"HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO ME, LAYLA? HUH?

AFTER ALL, I LOVED YOU AND TOOK CARE OF YOU WHEN YOU WERE DOWN AND WEAK!

I SHOULD'VE NEVER ASKED YOU TO BE MY ONE LOVE!

NOW, YOU WANT TO LIE AND CHEAT ON ME, EH? THAT IS WHAT OUR RELATIONSHIP IS ABOUT NOW.... I CAN'T DEAL WITH YOU ANYMORE, WE ARE DONE, YOU LIAR! TELL BRIAN THAT HE CAN HAVE YOU NOW, YOU SLUTTY BITCH!"

I shot up from my bed quickly as I was sweating rapidly fast. I couldn't stop breathing fast and my palms were shaking. I felt myself crying immediately and I realised.

'It was only a fucking nightmare.'

I panted and turned to my side to see my clock ringing like crazy. It was 9:36. I ran a hand through my tangled hair and sighed. I saw dried mascara stains on my pillow and my make-up as well. I knew that I looked like a train wreck times 1,000.

Shit! I felt my head pounding like crazy. It must've been another bloody headache. I slowly got up and headed outside my room. I could smell the scent of chocolate- chip pancakes filling my flat.

I saw my mum, Elizabeth, humming to some random song as she flipped a medium sized pancake. I quietly walked down the stairs so Mum didn't hear me.

When I was walking to the couch, I tripped on my shoes that I was wearing last night and fell hard on my knees.

Mum jumped at the sound and turned around to see me on the ground, moaning and crying in pain.

She gasped as she ran to me, I felt her smooth soft arms wrap around me as I tried to stand up.

As I looked up to to see Mum's shocked face, I cried harder than normally.

"Sweetheart, what's g-going on? You looked a mess and you're shaking? Tell Mummy please!" She cried as she held me closer.

I wiped my tears and sniffed as I looked into her teary eyes that filled with sadness.

"M-Mum, it was last night. I... I don't if I should even talk to you about it. It's very... personal to me, but I'll be fine. I'll be okay." I smiled weakly as I hugged my mum tightly.

"Oh, well, you have to tell me about it later on, dear. I need to see what's been going on with you lately! I hate to see you this way! If you're sad, your poor mum is sad!" She pretended to cry and I giggled like I was 6 years old again.

"Oh Mummy, you're so lovely! Now, let's get off this floor and eat those delicious pancakes of yours!" I stood up with my Mum as I kissed her cheek.

She smiles warmly and headed back to the kitchen.

"Darling, do you want to go shopping with me today at Biba? I wanted to spend more time with you.." She asked as she grabbed some small plates and put them on my brown table.

"Uhh, sure! Why not! Shopping is fun, I guess." I giggled as I got out orange juice from the fridge and sat down in my chair.

"Oh great! Well, eat up, hun! We are going to do a lot of shopping today!" She beamed as she gave me my plate of pancakes.

"Wonderful." I said sarcastically and chuckled before taking a bite of my pancake.

------------~~~~~~~~~~~~~~------

After breakfast, I headed upstairs and pulled out a denim jean shirt and jeans as well. I took a short shower and combed my hair out a little so I won't look like a mess.

I put on my clothes quickly and brushed my teeth. Later on, I put on some black mascara and pink lipstick.

I grabbed my purse and my shoes as I headed downstairs again.

I saw Mum at the door and telling me to hurry up and come on.

I sighed as I locked my door and headed outside to Mum's car. Mum drove this time and the whole car ride was silent.

Slowly, I started to imagine where I was last night. I was in the exact seat where Roger came up to my door and tried to talk to me. I felt hot tears in my eyes as I felt a strong hand shaking me.

"HELLO! EARTH CALLING! Layla, we are here, sweetie!" Mum shouted at me as I snapped out of my day dream.

We soon entered Biba and lots of beautiful girls and boys were everywhere. Mum decided to take me to the dress area. I later started to look at the cute dresses in front of me.

Suddenly in the corner of my eye, I saw 3 boys that I recognized. I gasped slightly as I saw Freddie, Brian, and Roger talking with each other as they were looking in the men's section.

I felt myself panic again and I hid in between the clothes hoping that neither Roger or Brian would find me.

I started to move around carefully as I headed towards Mum.

Out of nowhere, I felt two strong hands on my shoulders, I jumped at the feeling of those hands. I closed my eyes tightly and turned around before seeing Brian and Roger looking happy and worried at me.

"Layla?" Brian said happily.

"Sweetheart?" Roger exclaimed as he smiled at me.
