The taxi pulled up in town and we headed into Buzz Bar like we usually did, beginning our night with some amazing cocktails.
“Five Cheeky V’s and One lemonade please.” I smile at the bar man.
“Coming up ladies.” He smiled
“Don’t think LMB is in here girls.” Evie says, her eyes still searching around the fairly busy bar.
“Okay.” I smile paying the bar man before passing the drinks to the girls and making our way over to a booth.
We had a bit of a natter before making our way out of the bar, heading over to Shooters for some shots. I crossed the road, following the girls when I heard a laugh. A laugh I would recognise anywhere...it was Amy.
My head whipped round and I watched her walk into Buzz Bar with Lindsay, a couple of girls, that Lucien lad and what looked like his mates.
“Girls.” I shout walking into the bar, “She’s out.”
“How do you know?” Meg asked
“I’ve just seen her walking into Buzz.”
“So we’ll definitely see her in the club later, keep an eye on what she’s drinking.” Katy smiles
I wasn’t in the mood for drinking any more now, I wanted to keep a clear head. The girls were at the bar downing I don’t know how many shots as I sat on what looked like one of the old Big Brother chairs in the corner of the room thinking about what I’d say to Dan...how I would tell him she wasn’t pregnant.
I was brought out of my thoughts as I saw her walk into the bar. She didn’t see me but spotted the girls. She whispered something to Lindsay before scanning the room, still not noticing me in the corner. She headed to the other side of the bar with her girls, out of view of my girls who had yet to notice she was here.
My eyes firmly glued on her, watching every move she made. She ordered a bottle of water from the bar and what seemed to be a number of multi-coloured shots. I watched her glance around the room before shotting one of them, but keeping the bottle of water close to her incase she needed it.
I watched how Lindsay didn’t do one single shot, I fucking knew the bitch was lying. Something in my gut told me from the beginning. Call it woman’s instinct if you will. The rest of them downed there shots quickly before they all walked out the bar. I quickly ran over to the bar to where the girls were and they were off their faces...apart from Evie.
“Did you see her?” I ask
“Yea, I saw her come in and spot us but I didn’t do anything because this lot didn’t.” Evie says to me “Cheeky bitch even had a shot.”
“I noticed, she didn’t see me sat in the corner though.” I smiled
“She wouldn’t have dared done one otherwise.”
“I need to get proof of her drinking though.” I sigh
“I have my camera , we’ll snap her in Movida.” Evie grinned
“Ahh Evie you are a star.” I smile hugging her
I collect the girls before leaving the bar, making our way up the street to Movida. But not before having to put Meg and Paige in a taxi back home, they were too drunk to get in anywhere.
“Night girls.” I shout through the open window.
“I sskjahf aikfiah” Paige replied
“Yea okay .” I laughed as the taxi drove off
“‘I swear, when I’m drunk as well. I can totally understand her.” I giggle
“She said, hope you catch LMB” Katy grinned
“How the fuck did you understand that?” Evie laughed
“I’m drunk....duh!”
We all burst out laughing, that was a fair point. We all linked arms before making our way up to the club.
“‘ID ladies.” The bouncer asks, passing them over before making our way inside.
“Okay girls, we need to find LMB” Katy grins, winking at me. We head to the bar before having a Dance on the Dance floor as Rihanna – Cheers came blasting out the speakers.
“I’ve spotted Lindsay.” Ruby grinned pointing over by the DJ booth. She was stood with the girls but I couldn’t see Amy anywhere.
Me and the girls split up, wandering around the club looking for her but she wasn’t there.
“For fucks sake.” I scream sitting down in a booth with Katy
“ we will get her, I promise. Just not tonight I guess.”
“, I just want her out my life.”
“I know sweet, but we need to make sure that when you confront her and you tell Dan the truth. You have the evidence to back you up so she can’t say it’s your word against hers and Dan will believe you.”
“I know you’re right...I know.” I sigh, “Think I’m gonna go home.”
“, don’t let her ruin your night.”
“She has but she hasn’t. I’ve had a great time, but I just want to go home and snuggle with my boy. I feel like I need to be with him right now.”
“Okay , I’ll make sure Evie and the girls get back safe.” She smiles hugging me.
“Thanks for tonight , means a lot.”
“Not a problem , night.” She smiles at me as I head onto the Dance floor to say night to Evie and the others.
I find her grinding up against Ruby to Bootylicious.
“, I’m gonna head home.” I shout to her over the music.
“What’s up ?”
“Just need Dan.” I reply
“Okay , I’ll come back with you.” She smiles tugging on the other girls.
“You don’t have to.”
“Saves me coming back on my own later.”
“Only if you’re sure.” I say and she nods. We say bye to the other girls before heading back in a taxi.
“We’ll get her don’t worry .” Evie says to me in the taxi, taking hold of my hand.
“I hope so.”
We paid the taxi before getting out and walking through the front door. Luke was sprawled out on the sofa, half on it, half hanging off. Evie placed a blanket over him as I threw one over Jayden who was curled up on the other with Chris. Paul was sat on the chair in the corner, Andy resting his head against it on the floor, with a number of other boys crashed out as well.
But where was Dan?
***
“You seen Dan?” I whisper to Evie
“He not down here?”
“Na. I can’t see him.”
“Could have gone to bed.” She replied walking into the kitchen coming out with two glasses of water.
“Thanks , I’m gona go up to his now.”
“Night .” She smiled “Good thing we’ve got food in, think this lot are gonna need a fry up in the morning.”
“Very true.” I laugh looking at them all sprawled out surrounded by I don’t know how many empty beer cans and bottles.
I walked up to my room, dumped my stuff down there, changed quickly before picking up my glass of water and heading up to Dan’s room.
I paused at the door, I could hear two people talking.
“Awww come on Danny baby. Liv isn’t here, I know she’s out with the girls I saw her.”
“Back off Amy. You said you came round to talk.”
“I do want to talk, but about us being together Danny. I’m going to be the mother of your baby, we should be together.”
“No. I’m with Liv, just because you are having my kid doesn’t mean I’m going to get back with you. I don’t have feelings for you.”
My heart was pounding so hard, so she did see me and this is why she wasn’t in Movida. I didn’t know what to do...I was frozen to the spot.
I heard Evie creeping up the stairs. I spun round and placed my finger over my lip and she nodded walking over to me. I tapped my ear, telling her to listen to them.
“Danny baby, I love you. I know you want me too.”
I turned to Evie whose mouth was in a ‘O’ shape and anger all over her face.
“Amy” she mouthed to me and I nodded.
“Amy get out. I don’t want you.”
I watched as Evie thumbed up at the door to Dan’s answer. I knew I could trust him.
“I know you want me, you just need to forget about Liv and we can be together again. I know you loved it when I dressed like this.”
I glanced at Evie with worry on my face. What was happening behind that door?
I wanted to know, but I didn’t have the guts to open it incase I saw something that would crush my heart.
“Come on Danny, she’s not here. I know you want to. You always loved me in this.”
I was about to turn and run down the stairs when Evie grabbed my hand. “Open it now.” She whispered and I nodded
I slowly opened the door...
