You couldn't sleep that night. What were you going to say to her? What were you going to do? So many thoughts were running through your mind, and you didn't know what to do. So you decided to distract yourself by looking through Reece's Instagram. You laughed at some pictures and fell in love with others. This man really was your new boyfriend... You saw there were some small videos that were obviously covers, so you plugged in your earphones to listen to them. Your favourite was Here Comes The Sun, where he was playing the guitar. His voice was beautiful, you needed to hear him sing small solos like this more often. You had forgotten about everything, and eventually you drifted off to sleep.

The next morning you woke up with some sort of weight on your shoulders. Oh yeah, you had to talk with Michaela after last night's 'incident'. You rolled out of bed and put on your dressing gown and slippers. You walked out into the kitchen, nerves filling your stomach. Unfortunately, she was sitting at the table, looking extremely tired, holding a cup of coffee.

"Morning..." You said, quietly.

"Right, what did you want to talk to me about." She snapped.

"Right, ok." You sighed, as you sat down.

"Where were you last night? I heard you sneaking out. And I... I saw who you were with." You said, tears forming in your eyes. "Why were you with Charlie? You know how he scarred me, what he did to me. You know how much I hate him. Why Michaela, why?" You cried.

"Y/N, i'm sorry." She said.

"No Michaela, sorry isn't enough. What were you doing out with him? Why?" You exclaimed.

"It would be best if you didn't know..." She sighed.

"I need to know!" You shouted.

"I may have been seeing him, ok?!" She shouted back.

You wanted to run, cry, hide. You felt sick.

"For the last couple of weeks, I have been sneaking out almost every night to go see him in the park. He has been really sweet to me, and I think he is the one. I forgot about everything you told me. He said he had changed! And I believe him!"

You turned around quickly and ran into your bedroom. You threw on a jumper and a pair of leggings and an old pair of trainers. You just wanted to be away from her, away from everything. After getting changed you opened your bedroom door, tears streaming down your face, gave her one last look, before running out of the apartment. It was 9:29am. Where would be the best place to run away to? You knew exactly where, the park. The sun was just peering through the clouds. Your phone was in your pocket, so you decided to call Reece. He picked up instantly.

R – Hey Y/N, you ok?

Y/N – Are you busy this morning?

R – Oh my goodness are you crying? Where are you, I'm coming right down.

Y/N – Are you sure? Don't you have anything going on this morning?

R – Rehearsals can wait. You are more important.

Y/N – I'm at the park.

R – I'm grabbing my coat, i'll be right down, just stay where you are.

Y/N – See you in a bit.

R – see you in a minute.

You collapsed onto a nearest bench and sobbed even harder. He said you were more important than his concert rehearsals. You felt for the first time that someone really cared about you. A few seconds later, you saw Reece running towards you. You stood up, as he ran quicker towards you with open arms. Your bodies collided, and you nearly fell over.

"Don't cry, shhh... it's ok..." He whispered, as you cried into his chest, smelling his cologne.

He lead you to the bench, were you sat next to him. You rest your head on his shoulder, as he wrapped an arm around you. He looked up to you, and used his thumb to wipe the tears that were rolling down your cheeks.

"Hi." He smiled. You ended smiling too.

"Hi." You replied.
