As I walk into the room, I look at Niomi working hard away at writing notes in her pad and editing her main channel video. She works so hard, Niomi does. I never realised it before. I knew she tried hard but how hard? I didn't know until watching her. I soon realise how long I've been watching her for, but luckily she didn't seem to notice.

"Wanna get a pizza?" I ask her.

"Yeah, Pizza Hut" she mumbles, clearly stuck into her notes and planning for her future videos.

"Get up then!" I say, getting my coat. She glares at me. "Why can't you go to the crappy phone and call some idiot who is either harsh or flirty? When I'm here, working harder than I ever have before!" She snaps.

"We are going to go to Pizza Hut. Not order from home you grumpy one" I laugh, throwing her coat at her.

"Marky I can't-"

"Shhhhh, I'm not sitting here with a moaning stress for my Saturday night!" I complain.

"Then go out with someone else, more fun than I am" she says harshly and continues to work.

I stare at her in confusion and shock. Then it turns to anger. "Fine, I will." I am furious by now. I put my coat on and storm out the door, slamming the door as loud as I can and walking down the pathway, trying to clear my head of what just happened. We always argue and solve it after an hour. Everyone argues. But this fight seemed more important. And scary. I wonder through the streets, trying to calm myself down. I go to Pizza Hut and sit down.

When the waitress comes, she grins at me. "Well, I thought my job was horrible but looking at you, I'm glad I've been brought to you."

I smile at her but it is hard. "I have a girlfriend."

"So? Cheating isn't cheating if you don't get caught."

"Yes but I love my girlfriend. So sorry, please can I just order?" I am annoyed that I get flirted on when I hate Niomi most. It's so easy for me to go home with this girl but I can't. I won't. I love Niomi. But I dislike her right now.

"Okay fine. At least let me sit with you."

"Fine."

I watch as the girl moves her chair to me. I am worried she will make a move. I stay still as she grins at me. "Don't look so worried." She grins again. She puts her hand on my arm. "You want to kiss me..."

I am worried. Before she can say anything, I say, "I can't do this." I run out of the restaurant, to be stopped by the girl.

"One kiss" she says softly. I try to back away but her strong hands stop me and before I know it, her lips are on mine. I try to pull away, trying to hurt her, do anything to stop the kiss, but she keeps kissing me. I stamp on her foot, making her wince but her grip doesn't loosen. I whack her but she still doesn't move. Suddenly, in a blur, someone zooms at her and she falls to the ground. I fall too. Shocked, I look around to see Niomi whacking the girl.

"DON'T TOUCH MY BOYFRIEND! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?" Niomi screams and spits at her.

"Niomi! It's not what it seemed!" I gasp, grabbing her. I look at the girl, struggling to get up from the floor. "What have you done?" I yell.

The girl glares at me. "Blame me matey, but you were in on this!"

I spit at her and pull Niomi away and sit her on a chair. "Niomi! I'm so sorry I was trying to stop her I moved away but she's strong and I couldn't..." I am crying by now, in an emotional wreck. She will leave me. I wasn't strong enough. "I love you and I'm sorry, please don't-"

Suddenly Niomi is kissing me. I kiss her back, then pull away. "What-"

"I saw everything. You tried to pull away but she was strong. I love you Marky, I know you never did anything. And I'm sorry as well, I was stressed." I look into her soft eyes.

"I love you." I kiss her and hug her again and we walk home, holding hands and trusting each other.
