The Original Heartbreak Girl

"Hello LA, you're live with Ryan Seacrest and joining us in the studio today is 5 Seconds of Summer."

We had finally made it inside to the studio fro the radio interview. Luke had pulled himself together and they were now sitting happily across from Ryan. I was sitting in the other room with the producers, watching everything.

"You guys are quite tall, I never realized that before." Ryan said while laughing, the boys chuckled at this as well.

"Yeah we get that pretty often." Ashton responded before Luke interrupted him.

"We're very tall for artist. Like when we meet other people in bands, they're much shorter."

"We don't really understand what it is." Calum interjected.

"So we've been watching you boys taking over the world. What's do the fans ask you most when they meet you?"

"Can you follow me on twitter?" Michael spoke up.

"Like we have people we look up to in bands, but I don't think that's what I would ask them. I would wanna go deeper." Ashton answered and everyone laughed.

"So you know what this is?" Ryan played She Looks So Perfect.

"No, I don't think we've ever heard it." Calum spoke up. Ryan just shook his head and continued on.

"So you guys announced that you're playing down at the forum. Did you actually go into the box office and sell tickets?" I started laughing at this, replying that night in my head.

"Yeah, I sold 17 tickets." Luke said and all the boys laughed.

"We're not very impressive salesmen." Ashton said while laughing.

"It takes a lot longer to sell tickets than you would think." Micheal answered.

"The mums were not happy. They were like why were you selling the tickets, we want a professional." Calum interjected, causing Ryan to laugh.

"How did the fans react to you guys selling the tickets?"

"Some of them were quite calm. And some of them were worried that they weren't going to get their tickets cause we had no idea what we were doing." Ashton answered.

"They didn't want you mess up their tickets?" Ryan asked curiously.

"They were just like, do you know what you're doing?" Calum laughed while trying to answer.

"So the show sold out, are you adding a second one?"

"Yes, we are. Actually we're basically announcing it right now. Come see the second show at the forum!" Ashton yelled into his mic.

"So let's get into the deep stuff. Here's the question that every girl in the world wants to know the answer to. Are you single?" I looked at Luke, waiting to see how he answered.

"I am." Calum said.

"I am. So hit me up ladies!" Ashton answered.

"Single and ready to mingle." Michael answered and they all burst out laughing.

"I'm taken." I let out a sigh that I hadn't realized I was holding in.

"So ladies you heard it here first, 3/4 of 5 Seconds of Summer are single? Would you date a fan?"

"Yes." The other 3 boys answered all at once.

"Well ladies, there is hope for you! So that's all the time we have for questions. Here's 5SOS with She Looks So Perfect."

I pulled out my phone and just listened to the boys sing as I scrolled though my twitter feed. I couldn't even stop myself from swaying to the music, I loved listening to them play. As I scrolled, I noticed that me named had been mention. I clicked on my mentions and saw that there was a list of tweets.

After reading them it felt like I had been punched in the gut. The boys were coming into the room, but I couldn't take my eyes off the screen . I kept reading, even though I knew I should stop.

lovingluke142: Is it me or @RosalinaMiller looking fat? Better hit the gym or you may lose your guy.

obsessedwith5sos: Why is @Luke5SOS dating @RosalineMiller? He could do so much better. She's not even pretty.

Hemmingshottie43: ew, seeing @RosalineMiller with @LukeHemmings makes me sick. Dump her already!

Fuckme5SOS: Did you see @RosalineMiller last night? YUCK!!!!

I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes. I knew I shouldn't let the comments get to me but I couldn't help it. I could feel Luke staring at me even before I looked up. I tried to will the tears away and smile at him. He stretched his arm at towards me and I got up and grabbed his hand.

"On to rehearsal." Ashton yelled out and started running down the hallway, pulling him down the hall. Calum followed behind shaking his head.

"Are you okay? Luke was looking at me with worry in his eyes.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"You're lying, something's wrong. I saw your eyes tearing up back there. What's going on?"

"There were just some mean comments on twitter. It's nothing, I'm just being silly."

"No, you're not. Let me see them." I handed him my phone and he scrolled through the comments. He had this pained look on his face as he read through.

"People are saying these things about you? When did this start?"

"A couple months ago people started commenting negative things on twitter and instagram and it's only gotten worse."

"Why didn't you tell me?" He looked as if he might start to cry again.

"I didn't want to bother you with something so small. You were so busy with the band and the tour, I felt like it wasn't important."

"Rosalina, you can't hide things like this. Anything that affects you, affects me too. Are you okay?" He stopped and looked at me seriously.

"I'm alright. It's just hard. I know those girls are just saying things about me because they're jealous but it's hard not to let what they say get to me. At first I just became really depressed but then I started to talk to a therapist and I'm getting better."

"Your seeing a therapist? Why didn't you tell me all of this? I could've been there for you?" We were still standing the middle of the hallway, him staring at me intensely.

"There was just some stuff I wasn't ready to tell you at the time but I couldn't hold it in."

"What stuff? You can tell me anything Rosie." He grabbed my face and pulled it close to his so we were eye to eye.

"Remember that night I came to see you on tour in England?"

"Yeah, you acted weird that whole trip."

"Well the first night I was at the concert, I went to find you backstage but I got lost. I ended up near One Direction's dressing rooms and ran into Harry Styles. He said to come in his room and that he would have someone page you." I could feel the sobs rising, it was like I was relieving that horrible night.

10 Months Ago

"Are you looking for someone?" It was crazy to see Harry Styles up close. I had seen him in pictures, but they didn't do him justice. His bright green eyes and his perfect curly hair were stunning in person.

"I was looking for Luke Hemmings, but it seems that I've gotten lost." I laughed nervously at this. The way he was staring at me, just made me feel uncomfortable.

"Here, come into my room and I'll have someone page for him. Are you Luke's girlfriend?" I followed him into the room and he closed the door behind him. He walked over to a table and picked up his phoned and typed something in. I assumed he was having someone search for Luke.

"Not really. We've been friends since we were little and yeah I like him but I don't know if he likes me." I sat down on the couch, leaning back and closing my eyes. It had been a long flight from Australia and I was still a little jet-lagged.

I felt Harry sit next to me, but I kept my eyes closed. I was hoping Luke would hurry up and get here. I had really missed him while he was gone. Suddenly Harry was kissing the side of my neck and he hands were on my thighs.

"What are you doing?" My question didn't even seem to phase him. He moved so that he was on top of me.

"Get off of me!" I tried pushing him off but I couldn't budge him.

"Shh, just relax. It'll be okay." He grabbed at my shirt and pulled it off. I tired thrashing my arms and legs to hit him but it didn't work.

"You're a fighter aren't you? We'll fix that." He reached under the couch and pulled out duct tape. Who keeps duct tape under the couch in their dressing room? Had he done this before? Before I could say anything else he was ripping a strip off and grabbing my arms. I couldn't get him to let go, no matter how much I struggled. He taped my wrist together. I tried the yell but he was already covering my mouth with the duct tape. I tried to kick him but it seemed that he read my mind because he instantly grabbed my legs and was taping my ankles together.

"Much better. I like you a lot more now that you're quiet. Now just stay calm and this will go by fast."

He slid my pants down and his hand was exploring inside my underwear. I could feel tears rushing to my eyes. They didn't seem to stop him though. He just kept going. His hands were on my breasts, groping them and squeezing them. He started to take his pants off, next came his boxers. I closed my eyes, trying to avoid see his penis.

"Sweetie, nobody closed their eyes on me." He was pulled my eyes so I was staring straight at his dick.

All of the sudden he was thrusting inside of me. I squirmed as the pain hit me. The tears were rolling down my cheeks but he didn't care. He kept thrusting over and over. He pulled out and quickly put a condom on, then he was back inside of me. He thrusted a couple my time that he groaned and his eyes rolled back. He rolled off of me and sighed.

"You were pretty good, even for a virgin." He whispered into my ear, sending chills up my spine. He pulled the duct tape off my mouth.

"You can't do this! I'm going to tell the cops!" He slapped his hand over my mouth and looked at me with a terrifying look.

"You're not going to tell anybody. Who would believe you? And if you even try, I'll make sure those friends of yours go nowhere. One word from me, and their careers are ruined. Do you really want to ruin their dream?" I shook my head no and he took his hand off my mouth.

"Good girl. Now you should probably get ready and find Luke before he goes on stage. And remember to smile." He ripped the tape off my wrists and ankles then headed into the bathroom. I quickly pulled my pants back up and put my shirt back on. I checked my face and the mirror and tried to make myself look normal. I headed out into the hall. I turned the corner and found a security guard.

"Do you know where Luke Hemmings is?"

"I believed he just went into that room." He pointed down the hall and I thanked him. I heaed towards the door and then knocked on it. Luke answered the door and instantly wrapped me into a hug.

"What are doing here?"

"I missed you and I really wanted to see you. So Ashton helped me arrange it." He shot a look at Ashton then smiled.

"I'm so glad you're here!"

"Me too." I tried to fake a smile but it was hard. Luke didn't seem to notice though.

"He raped you? Why didn't you tell somebody?"

"I didn't want to ruin your career. I didn't want to come between you and your dreams."

"Rosie, you didn't have to keep it a secret! I care more about you than my career!" He pulled me into to him. It felt like he would never let go.

"I hate to ruin the moment, but we're going to be late." Ashton poked his head through the door then disappeared.

"We better go but this conversation isn't over." He grabbed my hand and we headed down the hall. Outside the van was waiting with the boys, we slid inside and the driver pulled away.

The other three boys were chatting in the back but Luke was silent during the whole ridee. I could literally see him fuming. I grabbed his hand and squeezed it. He looked up at me and gave me a half smile. Eventually we pulled up at the back of the stadium. We all got out and headed inside. I could hear One Direction warming up from down the hall. We headed towards the sound and I could see Luke's whole body tensing up. We walked in and all of them looked up.

"Hey look, 5SOS is late! What a surprise!" Niall yelled out causing everyone to laugh, except Luke who was glaring at Harry.

"Luke what's wrong? Did your girl steal your smile today?" Harry laughed as he spoke to Luke.

The next minute seemed to happen in fast forward. Luke was running towards Harry, like a wild animal out for blood. Before anyone could stop him, he was winding up and then his fist collided with Harry's nose. The force of the punch knocked Harry on his feet. This didn't stop Luke, he just kept punching Harry. He was on top of him, puncking his face over and over. Finally Ashton pulled him off of Harry and the room erupted with yelling.

"Luke what the hell are you doing?" Ashton had him pinned againist the wall, Calum and Michael directly behind him all looking worried. The rest of One Direction was huddled over Harry, looking concerned.

"I hate him! He deserves worse!" Luke was yelling, he basically hissed as he said these words.

"No you don't. Harry's your friend." Calum was trying to reason with him but it wasn't working.

"I'm not friends with someone who hurts my friends." He looked at me quickly as he said this.

"What are you talking about?" Michael was asking him calmly.

"He raped Rose." All the boys gasped at once. Ashton motioned for Calum and Michael to take over. He walked over to me and led me back out into the hallway.

"What is he talking about Rose? Did Harry rape you?" I nodded my head and Ashton put his head in his hands.

"Rosie, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry." He cried out. I could hear the sobs escaping from his body.

"You didn't do anything."

"I wasn't there for you. I promised your mom to protect you and I couldn't even do that."He sobbed harder, making my heartbreak.

"Ash, this isn't your fault. What were you supposed to do follow me around all the time? You didn't do anything wrong." I rubbed my hand up and down his back, trying to calm him down.

"I should've been there, you shouldn't have been wondering the stadium alone."

"It was my idea. Now please stop, it wasn't your fault. I just need you here now and Luke needs you too. So can you please pull it together?" He finally looked up at me.

"You're right. We have to go settle things in the other room and straighten everything out. Let's go." We headed into the room, where Harry was now sitting up and talking to their manager.

"Are you okay?" I walked over to Luke and stared him in the eye.

"Yeah. I'm sorry about that but I just couldn't stand it anymore. How could he act like nothing happened? I lost it but I'm alright now." I leaned in and kissed him until Niall came over and interuppted us.

"Camille would like to see you and Rose in her office?" He couldn't even look at us as he spoke. Luke nodded and we headed down the hallway, with Ashton trailing behind.

"I'm going with you." He stated as we entered Camille's office. She was sitting behind her makeshift desk and she didn't look happy.

"So what happened today is unacceptable, but we're willing to hear your side of the story. Go ahead and explaing Mr. Hemmings." She looked at look with such a stern look, it made me nervous.

"He did something horrible to my bestfriend and the anger just boiled over. I understand what I did wasn't the apporiate way to handle the situation but I just snapped."

"What did he do to your friend?" She looked curious now.

"He raped her." He looked at me before he spoked, as if he were asking my permission.

"I'm assuming we're talking about you Miss Miller?" Her eyes were practically boring into me.

"Yes, he is talking about me."

"So Mr. Styles raped you?" She asked as if she didn't believe it.

"Yes he did." I answered with no emotion.

"Do you have proof?" I heard Ashton behind me groan at this, as if it were ridiculous for her to ask this.

"I actually do, but it's back home." She raised her eyebrows surprised by the fact that I had proof.

"What proof do you have?"

"The day after it happened, I went to a doctor and had a rape test. The test came back positive. I had to file a report but I asked that the hold it. I have the results back home eand the English police have the file." She didn't look pleased by this.

"Okay, does anyone else know about this?"

"My therapist does."

"That's it? Any other friends or family?" I shook me head, and she looked pleased by this.

"Okay, this can be easily handled then. We would like to keep this out of the press, and 5SOS can keep their spot on the tour as long as you don't press charges. We'll overlook what happened earlier."

"What? He can't get away with what he did!" Luke jumped in and was yelling over the desk. I stepped in front of him, hoping to stop him from doing anything.

"Deal. I just want to pretend the whole thing didn't happen."

"You can't just settle like this!" Luke was tugging on my shirt sleeve.

"In return for keeping quiet about this, Rose will get studio time and the chance to work with a vocal coach." Luke went the say something, but I pushed him back.

"It's a deal then."

"Good, I'll go tell the boys. You two should probably go start to rehearse. The show's in two hours." She got up and left the room, leaving us sitting there.

"What the hell are you doing? Why would you agree to that?" Luke was leaning towards, an angry look on his face.

"Luke leave her alone." AShton interjected, standing behind me and placing his hands on my shoudlers.

"I agreed to the deal because if I press charges, it will be everywhere. I'm already getting hate, what do you think will happen when I accuse Harry Styles of rape? I just want to move on from this whole situation. This way you guys still get to perform and I get a shot at recording my own song. I'm moving on with my life."

"Okay. I'm sorry, I'm just having trouble handling it. I can't get the image of what he did to you out of my head. I'll try to let it go." I grabbed his hand and stared him in the eyes.

"Thank you. I know it's hard news to handle." I kissed him and he finally smiled.

"Okay nwo that you two have made up, can we please go rehearse." Ashton was cureently giving us the puupy dog eyes and pouting his lip. We got up and went to the stage, where Calum and Mikey were already waiting for.

"Took you long enough." Mikey complained, making Calum laugh. I was glad they weren't asking questions. I walked to the front row of seats and sat down. The boys started going through their song, all them acting stupid as usual.

"Rose are you okay?" I looked over to see Niall sliding into the seat next to me. i was surprised he was even speaking to me.

"I'm alright, how's Harry?"

"A little bruised, your boyfriend did a pretty good job at beating the hell at of him. Is it tue?" He blue eyes were looking at me worridly.

"Do you really want to know?"

"Only if you want to tell me, otherwise forget that I brought it up."

"Yes, it's true." He let out a side sigh, like he was hoping that I wouldn't say yes.

"I'm so sorry Rose. I can't even how hard that must've been for you."

"It got better once I started talking to someone about it. Now it doesn't really bother me anymore."

"Thank you for not going to the media."

"No problem. I was much as I dislike him, I didn't want to ruin everything for the rest of the band or all of your fans."

"You're amazing. Luke's a lucky guy." I looked up to see that Luke was watching us intently. I smiled at him and he seemed to relax.

"Well, I better get going. I just wanted to check on you." Niall patted my shoulder then got up. The boys finished playing and Luke hoped down and walked over to me.

"You okay?" He sat down and automatically grabbed my hand.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Niall just wanted to check that I was doing alright."

"Well that was nice. Wanna go get lunch? Then we'll come back and get ready for the concert."

"Yeah, I'm starving." We headed outside to find a driver. Hopefully we would have a peaceful lunch.

"Luke, we have to go now." Ashton was pulling him by the collar of his shirt, trying to hurry him along.

We had a peaceful lunch, with just the two of us and it was nice. We came back and Luke had gotten changed into his "performance clothes". I just slipped on a dress and heels, nothing super fancy though. We had spent the rest of the time just talking and relaxing.

"See you in a little." He kissed me then ran on stage, the crowd erupting in screams.

I stood on the side for the first three songs, then suddenly Luke was pulling me on stage. Ashton was behind his drums cracking up. It was kind of scary to be standing in front of all those people.

"What are you doing?" I practically growled at him. This was humiliating.

"Everyone, this is our good friend Rosalina Miller. Rosalina's gonna sing a song with us. Sing along if you know the words." I was glaring at him so hard, I surely thought he would burst into flames. He handed me a mic and walked back over to his.

The boys started playing, all of them looking at me. It was a slower song, but I recogised it instantly. Luke was motioning for me to start singing. I took a deep breath and decided to go for it.

"My ship went down
In a sea of sound.
When I woke up alone I had everything:
A handful of moments I wished I could change
And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade"

I could see that the audience was swaying along to the song, there phone lights mvoing in the air. They didn't hate it. They actually seemed to like it.

"In a city of fools,
I was careful and cool,
But they tore me apart like a hurricane...
A handful of moments I wished I could change
But I was carried away."

I motioned for the other boys to join in on the chorus, hoping that are voices would mesh well together. I had never sung with all of them at once.

"Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can keep all your misery."

The audience sang along with us, and it was just an awesome moment. I could see Luke smiling out of the corner of my eye. It walked over towards me, playing his guitar. He leaned into the mic with me and sang along.

"My lungs gave out
As I faced the crowd.
I think that keeping this up could be dangerous.
I'm flesh and bone,
I'm a rolling stone
And the experts say I'm delirious."

He walked over to the side of the stage, interacting with the fans. I stepped forward, really getting into the song now.

"Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can take back your misery.
Arrogant boy,
Love yourself so no one has to.
They're better off without you."

I could hear Mikey echoing me and it sounded pretty awesome. I couldn't contain the smile on my face.

"Arrogant boy,
Cause a scene like you're supposed to.
They'll fall asleep without you.
You're lucky if your memory remains.
Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can take back your misery.
Therapy...
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can choke on your misery"

Luke played out the last couple chords and then the crowd went nuts. I bowed and headed to side of the stage. Luke came up behind me and whispered in my ear.

"I knew they would love, how could they not." Before I could respond he was already strolling back out tot he middle of the stage to finish out their set.

I stood on the side, watching them with a huge smile on my face. I could feel someone standing behind. I turned to see Harry standing behind.

"What do you want?" As he stepped closer, I could see the bruises on his face and his nose looked broken. Luke had done a good job.

"You sounded pretty good out there, I'm disappointed I didn't get to hear it in private."

"It was more fun to sing with Luke." He grabbed my arm and pulled me close. I could feel his breathe on my ear.

"I told you to keep quiet. You're going to regret saying something, trust me. People don't screw Harry Styles over and get away with it."

"Well people don't screw me and get away with it." A yelled back just as fiercly.

"You'll regret this, trust me. You and your friends." He squeezd my arm making me cry out and then he was gone. I turned back towards the stage and saw Luke walking off towards me. I tried to fake a smile but the hairs on the back of my neck were still standing up.

Harry's words just echoing in me head.
