one phone call a month and maybe a text a week wasn't really ideal.

"Leash?"

I didn't look up. I didn't care whose voice it was. I clearly wasn't Brad so I didn't care. Why isn't he here.

"Hey it's okay." Someone pulled me into their chest. I'm in such a fragile state I don't care who it is, I cuddled right up to him. I stayed snuggled up to him until my phone started to ring and I pushed whoever was comforting me backwards as a made a mad dash for my phone.

"Hello? Brad?" I look over to see who was on the couch with you and see Harry lying on the couch looking at me with a concerned face.

I forgot he doesn't have a clue as to what my meltdown was all about.

"Alycia,"

"Yes? Oh my word, Brad where are you? I've been waiting-"

"We need to break up."

My heart sinks. The room starts spinning. I look over to Harry who mouths 'Are you okay?'. I just looked away and tried to focus.

No I'm not okay.

"Brad, wh-what?"

"I said I think we need to break up."

My knees go weak.

I look back over at Harry. I know he sees the tears in my eyes. I know he knows something is wrong. But he can only here my side of the conversation.

"Ummm" I bite my lip as I struggle to talk. "W-why?"

"Leash..."

"Brad, I said WHY?"

I hear him sigh. I know I know he no longer loves me. I know he no longer cares. I know he's over me. I know he just wants me gone.

"I found someone else. Leash I'm sorry, I-"

"How long."

"What?"

"How long have you been seeing her?" I look over at Harry, who is finally starting to pick up on what's happening. He sits up straighter and looks at me.

Nothing. Brad says nothing.

"Brad, how long?"

"Four months..."

I hung up the phone so fast and just chucked it across the room.

I leave and he decides to get a new girlfriend. What a great going away present.

I don't know where my phone is, and frankly I don't care. But I can hear Brad's ring tone going off.

I go into the fetal position and just cry. I hate crying. Can't stand it. I feel it makes me look and feel weak. But today I clearly didn't care. Twice in one day. I think that's a new record. I felt Harry pull me into a hug, and I immediately wrapped my arms around him.

As flirty and cheeky as he normally was, he was the only one I wanted to see right now.

I knew it was getting late, I also knew I wasn't going to sleep tonight.

Harry picked me up and carried me to my room and tucked me in.

"Harry?" I whispered.

"Yeah Leash?" He came back over to the side of my bed and I slid over so he had a place to sit. He clearly got the invitation and sat down right next to me.

"Umm," I didn't know what to ask, I just knew I needed to talk to someone.

Somehow I guess he sensed that and he layed down right beside me. I was shaking so bad so he had to grab my hand.

"Leash, look at me" I could just barely see him from the moonlight that was seeping through my blinds. "You are perfect, Brad doesn't even know what he's missing out on."

I snuggled up to Harry as he played with my hair. He's exactly what I needed right now, someone to comfort me. Someone to be there for me. I needed a friend.
