I yawn walking into the kitchen, not excepting see Jade sitting on a bar stool with her head on the island.

Another yawn slips past my lips as I walk to the cabinet that I keep the tylenol in as well as grabbing a bottle of water from the refrigerator before setting them down in front of Jade.

She sits up and gives me a grateful look before opening up the tylenol bottle.

I shuffle through the kitchen, throw the ice cream container in the trash before putting the spoon in the sink.

"I'm sorry I left you last night." I hear Jade apologize quietly.

"It's fine, Jade. I just hope you had fun."

"I did, but I feel guilty." She spoke and I lean against the island near her.

"You cheated on Sam."

"I did." Her voice cracks and then she begins to cry.

"Why the hell would I do that to Sam when I love him?"

I walk over and pull her into, just letting her cry on me. We all make mistakes, all of us.

The best thing to do is to own up to your mistakes and learn from them, because if you keep doing the mistake over and over, then people will realize that it's not a mistake anymore.

Jade continues to cry and I let her. I have to be there for her, even though what she did was wrong.

She's my best friend, my sister.

I glance to the entrance as I see Zayn walk in. I shake my head when he begins to open his mouth.

He nods and continues into the kitchen, running his fingers through his hair and yawning before opening the refrigerator.

Jade begins to hiccup but she stops crying. I grab a paper towel and hand it to her.

She nods as a thanks before sighing.

"I have to tell him, don't I?"

I sit next to her and nod, knowing she doesn't want to. She has to.

"But. how do I break the news to him?"

I watch as Zayn grabs three glasses from the cabinet before pouring orange juice into them.
