Stacy's P.O.V

Deciding to get back to that 'Be the old Stacy' thing, I took off from work. That's right. I took off from work. I figured that to be around happy people, I'd have to not hate them. Not that I hate the people, it's just the happy part that Im not so fond of.

I finally had enough. Enough crying, sitting in the dark, avoiding baths, not moving from the couch, asking myself what I did wrong. And then I realised, I didnt do anything. Nothing wrong. He cheated, not me.

So with that revelation, I got up. Well, that and Jo threatened to throw away all my shoes if I didnt move. And anyone that knows me knows that my shoes are my babies. They will always be there for me.

Ahh, me and my shoes have the perfect relationship.

At least I can manage to make one relationship work.

I havent spoken to Dani, El, or Perri. But then again, they havent tried to make contact with me. Now that I think about it, no one has tried to talk to me or see me. I havent spoken to Harry since the almost kiss. And the other three havent even try to communicate with me.

I miss my gay wads.

But clearly they chose Niall's side in this. Im starting to think Declan and Jo did also. They hang out with them every so often and forget that Im around. Not cool guys, seriously.

Jo and Declan are actually moving soon. A flat a little closer to downtown. A one bedroom flat. Leaving me in the dust.

Which is another reason why I decided to get off my arse today. I have to go house hunting.

I waited until Jo and Declan left to work together, ignoring me as usual, before I got off my spot on the couch, and showered. I know right, finally! I smelled like a homeless person. Oh wait, I am!

After twenty minutes of showering, I got out, getting dressed in a pair of shorts, a tank, jumper, and converse. That's all that fits me right now. Note to self, buy more clothes.

I towel dried my wet hair before fishtail braiding it. Deciding to be a little more active, I burshed my teeth before doing my makeup. Nothing extravagent. Just some concealer, a natural looking eyeshadow, and lip balm. Like I said, nothing extravagent. Like, Im not gonna wear a smokey eye just to go pound the streets of London.

Now that I think about it, maybe I should. Nah.

Seeing it was only seven in the morning, I slid my Ray Bans on my face, and grabbed my laptop before slipping into my Ferrari and driving to Starbucks. I passed Nandos on the way over, and almost teared up. Almost.

Remember, I have to be strong.

I walked into Starbucks, ordering a passion fruit tea and a cookie. For some reason, I dont feel like caffeine today.

I sat in the back, at a small two seater table, sipping on my tea and browsing the internet for flats. After an hour, I gave up. Everyone who's selling a flat are weird, or creepy. Not to mention, the places look like total shit.

That's when it hit me. What I should do.

I plugged my ear phones in the laptop, going to skype. I scrolled down my contacts, scanning for a name before finally seeing the one I wanted. I clicked on the call button, waiting to see their face pop up.

"Stacy! What a lovely suprise, how are you?" Sophia asked.

I smiled at her enthusiasm. The first smile I've cracked in the month since I broke up with Niall. But I couldnt help it. Sophia has a smile, that just makes you want to smile also. "Im fine. Trying to deal with eveything."
