Corbyn sighed a little bit and leaned his head on my shoulder.

"Who told you?" he asked, it came across a bit muffled.

"The boys brought her up in a conversation once. I didn't really ask though, but I'm a little bit curious" I admitted.

"Of course it was then" I could feel him rolling his eyes.

"You don't have to tell me if you're not ready" I said, moving him away from me a little so I could see his face. He was silent for a bit, thinking about whether he should tell me or not.

"Fine" he sighed. He took my hand and we sat down on the couch. "Christina is my ex girlfriend, but you obviously already know that. I was head over heels for her, I loved her more than I thought I could ever love anyone. The fans loved her, the boys loved her and my family loved her"

Maybe I shouldn't have asked about her, this is making me feel a little jealous. But I didn't say anything and let him carry on because I was curious.

"She lives here in New York as well, so we were doing long distance. She would come on tour with us all the time, but she got a little clingy at times. The boys had to ask her if she could leave because she was around all the time. She threw a huge fit and we got into a fight about it. She said that she didn't want to leave me because she loved me, but I came to find out later that she was just using me for my money"

"Oh my god Corbyn, I'm so sorry..." I said, taking his hands in mine.

"It's not your fault" he half smiled. "She always wanted to come on tour if I payed and because I was in love with her, I did. I bought her everything that she wanted when we were away because I thought she would love me more. I was stupid and naive and didn't see it. The boys did though, they told me to end it before I got seriously hurt, I didn't listen..."

He took a deep breath and wiped his eyes, stopping the tears from falling down his face. She really hurt him, didn't she?

"We had finished touring and I decided to go to New York first to surprise her because she was basically forced to leave us half way through. She didn't know I was coming, because I thought it would be cute and romantic. I walked to her room and saw her in bed with a random guy. He was on top of her, naked and everything. At that very moment I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces"

By now the tears were streaming down his face. My heart broke seeing him like this, I know exactly what it feels like.

"She told me that it was nothing and the guy was raping her. I didn't agree with her at all because I know what I saw. She ended up lashing out at me and admitting everything. She yelled, screamed and cried. I left her apartment with her running after me, trying to get me to stay. I didn't listen and I got the first flight to LA and left. I didn't come back to New York until the tour, and that's when I met you" he smiled a little.

"Did anything happen afterwards? Do the fans know?" I asked.

"Yes and no" he shrugged. "She tried to give them subtle hints that I was cheating on her, but most of the fans stuck up for me and she got a lot of hate. Eventually, people moved on and forgot about it but she's being brought up a lot again because people pretty much know that we're dating. Some people think that Christina and I are still together and that I'm actually still cheating on her, but I'm not because I'm with you. I love you..."

Did he? Did he just tell me he loves me?

"You love me...?" I asked, hesitantly.

"Yeah" he chuckled nervously. "I know that you won't hurt me and that's all I want. You treat me with love and respect and don't push anything on me. You wouldn't even let me pay for you staying with us on tour until I already told you I'd done it"

"Still hate you for that you know" I smiled.

"But yes, I love you Emma"

I haven't told someone that I loved them for a long time, but this felt right. His eyes were watery as he looked at me, waiting for a response.

"You don't have to sa-" he said but I cut him off by kissing him.

"I love you too you idiot" I said after I pulled away. After I said that he kissed me again straight away.

"So" he said, while catching his breath. "Want to have some fun?"

I laughed and hit his chest. "Shut up"

If Amelia were here, she would be pushing me to tell Corbyn about Jeremy. But I didn't think it was the right time to tell him that. Yes, his story was bad but mines worse. I don't think he needs to hear my sob story and everything that happened to me in that relationship. Let's just say...that it didn't end nicely.
