{Harry's POV}

As odd as it sounds, I think the label actually liked the whole scandal about Cailin. It brought more attention to the band and that's exactly what they wanted.

They wanted to control everything that involved us and there was nothing we could do about it. It just sucked that Cailin had to suffer because of it. I had my share of fights with the label. They were lucky cause she didn't fight back.

I remember when they told me I had to date Lia. I told them to fuck themselves and left the meeting. Louis ended catching up to me and convincing me to go back and just talk it out. But I hated the idea.

I thought Lia was going to be this snotty little girl but thankfully she wasn't. She became my best friend. She somehow made me stop drinking as much as I used to. I don't get into so many fights like I used to. Anyone would think I was in love with her, but I wasn't.

I wish I was. She was perfect. I felt nothing but a friendship with her.

Then she had to go ahead and ruin everything with falling in love with me. I didn't want to loose her, so I let her believe that I felt the same way.

" did you see how many people are outside?" Louis said taking me away from my thoughts.

I looked up to see Cailin and the guys jumping up and down in excitement.

" Zayn do you wanna show Cailin the dance routine we came up with?" I smirked.

" you guys can't even dance" Cailin said confused.

" that is a rumor" Zayn shook his head lying.

I got away from the wall I was leaning against and positioned myself beside Zayn, in front of Cailin and Louis.

Immediately we began dancing the dance we had come up with in the middle of the night last night out of boredom. I had to admit, the dance moves were horrible but seeing Cailin laugh but it all worth it.

She reminded me a bit of Lia. But there was something about she that was different. Maybe it was because I didn't think of her the same way I thought of Lia. Lia was my best friend and that was that. But to Cailin, there was something more.

" you guys are even worse dancers than I thought" she laughed.

The dressing room door opened and in walked a woman with a box in her hands. The box had holes in it and a blue bow wrapped around it.

" this is a gift from a fan that is in the audience" the woman said.

While Cailin went up to the woman to retrieve the box, we all looked at the strage box. Cailin took a seat back on the couch and began untieing the bow.

Asoon as she took on the top of the box she let out a squeal, a happy squeal.

" what is it?" Louis asked.

" a kitty" Cailin smiled as she grabbed the kitten out of the box.

" no way" Zayn smiled widely as he yook a seat next to Cailin and pet the kitten.

Zayn was literally obsessed with cats, evenore when they were kittens. If he wasn't in the band, traveling alot, he'd probably have tons of cats living with him.

Louis and I always teased him about it but he didn't mind. He wasn't ashamed about it like most guys would be.

" what should we call him?" Zayn asked.

" we're actually keeping him?" I asked raising up an eyebrow.

I just wasn't the guy that was close to animals. I never had a pet growing up so they just seemed annoying to me.

" of course we are" Cailin playfully glared at me.

Zayn took the kitten from Cailin's arms and played with it.

" how about whiskers?" Louis suggested.

" too predictable" Zayn said.

" how about Boots?" Cailin smiled.

" perfect" Zayn nodded.

For some reason seeing all of them bond over the stupid kitten bothered me. I didn't see what all the hype was about.

" you guys can follow me" some guy said from the door.

All of us left the dressing room and followed the guy. We stopped when we reached a curtain. We were behind the curtain that would reveal us to an audience.

" please welcome All Oblivion!" the host introduced.

The curtain opened and we began playing the song. We had decided to play the song Cailin had helped me out writing. This was the first single we let out together. The radio was playing it non stop since we released it last week and it reached to number two on Itunes in just a days which had never happened to us before.

I looked over at Cailin singing and could tell that she finally felt comfortable on stage. In the beginning when we started performing on stage with her, it was obvious to me that she was nervous. The way that she played with her hair and fidgeting her fingers. It was cute and annoying at the same time.

As soon as the song finished, the host, who's name I can't seem to remember, walked over to us hugging Cailin and the rest of us.

" so you all have an announcement for us?" the host asked with a smile.

" yes we do" Cailin smiled back.

" we are here to announce that our album comes out next month, August 4th" Louis said.

Everyone in the audience cheered as they heard our news.

" that's not all, we are also going on our first headlining tour starting August 15th" Cailin smiled.

The audience went crazier.

" tickets go on sale midnight tonight" I said as instructed by James.

After a couple more questions we were finally away from the stage and headed out the building.

As we got into our car, my phone started to ring. I looked at the screen and put it back into my pocket. It was Lia. Lately she had more and more clingier. I knew what she must have been calling about. More rumors on me cheating on her. They were mostly all true. But she used to never pay attention to them which was perfect for me.

But lately, she'd been more and more bothered by them.

I knew that we'd end up fighting about it if I answered the phone, and fighting in the car with everyone watching me was not what I wanted right now, not what I needed.

Instead of going home, they dropped me off at the studio like I requested, good thing that my car was already parked there. I liked going there on a daily basis. The recording studio was reserved just for us so I could usually go there anytime I wanted. I didn't mind going there alone, I actually preferred it that way. To be honest I didn't even like writing with co-writers. At least until I started writing with Cailin.

At first she was terrible, but then she started getting better. Even though I would never admit it to no one, she was actually the one person I enjoyed writing with.

How my attitude towards her changed, I have no idea.

I sat down on one of the chairs and took out a pad to write on.

Slowly, after I came up with a beat, the lyrics started popping up in my mind.

I remember what you wore on the first day

You came into my life and I thought hey

You know, this could be something

'Cause everything you do and words you say

You know that it all takes my breath away

And now I'm left with nothing

So maybe it's true that I can't live without you

And maybe two is better than one

But there's so much time to figure out the best of my life

And you've already got me coming undone

And I'm thinking two is better than one

It was a good start. I looked up at the clock and saw that it was already one in the morning. I put the pad in one of the drawers that we kept the songs and headed out of the studio. When I got outside, there were about five guys with cameras flashing them towards me.

This was getting old and irritating. Every time I saw them I wanted to literally punch them to make them leave me the fuck alone but we all knew that would only cause them to chase after more.

I got inside my car and drove off.

Thankfully in the front of our apartment building, there were no photographers were there. I parked the car in the parking lot and headed up to the apartment.

When I got inside the apartment, I half expected Zayn, Louis and Cailin to goofing around, but everything was dark and quiet.

They had probably all went out for the night.

As soon as I put my car keys on the counter, my phone started ringing again. I dug it out of my pockets and looked at the screen.

It was Lia again.

" hey" I answered

" hey? That's what you have to say to me after a whole day of ignoring my calls Harry?" Lia scoffed on the phone.

" I was busy" I said.

" What is going on with you lately?" she softly asked.

I knew what was going on in her head. She was starting to realize that it would be better to give up on me. She was thinking that I wasn't worth all the hassle.

" I just have a lot of stuff on my mind" I said.

" please don't push me away like you have everyone else in your life" she begged.

I stayed quiet. She knew too much about and I sometimes regretted telling her all those things. I couldn't hide from her the times that I wanted to.

" talk to me, that's what I'm here for Harry. I'm tired of you not talking to me about things like you used to" she cried out.

" if you're so tired then why the hell are you still trying?!" I blurted out.

Before she could even answer, I hung up on her. She deserved better but I just couldn't give it to her.

Out of anger with myself, I threw my phone on the wall making it crack and break immediately.

" what's going on?" I heard a groggy voice say over to my right.

I looked over to the hallway and saw Cailin rubbing her eyes awake as she walked closer towards where I was. standing.

" nothing" I shook my head.

" I know you enough to know that there's obviously something wrong" she said quietly.

Just like Lia, she always wanted to know what was wrong with me.

Boots, the kitten, followed behind her and leaned against her feet. She quickly picked up the kitten and let it sit in her arms.

I stayed quiet. I didn't want to talk to her about it either.

" Zayn and Louis went out" she said leaning against a wall.

" why didn't you go with them?" I asked picking up the broken pieces of my cell phone and putting them on top of the kitchen counter.

Cailin put Boots back on the ground and he scurried off into the other room. I guess he didn't like me as much as I didn't like him.

Cailin looked at the pieces and seemed shocked. I knew why. She wasn't used to this side of me. The destructive side.

" I didn't think it was a good idea after all the scandal" she answered after a couple seconds of looking at the broken cell phone.

Suddenly her phone, which was in her hands, started ringing. She looked at the screen and then looked back at me.

" it's Lia" Cailin mumbled.

" don't answer" I shook my head.

Cailin looked at the phone again and then put it down on the counter.

" so that's what all the yelling was about?" Cailin asked.

" don't Cailin" I said hoping she would just drop the subject.

" did you guys fight again?" she innocentely asked.

Whether I liked it or not, Cailin had already witnessed a couple of fights. Sometimes when we were fighting over the phone and other times when we were fighting face to face.

Talking about my fight with Lia reminded me that she knew everything. She knew all the shit that I had gone through in the past and there was no way I could make her forget it.

I looked back at Cailin and her facial expression was the same way when she was worried.

" Cailin?" I said as I walked closer to her until I was right in front of her.

" yeah" she responded barely audible.

" distract me" I whispered.

Before she could react I smashed my lips against hers. Immediately she reacted by kissing my back and wrapping her hands around my neck.

I slammed her body against the wall behind her and her hands tugged at my hair only making me want her more. I picked up her legs and she wrapped them around my waist.

My lips quickly made their way down her neck and her legs tighten around my waist.

" your room?" she asked in a way that made me go even crazier.

Without even responding I carried her into my room and shut the door behind me.
