"Hi Jams" I was aware I said jams instead of James, I tried to say James but it was more difficult than imagined.

"wow, jams is a new one" he chuckled.

I just had to chuckle because I had Kayla's eyes burning into me on one side and Brad's on the other side. I was on edge, I didn't know what to do so I left the room.

I stood outside the house away from everyone's sight. I text Kayla.

To: K xoxo

Text me the details I'll meet you there, I can tell you don't want me there already so I will take my time due to the circumstances.

Sorry.

Xoxo A.

The party was only at the studios which I knew pretty well and wasn't too far away. I felt horrible, I know how much it means to Kayla for me and Brad to make up and be friends again and if not possibly a couple but we all know that won't happen because I won't let myself get into the trap of falling in love once again. 

My feet were killing me, I only walked out of the house and turned a corner. I heard a car door shut and a few voices indicating they have left. I felt horrible.

I looked at my feet in guilt. I'm going to be the bigger person here and speak to Brad. Even if I hate it. 

The saying goes, what goes around must come back, it's true. It's been two years and now he is back in my life.

I feel like I love him. I want to love him, he has such an adorable face, his eyes make me melt and his smile makes me weak at the knees. It hurts to love him still. So, I can't. I am going to do everything I can to not fall in love with him again.

Walking along the pavement in London in bare feet isn't the best idea I have ever came up with but I decided that's how I will walk.

It was dark and it was only around 7:30pm. I felt strange, it was like a fire that had died down sparked inside me again. Why? I don't think I will ever know.

On my own, walking down the streets of London, I saw a poster for the boy's new album. I'm proud of them you know. They have come so far, it's unreal. I don't know how they do it. They go every day seen by fans, paparazzi and constant travel. It's like they never get a break anymore, but they love it, so I guess they are used to it by now.

I remember when I met Brad. It was a day kind of like today. A party but this time it was a solo party instead of a get together.

*****

"Kayla!" I called after my friend of something like 6 years. 

We were at a college party and she stole my drink and ran off with it.

I went to run after her until a large hand grabbed my hand preventing me to move any further. At this point Kayla had stolen the only drink I had that night. 

"Excuse me, sir" I said politely as I tried to get out of this stranger's grip.

He was a tall bloke, muscles and all. I knew who it was. Dan Edmanson the captain of every sports team in college. 

"I believe you're the only person who is attractive who I haven't slept with miss winters."

I gulped a bit loudly as he pressed himself upon my body trying to grind on me. 

"Dan, I'm not interested!" Struggling to get out of his grip.

He tried to remove my top. This movement was stopped by a boy with curly brown hair. He punched him, really hard. I mean that hard his hand cracked.

I fell to the floor but my arm was still in his grip which scared me a lot.

"I believe she said that she wasn't interested Daniel" he said through gritted teeth.

Everyone stopped what he was doing and Kayla came back. 

I recognised the boy, he was in my psychology class. Bradley Simpson, smart guy and he has his own band that were pretty good. I never spoke to him before.  He was quite cute, not going to lie.

"What's that Simpson? Your defending a girl? Your helping a girl, surprised she never hit you" he laughed and so did his friends.

The next thing you see is Brad swinging for him and all his friends trying to stop him from doing any more damage.

Dan is also 6ft and Brad is way smaller than him and he managed to hit his jaw out of place. 

"You're getting it now Simpson" Dan say swinging back at him.

The fight went on for ages, people were videoing it, posting it on social media etcetera.

Brad was wining somehow but the fight was broken up by a neighbour phoning the police and them coming into the house. Both of the boys were taken to hospital because they were pretty bashed up.

"Kayla...I can't believe he did that for me..." I was shocked. No one has ever done that for me before which was quite scary.

*****

I remember sitting with Brad until he was discharged and walked him to his car, to this day I can't believe he did that for. He no joke save my virginity. That's a weird thought.

I looked up into the night sky and I felt a drop of rain fall on my face. Shit! I quickly picked up the pace so I don't get caught in the rain because I was almost there. I ran into the building and found the party relatively quickly but I was late.

Well at least I was sober now...But I wish I wasn't.
