'Wooow.... embarrassing' I laugh.
'Is that Amy?' Molly calls from the kitchen.
'Yeah?'

They all start to giggle.
I give Lauren a dirty look. 'I hate you' I mutter.

'Love you too' she says 'I'm gonna go and help the girls'
'Make me lots of pancakes' Ty calls after.

All of the guys try to avoid making eye contact with me. 'I know that she told you guys' I sigh.

'How did you know?' Steve asks.
'Gee I dunno? maybe because you're all staying quiet and aren't making eye contact' I say.

'We're just not in the mood of speaking' Mitch lies.
'When are you NOT in the mood of speaking?' I ask.

'She's onto us' Kyle whispers to Tyler.

I roll my eyes.
'Pancakes are ready!' roisin calls from the kitchen.

They all walk out with plates of pancakes.
'Yes! I'm starving' jerome says.

They all sit down to eat.
'So what's the plan for today?' I ask as we all eat.
'Well I'm gonna go downstairs to see what's going on with Ryan' Adam says.
'Can we just stay in and eat?' roisin asks.

'Fine' Adam sighs 'you all deserve a break'

We all cheer. 'I'm gonna sleep all day' jerome says.

Adam rolls his eyes, 'really? the whole day?"
'Yep' jerome nods.

I notice Alesa has a worried look on her face. 'you okay?' I mouth to her.

She just nods.

'My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like it's b-' Molly starts to sing but Mitch shuts her up by shoving a pancake in her mouth.

'What?' she says with her mouthful.
'No singing... please' he laughs.

Alesa's POV

I stand up to go to the bathroom.
'Where you going?' Adam asks me.
'Just to the bathroom' I fake a smile.
'Oh, okay.'

I walk slowly up the stairs and into the bathroom.
'Okay, calm down Alesa. calm down' I think to myself.

I splash my face with some water.

Looking in the mirror I see a tired person staring back at me.

How am I gonna tell them?
Will Adam be upset?

I splash my face again and try to calm down.

I take deep breaths in and out.
'Calm down' I think.
'Calm down'

I hear a knock on the door.
'Alesa, you okay in there?' my fiancé asks from the other side of the door.

'Yeah, I'm fine' I lie.
'Okay, well the others are outside by the pool if you want to join them' he informs me.

'Okay, I'll be out in a minute' I try to say in a happy voice.

I hear his footsteps fade away.

I once again splash my face with some water and go downstairs.

Darcie, Ross and Alex walk through the front door when I reach the bottom of the stairs.

'Oh hey Alesa' Ross smiles.
'Hi' I smile back.

Darcie gives me a strange look.
'Are you okay?' she asks.
'Yeah. why, do I not look okay?' I ask.
'No. no, you look fine' she says 'I was just wondering if you were feeling alright'

'Well I'm fine' I fake a smile.

I seem to constantly be faking smiles.

'Where are the others?' Ross asks
'They're by the pool' I say.
'I was just gonna go join them'
