-_One Year Later_-


"Hello?" I said, "Yeah I'm coming. I know I'm late but.. yeah yeah I know you don't care." 

"No, you fuck off." I said, as he tells me to fuck off.

I quickly cut the phone, change into my work clothes and tie my now dirty blonde, short hair into a messy bun. I sent my boyfriend a message, letting him know I'm leaving for work.

I get my keys, as my roommate already left and quickly jog to my car. I drive to the cafe and I park my car. I quickly rush inside and see Tyler holding an apron. 

"Get to it." He says handing me the apron. I quickly put it on and get my notepad. 

I look around and see only one customer in the cafe. I sigh and glare at Ty. "You little piece of shit. I thought you said we're packed today!" I exclaim. 

"We will be. It's only like 9 in the morning. Within an hour, we'll be packed." He says, grinning like mad. I lightly hit him, making him fake gasp.

I hear the bell and before I could turn to see who entered, Ty pushes me away.

"I'll get it." he said and walks away, making me shake my head and walk towards the kitchen. 

Here I was, in the sunny land of California. The past year had been absolutely crazy.

I had taken a course in photography, until last month, had gotten a job thanks to Ty, who was in my class for the course, and had moved in with my current roommate.

I grab a croissant and open my phone. I was looking through instagram, when Tyler comes to the kitchen door and yells out, "B! Too many customers. Come help!" and he disappears. 

I walk back towards the cash register and take the bills of the customers, who had cluttered in. By the time, there were many more people helping us.

After about two more hours of work, I finally sit down to have a break. I get myself a cup of coffee and sit down back in the kitchen.

I open my phone and go to messages and see a few messages from my boyfriend, Luke. Luke Hemmings. It was purely coincidental how we met. We met 4 months back, at a Chipotle. Crazy. 

hemmings: gm sunshine

hemmings: can't wait to see youu

I smile and open my Camera Roll, randomly deciding to scroll through pictures.

In the favourite's folder, there were loads of pictures of me, my new friends and Luke. None of my friends knew about my past except about my family. Luke knew everything, since I had decided to open up to him. He promised not to have any judgement of anyone, because he was close friends with all the lads of one direction.

I scrolled down and looked at the memories from about a year ago. There was a picture of Louis and me, a pic that Louis took of me laughing, one of Niall smiling at me, one where me, Jen, Haz and Lou were smiling at the camera. 

A tear slipped out as I quickly wiped it. 

I missed them, I missed it all. Mine and Jen's sleepovers, Boobear's conversations with me. He was my Dodo. He always was.

I hope he remembers me, I hope they all do. I miss Jenny. She was my closest friend in the whole entire freaking world. 

And Niall. How could I forget the love of my life? The boy I trusted with all I had. The man who broke my heart.
