Joe walked into the flat whistling in content when he saw Dannii slumped on the sofa hugging a pillow.

'What's wrong?' Joe asked as he sat down beside her.

'Remember that girl Katie I introduced you to last night?' Dannii asked while Joe nodded in agreement.

'Well it turns out that her and Russ use to go out and Sam said that it was pretty serious' she said dejectedly.

'What?' Joe asked pretty confused.

'Apparently they were gonna get married and everything and the only reason they split up is because their parents made Russ move.'

'What Sam told you this?' Joe asked and Dannii nodded in response.

'And you believe him?' He asked again. Dannii looked confused.

'Oh come on Dannii that guy has had in it for you ever since he realised Russ liked you.'

'I know but…' She was interrupted

'But nothing. Did Russ tell you about this?' he asked.

'No…' she said quietly.

'Well then maybe it's not true.' He said getting up and going into the kitchen.

'But Katie said they use to be 'friends' in London. I bet they're down in the SUbar right now talking about old times and wondering why they ever split up.'

'They're in the SUbar?' Joe asked

'Yeah they wanted to 'catch up'' Dannii mocked.

'So you really think that they use to go out?' Joe asked her seriously.

'Yeah I do and I just feel like I can't compete with her.' She said hugging her pillow tightly.

'Rubbish! Just you leave it up to me and there is no way that you're gonna loose Russ to this Katie woman.' Joe said as he pulled Danni up from her seat and dragged her into his room for a modelling session.

AT THE SUBAR

Katie, Russ and Sam all sat round a table eating lunch and laughing at some of their old stories.

'And that night were we all went out to celebrate Daniel's birthday and we got so drunk.' Katie laughed referring to her and Russ. Russ laughed at the thought.

'Yeah that was fun' Russ said.

'Yeah that night wasn't so fun for me, I had to take care of you both when you got home.' Said Sam as he smiled at how well Katie and Russ were getting on.

'You know I've tried contacting you.' Katie said to Russ suddenly changing the mood of their lunch.

'Yeah I know' Russ said looking at the floor hoping that they wouldn't have to have this conversation.

'Why didn't you return any of my calls?' she asked quietly. Sam started to feel uncomfortable so decided to leave his brother to it and get some drinks.

'I just wanted a clean break you know? I mean really like it here and I just didn't want to have to move again.' He said honestly looking up at her. Katie took a deep breath.

'Yeah, Dannii seems nice.' Katie said finally bringing it up.

'She's great' Russ replied. He could see the hurt in Katie's eyes as she realised he had moved on and she hadn't. Katie reached for his hand.

'Things could've really worked out for us.' She said trying to make him realise how much she missed him.

'They could've if you hadn't…I mean why did you have to…' Russ struggled with his words as his anger started to develop. Katie's eyes started to well up.

'Let's not do this here. We could go out somewhere nice for dinner and I can explain myself.' She said.

'I dunno Katie, maybe that's not such a good idea.' He said when all he could think about was Dannii.

'Please Russ, I miss you.' She said looking deep into his eyes.

''I know, I know.' Russ sighed audibly. 'Ok just ring me and let me know when and where yeah?' he asked

'Yeah, of course.' She said with a satisfied smile. She quickly got his new phone number. Still grasping his hand she saw Dannii and Joe headed towards them and she suddenly felt sick with worry.

DANNII AND JOE

'I can't do this' Dannii said as she looked at them and tried to turn around but Joe pulled her right back.

'Yes you can. Look at you, you look amazing!' he said proud of his clothes he had made.

'They're holding hands!' she said shocked.

'Well…maybe they have a good reason.' Joe replied trying to find an explanation.

'Yeah the reason that he's leaving me and moving back to London with her!'' she said upset.

'It'll be ok don't worry' he reassured her as he pushed her gently to Russ and Katie's table.

Joe cleared his throat and got the attention of Russ as he looked up at them.

'Hi' she said weakly.
