He's already gone out to band practice but I decided to have a lie-in for once. I get out of bed, put my slippers on and head downstairs. I should probably do some cleaning today, I'm still finding bits of party popper from the party a few weeks ago!

After some breakfast I get a shower and put some fresh clothes on. What should I do first? I'll work my way down the house and I'll start from upstairs. I go downstairs and get my cleaning appliances.

I'll start in the bedroom, that doesn't really need much cleaning anyway but I haven't bothered to do it in months! I start in the en-suite and scrub down the shower and clean the mirror. I grab a plastic bag to empty the bin in the bathroom. I pry the lid off of it and tip it upside down into a carrier bag.

As I'm tying the handles something catches my eye. I drop the bag on the floor in sudden shock and have to sit on the toilet as I start to feel a mixture of almost being sick and uncontrollable shaking. It was a condom wrapper.

When I dropped the bag it fell out next to the shower and I can't stop staring at it. A few seconds later after trying to calm myself, I walk over to it and pick it up. There's a condom inside. A used one. We don't use condoms, I'm on the pill.

I drop it immediately and run out of the bedroom, downstairs and into the studio. I don't know why I'm in here but it's just where I happened to go. I lock myself in and can't stop myself from crying. Please don't let it be true. Please, please I know he would never do this to me. He loves me, he's amazing, he's loyal. Please don't let it be what it looks like.

I don't know how long I've been crying for but I hear Luke coming back with the other boys too. They're heading towards the studio and I physically can't stop crying. If I try to leave, they'll see me. They walk in laughing and immediately stop when they see me looking an absolute mess standing in the middle of the room.

"Oh my god what happened?" Ashton asks in a concerned tone. They all rush towards me and ask what's the matter, even Luke's joining in.

"Babe, what did you do?" Luke asks, cradling me in his arms. I shove him away from me and turn to face him.

"What did I do? How the fuck can you say that?" I yell at him through my tears. He stands there and looks genuinely shocked, as do the other boys.

"What are you talking about?" Luke asks, his voice trembling. He leans in to give me a hug.

"Don't you dare touch me you fucking cheater! I found the condom. You had sex with her didn't you? When you had your birthday party, you slept with that bitch. You invited her round because you thought I wasn't going to be home but that didn't stop you. You even took pictures and expected me to think that it was just some of your crazy fans trying to break us up. How could you do this? You told me you loved me." I couldn't stop myself. It just came out my mouth with no warning. I feel like I'm about to throw up.

"I think you need to calm down a bit and-"

"This has nothing to do with you Calum so please just leave this between Luke and I," I snap at Calum. I feel a bit guilty for yelling at him but I don't need an audience. After that Michael pushes Ashton and Calum towards the door and they all leave quietly.

"All I want is for you to tell me the truth. I'm giving you one chance to do it, and I want the whole truth." I say sternly to Luke. I can't see properly because of the tears glazing my eyes.

"The microphone was never broken. I met her that day and I didn't know what I was doing. I'd been drinking and she asked to come back to my place so I took her. We slept together and it's the most stupid thing I've ever done and I regret it so much. I'm so sorry I love you so much and I never wanted to hurt you." He breaks down in tears and has to sit on a stool before he keels over.

"You're a lying piece of shit that doesn't deserve me. You didn't want to hurt me? If you didn't want to hurt me then why the fuck did you do it? Go find your pretty little girlfriend and get out of this house." I shout, storming out of the door to find three boys listening outside and running into the studio to comfort Luke.
