"What?! You're breaking up with me? Why? What did I do wrong?" I couldn't believe Ryan was breaking up with me. All I could think of was why.

"You don't spend enough time with me" Was I hearing things?

"I spent enough time with you. I spent time studying and seeing the friends who aren't in my class or college. I have offered you to come with me, but no. You didn't want to. I quote 'I don't want to spend time with pathetic lowlives who I don't like'" I raised my voice a bit more.

"Pathetic lowlives? I meant your 'best friend'" He put a sarcastic emphasis on the 'best friend'.

"What's the sarcasm for?" I wanted to know. Why was he being sarcastic towards Jaymi.

"I don't believe he's 'not into you' I think he's waiting for this breakup to happen and then make his mover I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Jaymi was my best friend. He has been my best friend since we were five when I moved into the area and he kept having to do Nursery again because he couldn't get on with any of the children in his year, he was assigned my buddy and we had been inseparable every since. We had to be in the same class every year. One year, Year 3 I think it was, we were put into separate classes in school and we refused to go in there and cried. I basically didn't make any friends until high school when most of our lessons were separate. When he came out as gay to me, I literally cried with happiness. I was so happy for him. That made me wonder why Ryan always had such a problem with him.

"Ryan, he's my best friend. He's gay for crying out loud! Do you understand what gay is? It means he's into men! I'm a woman, if you haven't already realised. Fine, you've split up with me. Goodbye" I hung up and grabbed my coat and my keys and made my way to Jaymi's house.

Jaymi's house was the house he shared with his bandmates George, Josh and JJ. George was like my younger brother, he was so adorable. He can play the guitar and sing, that made him even more adorable. He's always looks so cwtchy. Josh was like my fun, older brother. He was the one who always took us to theme parks. I'm the one who will go on rollercoasters with him, no matter what. The others won't, they go for the food. And finally, JJ. JJ was the one who's there for me. He's like my other best friend. He'll take me shopping, when I'm paying obviously. He's got a sister the same age as me and knows fashion. You can tell when you look at him. He's got style. He'll cheer me up when no one else can. He knows how to. He's really quiet as well, quite like me.

I just walked into Jaymi's house, like it was my own. Tears streaming down my face, they didn't show any signs of stopping. I heard someone in the kitchen, muttering to themselves. It was Josh. He heard footsteps behind him and turned around.

"Hey Ali. You alr-" When he turned around fully, he noticed I want no way alright. "What's happened?!" He was always worried. He pulled me into a tight hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and just cried my eyes out.

"Ryan. He broke up with me" I managed to choke out through tears. They were still streaming down my face.

"Oosh. His loss. Sorry, I'm not helping. Did he say why?" He was talking to me as if I was stood in front of him. We were in fact still hugging me tightly.

"He said he didn't believe that Jaymi wasn't interested in me and I didn't spend enough time with him. That I spent too much time either studying or with my friends and family" I choked out again.

"Jesus, that's harsh" I cried my eyes out again. I didn't want to let go, he gives the best hugs.

"What's going on here?" I recognised Jaymi's voice and broke free from Josh. I ran over to him and hugged him. "What's wrong love?" He always called me love, he's like my brother. After I explained to him, him, Josh and George were trying to cheer me up with cheesy tricks, jokes etc, but nothing would. George even got out his guitar and starting singing to me, that wouldn't even work. "I know, how would you like to come to our gig tonight? That would cheer you up!" I just shrugged. I wasn't sure if it would cheer me up. "Either way, we want your support so you're there" He was so bossy sometimes. I got up and started to get ready for the gig. I didn't really care about dressing up or anything so I just wore skinny jeans and a jumper-type top with low-top converse. I curled my hair into soft curls and applied natural make-up to my face so it didn't look like I tried to hard or didn't try enough.

"Ready to go?" said a very excited Jaymi. With that, we left. I wasn't in the mood for anything. I just wanted to cry and eat ice cream.
