We've been at the club for about an hour and everyone but me is wasted, I'm sitting in the booth just watching everyone dance not wanting to dance myself. I look round the club and I catch sight of Simon and our eyes lock instantly, he was already looking at me, I smile slightly before looking away as he's dancing with Emily.

I can't lie Simon doesn't look happy, I wish I was able to change that but it seems he's under control by this random girl, who even is she?

"Millie come dance!" Freya yanks me to stand, she pulls me towards the dance floor where we join Jide, Josh, Tobi and Ethan. We dance for a while, the music taking over my body as I throw my hands in the air, it's a strange feeling being sober in a club but I'm actually enjoying it more than if I was drunk. I'm in-between Jide and Tobi and I will say the three of us make quite the dance group, honestly we were just taking the piss with our dancing.

"Here he comes," Tobi shouts in my ear, I look at him utterly confused but he nods his head to behind me and I turn, Simon.

"Can I talk to you?" I nod shyly and we head outside the club so we can actually hear each other, we stand round the corner from the main door and I feel like my arms are going to freeze off.

"Millie I am so sorry," he mumbles as he shuffles on his feet, he won't make eye contact with me, weird.

"Simon I'm just so confused and hurt," I frown and look up at him, moving closer to get him to look at me but he still refuses.

"Simon look at me," I whisper placing my finger under his chin, tilting his head to face me.

His pupils are massive, his eyes wide. Surly not. I feel my self getting angry, he's on drugs cocaine I'd presume and I bet it was that Emily bitch that gave him them. "What have you taken." I spit.

"W-What do you mean," he stutters, he's been caught out. I sigh and turn around to head back into the club, I don't want anything to do with this boy right now.

"Millie wait!" He grabs my hand and pulls me back to him, leading me to an ally way next to the club so we can actually talk.

"What has happened to you Simon.." I almost whisper, not being able to look up at him. At this moment in time all I want to do is go and slap that bitch, how dare she come into Simons life and try to ruin it. "Millie I fucked up."

"Damn right you fucked up! Why did you never text me back or phone me? I thought things were going well for us Simon." Tears fill my eyes but I refuse to let them fall, I'm not showing weakness not now. He gently grabs my face tilting it up so he can see, he frowns and closes his eyes briefly.

"I don't want to be with Emily, I'm not with her she was just there and now she won't leave me alone," he opens his eyes and we just stand, looking at each other in silence. I'm not sure what I should say, should I say something about Emily or the fact that he didn't get back to me at all.

"Tell her to fuck off," I mumble causing Simon to laugh lightly. I smile weakly and roll my head back in frustration, I thought I was going to come back from Manchester to have Simon waiting for me and it was and still is a shock that this Emily girl is here but if he doesn't want to be with her he doesn't have to be.

"Listen Millie I want to be with you, I-I don't know what happened when you were away but I regret everything that did. Please.." his voice cracks as if he's trying to not cry, my heart hurts for him. He's a boy who's lost his way, he doesn't know what he's doing but he wants to figure it out.

"Simon you need to deal with Emily first before anything can happen with us." I frown, unfortunately it's the truth he can't just say he wants to be with me when he's with someone else. As much as I dislike Emily it isn't fair to just ditch her on a night out, no girl would like that.

"I will, promise you'll still want me.." he frowns causing me to frown. the way he says that makes my heart hurt, he knows he's messed up but he wants to fix it and I appreciate that.

"of course Simon," I stand on my tiptoes and I plant a small kiss on his lips, he seems surprised but he grins like a child who's just gotten some sweets.

"C'mon everyone will be wondering where we were," Simon smiles down at me, placing his hand on my lower back he leads me out of the alleyway and through the doors of the club.

We go straight to the booth where the guys are all dancing, I see Emily trying to talk to Freya and Sarah but they don't seem interested and it makes my night seeing them ignore her.

"I'll see you later." Simon whispers in my ear before heading off towards Emily.

I turn to see Jide and Tobi staring at me, Jide motions for me to go see them and I oblige. I sit next to them and they both look at me as if they are waiting for me to say something.

"What?" I laugh at the two boys, they both laugh with me and for a minute I forget everything and just enjoy being with good people.

"What happened with Simon?" Jide shouts so I can hear him over the music, I turn to him and smile sweetly, "nothing," I shrugged and stood up, Simon has taken Emily away so I decide to go dance with Freya and Sarah and we dance for he rest of the night.
