Chapter 10 - " so why didn't you tell him?"

In just one week, I had done too many interviews to keep count of. All of them consisted of my comeback and what was to come. It only made me more excited to release my album. My fans still existed and they seemed more supportive than ever.

All I had done this week was work work work. I didn't get to spend much time with Roy, making me feel guilty. I hated being away from her so much. But I knew I couldn't bring her around with me to these interviews. Harry had warned me.

Harry...

The kiss...

I hadn't spoken to him him since that night. Not on purpose, but because we were too busy. I was busy talking about my comeback album and Harry was busy promoting his new album as well. I caught myself wanting to text him in order to hear from him but I stopped myself. I was stronger than this. I became my own person without him. So why did I feel like I was falling into my same old patterns with him?

I could hear the music pounding as my driver drove closer to the club Liam told me about. It was his birthday today so we all decided we'd celebrate. Since Liam had been living with me in England, he had lots of friends who still hadn't seen him since he'd come back. He decided that throwing this part at this club was the best idea.

The driver stopped in front of the club. Before he could open the door for me I could already see the paparazzi with their cameras pointing at my car. I took a deep breath preparing for the frenzy. Ever since I announced my comeback, they haven't left me alone. Every where I went, they followed. I was scary at times. It reminded me of when I first started with All Oblivion. It was chaos.

My drivers opened the car door for me and gave me a hand, helping me get out of the car. The flashes started blinding me completely. I couldn't even open my eyes. I think the driver noticed because he started walking me towards the entrance of the club.

" thank you" I whispered to him as I walked past the bouncers leaving him behind.

The club was packed, but I quickly saw where Liam was having his private party.

" you're finally here!" Liam smiled as I walked to him.

" I wanted to put Roy to sleep" I smiled back.

" good" he said as he handed me a drink.

I took the drink and looked back up at him.

" now it's time for you to be a normal twenty-five year old and have some fun for a night" he laughed.

I smiled as I took a sip of my drink knowing he was completely right. So that was exactly what I did. I had fun with all of Liam's friends. We drank, we laughed, we had fun. 

This was exactly what I needed. Something to take my mind off of everything going on in my mind. The guilt of not being able to be with Roy as much. The thought of Harry and not knowing what was going to happen. The worry of not knowing if my career was going to relaunch.

As I'm talking to one of Liam's old friend, I see a familiar face in the corner of my eyes. I look over and see who it actually is.

Lia James.

It had been years since I saw her last. Lia still looked gorgeous. Her long blonde hair accented her olive skin tone perfectly. She hadn't aged a bit. Her smile was still polite. Her manners were still calm. Looking at her, I couldn't imagine her cheating on Harry. Then again, maybe that was she revenge.

Before I knew it, she looked over catching me staring at her. I looked back towards Liam's fried hoping she'd pretend nothing ever happened. I didn't want her to feel like she had an obligation to speak to me. I didn't want to talk to her at all. I didn't hate Lia, I never did. We were just two girl in love with the same guy. I just didn't know what to say to her if she ever did come up to me.

I walked out of the bathroom stall, I come face to face Lia. She seemed to be re-applying her lipstick as she looks at herself through the mirror. When I saw that it was her, I froze in place. I just didn't know how to react.

But then she made eye contact with me through the mirror. She quietly sighed. This was the day both of us avoided even though we knew it was bound to happen.

" hi" she said as she looked over at me.

I slowly walked towards the sink next to her.

" hey" I said back.

I opened the sink and quickly washed my hands wanting to get out of here as soon as possible. But then I noticed what Lia was doing. She wasn't in a rush to get away from me. Instead, she was stalling. She actually did what to be near me, talk to me.

I just didn't understand why.

" so you've met Kian..." she said with a half smile making me look up at her.

" yeah, he's a sweet kid" I smiled back.

" he can't stop talking about Roy" Lia laughed.

I laughed along with me, only because Roy couldn't stop talking about Kian either. They had become best friends without anyone meddling in.

After our laughter died down, awkward silence fell upon us. I got nervous so I said the first thing that came to my mind.

" you did great in your last movie" I said even though I hadn't even seen it, only the trailer.

" um thanks" she softly smiled.

Silence again.

I kind of felt like she wanted to say something to me but something else was holding her back. In a way I wanted to say something too. I wanted to know why she would cheat on Harry with Zayn. Out of all people Zayn, someone so close to Harry. Whether she realized it or not, I knew that it had affected Harry in so many ways.

" can I ask you a question?" LIa asked in a nervous tone.

I nodded wanting to run for the hills.

" why didn't you ever tell Harry about Roy?" she asked.

My heart stopped. My mouth dried up. I froze for the second time in her presence.

" I don't know what you're talking about" I shook my head after being able to compose myself.

" I know that Roy is his daughter" Lia said.

" Liam told you didn't he? I can't believe it" I gasped.

All I wanted to do in that moment was yell at Liam for not keeping my secret. I understood that Lia was his sister, but this was my secret to keep.

" of course he didn't, he would never do that to you" Lia shook her head.

" then how do you know?" I asked.

She looked at me for a couple of seconds before saying anything again, as if she was recollecting some memories.

" there was one night when Harry and I had gotten back together. The night that I told Harry that I was pregnant. He was in shock and scared. So he did what he does best. He went out and got drunk. I knew he was at a bar because he butt dialed me" Lia laughed at the painful memory.

I knew the night she was talking about. It was the night that Harry and I made Roy.

" I felt it. I knew that Harry had gone crawling back to you. I believed that Harry was going to leave my life again because of you even though I was carrying his baby. But he came back. I saw guilt in his eyes when he came back. That's when I realized that the only reason he was coming back was because of Kian. In reality he wanted to be with you and only you. Then a a year later, I see a picture of you and Roy. It was clear to me, yet Harry never put the pieces together" Lia shrugged.

I stayed quiet.

" so why didn't you tell him?" Lia asked.

" I tried" I confessed.

She looked at me confused.

" he wouldn't answer me calls" I said.

I could see Lia try to understand my confession. Trying to understand why Harry didn't listen to me. But I had her answer.

" he didn't want to leave his son. He's that kind of man. A man who didn't deserve what you did to him" I said.

Lia sighed as tears fell from her eyes.
