Sophia's P.O.V

Leondre is tweeting all his lovely bambinos on his phone, it's the night before Charlie was coming and if I'm going to be honest, I'm feeling really quite nervous.

A text message cuts off my thinking and I notice it's from Esme.

What does she want now.

Hey Sophia, wanna meet up in the park near the big sainsburys, we are staying in neath because it's my cousins birthday??xox

I don't know what to say to that because I can't exactly just leave Leo's house to meet another friend.

However I ask Leo.

"Leo do you mind if I go and meet my friend in the park, I will only be about an hour and I think she wants to see me for some reason" I say, sounding guilty.

"Yes of cause, I'm going to do a YOUNOW soon anyway so it will be fine" Leo says back.

"Ok, I will be back before 8 I promise" I tell him.

"Pinky promise?" Leo smiles.

"Pinky promise" I repeat.

I quickly text back Esme, realising I've left her waiting.

Yes okay, I'll be there in 10

I arrive at the park and see Esme sitting on the park bench refreshing her Instagram feed.

"Hey" I say, as I sit down next to her.

"Hi" she says, sounding more joyful than ever before.

"Was there something you needed me for because I'm visiting people too" I say, not meaning to come across as rude.

"Well there is something" she says, giving me a wink.

"What?" I say confused.

"There's a boy" Esme says.

"Not more boys Esme, I swear you go through boys faster than I go through ... You know what... Faster than anything" I say, it's the truth.

"This one is different" she says, smirking.

"I'm pretty sure that's what you said the last time, and the time before, and then there was the time before that... And then there was..."

"OK" Esme says sharply.

"Look maybe I just want you to be careful, you need to find the right boy for you that you truly want to be with instead of just loving a boy for the sake of having a boyfriend" I say.

You need to find the right boy for you

For some reason when I told Esme this it made me think of leondre, almost as if he is the right boy for me personally, but no, it can't be, we are friends... Just friends.

"I think this really is the right boy" she says smiling.

"Well when can I meet him" I ask.

"That might be a problem" she says nervously.

"Why?" I question.

"I haven't even met him, or spoken to him in any way myself yet" she says, sounding worried.

"So then how can you be in love with him" I ask.

"Because his selfies are gorgeous" she says.

"Well I've got to get back, it's almost 8" I say, I just don't want to get involved in Esmes love life right now when I haven't even got a boyfriend myself.

"Can I just show you a photo" she asks.

"Go on then" I giggle.

But my giggle fades away abruptly when she reveals her lock screen as a boy that looks very familiar, it looks like, it looks like... It is... It's Charlie Lenehan.

"Esme, I have to go" I say sounding cross.

"Wait.." She says.

"What" I say bluntly.

"You have to help me find him" she smiles.

"I'm sorry Esme, I can't do that, and I'm sorry but you can't be with him either" I say truthfully.

"Excuse me" she says, red in the face.

"I'm sorry to upset you but it's true" I admit.

"You like him don't you, you've seen this perfect selfie and fallen in love and you won't let me find him because you want to get to him first" she shouts.

"No it's more to do with the fact that he is famous and has girls all over him and he won't be committed to have a girlfriend.. Very sorry to disappoint" I say.

"His not famous, I haven't seen him" she laughs.

"Neither had I, and I hadn't seen my best friend become famous either, but it happened, I'm telling you, the boy on your lock screen is famous and your not going to be able to go out with him, Esme I'm sorry" I say.

"I'm going to look him up tonight" she says, and she storms off.

Oh flip! If she looks him up she will see that he is in a duo and she will see Leo and she knows Leo because of him being my close friend so she has meant him a few times and knowing Esme she will just use Leo for Charlie and might even ruin everything between me and Leo... Wait what? There was nothing to ruin between me and Leo. Just a friendship.

Just a friendship.

I really enjoyed writing this chapter

Esme is annoying to actually write about because she gets on my nerves and I invented her 😂

Please comment what you want to happen, do you want Esme and Charlie to get together to form chesme or would you rather keep everything as 'just a friendship'
