Hold me tight & don't let go.

pain, unforgettable pain.

“Surprised babe?” Vanessa laughed.

Anger boiled up inside of me.

The memory I'd tried so hard to forget flashed back through my mind.

“You look beautiful” Liam smiled.

I blushed and kissed him on the cheek.

“Ready?” he asked.

“Let’s go” I replied taking his hand.

We arrived at the party in about 20 minutes.

It was Niall's 21st birthday party. We were having it a couple of weeks later because we had all been on holidays during his actual birthday.

Everyone else got there around the same time as us except for Niall, it was a surprise party for him.

About 10 minutes later Niall's familiar laugh filled the building before he pushed open the doors and we all jumped up and yelled "SURRPRISSEEE!"

A massive grin spread across his face.

"WOOO! PARTTYYY! THANKS GUYS!" he yelled as he ran forward and hugged each of the boys, gave me a quick hug and ran over towards his family.

"Let's get a drink!" Liam said grinning and pulling me towards the bar.

Later on when all the boys were out dancing like idiots on the dance floor I decided to try go find Eleanor and say hi.

I spotted her on the other side of the room and went to start walking towards her, but someone grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

I truned around quickly and noticed the person gripping my arm.

"Vanessa, you scared me!" I smiled with a small laugh.

"Spencer, I need to talk to you" she replied sternly.

"Okay... what's wrong?" I said slightly worried.

"This is so hard to say..." she started "I can't, sorry I have to go".

I grabbed onto her wrist as she turned to walk away.

"Vanessa, tell me".

She sighed.

I was starting to freak a bit.

"Fine... I really don't know how to put this so I'm just gonna say it..." she said taking a step away from me.

"Liam and I... we slept together" she finished.

Everything stopped for a second. He wouldn't. No, he wouldn't. He couldn't.

"You're lying" I said as more of a question than a statement.

"I'm not; last weekend when he told you he was staying with Niall... well he wasn't... I'm so sorry Spence" she replied simply.

She didn't look remotely sorry.

I felt ill. I wanted to cry.

"Just go.. go away" I said gasping back tears.

I immediately raced towards Niall.

"Whoa, Spence! What's up? Smile its a party!" he said grinning.

"Did Liam stay with you last weekend?" I asked tears filling my eyes.

"What?" he replied looking confused.

"Did Liam stay with you last weekend!?" I said louder.
