I wake up in a daze. Anna and Ellie and fast asleep in the bed beside me. I look around to find Meg but she's definitely not in the room. Maybe she is with Cameron?

I tiptoe downstairs, wearing nothing but my underwear and a baggy shirt. I step over a trail of drunk bodies obviously suffering the consequences of too much alcohol. People tend to just fall asleep wherever they can after a party. It's quite irresponsible if you ask me.

I make my way into the kitchen and pour myself a glass of water. I take a sip and move over to the couch. I spit out my water at what I see there. Yes, I did literally spit out my water.

I stand shocked at the sight of Meg lying on the sofa, in the arms of Matt. Both with no shirt on. What happened last night? I quickly wake Meg and pull her outside.

"Woah, where am I?"
"You're at Ellie's"
"Oh yeah! The party was epic" she slurs struggling to keep her balance
"Meg" I grab her face and keep her steady "why are you not wearing a shirt?" As if that's the least of her problems "and why the hell did I just find you asleep in MATT'S arms?" A distraught look comes over her face as it dawns on her what exactly happened last night
"Oh shit"
"Yeah, oh shit"
"Cameron?"
"I don't know where he is?"
"He's gonna hate me so much!" She stares at me dead in the eyes "You cannot tell anyone about this? Got it?" She threatens. She forgets that she has no power over me. I'm not one of her 'disciples' as she calls them. She can't boss me around. But I agree. This is between her and Cameron. And Matt. Ergh Matt. I just want to slap him so hard right now, that pig. "Got it?" She says sternly
"Yeah yeah got it"
"So what do I do now?" She says turning back into her normal self
"You go upstairs, pretend like you were asleep with us the whole time" I say "and I'll find Cam"
"What are you going to say?"
"I don't know"
"You can't tell him" she threatens again
"I won't. But you do have to"
