My POV-

I was standing at the station saying goodbye to my best friend Nathan, he is moving to London as he has just got a place in a new boyband called 'The Wanted'. I have been best friends with Nathan since we were little, I remember the first day we met, it was my first day at primary school and I was really shy and quiet. I was out on the playground and I fell over on to the ground and I cut my knee. I remember seeing a shadow coming towards me, I looked up and saw a boy standing there, with his hand open to help me up from the ground. I took hold of his hand and got back up on to my feet.

'I'm Nathan,' the boy said with a smile on his face.

'I'm Amy,' I replied. From that day on we became friends. Nathan is always there for me, a shoulder to cry on, I trust him so much, he knows more about me than I probably do. Today, is going to be one of the hardest days of my life. I see Nathan everyday...but as he is moving away, it's going to be difficult to see each other.

'You know I'm just a phone call/text away, I'm still here for you whenever you need me,' Nathan said as he pulled me into a hug. He held me tightly, I was trying my best not to cry but I couldn't hold my tears in for much longer. Nathan realised that I was crying, and he began to slowly rock me, he was trying to comfort me.

'Shh, stop crying Ams, as soon as I get myself sorted you can come and stay with me in London, I know you have always wanted to go,' Nathan said to me as he released me.

'I'm gonna miss you,' I replied as I looked at the ground.

'I'm gonna miss you too,' Nathan answered.

'The 11:15am train to London Euston will be leaving in 5 minutes,' the lady said into the speakers.

'I better go, I'll ring you later, OK?' Nath said as he bent down to pick his bags up, he then walked away onto the train. I stayed until the train departed from the train station.

Nathan's POV-

I felt bad leaving Ams behind but at the same time, I was so excited about starting my new career. It was Amy who gave me the courage to audition, I have a lot to thank her for. She said that if I don't do it, I will regret it...and as soon as she said that I knew that she was right, like she always is. I am going to miss having her round. I got my ipod out of my bag and put Maverick Sabre's album on and closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

My POV-

I finally got home from walking back from the train station, I was still crying, I know Nath hasn't been gone very long but it feels like he has been gone for months. I reach my front door and open it, I get greeted by Olly, my golden labrador, he was such a great dog, so cute. I then made my way into the kitchen to put the kettle on to make myself a cup of tea. I sat down at the kitchen table and put my head in my head and sighed,

'Pull yourself together,' I said to myself. The kettle finally boiled and I made the tea. I took my tea upstairs to my room, I was followed by Olly, I laid down on my bed and Olly jumped up and laid beside me. I then turned my head to look at the picture of me and Nathan which was on my bedside table, I then broke down crying, again.

I then heard a knock at my door, I wiped my eyes and sat up. I noticed my sister, Charly, standing in the door way. We are quite close, I am quite protective over her, she has just turned 16, I am 16 but almost 17.

'Are you okay?' she asked sweetly.

'Yeah sure,' I replied.

'I know you're going to miss Nath but it's not so bad, at least he is in the same country as you and London's not too far,' Charly said as she sat down at the end of my bed.

'I know,' I answered. We were then interupted by my phone ringing, it was Callum, my boyfriend. I sighed and answered it,

'Hello,' I said down the phone.

'I wanna see you,' he commanded.

'I'm fine thanks...thank you for asking,' I replied sarcastically.

'What's wrong with you?' he snapped.

'Nothing,' I responded quietly.

'So, you gonna come round?' he asked.

'Fine, I'll be round soon,'I mumbled before ending the call.

I've been with Callum for just over a year, at the beginning things were amazing, he's a very good looking guy and girls always look and stare at him. The thing is about 4 months ago, he started going out with his friends and getting drunk and doing drugs. He has been really bad the last few weeks and he is not the same guy as he was when we first met. I got myself ready and I made my way to Callums.

Nathan's POV-

The train had finally stopped and I had arrived at London Euston. I grabbed my stuff and got off of the train, I got off the train and I made my out of the station. I got outside and found a man standing with my name on some cardboard, so I walked up to him.

'Hello, you must be Nathan, I'm Martin, I'm basically the taxi for the band,' the man introduced himself.

'We better get going, all the other lads are at the flat,' Martin continued.

'Okay,' I replied with a small smile. I have met the lads a couple of times and I think that we will get along pretty well. I got into the passenger seats in the back of the van and we made our way to the flat.

My POV-

I arrived at Callum's house, he lived in a flat with some of his college friends, Callum is 18. I pressed the buzzer for his flat and he let me in. I got to his flat door and it was already open so I let myself in. Callum was slumped across the the sofa watching some sort of sport on the TV. His flat mates were out so it was just me and him. I went and sat at the end of the sofa, by his feet. He moved over to me to kiss me on the lips, his breath stank of alcohol, he was drunk. He then started kissing me down my neck, I know whenever Callum asks me to go round, it's usually just for sex. I really wasn't in the mood and Callum could to tell.

'What the fuck is wrong with you?' Callum snapped as he pulled away from me.

'Nothing's wrong,' I moaned.

'Yes there is,' he retorted.

'I'm surprised you even care about how i'm feeling,' I replied.

'What is meant by that?' he shouted.

'The amount of alcohol and drugs you take is unreal, most of the time I see you, you are either high or pissed...It surprises me that you remember that I am your girlfriend. Nathan kept warning me about you...I should of listened to him,' I shouted, I couldn't believe what I had just said, I would never of said it but I was feeling brave.

'Don't bring that prick into this, you always bring him up in our arguments, he is a worthless piece of shit,' Callum spat. I got up from the sofa, and I began to make my way out of the flat but I stopped and turned around.

'Nathan is one of the best people I know, he is so kind and caring, would do anything for anyone. He treats me with respect and I prefer to be in his company then yours, as far as I can see your the worthless piece of shit,' I shouted.

'It seems to me that your in love with Nathan,' Callum laughed. 

'What! I'm not in love with my best friend,' I answered him in shock.

'Why don't you just fuck off,' Callum shouted. I just looked at him snd walked out of the flat.

Today has been the worst day of my life.

End of Chapter 1.
