Chapter 27

~ In the car ~

Joe's point of view.

"I'm sorry, Courtney. She's not usually like that." I gulped, looking at her from the mirror. She immediately looked back at me, her piercing blue eyes staring at mine.

"Don't worry, baby. You can make it up to me at home!" She giggled, excitedly. I shrugged it off, not really wanting to carry on the conversation.

"So, how long have you and Lola been together?" I bit my lip, looking round at her while we stopped at a red light.

"Two and a half months." I responded, as the light turned green again and I drove off.

"Are you going to break up with her after this?" I furrowed by brows in confusion. We pulled up outside the apartment and a sat in the drivers seat a little longer to answer her question.

"Of course not! Why the hell would you think that?" She got out the car, walking beside me as I unlocked the front door.

"Well, she said some pretty mean stuff to me and-"

"Can you just stop slagging off my girlfriend?" I shut the door behind her and carried on walking to the kitchen as she sat on a bar stool, her feet kicking against the counter.

"Ooh, feisty! I like it." She said, with a wink. I sighed, pouring a stupid amount of cereal into a bowl and then flooding it with milk. I grabbed a spoon from the drawer, and began picking at the cornflakes while Courtney watched me with her eagle eyes.

At first, she seemed alright, innocent even. Now I'm beginning to understand why Lola despised her so much in the car.

"Why don't we have a little fun while Lola's out?" I looked up at her in disgust, and diverted my attention to to bowl in front of me. She huffed, heaved herself up and walked out the door.

I hope she wouldn't come back, however, much to my disappointment, she returned dragging a suitcase and holdall behind her. I finished my breakfast, and dumped it in the sink, filling it with water and putting in the cups from last night.

When I drained the sink and turned around to get a towel, Courtney was right in my face, literally. And it took absolutely no time at all for her to smash her slippery lips onto mine.

"What the fuck are you doing, Joe?"

A voice said. I stood there in surprise, before finally finding my numbed hands and shoving her off of me. Alfie was stood in the doorway, a horrified expression on his face.

He wasted no time in shoving me up against the wall, holding me by the collar on my shirt.

"How dare you! How dare you do that to Lola!" I stood, shaking, my eyes not being able to meet Alfie's. However, I could tell, without even looking at him, that his face would be bright as a tomato, and his whole body rattling in fury.

"I can't fucking believe you, Joe!" he shouted in my face, his hot breath steaming in my face and neck. I finally brought myself to look at him, my eyes full of guilt and sorrow, whilst his, anger.

"I didn't mean to." Was the only thing I could manage to say. My eyes filled with tears and I could only just blink them back.

"I don't care! You still did it!" By now, Courtney was nowhere to be seen. Not that she would've helped me anyway, this was probably all part of her plan, as Lola had said.

"She kissed me, I-"

"I don't fucking care!" He repeated. He dropped me, unexpectedly, and ran out the door, taking every opportunity to slam any door in his path.

I gulped, tears streaming down my face. It didn't take long for me to actually realise what was happening, and going to happen, and I very quickly became a crumpled mess on the tiled floor.

Lola's point of view.

I picked up a pen, and scrap of paper from Zoe's notebook on the coffee table, and began to write.

Dear Joe,

I'm sorry. I didn't want to go back, but it doesn't feel right being here. Don't worry about me, please. That would be the worst thing you can do. If you need help, just speak to Zoe or Alfie. Don't feel like you're alone, because you're not. You're surrounded by people who care about you. Remember that.

Just know that I loved you, and I'm sorry that that wasn't enough for you.

Lo x

"Give this to him, Alfie. And tell him I'm sorry I wasn't good enough."

Heyoooo

Sad times :(

I'm upset. Jola was great but don't worry! Joe had to act like a massive dickhead for my plans to work ;)

Can I just say, the moment Luke (nearly) cried during 5sos's performance at the vma's, every member of the 5sos fam's hearts shattered into a million pieces. I was a crying mess, just saying.

I might update again tomorrow.. Or Friday haven't decided. If it's friday, The Vamps Plus One or Band Of Vamps will be updated instead.. or both :)
