"Cause it's always one step forward and three steps back
I'm the love of your life until I make you mad"


"it's louis." julianna stated plainly looking from her phone up to her friends. "are you going to answer it?" ollieasked, sitting up straight. 

"hello." juli said sitting at her desk. "juli what the hell?" louis snapped. what the hell is her problem? I'm her boyfriend, Louis thought to himself confused with her attitude. "what?" juli asked, the girl was genuinely confused, why is he so bothered by the comment, jesus she thought rolling her eyes. "you asked why i suddenly care, what the hell does that mean? I'm your boyfriend." he demanded. "it mean's that you have been acting like you don't really care about me or our relationship!" juli snapped back. "wha-" louis started.

"i don't understand why you're confused, i've explained this before. all you do is hang out with alexis and when you ask to hang out you bring her along. you forgot our anniversary and then the next day you took her to do our thing!" the girl fumed, she was absolutely done with him. "i pay attention to you and alexis is just a friend! stop being so fucking paraniod julianna!" the boy exclaimed. "you told me you were going to call and instead i see that you're hanging out with her AGAIN! i don't care if you have girl friends as long as you still act like you love me." 

there was a silence for a few moments, until julianna realized that he was on mute for she couldn't hear any background. "are you kidding me? are you with her right now?" she mumbled. juli wasn't even mad anymore, she was heart broken. she was trying so hard to hold in her tears not wanting him to know. "no i'm not! jesus juli!" louis groaned. "well i wouldn't put it past you! god!" juli sniffled. "do even still love me? because i don't see it or hear it! you're barely even around anymore!" the sobbed not being able to hold in her emotions anymore.

"of course i love you, calm down juli." louis said softly feeling bad. he was the reason she was currently crying her heart out to him on the phone, he hurt her and he wanted to fix it. "Juli-" "lou, are you off the phone?" and that made juli freeze, he was fucking lying, he was with her. he was with alexis fucking brown. "juli, listen to me, it's not what you think!" louis tried to explain. "really because i think that you're a liar and  a cheat!" juli exclaimed. "i am not cheating on you! i promise juli! you have to believe me!" the boy insisted. "well i don't!" and with that she hung up.

"oh honey!" aza said softly bring the sobbing girl into her arms. "you deserve so much better than him, he doesn't deserve you!" izzie added. "yeah! he's a piece of shit!" ollieadded shoving popcorn into his mouth. "i'll go get our best friends ben and jerry to cheery you up." izzie said, smiling softly, helping the crying girl up and into her bed, tucking her in.

for the remainder of the night the friends watched aquamarine  trying to help juli forget about louis. aza, izzie and ollieweren't sure if juli was ready to hear it, but her relationship with louis was spiralling downwards, and they didn't have the heart to tell her.

when juli woke the next morning the first thing she saw was the painting louis made for their 3 month anniversary. she was furious and heartbroken and yet she still loved him and that made her want to scream. though unfortunately she had school today and had to go whether she liked it or not.

the day seemed to go  by fast enough, before juli knew it, it was lunch time. "guys i think i'm going to head to the library. I have to study for mr. click's class." juli said. "ok!" aza replied, to invested in her food to really care. julianna quickly made her way to the library and for some reason she had a sudden urge to write, to write down all her emotions. and that's exactly what she did.

the moment she got home went straight to her room, sat at her piano and continued writing.she wrote about everything from how she doesn't feel like she is enough for louis to how felt when he took alexis to malibu to do their thing. she wondered whether or not he got deja vu when he's with alexis.
