*Carly's POV*

I woke up this morning with a pounding headache and a hairdo any birds nest would be jealous of.
I couldn't see anyone so I walked down the stairs stopping in my tracks when I heard my name.

"Carly doesnt like him" I heard Bradley speak

"how do you know" I heard another voice say

"I just know okay, plus man come on if anyone Is going to know what someone's thinking then it's going to be me"
they all laughed

"what are you guys talking about" I heard Lauren say
I sat down on the stairs at this point, trying to make as little noise as possible

"well?" she continued

"it doesn't matter" said Colton I think

I sighed and everything suddenly went quiet. A number of whispers could now be heard and I decided to make a run for it, straight back up the stairs. Just as I rounded the corner Lauren shouted up the stairs
"Carly, are you up?"
I leant my head against the wall trying to steady my breath, just as I was about to respond a boy was sick making me scream as I tried to avoid it. He looked like death warmed up.

"erm yeah" I squeaked

"well come down then" she called

I turned the corner shoes in hand and walked down the stairs
"ive got to go"

"what where?"

"home, you should probably check if he's okay" gesturing up the stairs. Hurrying out of the door I started heading home.

I wanted to stay and ask them what I should know, what was the big secret they were all hiding but no I decided to just walk home.
When I reached my house no one was in, left on the table was a note

' Carly I've gone to work i'll be home later tonight
hope you had fun at the party
mum
xx'

At least I wouldn't have to answer the million questions my mother would no doubt have till later on.
I walked up the stairs running my fingers along the wooden banister.

I turned off my phone and placed it on the bedside table before grabbing a towel and heading to the bathroom to wash away the smell of alcohol.

When I finally got out of the bath I wrapped a towel around myself and my hair, I headed back to my bedroom to check the time.
I sat on the bed switching my phone on, I had 6 missed calls from Lauren and a number of texts

one of which read

'Carly are you okay? you left in quite a hurry'

I decided against texting back, watching the tv instead.

*Colton's POV*
Sitting in the kitchen with the rest of the boys Lauren walked in saying Carly had left in quite a hurry.
"I'm gonna help Oli, he doesn't look too well" Lauren said
"Babe i'll help you" Bradley said standing up and following Lauren out of the kitchen

I rested my head on the kitchen counter fiddling with the cup of water I had poured earlier on.
I could hear Oli throwing up upstairs, the joys of teenage drinking.

My thoughts were so loud that I was sure Bradley would be able to hear them and just like that Bradley walked in through the door
"So, what was I supposed to be hearing?"
"Bradley what if she finds out and wants to be, you know"
"We'll cross that bridge when we get to it"
