Darcy's pov
                          
"What do you mean, it's good for publicity? it's my fucking marriage?"
                          
"Wait so your telling me to calm down, no thanks, I'll pass, you can't ducking do this!"
                          
I listened through the door to Dougie's shouting. I know it's wrong to listen into people's conversation, but it sounds kind of serious.
                          
Me and Doug split up about a month an a half ago, we have both been living in the house, so that Doug can see the kids but we've barely spoke.
                          
I felt myself fall forward through the door as dougie stared down at me, I chuckled nervously as he stared angrily.
                          
"Were you listening to my conversation?" I looked up into his eyes nodding slightly, giving a remorseful smile.
                          
"I heard you shouting, I was going to check you were okay, but I didn't want to interrupt you it sounded serious. sorry."
                          
His eyes softened and he gave a slight smile. "so, what was all the shouting about, you okay?"
                          
Dougie echoed my nervous chuckle from earlier and scratched the back of his neck, nervously looking down at his feet. "Doug? what's the matter?" 
                          
Dougie looked up slightly, tears in his eyes. "I'm sorry, it's management. they, they said that they want me to take you all with me on tour." I sighed knowing, I knew why he was crying. that tour, that's the reason this whole thing spiralled into this, it bought back a lot of memories.
                          
"Have you told them about what's happening between us? they can't make you don't that, can they?"
                          
"Yeah, they can, and they are. they said it is good for publicity and makes me look like a dedicated family man. fuck sake, why do they have to ruin everything, I don't give a shot what kind of person I look like, it's about the music nothing else."
                          
"Doug, come here, it'll be okay, we'll make it work. we'll just go together as friends, we'll be fine, like you said it will give the kids a chance to learn about what you do."
                          
I stepped closer to Dougie hesitantly and wrapped my arms around him. it felt different, I didn't hug him like I used to. I hugged him the way I would hug a friend. There was no spark or sexual tension, simply just friendship, if that.

Authors note.
                          
Hey guys, this chapter is sort of the starting point for all the drama and the back bone of the story, it's kind of important, and I'm sorry it's only short.
                          
So, this week has been kind of busy, I got my results for my English literature exam, I got a b was three marks off an a, I'm resitting it in the summer at the same time I have my final exam for English literature. I have loads of other exams in the summer as well.
                          
I ended up in a&e the other night, I ahead an allergic reaction to something, not sure what, but my throat closed up and I couldn't breath at all, that was pretty scary.
                          
Lastly, I went a little psycho in school and completely lost it with this lad I'm speaking to, he keeps messing me around and I let it get to me, and I ended screaming at him infront of about 50 people that I hang around with. lads and girls. I was crying my eyes out and screaming at him and he tried to hug my to calm me down and is started pushing him and hitting him. and then to top things off my ex walking in and started hugging me while I completely broke down, crying and just making an idiot of myself. The lad I'm speaking to now keeps ringing me, texting me trying to make sure I'm okay but I can't face answering him because I know he's with this girl he kissed a few weeks ago this weekend. she's a foley friend and he goes to her holiday home with his and her family a lot and well I get a little jealous.
                          
Today I am going on an expedition for my duke of ed award. I'm looking forward to it, apart from I know everyone's going to be talking about yesterday and my older cousins going and I don't want him to hear and find out because he's really over protective.
