Kaydence's hands fall limply to her sides, as she lifts her head to look at me, and I don't know what to do or say. Actually, no scratch that. I do know what I want to say and what I want to do. I want to tell her how bad she broke me when she left or how angry I am at her. I want to yell at her, to say everything that has been bottled up in me for the last eleven months. I want to scream and ask her why she left me, why she just took off after the night we had with each other. I want to tell her I fucked countless girls while I was on tour, even though I hadn't because she was the only thing on my mind. I just want her to hurt. I want to hurt her, the way she hurt me.

But I don't do either one of those things. I can't seem to open my mouth and say how I feel, so instead I just stand there staring at her, my mouth hanging open. I keep wondering if I'm dreaming, if maybe I had fallen asleep on the jet and I'm just in the middle of one of my dreams right now. I move my hand to my upper thigh, pinching my leg lightly to check. Nope, not a dream.

Kaydence's mouth hangs open in just as much shock as I'm feeling, that I take the opportunity to take her in. She looks...different. Her hair is darker, a lot darker than it had been when I last saw her, which is why I probably hadn't recognized her. It's also a little shorter, stopping mid chest. Also, she has gained weight. Not in a bad way, but she has more curves then she had before, and her chest is perkier as well. I try not to look at the amount of cleavage that is now very noticeable, and bring my eyes up to meet hers. Her makeup is different too, she has more of that black shit around her eyes and it seems to make the light brown pop out even more, making it difficult to break eye contact with her.

"Is anyone going to tell me what the fuck she is doing here?" I say loudly, and Kaydence's shy demeanor changes instantly. Her back straightens as she lifts her head and sets her jaw.

"What am I doing here? I live here. What are you doing here?" She snaps at me, and then turns to look at Nicole. "What is he doing here?"

Nicole lifts her hands in surrender, backing away slightly and shaking her head. "I did not invite him, I had no idea he was coming here Kay, I swear."

"Kay?" I spit, looking between Nicole and Kaydence. "What the fuck is with the nickname? You're talking like you're all buddy now."

"We live together, Harry." Nicole answers me carefully.

I stare at Nicole, who looks to the floor and shuffles her feet in guilt. "Live together?" I turn to look at Kaydence, who is now leaning against the sink with her arms crossed over her chest, making her tits push up. Don't look. "Wait, Kaydence is your roommate?"

"Yes." Nicole sighs, rubbing the top of her forehead and shaking her head. "I was going to tell you when I went to visit."

"Fuck that!" I shout, and Nicole blinks at me in surprise. "We've been writing letters back and forth for months and you hadn't mentioned once that she was your roommate!"

"Wait you have been in touch with him?" Kaydence says beside me, looking to Nicole with a look of betrayal. "All this time you were talking to him?"

"Oh don't act so surprised, she was my friend first." I throw at her, and her eyes flicker to glare at me.

"She doesn't belong to you, dick." Kaydence fires back.

"Nor does she belong to you." I spit and Kaydence's jaw clenches as I can see her trying to bite her tongue.

"Can you both just relax for a second?" Nicole cuts in before I can say anything else, and looks between Kaydence and I. Kaydence nods once and I shrug, as Nicole moves to stand in between us.

"First of all I'm friends with both of you so shut the hell up. Second, Harry I was going to tell you I just wanted to do it in person. Kay, I didn't know how to tell you I was still talking to him after well, you know."

"No we don't know." I answer but Nicole ignores me, giving Kaydence a look with her eyes as if she can read her mind. Kaydence stares at her, then nods once before turning her attention to the broken plate on the floor.

"Okay, I don't understand how this happened." I state, and Kaydence rolls her eyes at me as she tucks her hair behind her eyes, and I'm aware of the new sets of piercings there too.

"You don't need to understand. You should probably just leave." Kaydence says, turning her back on me and I snort, just as she glances over her shoulder and looks at me as if she's never seen me before. I guess in a way she hasn't, she has never seen this side of me.

"I am here for Nicole, not you. You just so happen to be her fucking roommate."

Kaydence presses her lips together and turns to the sink, reaching into it to pick up a dirty plate as she squirts some green soap on it. She begins to scrub the plate, her back visibly tensing from my presence. Good. I'm glad my being here is making her uncomfortable.

"Harry," Nicole says in exasperation but I just shrug and continue with my assault.

"What? It's too bad really, I was hoping your roommate would be hot so I could fuck her. But instead I'm left with her." I say, and regret the words the moment they leave my mouth. Kaydence drops the plate into the sink, making it clatter against the other dishes. Nicole gasps, and Kaydence moves to curl her hands around the edge of the counter before she suddenly spins around to face me.

"Alright, you're obviously pissed off at me so go ahead. Let me have it. Say what it is you want to say." Kaydence says as she beckons me with her hands to continue, but I can't. I can't say what I really feel, only the words that I don't actually mean seem to be all that's able to leave my mouth. I can't tell her, and I won't. She didn't deserve what I had just said, but I'm not sure she deserves an apology either.

Kaydence waits for me to speak, but when I make it clear that I'm not going to, she shakes her head and steps over the broken glass on the floor as she moves past me and stops in front of Nicole. "I'm going for a walk. Make sure he's gone by the time I come back." Kaydence says flatly before she's walking out of the kitchen, and the slam of the front door echoes throughout the apartment.

Neither one of us says anything for a moment, the silence ringing loudly through my ears. Nicole finally looks up at me, and shakes her head with disappointment before she's walking out of the kitchen and into the family room. I follow behind her and watch as she sits at the end of the couch and gestures for me to sit at the other end. I do what she says, and she raises her eyebrow at me in question.

"You do realize what you said was fucked up, right?"

"Her leaving was fucked up."

"Oh please," Nicole rolls her eyes at me and looks to me with distaste. "You could of gone looking for her yourself. You could of called her, but you didn't. Instead, you sent me to check on her when you should have."

I don't answer her as my mind reels back to a few days after Kay had left me, and I was in a sad and depressed state. I stayed in the hotel room alone for days, not bothering to eat or to answer the numerous phone calls I was getting from management. I was pathetic and wanted to be left alone in my misery, until Nicole strode in through the room with the key card I'm assuming Javi had given her. She yelled at me, told me to get my pathetic ass off the bed and take a shower. To clean my act up and go find Kaydence. I followed her orders of course, until the one having to do with Kaydence came up. I broke down and cried like a fucking pussy on Nicole's shoulder as I told her how broken I felt. I let everything out that night, I told her how much I loved Kaydence and how hurt I felt, and I how I felt like my heart had been stomped on and ripped apart. I told her how past the hurt and anger I was feeling, I was worried for her. I needed to know if she was okay, but I didn't want to be the one to go looking for her, so I sent Nicole to do it. I got a hold of Dave and took her old address down before giving it to Nicole. She had called an hour later to tell me she was alright, and that had been it. It was the last time either one of us spoke about Kaydence to one another.

"You lied to me," I say slowly, watching Nicole closely. "You lied to me when you told me she was okay, didn't you?"

"Why would you think that?" Nicole doesn't even bat an eyelash, making me second guess myself.

"How else could you have become friends?"

"We just hit it off Harry. We realized we disliked each other over nothing."

"It hadn't been over nothing, you used to have feelings for me."

Nicole tenses at my words, and her eyebrows pull together in thought before she turns to look at me. "Used to. I don't anymore. That was all before I knew everything."

"Knew everything? What is that supposed to mean?"

She shrugs, and picks up the water bottle sitting on the table in front of her. "It just means, I see how you two feel about each other and I've realized you're meant to be."

 I laugh out loud. Throwing my head back in the process and shake my head, making Nicole give me a hard glare. "I'm sorry, but obviously we aren't. Look where we are at now."

"That's because you're both still upset, but give it time."

"I don't want to give it time, I don't want to be with her." I say and Nicole's mouth turns up into the smallest smile.

"Rubbish. But I'll wait for you to admit it to yourself."

"I'm not going to." I grumble as Nicole stands from the couch and moves to the laptop sitting on the desk, she closes out of what's on the screen and shuts her laptop before turning slightly in her chair to get a better look at me.

"Okay, well I think you should leave. Kay is going to be back soon..."

"I can't leave actually." I answer her, leaning back on the couch.

"Why?" Nicole asks flatly, dread filling her features.

"Because my house is being renovated at the moment so..."

"Ugh," Nicole throws her head back and face palms herself."Can't you just get a hotel room?"

"I've been living in hotel rooms the past few months. I'm sick of them."

 "Well, you can't stay with someone else?"

"Nope," I pop the 'P'. "You think if I could I wouldn't be staying with them? Sorry, but I don't want to be here as much as she doesn't want me here."

The front door suddenly opens and Nicole's eyes snap up to look at me, giving me a weary look. "Well you tell her that and be nice." She whispers in a hiss, just as Kaydence walks back into the room. She looks more relaxed and her eyes fall on Nicole first, who smiles guiltily at her before her gaze moves to me and her eyes widen.

"Nicole," Kaydence wines and Nicole puts her hands in the air and shakes her head vigorously.

"It's not my fault. Harry, tell her."

I roll my eyes at Nicole, then turn to stare at a very uncomfortable Kaydence. "My house is being renovated so you now have a third roomy." I say proudly, smiling at Kay mockingly and she looks at me with pure dread.

"You can't stay here," She answers when suddenly her eyes widen. "Wait, House? House?!" She looks between me and Nicole. "He has a house here?" Nicole shakes her head before Kaydence turns to look at me. "You have a house here?"

"Yep, looks like we're going to be neighbor's real soon, love."

Kaydence flinches at the nickname and presses her lips together before she turns on her heel and stomps off down the hallway, walking into a room and slamming the door behind her. I laugh to myself, and then turn to see Nicole watching me carefully.

"I told you to be nice."

I wink at her, feeling my lips turning into a smirk as I cross my arms behind my head, and lean further into the couch. This could be fun. "Stick around long enough, and you'll see I don't do what I'm told."
