"You can look now." whispered in her ear.
"SURPRISE!"A huge shout made flinch as she blinked wearily,and walked back slightly into 's chest.
" you...did you do this for me?" grinned at and nodded,before taking her hand and leading her over to his friends.
" !" shouted as he pulled into a warm embrace.She could smell the alcohol on him,and shuddered slightly. stared at in a knowing way.
had almost lost her brother in a drink drive accident,and since then hadn't touched a drop of alcohol.
Thankfully her brother didn't get killed,but was the only person had ever told.He was the only one there for her,when her brother was having a 'bad day',and the doctor's said he might not pull through.
"Hey mateage!" 's deep voice travelled to 's ear drum.
"Hey dude" giggled as playfully messed up her hair.
"So hows the birthday going?" asked,as he stopped screwing 's hair up.
"It's great thanks.I'm still waiting for my present from you guys though!" poked her tongue out and giggled slightly.
"Well erm...about that..." started,rubbing the back of his head as he tried to think quickly.
"My presents erm...ooo i remember now.I left them at my house. your present is there too.Don't you remember we bought them together and then erm...left them at mine." was surprised at how quickly he had come up with a excuse,a lame excuse,but still a excuse.
and left the small venue that had rented out especially for ,and supposedly her friends.But when looked around the crowded room,she didn't recognise anyone.
"So what's your excuse ?" sighed as she sat down on a unstable looking chair.
"I don't have one." replied blankly.
looked down towards the floor.It wasn't even the fact that the boys hadn't got her a present that annoyed .She wasn't that shallow.It was just the way they HAD to lie.Why couldn't they just come clean and tell straight up,they forgot to get her a present.
cupped her face with his hand and carefully forced her head upwards,so as she looked him in the eye.
"I'm saving it till tonight!" whispered in her ear,as he trailed off in search of some drinks.
***Later that night***
Crisps,popcorn,chocolate,sweets and cans were discarded on 's hotel room floor.(which paid for of course!)
"So what do you wanna watch next?" asked a sleepy .
"I...erm...whatever" yawned,moving closer to on the bed.
"Awww if your tired then go to sleep." said,as he moved his arm and placed it loosely around 's shoulder's.
"No i'm fine.How about you put on?" muttered,burying her face in 's chest.
***
laughed loudly and felt squirm.He looked down at the sleeping beauty that was now lying on his lap.Her long brown hair was covering her face,and preventing from seeing the eyes he loved so much.
"mmm... ?" whispered,as she rubbed her eyes and turned her body around so she was now looking up at .She stretched her body out as she still lay on 's lap.She shivered slightly,looking at made her feel safe. looked down at in a protective way as shivered once again.
"Are you cold babe?"
"Not really." giggled as she realised how stupid she must look.
"I've got something for you." whispered in 's ear as he carefully moved himself off the sofa,causing to flop backwards onto it.
A few moments later he returned carrying a small velvet box.
"Open it." willed as he passed the box to .
traced the soft velvet texture of the box before opening it.
'To my princess .I'm passing on a precious stone to the most precious thing in my life.I love you for eternity. xxx' read out loud as she held the necklace in her hand.It was completely stunning and knew it must have cost alot of money.It was a plain silver chain with a 'precious stone'. allowed her eyes to scan over the words inscribed into the back of the stone.She had never read something so beautiful in all her life and felt the salty tears surface.
"Do you like it?Coz if you don't i can take it back." asked anxiously,shifting nervously on the spot he was stood on.
"Of course i like it .But...i can't accept it.This must have cost you sooo much money." said,putting the necklace back into it's box and carefully closing the velvet lined box.
"It cost me a fair amount.But your worth it .Besides you have to have it coz i kinda can't return it,coz it's been personalised!" flashed a cheeky smile as she realised he had lied about taking it back in the first place.
"Ok ok .Just to let you know,i love you too!" winked at as he placed the necklace on .
"I knew you would look gorgeous in it." exclaimed.
"Awww thanks .Oh and thanks a million zillion times for the present.I'll never forget it y'know" kissed on the cheek as she got up to get changed.
sighed and let himself fall backwards onto the sofa.He knew he would have to tell her sooner or later.
***
"Hey what's up?"As soon as returned to the room,she sensed something was bugging .
"Earlier today, told and that...he's leaving Busted.I don't know what i'm gonna do without the band ,y'know i knew we were gonna split,nothing lasts forever,i just didn't expect it to all be over so soon." could feel the tears building up,which made him feel stupid.He had always been so strong,and never cried,at least not in front of .
" .It's ok to cry.I'm not going to laugh and think your pathetic." knew him so well,and always knew exactly what to say.
walked into 's,now open,arms and allowed the tears to fall from his eyes.
He did feel better afterwards though,and made him feel alot more comftable in the situation.
"So...yesterday,at my party,he had told you he was leaving Busted,and still carried on partying as if nothing had happened?" asked,after had calmed down.
just nodded and tore himself away from the warm and loving embrace he sooo wanted to stay in.
"I'm gonna go . and are probably gonna be round here later anyway,with the presents they bought you last night.All i'm saying is,don't be too dissapointed.There's only so much you can get from a corner shop at 1:30 in the morning!" joked before kissing on the forehead and leaving.
settled into the sofa and let her eyes gaze at the empty space in front of her.
"Yo Yo Yo.What's up ?"
giggled at 's voice.
walked up behind ,wrapped his arms around her and kissed her cheek.
"Happy Birthday babe." whispered in 's ear as he placed a wrapped up item in 's grasp.
" you shouldn't have." tried her best to sound appreciative.
smiled,completely believing was genuinely happy with his gift,and looked down to 's hands.
A crumpled up black 'Etnies' top,with a massive hole in the sleeve,lay in 's palm.
"Now next time me and you sleep together,you can walk around the house in your underwear and that t-shirt,and look really sexy like they always do on T.V." grinned cheekily.
"WHAT?When have me and you ever slept together?" quizzed.
"Last night...In my dreams!" "Ewww ...gross!" threw a look of disgust.
"It's ok baby.You can tell me all about your dreams tonight in bed." grinned,knowing he was freaking out.
"Ok that's enough.Thanks for the present and everything...but your weird.Oh and by the way,any dream i may have involving you,must be a nightmare!" giggled as she pushed out the hotel room.
turned to once he reached the door frame.
"I wuv you." chuckled as closed the door on him.
A few moments later and there was another knock at the door.
" i swear if that's you i'm gonna ki..." suddenly felt herself blush as she realised it wasn't at the door,it was .
"Oh ,hey dude." muttered,as she felt her face burn with embarrasment.
"Heya chick.I just came to give you this." handed a crumpled up piece of paper.
started to unravel the piece of paper when stopped her by pushing his hand on top of her's.
"Before you read that you have to promise me you won't get mad at me."
looked at wearily before continuing to unravel the scrunched up piece of paper.
[Chapter 2]
swallowed hard,a large,dry lump.She willed the tears away and tried to keep calm.
sat down on the sofa and placed a shaking hand on top of her flat stomach.
"Y...You...Why didn't you tell me before?" stuttered,finding it difficult to find any oxygen to breath.
"I couldn't. and said it would be best if you didn't know."
"So does that mean and ...aren't my real parents?" 's voice shook as she asked .
"I'm sorry .None of your 'family' are blood relation to you." apologised,finding this pretty hard to tell .
But she hadn't hit him yet,which could only be a good thing...right?
wasn't sure how to react.She had just found out that everyone she had once thought were her family,were infact complete strangers.
And . was so mad at him for not telling her,but on the other hand,she could see why he did it. hated herself for always being able to see the positive side to people instead of the negative.
" i think you should leave." whispered as she wiped a stray tear from her emotionless face.
"I understand.Just to let you know,if i had it my way,i would have told you straight away." stated as he closed the door,leaving to revel.
A precious stone,used Etnies t-shirt and a brother she never knew she had.
Overall it hadn't been a bad day for so far!
[Chapter 3]
" . you need to check out now.The cleaners need to come and erm...clean!haha." chirped as he pushed open the door of the hotel room.
" ?Are you here?" shouted?
looked in every room until the only one left was the bathroom.
shuddered as his imigination took over,instantly thinking the worst.
" .Don't even think about opening that door." sighed and a smile danced across his face as he realised was ok.
A few seconds later the door opened.
"Pft doesn't a girl get any privacy these days?" tutted at as she plonked herself down on the sofa.
"Where have you been ?I've been calling you and texting you for the last hour." questioned.
"My phones switched off."
reached over the small coffee table that stood in front of the pair and picked up 's mobile.He pressed the button firmly and smiled as 's welcome note flashed infront of his eyes;
' is THE ULTIMATE Sex God!'
opened up 's inbox and saw his name five times,to signify his five text messages.
"Ooo you've got a text from !" said excidetly,raising to his feet as tried to snatch the phone off him.
" give me the phone!" whined,terrified would find out the truth.
"You... ...he's...your...brother?" stuttered.
nodded and felt the tears well up.She had won the battle last time,but this time knew she wouldn't beable to stop the tears.
"How long have you known?" asked.A look of disbelief was spread across his face.
"A few hours." 's face grew in even more disbelief.
But had problems of his own to follow...
[Chapter 4]
"It is said that 's ex, ,is mortified,as she felt really was 'The One'..."
winced as guilt took over her body.This was all her fault.If it wasn't for her, and would still be together.
" i'm sorry." apologised as woke up in her bed.
smiled at .
had been caught going round 's,and once the press found out that 's companion was female,the speculation and stories started.
Last night stayed round 's.He crashed out in her room,whilst she opted for the sofa.
" ..." started.
"I know.I know.You hate me right?But honestly i am sorr..." was cut short by 's soft lips being pressed against her's.
felt 's tongue explore the inside of 's mouth,causing to moan slightly into 's mouth.
opened up her eyes,half way through the kiss and pulled back.
" .This is wrong.We're friends." stated.
"No we're not .We're more than friends.I've never seen best friends as close as us,and i'm sure we're no exception. you might have been blinded from it before,but it's clear to me now.We are not meant to be friends.We're meant to be more than that.Besides our friendship is pretty much screwed now anyway!" giggled.
" I..." started again.
forced his lips against 's,using alot more force and passion than last time.He pushed back onto the sofa and lowered himself on top of her.As his lips caressed her's,his hands found themselves running through her soft hair.
" ,you wanna take this into the bedroom?" asked,catching her breath as she looked up into 's eyes.
"I thought you'd never ask!" smiled at ,as she took his hand and guided him into her bedroom.
***The next morning***
rolled over and blinked wearily.There she was,the girl of his dreams,lying naked,next to him!
Her hair looked fairer as the sun beamed down on her perfect body. looked at her face intently for a few seconds before his eyes wandered down.The necklace he had given her was glistening in the bright sunlight. rolled herself over,into 's welcoming arms.
"Hey sexy!" whipsered into 's neck.
"Hi." replied wearily.
***
A few moments later was downstairs,wearing her birthday present from .The absolouetly amazing Etnies t-shirt *hint the sarcasm in my writing as i type this!*
felt 's warmth embrace her and his mouth nibble at her neck.
"Oh by the way i still owe you something."
"No you don't .The necklace was enough." said,stroking 's cheek.
"BIRTHDAY BEATS!" shouted as he pounded 's arm.
