*******AMY'S POV******

I almost ran back to the house in tears, it took everything I had not to take him back. I was so stupid, why did I have to say it was over, he is the love of my life but I can't have someone cheating on me again, it wasn't like Drew to do something like this, all the years I've known him and all the girlfriends he's had, he never did anything like this so why would he do it to me, his best friend?! I ran in the house and slammed the door. I saw a shadow in the corner of the kitchen and froze it wasn't Liam, I knew for sure, Liam slept like a rock, he would never wake up in the middle of the night. I made my way over to the counter and grabbed a frying pan. I held it above my head and the light turned on.

"Marleigh?" in the corner of the room near the light switch stood a tired looking Marleigh, Liam's girlfriend (A/N: her name is pronounced mar-ley in case some of you were wondering)

"Hey Amy" she said wiping her eyes. She wore blue pajama pants, a white tank top and a pink robe, her hair was tied in messy pig tails and she had on bunny slippers.

"What are you doing here?" I asked keeping the frying pan above my head, I don't know why.

"Liam invited me for a sleepover. And what, are you going to beat me to death?"

I lowered the pan and set it on the counter. "he invited you for a sleepover..."

"no, nothing like that, I was in the guest room I heard noises so I came down"

"oh, I didn't know you were here, sorry about the noise, if I had known you were here I would have been quieter, Liam sleeps like a rock"

"it's ok, are you ok, you look like you've been crying"

"ya, I have but I'm fine" I lied, wow, she was actually being considerate, I thought she was a jerk like Liam

"are you sure, do you want to talk about it, girl to girl?"

Wow, ok, this girl was totally different than I thought. "ok, sure, let's go into the living room" I walked into the next room and sat down on the couch. She sat down next to me.

"so, what happened?" she asked

"well, um, the other day, I went to my boyfriend's house to drop off his jacket and I saw him kissing another girl, I just talked to him now" she just sat there staring at me

"and what did he say?" she asked raising one eyebrow

"That it wasn't his fault and a bunch of other crap"

"hmmm, well, from I've seen between you and Drew, that's his name right?"

"yea"

"well from what I've seen between you two, he really loves you, I wouldn't let something like this get in the way of me and Liam, I trust him and I know him too well if he would try to lie to me. If I were you I would let him talk, give him a chance to explain and if it turns out bad then you can move on but you can't just walk away without letting him give his side first" she said simply

I stared at her, my mouth open, she was freaking 13 how would she know all of this

"yea, yea, I'm only thirteen, so what, I gave you advice and I suggest you take it" she said smiling
