I was woken by a stampede of students and the ear-bleeding noise of the school fire alarm.

I grumble as Claire shakes me awake for the second day in a row. I'll get angry at her later. "Why is the alarm going off?" I grumble into my pillow.

"The fire alarm is going off, we need to get out of the school you hungover dummy" I hear Luke grumble next to me. I turn my head to see the 4 boys and Claire up out of their sleeping bags and looking at me to get me up.

"Ugh fine, I'm awake...what's happening is it a drill or something," I grumble getting up and leaning on Claire.

"We think someone tried to make toast in the home ec classroom but burnt it," Claire says, holding me in a hug as we walk toward the exit. "It's freezing, why did we wear shorts?" she says, shivering as we walk out to the car park.

"I believe it was your idea, you wanted to look sexy..." I chuckle as we sit on a wall outside.

The boys walk over, "aren't you cold?" Claire says looking at them Micheal hands her his leather jacket.

"Put this on it'll warm you up," he smiles at her and she takes it wrapping it around herself.

"Thanks..." she smiles up at him.

I can sense something is going on, when Claire doesn't seem annoyed by this. I look at her then at my brother, "2 things what about me? I'm cold too and also have I missed something you guys are getting on without Mikey asking you out every 12 seconds..." I say, confused by all this.

They looked at each other slightly panicked, "It's a jacket it's not a big deal right Claire?" Micheal says quickly.

"Yeah it's only a jacket Liv," Claire smiles at me.

Ashton chuckles at the scene, "here take this," he smiles showing off his dimples and hands me his hoodie which is like a dress on me.

"Thanks, Ashton..." I smile up at him and show off my outfit, "what do ya think?" I ask people.

"It looks cute," Ashton chuckles, leaning on the wall opposite us.

"It's like a dress," Claire giggled, tugging Michaels jacket closer to her.

"You look like a bitchface as usual," Luke finishes with his usual remark which I ignore for now I can punch him later.

I smile relaxing on the wall when I see him... With his arm around her. My smile drops and the group notices and looks in the same direction, "he's such an annoying dickhead...do you reckon I should punch him again?..." I say leaning my head on Claire's shoulder.

"No, but we can beat him up for you," Mikey grumbled looking at him.

"Maybe you should try and talk to him about it to make sure he knows that you hate him and that you've broken up," Claire suggests stroking my hair comfortingly.

"Maybe... but I know if I do it today I'll either punch him or break down crying... I'll do it when school starts back." I let out a sigh I didn't realise I was holding in, "right now I wanna go have a long nap and maybe Mikey's best hangover cure smoothie thingy." I smiled up at him, he rolled his eyes at me but nodded.

**********

I spent the majority of the day in bed watching sappy romance films and the rest watching scary movies with Mikey, Claire and Luke. Ashton and Calum had some stuff to do to be ready for school so they weren't there. Usually, if we had a film day it would just be me and Claire, Michael might try to join us but wouldn't stay long. I'm putting up with Luke and Michael here because they were both kinda helpful yesterday. I hated to admit it though because Luke is such a pain in the ass.
