Chapter One
"If you were the one you wouldn't have hurt me so bad" whispered as she watched her now ex boyfriend walk away with another woman on his arm. She was sure she had found the man who going to sweep her off her feet and into the world where she wanted to be, the married with children world. Now not only had he broken up with her he was going back to his ex and they were engaged. sighed deeply, she had been crying for days so now the tears just did not to come anymore.
walked into the living and flopped down onto the couch. Everything of David's was now moved out and had to figure out if she still wanted to live in their apartment or if she wanted to get out and just run for the hills. She had been living in a small town called Sligo for 8 years now and she knew everyone in the town had heard about her and David. Maybe moving away would be good for her but where would she go and what would she do? She had a good job here, good friends and to be perfectly honest she was too scared to up and leave. She was never that kind of person. The phone ringing pulled from her thoughts, she did not feel like answering it but she reached for the phone anyways.
"Hello?" answered.
"Hi , just wanted to see if you're up for a bit of a girls' night?" asked "Please say yes, we don't want to you down in the dumps because the loser David"
", we broke up two weeks ago and we had been together for 3 years! I think I have the right to be down in the dumps for a bit!" protested "And aren't the boys back tonight anyways?"
"Nope, they are stuck in London until tomorrow" said, pretending to ignore what else had said "So, we will be over around 7 o'clock, be ready babe. It will be fun I promise"
", I do not want to go out tonight! ?" placed the phone back down after she realized had already hung up on her "I don't need this "
As promised there was a knock at the door at 7 sharp and then the sound of laughter filled 's house. laughed to herself when she heard her friends come in but stopped once she heard the sound of 's voice.
"Stuck in London eh" said watching walk into her bedroom.
"They were suppose to be but they are Westlife so a little smile and some charm and bam they get to fly home" smiled meekly at "You still have to come out"
"Can't we all stay in and watch a movie?" asked looking to the floor, dreading having to be the 9th wheel.
"Nope, we all have our party clothes on" said grabbing 's purse and heading back to the group. sighed and followed out into her living room.
"Hey Love, how you doing?" asked giving her a hug.
shook her head "Fine I suppose"
"He was a useless tit anyways " said pulling her into his arms "And tonight we are going to get ya good and drunk like only your best boy friends can"
couldn't help but smile, her friends could always make her smile no matter what.
"Now, lets party" said heading for the door.
It did not take long once the group landed at the local club to the drink flowing and the dancing going. By the way she was acting you wouldn't know had her heart broken in two, just two week before.
Finally around 2 o clock in the morning, the group friends were being kicked out the club so they could close. Giggling away the group started walking to and 's place since it was the closest. had arm wrapped tight around because as he said earlier he had gotten her good and drunk.
"Tell me why I wore these heels" moaned.
"Because you are a silly girl who thinks fashion is more important then comfort" slurred pulling closer to him "Same as this one"
"Whatever , they are hot shoes" said keeping a hold of so she wouldn't fall.
Once at and 's, everyone quickly started crashing in spare rooms or just in the living room. Once everyone was asleep, got up and went to the kitchen, the effects of the alcohol were quickly wearing off. She sat alone in the kitchen instead of curled up sleeping by David.
"It wasn't suppose to be like this" sobbed silently to herself.
"Oh baby girl don't cry" said coming into the kitchen.
"I can't believe he found someone else and left me " chocked out through the tears. pulled her into his arms.
", he doesn't deserve you, never did" said holding her tighter. held her until she had calmed down again "Go and get some sleep okay, your head's gonna hurt in the morning or afternoon if you're honest"
"Thanks " said as she went to kiss 's cheek but he moved suddenly and her lips landed on his. pulled away quickly "Sorry ". stared at blankly before he placed his hand on the back of her neck and pulled her in to kiss her again. let herself melt into his kiss before quickly coming back into reality and pushing away.
"Good Night " said before quickly heading upstairs.
"Night" whispered knowing she was not going to hear him anyways. He touch his lips, they felt like they were on fire from her kiss. He did not know what came over him but kissing her was sheer magic. He shook his head and went back to bed. He pulled close to him and hoped everything would be okay when he woke up.
The next afternoon everyone was gathering in the kitchen for coffee and donuts before all heading home, walked in last while was making another pot of coffee.
" is already gone" said getting herself a donut and waiting for to get her coffee.
"Awww but we always have coffee together and talk about the fun we had" said.
"Maybe she didn't have as much this time, I mean this is the first time in 3 years where we didn't go out as a group of 10" said sipping his coffee.
"She had fun " protested.
"I never said she didn't have fun, we are all in couples expect her now. Her break up is still fresh , he left her 2 weeks ago. I found her in here last night crying" explained "Plus David moved the rest of his stuff out yesterday so I don't think she would have been in the mood to party"
"Damn I forgot he was doing that yesterday" sighed "No wonder she just wanted to stay in last night"
"I hate that guy" said "She was so happy until two weeks ago"
had hardly slept, she tossed and turned thinking about and why he had kissed her. She finally got up and decided to just go home to her own house. When she got there she broke down again. She was now alone and confused. One of her best friends had kissed her and he was married. She wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear. David was gone and kissed her. She pulled herself upstairs and into the guest room. She could not sleep in their bedroom yet or probably ever again. She finally fell into a restless sleep.
When woke up, she decided that she was going to ignore that kissed her and make she by the time she went to bed she had another apartment to move into. She quickly showered, had some toast and headed out to see if there was anywhere that she could live.
arrived home late in the evening. She was tired and just wanted to crawl into bed for a good night's rest. When she walked into the she found the lads sitting in her living room.
"Remind me to take your keys away when I move" said flopping into one of the chairs "I'm so tired what do you guys what?"
"We came to propose a job position to you" started "We need a PA and we all figured you would like to get away"
"We have it all settled with Louis, you just have to say yes" said "Please say yes and come with us "
"Eight months you'll hardly be here" said "You can completely get over him and not even have to see him"
"Come on please" said looking directly into her eyes.
"Thanks, I would love to go" said giving them a smile.
"Oh good" said hugging her "The girls will be so happy you're coming too"
"Well, I guess we just have to tell Louis now" said taking out his phone "I have dinner with soon so lets go lads"
"Yes, sir" said following to the door "See ya "
"Bye Love" said kissing her cheek " you coming or staying?"
"Staying if doesn't mind" said looking at "I just wanted to chat a bit"
nodded "Of course you can stay"
"Alright” said walking out of the door behind the other “Have a good night”
“, don’t even mention last night” started not really knowing what to say to “We were drunk whatever but lets just forget it okay”
“I don’t really want to forget it ” said sitting down on her sofa “I thought of it and you all day and I don’t think I can forget it”
“ you have to forget it, you’re married to a lovely girl who loves you with all her heart” said looking into ’s eyes “And I’m just your friend who is damaged goods”
“You’re not damaged goods” started taking one of ’s hands into his “You’re a beautiful, smart, amazing woman and I have no idea why Dave would let someone like you get away”
pulled her hand away from ’s and got up from the sofa “, I can’t do this. I’m screwed up enough with David leaving me I can’t handle this, whatever it is. You’re one of my best friends as is your wife and I could never do that to her. I couldn’t stand myself if I made someone hurt like I’m hurting right now”
“I’m sorry , I just…I wish you knew more” whispered not even really wanting to hear him.
“What are you talking about ?” looked at him with concern in her eyes.
“Nothing ” said getting up “You’re dealing with enough, lets just forget about everything”
“” said as shook his head
“I’m so happy you’re coming on tour with us” said smiling at her “Lets have a beer, got any in the fridge?”
nodded her head yes and then proceeded to follow into the kitchen. She wondered what he has meant by his words. Was something really wrong with her friends’ marriage? had often thought and had one of the most perfect relationships. shook from her thoughts when he handed her a beer.
“Do you think I will be any good as a PA? I mean I don’t think I can easily run around after you guys” said leaving the subject alone as she knew did not want to talk about it.
“I think you will be amazing” said taking a drink of his beer “You will keep us in line and not take our shit so can’t ask for much more”
laughed and nodded her head “That is for sure, I take no shit from anyone. Lets watch some TV , can’t stand up any longer”
“Oh babe I can leave, if you’re that tired” said finally seeing how tired she did actually look.
“I don’t really want to be alone” whispered “I spent the day looking for a new place to live, being here just hurts”
“Go pack a bag” said taking her beer from her “I’ll take you to my place or a hotel”
“No, I’ll just sleep on the sofa or in the guest room” said while staring down at the floor “I just wish I could make myself feel better”
placed his hand under her chin making her look up at him “You will , I will help you in whatever way you need me. In a time you won’t even remember David”
“Thank you ” said hugging him. wrapped his arms tight around feeling her shake knowing she had started to cry. He held her till she calmed herself down “I’m sorry”
“Don’t be I’m here whenever you need to cry, talk, laugh or drink” said giving her a smile “Now what is on the telly tonight?”
laughed and followed into the living room where he was already flipping through the channels. She flopped down beside him and he gave her that winning grin.
“Things are going to be okay” thought to herself.
Chapter 2
The month before the tour passed quickly and seemed even quicker for , she was busy learning how to be a PA. She never imagine she would work for the lads especially has their PA but she knew she could do it and she knew how handle the lads no matter what mood they were in.
watched as she listened to Louie give her information about the upcoming tour, he could tell it must have been something he had already told her because was looking bored. He finally caught her eye and smiled to which he smiled back. He has been spending more time with her since the night him and lads went to offer her the job as PA. He had wanted to help her feel better after David had broken her heart but now he was strictly doing it for himself she made him feel better. was jetting off with friends as often as she could so he never felt bad when he wasn’t home. He knew had a feeling was up since but she never forced the issue. When he was ready he would talk and liked that she knew that. Their friendship had always come easily but now it felt like there was nothing in the way.
“Hey ” said walking up to him “Does Louie always repeat himself that much?” laughed and nodded “I’m afraid so love, he likes to know you know what is going on, and there is no way you’re going to forget it” “ home tonight?” asked secretly hoping she would be away again. hated being alone in her apartment so when was there she never felt weird about being there. She could not wait until she would be out of the place and on the road for eight months with the lads.
“No her friends decided to take her away for a spa weekend or something” said “Even though I’m sure I’m the one paying for all of it” “Well that only sounds fair” said rolling her eyes. Something was wrong and wanted to know but she had decided that would tell her if he wanted to and she would never push the issue but there were cracks in his marriage and they seemed to be growing.
“Hey you two we are planning a night out, you up for it?” yelled across the room. looked at and she nodded “Yeah mate where are we going?” “Just the local pub nothing fancy tonight” said walking over to them “Meeting there around 8pm. See ya in a bit” kissed cheek and then caught up with .
“Want me to come and pick you up?” asked . “How about I get a taxi then come and get you?” suggested. “Excellent idea, then I don’t have to leave the car at the pub” said walking to the door. “I know I have brains and beauty” said laughing. “You most definitely do babe” said giving her a smile “See ya in a bit love” “Bye ” said before climbing into her car.
When got home she decided to have a bath and get ready for the evening ahead of her. She stood in front of her closet trying to decide what to wear normally could pull an outfit together in seconds but tonight she didn’t like anything in her closet. She finally decided on a simple black top, skinnies and flats since they were just going to the local pub. She decided on soft make up and left her hair wavy. All the girls loved her wavy hair because she had beach hair without having to go to the beach. Once she was pleased with her look she called the taxi and headed to ’s place.
stood in front of the mirror in the hallway checking himself out one more time. His hair messed just right, navy blue button up shirt and dark jeans. He rarely checked himself out this much before going out because it never really cared but tonight was different, he hated to admit it to himself but he wanted to notice him and not in any type of friendship way. He was ripped out of his thoughts as he heard the horn beeping from the taxi. Grabbing his keys he took a deep breath and headed out to the car.
The ride to the pub was quick and everyone was already there. Drinks started flowing quickly and the laughter filled the pub. Around two in the morning the bartenders were pushing the group out the door so they could close for the night. As they all said good night to each other and fell into cabs watched . He was feeling too much for her but didn’t want it to stop. He wondered what she was thinking and feeling. He mainly wondered if she could feel the same about him.
“Hey Handsome it is cold get in the taxi” called to . quickly hoped into the car and told the driver ’s address. Pulling up to ’s flat, paid the drive and they climbed the stairs to her flat. fumbled with the keys until she finally got them into the house.
“, why did you let me drink so much” moaned flopping down onto the sofa. She felt pick up her legs and sit down before placing her legs in his lap. “I could ask you the same question! We need some tablets before bed” said rubbing his head. reached up over the arm of the sofa to reach for the tablets on the end table as she did this her top rode up slightly exposing some skin, noticed this and let his fingers slightly caress her skin.
“” said softly giving him a look. didn’t say a word but moved himself so he leaned over . He could feel her breathing quicken and his heart was racing. He had thought about kissing her again since he kissed her that night at and ’s. It felt like slow motion as he leaned down to kiss her and when his lips finally touched hers again he felt a spark down his spine and he knew she felt it too. His kiss started soft and slow but soon became more passionate and urgent. His hands slipped under her shirt.
pulled away from kiss breathless “ we can’t do this” “, please don’t make me stop, I need you right now” said looking into her eyes. saw a want in his eyes but also a sadness she had never seen before.
“Make me feel better ” whispered “Make me feel wanted” “, what’s wrong?” questioned, she was looking for answers in his expression which was just one of sadness. “Tomorrow, can we talk about it tomorrow” almost begged “let me make love to you . ” was confused but instead of stopping him she pulled him closer and kissed him. She let him touch her, kiss her and make love to her. He of course let her do all the same to him. fell asleep feeling better than he had in a long time and fell asleep feeling more confused then ever.
woke up the next day feeling two strong arms around her, the night before quickly came back to her. She knew today she had to get to talk today otherwise she wouldn’t be able to stand herself knowing she had slept him last night. A smile couldn’t help but appear on her lips though as she felt softly kiss her shoulder.
“Mornin’ Beautiful” said softly “Roll over” carefully rolled herself over on the sofa. “Morning ” said almost trying to avoid his gaze until he stopped her and made her look at him. “Look at me ” said placing his hand under her chin “Please don’t regret last night, I won’t ever. Last night was amazing” “, you have to tell me what is going on” said looking him in the eyes now “I don’t regret last night yet but knowing I’m cheating with one of my best friends on one of my best friends just doesn’t make feel good”
“I know” This time it was ’s turn to avoid ’s gaze.
“She doesn’t love me anymore” whispered “She wants to leave me but won’t because she has gotten used to having my money on hand for whatever she wants” “, rough patch she still loves you” said getting up and pulling on her clothes. sat up pulling the blanket over him and shook his head. “No she doesn’t” said more firmly “She doesn’t sleep in our bed, she sleeps in the guest room furthest away from me. Only when we are in public does she let me be affectionate with her. She told me she can’t live without my money so she won’t leave me but she says she will do what she needs to happy”
sat looking up at who was shocked at her friend. never seemed like the type to just use someone and especially . She seemed to be so in love with him. She had still loved him. wouldn’t do this.
“ there has got to some other explanation to all this” sitting back beside him. “No, she made it clear” said starting to get emotional “Very clear! And if I try to leave her she will make up lies about us and how I ruined the marriage so she could get a big settlement from me” “ isn’t like this ” shook her head finding it hard to believe that could do this.
“Well guess what she is like that!” said angrily getting up and throwing his clothes on “She is everything I said I never wanted! A gold digging bitch, who is breaking my heart” got up from the sofa and walked over to “I’m sorry ” “I don’t know what to do” said closing the distance between him and and wrapping his arms around her “Last night, was the best night I had in months. Being with you felt like I was always meant to be with you ” smiled and softly kissed . of course pulled her closer and deepened the kiss. pulled away from ’s embrace but pulled her back.
“If she can do what she needs to be happy so should I right?” asked. nodded “Well this is making me happier then I have even been” smiled at and kissed her again “I think we need a shower” giggled and pulled her to the bathroom.
was meant to be happy too thought and he was making her happy as well. So maybe they had to keep things under the radar, there was no reason not to be unhappy when they could be happy together. She just hoped this would be the right decision for both of them.
Chapter 3
It had been a month since the tour started and a little over a month since and started seeing each other on the side. They had been together since they slept together. Since was the one looking after the hotel bookings she always made sure her and ’s rooms were next to each other expect for the few times had come out. was having a hard time being in the same room as not only because she was the other woman but knowing what was doing to . She wanted everyone to know and then maybe would just leave on her own but knew that wasn’t going to happen ever.
was looking over papers when she felt two strong arms going around her waist. “Hey baby” whispered in her ear. “Hey ” she said turning around “You shouldn’t do that here” “I know but no one is around” said moving away from her a bit “I just wanna be with you. I’m so happy is finally gone home” “Me too, I miss you ” whispered. “I miss you too baby” said getting her a smile “tonight after the show lets spend it just the two of us okay?” nodded in agreement.
“Hey why can’t we hang out too?” said walking up to and with . “I thought you lot were going out and just wanted to stay in” said trying to sound it was actually what was suppose to happen.
“Yeah but maybe we should have a night in tonight” said “We have been out a lot lately” “Well then night in I guess” jumped in “We can use your room right?” “But what if we want to leave a bit early for other activities?” whined “Can’t we use your room or ’s since is gone back”
“Okay, we will use my room” said “Now boys go and get ready for the show” “Yes Ma’am” said before kissing and heading for the dressing room. “See ya after the show babe” said and kissed ’s cheek before catching up with . “You and have gotten really close” said giving a look. “He is just being a good friend ” said “Now excuse me I have a job to go and do”
went directly to the bathroom. She was shaking, knew something was up she just knew it. But how could she know thought to herself. Her and had been very careful and they hadn’t spent any time together in the past few days because was there. settled herself down and knew she was overreacting. After, talking herself out of her freak out she headed back out into the arena.
buzzed around backstage as the concert went on. She would go and watch certain songs but standing there just watching made her weak in the knees. He was an amazing performer and his voice made her melt. She heard the finally roar of the crowd and the boys saying thank you.
“Ready with the cars” she instructed before climbing into ’s car. The lads grabbed towels and a bottle of water before running to the cars and leaving the arena.
“Great show babe” said giving a kiss. The blacked out windows and privacy screen gave them all the privacy they needed for the ride back to the hotel. “Thanks baby” said before pulling onto his lap “You look so good tonight. I can’t wait until the night in is over” “Me too” said leaning in for a kiss from . and made the most of their alone time in the car before having to compose themselves to get out and go into the hotel.
“Okay everyone meet in ’s room in like an hour” said walking to his room once they were in the hotel. Everyone agreed and headed to their rooms. “I will be right back just gonna grab some clothes” whispered to before she walked into her room.
quickly tidied up her room before she heard a knock at her door. She quickly opened it and let in. He was only in a pair of shorts and carried the rest of his clothes. He pulled her close to him kissing her.
“I need a shower” said pulling away from “I think you should have one too” “They are going to be here soon ” said coyly smiling at . “It will be a quick shower baby” said pulling her with him to the bathroom as she giggled.
There was a knock at the door almost exactly a hour after they all had arrived back at the hotel. got up from her bed to answer the door as went into the lounge.
“Hey guys” said opening the door. “Where is ? We knocked as we went by” asked walking into the lounge “Oh already here I see but I guess is gone now” “Exactly ” said grabbing the hotel phone to order snacks from room service “What does everyone want?”
“Beer” the 3 lads said at the same time. “Soda, chips and chocolate ” called from the other side of room. “YES” the other girls yelled!
laughed and called in the order. Everyone found their places on the sofas and floor before putting on a movie. Everyone was having a great night in. They missed just being silly with each other. And the girls were happy they didn’t have to get dressed up and wear heels.
“This was a super idea” said grabbing more chips from the bag in front of her. “It was…but I knew it would be since it my idea to stay in anyways” said “I always have great ideas. “Okay sure ” said getting up to go to the bathroom.
“I think it is time we all head to bed though” said getting up “So excited to sleep in tomorrow” “Oh yeah we have a free day tomorrow” said “Yipee!” “Shopping tomorrow girls” asked. “Oh yes” said “I need some new stuff”
“Okay, lads I will look into maybe getting us a tee time then” said noticing come out of the bathroom “Come on sweetcheeks time for bed. “Yeah just a second I need to ask about something” said staying back as everyone left expect for . “Okay night ladies” said. “No wait ” said looking at both of them. “What’s on your mind ?” asked nervously. “I went to throw out a tissue in the waste basket” started “There’s a condom wrapper in it”
and looked at each other and then back to .
“, it isn’t what you think and you don’t know what is going on. Please don’t mention anything to anyone” said “You just don’t know what is going on” “Two of my best friends are cheating on our other best friend” said getting angry “That is what is going on!” “, you don’t know everything so leave it alone!” said getting upset “You don’t know what is going on here or what is going on with and !” “Whatever ” said walking to the door “I won’t say anything for now but I won’t keep quiet forever”
Chapter Four
looked at once had closed the door. had his head down. “” said walking over to him “What are we gonna do?” wrapped his arms around “I will take care of everything okay, don’t worry about it” “, you don’t have to take care of everything yourself. I’m in this too with you” said looking him in the eye. softly smiled at . “I know baby but I don’t want you to worry about a thing,” said pulling her closer. “You make me so happy I just want to take care of you” “You can still let me help you ” said kissing him softly on the cheek. “I love you ” whispered. almost held her breath like if she moved at all he would take it back. This was first time said he loved her. She knew she loved him but she wasn’t sure he was feeling the same way. She let a soft smile grace her lips before softly brushing them against his lips. “I love you too ” wrapped his arms tightly around her and kissed her back but now with more passion and love. With he felt everything that he was missing with . He wanted everyone to know how he felt about . He wanted her to be the one on his arm when they went out. He wanted to show her off and introduce her to his family has his girlfriend not just as his friend. He had to figure out how to get out of his life.
Over the next couple of weeks watched how and were with each other. She noticed they seemed to be less friendly with each other but that just made her wonder if they were trying to hide their relationship even more because she did find out about it. She knew was coming in for a week so maybe she would try and talk to about it and see what was really going on with .
Everyone was having a drink in the hotel bar after the show when arrived. “Hey everyone! You miss me?” said making her way over to “Hey Baby” “Hey love, how was the flight?” said getting up and giving her a kiss. “Oh not bad” said, “Oh we need an extra chair” “No , take this one” said getting up “I’m going to bed” “ I just got her” said “We will just get another chair” “ really I’m so tired tonight! I ran for these lads today” said, “My body needs my bed” “Alright, have a great sleep hun” said giving a hug.
gave a look as she said good night to everyone. quickly headed for the lift as she felt tears springing to her eyes. She knew wasn’t in love with anymore but she was still one her best friends. She was feeling very guilty. crawled into bed and laid where had slept the night before. She cried herself to sleep that night feeling like a horrible friend.
The next day everyone met for breakfast. looked up as and walked to the table. looked like he hadn’t slept at all. was grinning ear to ear.
“What has got you so happy ? Can’t be just being back here with ” asked. “Well, we have some great news for everyone” said “Go ahead tell them ” “ is pregnant” said forcing a smile and avoiding looking at . “That is amazing” said getting up to hug them “Congrats!” Everyone got up to hug and congratulate and . looked at she hugged . He knew the tears in her eyes weren’t the ones of happiness.
“Congrats ” said trying to hold back her tears. pulled her into his arms “I’m so sorry baby” pulled away from and gave him a faint smile “Well I have to go and look after a couple things for your interviews later. See ya later everyone” couldn’t even hear the others saying goodbye to her. All she could hear was said is pregnant, over and over in her head. She quickly ran into the hotel bathroom and threw up. She felt like the scum of the earth and how could she be so stupid. said they hadn’t been sleeping together for almost a year and now she was pregnant. sat and sobbed in the bathroom until the tears wouldn’t come anymore. She didn’t know how she was going to finish this tour, her heart was broken again and she had to stay. The worst was she didn’t have anyone to turn to, to help her feel better. She knew wouldn’t want to hear it and no one else knew about her and . She was going to have to figure out this one all by herself.
spent the rest of the day avoiding the others especially and . She just couldn’t face them right now. She was happy when the show started and she got to leave. She would normally stay and make sure everything was perfect but tonight she needed to leave. She knew the crew knew exactly what to do and everything as always would go off without a hitch. She climbed into a cab and headed back to the hotel. Once in her hotel room she had a long hot bath and then crawled into bed. As much as she thought she didn’t have any tears left she cried again. soon fell into a restless sleep. A knock at her door woke up. She didn’t want company but she also knew she had to answer it just in case.
“, open up it is ” called knocking on the door again. quickly opened the door to let in. walked into the lounge and sat down. “Well, I guess I don’t have to worry about having to tell anyone about you and now since I can imagine you won’t be messing around with him anymore” started “You won’t break up a family will you ?” “, if you have come here to lecture me don’t” said her voice thick with emotion “I feel bad enough without you coming here to tell me anything. Also you have no idea what was going on with me and or with and ” “I know you were sleeping him ” said getting anger “I know he is married to our best friend who is carrying his child. So I might not know all the details but I know the basics and it makes you look awful. I don’t think I can look at you the same ever again ” “Get out of my room now” said chocking back her tears. “Gladly” said walking out of the room.
hid around the corner as he heard someone come from ’s room. He had to talk to her. He was sick all day about having to tell everyone at once. He wanted to tell her first so she wouldn’t be surprised. Even though he didn’t look right at her when they told everyone he saw the shocked look on her face and the disappoint in her eyes. waited until he heard a door close before he came from around the corner. He softly knocked on her door and waited hoping she would answer.
The door opened a bit but walked away to the longue knowing it was . pushed the door open and walked into her room. He quietly closed the door and took a deep breath knowing this wasn’t going to be easy.
turned around and walked into the lounge, his heart broke again when he saw curled up on the sofa with her eyes red and puffy from crying. It brought tears to his own eyes. He went over and sat down beside . He just wanted to hold her but he held back.
“, I’m so sorry” started “I don’t even know what to say. We slept together once about 3 months ago. We were both drunk and I just wanted to be with my wife” “ I don’t wanna know” said wiping the tears from her eyes “You shouldn’t have to explain me why you slept with your wife” “, I want to be with you” said letting his own tears start to fall “I love you, I’m in love with you” “You have to be with ” said crying even more “You have to be with her and the baby” pulled into his arms. He didn’t want to let her go. He wished wasn’t pregnant. He was planning on offering a large sum of money to leave him so he could be with but now with her pregnant that just wasn’t in the cards. When tried to pull away held her tighter, finally let go and softly kissed knowing that was probably the last time they would ever kiss again. “You should get back to ” said getting up from the sofa. “Yeah, please know I love you with all my heart and if I could change this I would” said looking at . “I love you too ” said looking back at him “Goodbye ” “I love you more ” said before walking out the door.

Chapter Five
Over the next few weeks did her job as Westlife PA and forced a smile when she needed. She was playing her part in being a good friend to and but on the inside she was a mess. would leave her text messages saying how much he missed her and how much he wished things could be different which was just making things worse because she wanted to forget everything. She only had two more weeks left and she would be away from everything that was making her miserable. With the money she was making working for the lads she decided she was going to move away from everyone. would be with and her best friend couldn’t look at her anymore.
sighed as she sat down on her bed after long day of interviews, a photo shoot and to top it off a concert! She had no idea how the lads did it because she was just looking after stuff they were the ones working their butts off. groaned as she heard a knock on her door. She slowly got to her feet and talked to the door, opening it she found standing in front of her.
“Hi , what’s up?” asked moving out of the way to let her in. “You’re the one was messing about with weren’t you” said blankly walking into ’s hotel room. “What?” asked shocked. “ told me he was seeing someone else and since you have been so blah lately I assume it is you” said rolling her eyes “You’re not as good actress as you think you are”. “, I don’t know what to say” said with tears threatening to fall. “I don’t care ” said with no real emotion in her voice “Just stay away from him now. It won’t look good in the press if is caught with someone else and I plan on letting everyone about it so everyone will be watching you two”. “, why are you doing this to ?” said as a single tear slid down her cheek “He loved you so much and now you’re just making him miserable”. “Because I can and I like the money” said with a smile on her face “And now he is going to be a daddy so I have something to hold over his head forever”. “You’re not the person I thought you were ” said wiping her tears. “No one is going to think any differently of me just you” said walking towards her “Now everyone is meeting in and ’s room for a movie, let’s go I said I would come and get you”. “No ” said “I won’t go and let you make everyone think I’m the bad one”.“Go or I will for sure tell everyone tonight about you and ” said pointing to the door.
sighed to the door. She couldn’t believe this was happening to her. laughed and followed to and ’s room. Before she walked in behind she pulled back and almost ran into the room. was surprised but had a feeling this was night her friends were going to find out about her and .
“, what is wrong?” said getting up from the sofa. stood in the middle of the longue area in tears, she looked back at “, is the one you were cheating on me with?” sobbed. “” said raising his voice slightly.
Everyone looked at , then to and then to who was standing at the door with her head down. “It that true?” asked in shock “?” “I want her gone ” cried as the other girls hugged her. “, how could you?” said giving her a look. finally looked up her eyes red from the tears. She looked around at all her friends staring at her in shock and disgust. She locked eyes with who had tears in his eyes. “I’m going to go and pack” chocked out “I will talk to Louis in the morning, I’m sure Dave will be able to finish the tour without me” “I can’t believe you ” said looking at “And you ” “We will be fine for the next two weeks without you ” said opening the door for her to leave. turned and walked out of the room. She didn’t bother to say anything because she knew it wouldn’t matter anyways. She soon as she reached her room she called the airlines to get the first flight out of there.
Back in and ’s room everyone was still in shock and really didn’t know what to say. The girls were consoling and the lads didn’t know what to say to . got up and walked out of the room. He ran down to ’s room.
“ open up” said banging on the door. came to the door and opened it slightly “Please let me in baby”
backed away from the door and let in. pulled her into his arms “I’m so sorry baby. I can’t believe she did that” “Everyone hates me now” cried “I’m leaving tonight. There is a flight to and I’m leaving on it” “Don’t go to ” begged “Go to England or Scotland please don’t leave me” “I have to !” yelled pulling away from him “Anyone who cares about me is there , I have other friends who don’t look at me like I’m slut” “I can’t live without you ” said finally letting the tears run down his cheeks. “I’m sorry but you’re going to have to learn to” said sobbing “You have a baby coming and is going to do everything in her power to make us impossible so lets just try and move on”. “I don’t want to move on” said taking ’s hands into his “I need to figure something out to make this okay”. “I don’t know if there is anything ” said trying to stop her tears.
There was a banging on the door and then ’s voice.
“, ” he said knocking again “It is just us lads”. looked at and then walked to the door to let the lads in. As the lads walked into the room just looked at the floor she didn’t want to look at them and see their looks of how could you do this and disgust. had his back turned to them and was wiping his tears away.
“What is going on you two?” asked “I can’t believe this. you seem to be so in love with ”. “You lads have no idea what is going on with me and ” said looking at the lads “She isn’t what you think, she really isn’t . “ you have to give us more then that” said “We can all see you’re hurting, I haven’t seen you cry in years but you can’t just say we don’t know what is going on”. “I can’t give you anymore then that right now” said wiping his eyes again “Please don’t make leave”. “, I can’t be here” said walking over to him “You know that”. “You can’t leave me ” said taking her hands “I mean it you can’t. I’m gonna figure something out you just have to stay. I will make everything right okay”. “” whispered. “Just wait a couple days please baby” begged her. He needed her to stay. He needed to figure something out, he would make it so he could be with her, he needed her.
The lads stood watching their best friend cry and beg for to stay. They all looked at each other wondering what was really going on. There was no way this was just some fling, they could see the hurt on both and ’s faces.
“, I’m going to tell , you left for the night and you’re gone to another hotel” said walking over and placing his hand on ’s shoulder “Stay with and figure out whatever you need too”. “Thank ” said almost in a sigh of relief. The lads quietly left the room leaving and to talk it out. When the door closed pulled into his arms. “I’m going to tell , we’re over and I’m going to offer her money to support her and the child” whispered in ’s ear “I will give her all my money if that means I get to be with you” “I love you” said kissing him. “I love you more so much more” said pulling as close as he could “Let’s go to bed baby”. nodded and followed into the bedroom. She changed into night clothes and just slid off his jeans and t-shirt before getting into bed and waiting for .
soon joined in bed and cuddled up to him. She missed just laying with him and now knowing they were going to be together for real, she couldn’t be happier. She just hoped everything was going to be okay and they would have no more problems.
Chapter Six
woke up the next morning before , he laid there and watched her sleep. She looked beautiful and knew he had to make everything right even if it was going to be hard. He was totally in love with and he had to be with her to be happy. He hoped would go for his offer without being a drama queen and causing more problems.
stirred from her sleep and woke to find staring at her. She smilled “Must you watch me sleep? I can’t imagine I look good”
“You’re the most beautiful girl in the world asleep or awake” said leaning down to kiss her “I’m going to go and talk to ”. “Now?” asked sitting up in their bed. “I want to get it done and over with so yeah now” said nervously. He pulled on his clothes and sighed “I hope she doesn’t freak out”, “I love you ” said getting up and hugging him before he left. walked down the hall to his room. He pulled out his key and let himself in. His room was empty, curtains open, bed still made up. He checked the closet and all of ’s things were gone. had a bad feeling about all this. He knew he knew she wasn’t going to just leave quietly especially not knowing that he would still support her and the child. He would take the child he just wanted to be with and not . finally saw a note on the bed.
“You’ll regret this ….love and your baby”. What was she going to do? sighed and headed back to ’s room.
“” called “Have you seen today’s paper?”, “No, what did she do ?” said taking the paper from his hand. “I’m sorry mate” said “She isn’t taking it well”. “I’m pregnant and is cheating on me” read the headline aloud “Lets all have breakfast together in ’s room. I have to tell you guys something”. “I will round up the troops you order room service” said walking away to ’s room.
entered ’s room as she was coming from the shower. “Wow, that was too quick” said before looking at the paper held up for her to read “No ”, “I know baby” said “Everyone is coming over here for breakfast so I can tell them everything, I’m going to order everyone room service now”
Within the hour everyone was sitting around ’s room eating their breakfasts waiting for some kind of explanation from and . The girls were still mad but the lads wanted to know what was going on after seeing and together last night.
“Okay, I’m going to tell you what has been going on with me and ” said putting his toast down “About a year ago, told me she didn’t love me anymore, she didn’t want me and didn’t want anything but my money and my name”. “ that isn’t ” butted in. “ please let him talk” said. “She has slept in the guest room down the hall from our bedroom for the past eleven months. She leaves and goes away with friends all the time and I have been footing the bill for it because she thinks she deserves to have me pay for everything” tried to stay calm as he told everyone what had been going on over the past year with . His friends looked at him like they couldn’t believe it there was no way was like this. It was the same look had on her face when told her. Finally the confused looks turned to ones of sadness, one of their best friends was hurting for a year and none of them knew or noticed. had trained to play nice when they were out together but now she didn’t love him anymore. “I thought she would come back around, I mean she loved me once right? All of her feelings couldn’t have died” looked down at his hands “But they did and she truly only wants me for my fame and fortune”
“I can’t believe you have been dealing with this for a year ” said “You should have…I don’t know even what you could have done”. “I found someone else who loves me” said looking at “I love her more than anything in this world. She makes me so happy and now is doing everything in her power to mess it up”. “She is going to try and ruin us” said “And I know you think we did something bad but left a long time ago”. “We just want to be happy and together” said taking ’s hand into his “Please be happy for us and help us with this”
“I’m happy for you ” said giving and a smile “You look happy and if makes you happy I want you together. I won’t go against though that you have to do by yourself”. “I understand that” said nodding “I know she is one of your best friends, I won’t make you chose but we need to deal with her. She can’t do this to me anymore”. “I agree , you and need a divorce she can’t treat you like a bank and expect you to just play along” said “You need to be happy too”
Everyone agreed with , as much as they couldn’t believe and didn’t even want to believe it they knew that needed to make himself happy and leaving was the best way to start. “Okay I’m going to go and pack my stuff then I will come back here and we can leave for the next stop” said kissing before leaving the room.
was packing her things when her cell phone beeped telling her she had a text message, “You aren’t going to be able to keep him”. sighed wasn’t going to make this easy no matter how much she didn’t love anymore. If she had just stuck around and heard his offer maybe she would have left quietly but there was no chance of that now.
A little over an hour later everyone was waiting in the lobby to get on the bus to take them to Cork for the next show. There was a media circus outside the hotel since the news came out.
“Okay, straight to the bus, don’t stop for anything” Dave said as they all started walking for the door. stopped and stood with David, her and David were always the last two to head for the bus. “Babe, come here” said holding out his hand for her to take.

He wrapped his arm around her waist and prepared to make a run for the bus.
After everyone was safely on the bus, David went to to talk to her. “I’m gonna take over for the next two weeks” David said giving her a smile “You’re gonna be dealing with enough, you don’t need to worry about these lads, well maybe just one of them”. “Thanks David” said giving him a hug. “No problem love” David said getting up and going to the front of the bus.
walked back to where was. He was playing a video game with and was reading a magazine. She was happy and shared a bus because she wasn’t sure she could handle being in the bus with right now. Even though she knew what was going on, still felt like was judging and wasn’t like they were saying.
“, I’m done you’re already cheating on a video game” said laughing and tossing the controller at . “Oh come on ” said laughing along with . looked over and saw standing in the doorway, he smiled and walked over to her.
“Hi” he whispered “I want a nap, care to join me” nodded and followed to the bunks closer to the back of the bus.

She quickly ended up falling asleep.

But also knew this would die down and everything would get sorted. He didn¹t tell about his meeting but he was meeting with his lawyer to get the divorce papers going and to get measures in place so would have to produce DNA evidence to prove the child she was carrying was actually his.
“Baby wake up” whispered in her ear and softly kissed her lips. stirred from her sleep and smiled at as she opened her eyes “Hey babe”! moved so he was laying on top of and kissed her again but this time not so softly. When he finally pulled away they were both breathless. smiled at and kissed the tip of her nose.

“You¹re what” said giving a strange look. “I was talking with my parents and they are coming to the last show and no one cares about any of this in hun, you can go there be safe and go outside if you want when you want”! explained “And it is only 4 more days and I¹m done”! “Really?” asked nodded “And they don¹t mind me coming?” “Not even a little bit, my mum and dad love you” said “They always have, sometimes I thought they loved you more then me when we were younger” laughed and grabbed her suitcase. She didn¹t want to be away from but this would be perfect. She wouldn¹t be away from long and she would have a break from this madness. and quickly packed her things and headed downstairs to the car. David had made sure that no media was around back. He helped and pack the car before letting them head off. was knelt down on the floor of the car until decided it was okay and no one was following them.
“Well that is better” said stretching herself out “I¹m excited to see your parents”! “They are excited to see you too hun”! said grabbing ¹s hand with his free hand “Mum is delighted.

David paced back and forth in the lobby. promised to call when they arrived at his parents place. They had been gone for hours now and even making pit stops they should have been there by now. David tried both their cell phones and got nothing. He finally decided to call ¹s parents.
“Hello?” said answering the phone. “Hi , it is David. Did and arrive yet?” David asked praying they had just forgotten to call him. “No David they haven¹t yet. I¹m beginning to get worried because I assumed they would have been here a couple of hours ago.” said getting even more worried since David was calling. “I¹m sure they just stopped somewhere don¹t worry”! David said trying to keep calm because he didn¹t want her to worry since they could very well be perfectly fine and just got caught up doing something else. “Okay well hopefully they will be here soon and I will get them to call you as soon as they come in”! said. “Thank you , see you a few days”! David said hanging up the phone.
David went and talked to another one of the roadies. David was worried he didn¹t have a good feeling about and being gone with all this bad media they were getting. He hoped everything was going to be okay.

His face was bloody from a gash to his face and the car seems to be pressed down onto his legs. began to cry, she didn¹t know what to do because she couldn¹t move. “ baby can you hear me?” said as loud as she could. Nothing back so she tried again “”! Nothing.
looked out the window shield the truck that had hit them was gone. started to sob. She didn¹t know if was dead or alive, she couldn¹t move and no one seemed to coming their way to help them. It seemed like hours when a car finally drove up behind them. The people in the car quickly got out and ran to see what was going on. “Call the police Mike”! heard a female voice call out “Oh my god it is and oh his girlfriend. How are you doing hun?

It was quiet road lined with beautiful lush trees. looked to her right to see a stone fence and iron gate. Behind the gate was large old house. It was grand with a porch that wrapped all the way around the front of the house. was in love and she didn¹t even know if it was for sell.

I just have a feeling about this house , this is the house me and are suppose to be in”! said rubbing her tummy. “Then I say we go home and get Mr broken leg on the hunt”! said getting back into the car.
Once back at home, told about the house and he quickly bought it up online and he had actually seen it the other day but passed over it because he thought it would be too much work but if wanted it she was going to get it.
called the agent for the house and got them a showing for the evening. This was going to be ¹s first outing since the accident! It took some effort from to get into the car but the four soon set off to have dinner in town then go see the house had fallen in love with.
“Now, I must warn you this house has been empty for 10 years so it is going to need work and a very good cleaning”! the agent informed them as they waited for her to unlock the doors. and entered the house as helped up the stairs.
Once entered the house, he felt a sense of home and warmth. Maybe was right maybe this was suppose to be their home where they bought up their children.
“ you feel it right?” said walking up to him smiling. “I do baby” said giving her a quick kiss “This is our house”! “So I will be drawing up the papers then?” the agent asked. “Yes as soon as you can so we can get the workers in here to begin fixing the place up”! said “This house is going to be amazing”! “I¹m so excited!” squealed “I love you ”! “I love you more”! said giving her that famous grin.
¹s mobile went off telling him he had gotten a text message. He looked at his phone and saw that it was from . He hadn¹t heard from her since before the accident.
We need to talk
“Who is it from ?” asked “, she wants to talk” said “I think my lawyer has been in touch with hers”! “I¹m sure she is probably freaking out then”! said. “Oh I would be quite sure of that”! said “But lets go home and I will call ask him who we can get to make this place perfect for us”! “I like the plan”! said helping him to the car before had to help him get in. “I cannot wait until this cast is off”! complained “It is damn itchy”! Everyone in the car laughed. The agent told them she would have the papers ready for them to sign tomorrow so hopefully they would have the house by the end of the week.
was giddy all the way home. just smiled. He loved that he was going to have her with him forever, have their dream house and now they were even having a baby together. decided as soon as his divorce was final he was going to ask to marry him. Why he didn¹t fall in love with her years ago was beyond him, he must have just been that stupid and didn¹t see what was right in front of him.
Once they arrived home, went into the study and closed the door so he could call , he was hoping she would be a grown up about everything but lord knows how she was going to react. The phone rang three times before she picked up.
“A divorce ?” She yelled into the phone “I told you I would ruin you if you tried to divorce me!” shook his head, yes was never going to be a grown up about anything. “ I think you have done enough”! said staying calm “You have told everyone I cheated though you have been cheating on me for god knows how long, you told everyone it was and well knowing you you¹re probably not even carrying my baby but since I¹m a good guy I¹m going to pay you out”!
“You don¹t have enough money to pay me out ”! screamed “You will be paying me forever if you want me to go away”! “Nope, you¹re getting 4 million pounds people would kill for that of money”! said “You¹re going to take it and you can have the house if you want, no you take the house and sell it if you want, and then you¹re out of my life”! “Out of your life I¹m carrying your baby I will always be in your Life”! laughed. “I don¹t believe you”! said firmly. “You better believe it ”! as confidently as she could, since she was having her doubts about it now! “I don¹t so you¹re going to have to prove it to me with DNA”! said “Because I won¹t have you hold that over my head. I want to be happy and that means a life with not you”! “Oh Please ”! hissed “ is a nice girl but she is nothing compared to me”! “She is everything you never will be”! said getting mad “She is stunning, smart, funny, sexy, caring, loving and she is going to be a much better mother then you will ever be”! “What already knocked her up ”! asked. “Well not that it is any of your business but yes we having a baby together”! said. “Oh well isn¹t this nice your wife and girlfriend both pregnant at the same time”! said laughing to herself. “You¹re going to be my ex wife very soon ”! said before hanging up the phone.
He knew was going to put up a fight but he knew he had to stay strong for and his life was going to be better once was out of it. This poor child she was carrying just had to not be his, and hopefully the father was going to be someone who would take care of the child because otherwise would feel bad knowing the baby only had maybe it would be for the best if the child was his because then he could have custody and raise the baby with and their child. ¹s mind was acing when walked into the room with a cup of tea for him.
“What¹s on your mind baby”! asked. “I¹m not sure you even want to know”! said taking a sip of his tea.
Chapter Eleven
“Yes I want to know what you¹re thinking”! said “You look concerned”! “I am for the baby is carrying”! said placing his tea on the side table “If it is mine, I want to get full custody. Would you be okay with that?” “Yes, that baby if it is yours needs you and a stable family which we would give it. You know wouldn¹t she is too wrapped up in herself to truly care about the baby”! said. “That is one of the reasons I love you so much”! said smiling at her “You have a heart of gold”!
paced the floor, she couldn¹t believe she wasn¹t going to have to push anymore. He was actually happy and in love. remembered how much had loved her and how they had been happy. was the perfect boyfriend and husband and knew he was going to be an amazing dad to ¹s baby. rubbed her belly and let a tear from her eye. Two days ago she found out she had a miscarriage. She didn¹t know how to tell and now she was never going to know whose baby it was because she was really having doubts about it the dates weren¹t adding up for her. She knew was probably right and the baby probably wasn¹t his at all. The man who probably was the father wouldn¹t like her being pregnant either. She was broken hearted she had lost her baby but knew it was probably for the best because she wasn¹t ready for a baby especially when she didn¹t have someone there to help her. Yes if it was ¹s he would have helped her with anything she needed but he wouldn¹t be there he would be . was now realizing what a huge mistake she had made.
got into her car and drove to . When she arrived she went to her and ¹s house because she knew they weren¹t staying there and she needed sleep before she went to talk to . Sleep came quickly since it was already very late.
was up making breakfast for everyone when there was a knock at the door. was shocked to see when she opened the door.
“What do you want ?” asked “I need to talk to ” said softly. “Babe who is at the door?” asked coming up the hall on his crutches. “It¹s ” said in almost a whisper. looked different to her. She looked human for the first time in awhile to . She was the cold hearted woman who was trying to ruin her life she looked like her old friend who needed a hug.
“Why have you shown up here? The lawyers will take care of everything then we can sign the papers and be done with it ”! said finally getting to the door.
“We need to talk ”! said “I need to tell you something”! “Come in ”! said moving to let walk into the house. “Would you like some tea?” “No thank you”! said walking into the living room. “I will get you a cup ”! said leaving them to it.
“What is it?” said sitting himself down on the sofa. “I just want enough money to take care of myself nicely for the rest of my life”! said sitting across from “I had a miscarriage the other day”! “Oh my god I¹m so sorry”! said looking at her concerned. saw the look in his eyes of heartbreak because he could have been the father.
“It is okay, I mean I know I would have been an okay mum but I¹m not ready”! said holding back her tears “I need to sort myself out. I don¹t think you were the father , the dates just don¹t add up properly”! “I would have loved the baby and taken care of the both of you”! said trying to take in what was telling him. “I know you would have and that is one the things that makes you truly Amazing”! said wiping her eyes “ is so lucky. I know I made a huge mistake but I think you are probably meant to be with her instead”!
“I really love her ”! said sighing “I did love you though”! “And I loved you too but I¹m just not what you need and is”! said “I want you to be happy now and I¹m going to move on. I think I might go and see my friends in America”!
“That could be a good break for you ”! said giving her a soft smile “I¹m glad you have come around with everything”! “It all hit me last night when I got off the phone with you. I knew I had to tell you about the baby being gone and I can¹t expect stuff from you when I don¹t deserve it”! said drying her eyes “I¹m gonna be okay and you¹re gonna the perfect husband and father to a girl who loves you more then I think I ever could”! “Thank you ”! said “I¹m truly sorry about the baby though”! “I know you are and thank you for that”! said getting from the chair she was sitting in “I¹m gonna go please don¹t get up, my lawyer will be talking to yours soon. Lets get all our past out of the way so you can have your amazing future” “Get yourself sorted and you are in for a bright one too”! said getting up “Give me a hug”! “You¹re too good of a person ”! said hugging “Good bye ”! “Bye ”! said watching her walk out of the house.
“Is gone ?” said coming back into the living room. “Yeah, everything is going to be much better now”! said smiling at “Though sadly she lost the baby, had a miscarriage”! “Oh is she okay?” asked worried. “She seems to be fine with it babe”! said getting himself comfortable on the sofa again “She is going to be okay now. She is probably going to go to America, have a new start”! “Good for her”! said sitting down with “She needs it”! “She does and now we can just focus on the three of us”! said rubbing ¹s belly “I cannot wait for you to start showing, you¹re going to be so cute”! laughed at “I just can¹t wait until your cast is off so I can send you for all my crazy cravings and so we can be set up our house perfectly”! “Yes that is what I¹m going to do today call the agent make sure all the papers are ready for us to sign”! said grabbing his phone “Weren¹t you making breakfast?” “Yeah I may have burnt it”! said frowning at . laughed. “My girl isn¹t a cook”! kissed softly on the lips “but she is all mine”!
Later that day and signed the papers and got their dream house. was calling builders and designers already to make the house perfect before the baby came. couldn¹t have been happier everything was going to be perfect. She wished hadn¹t lost the baby but things happen for a reason and wasn¹t meant to have a baby right now. She would have one when the time was right and with the right person. had everything she wanted right now, , a new house and a baby on the way. Nothing could take the smile off her face.
