It had been a month since the London trip. I hadn't heard from Harry at all, the only trace of him in my life was the constant gossip over every website I did my research for work on, claiming he had moved on with some American model he had never mentioned.

Although he had never confirmed it himself, and there was no photograph's of them together, she had told some newspaper they were seeing each other.

He'd moved on by the look's of it, and I was happy for him in a weird way. We couldn't be together, but that didn't mean he couldn't carry on with his life. I still wanted to be friends with him, I'd always want him in my life, but I couldn't force myself on him when he clearly didn't want a bar of me.

Today was Valentines Day, and the first of two 1D show's in Melbourne. Everyone was in town again, and as much as I wanted to take up Sam's offer of spending the night with her at the show, I couldn't bring myself to watch Harry on stage, knowing he wasn't mine anymore. I wasn't ready for it.

This Valentines was meant to be special, we were meant to be together to make up for last year's disastrous events. It was funny how much could have changed in a year. Three of the 5SOS boys were now in happy stable relationships, Angus and Gemma were over in England happy together, and I was alone, without the boyfriend I had a year ago.

I decided tonight I would just stay in and watch some romantic comedies that would end up making me cry, while pigging out on Ben and Jerry's ice-cream until I fell asleep. Perfect Valentines Day.

"What do you mean you can't go? This is so last minute, we need you to cover it, you should be there in like thirty minutes!" Ava was on the phone freaking out over something. She looked stressed and frantic pressing her palm to her forehead trying to calm herself down.

"I understand it's out of your control, I'll find someone else to go over and do the interview. Get back safe!" She hung up and calmed herself down. I walked over to check on her, hoping I could help in some way.

"Ava are you okay?" I placed my hand on her shoulder.

"Jen hey, yeah look I'm a bit under the pump right now I'm going to have a nervous breakdown in a second!" She started fanning her face.

"What's happened?" I asked, leading her over to the sofa's in the corner of the office.

"That was Matt, he covered an event over in Sydney last night and something's going on with his flight or something, basically he won't make it back until later tonight, and I need him over at the stadium in like twenty five minutes! We have a major interview set up, and no one to cover it now!" Matt was another presenter in the office, he covered all the major celebrity interviews for the network.

"Well who is it? Maybe I could cover it for him?" I'd grown a lot of confidence since the 1D tour, and I felt more comfortable interviewing celebrities now, so I felt confident in volunteering myself.

"No, no way I'm not sending you!" She shook her head.

"I can handle it Ava!" I pleaded with her.

"Jen, no, I'm not doing that to you!" I didn't understand why she didn't have the confidence in me to let me do this interview, but it only made me more determined to prove to her I could do it.

"Do you not trust me or something? I think I've proven I'm more than capable of conducting an interview by now!"

"It's not that! You know I think you've been doing an amazing job, and if it were anyone else I would let you do the interview in a heartbeat, but trust me, you don't want to take this one!" Why wouldn't I want to take this interview? I was confused and for the life of me couldn't think of who...wait...
