YN'S POV

I sat on the balcony with Lorie for the next few hours. Not having the strength to face Morina, or Oliver for that matter. He didn't seem to be too upset, he haddent come to speak to me or even looked in my direction.

Lorie and I had finished off a 24 pack of beer to ourselves, me drinking the most, sitting there talking.
About Oliver, About James, Clothes, Food, Family.

Suddenly I heard the glass door open and my heart flutterd. I looked up hopeing it was Oliver,  but it was James.

- You two alright out here ? It's been quiet, . . With the both of you out here there's no one but Oliver left to scold me -

James's eyes flicked to the pile of empty bottles on the table infront of us and his face fell sad. He sat down between us standing up a few bottles than had fallen on there sides. He placed an arm around each of us and turned to Lorie placing a sweet soft kiss on her lips, I saw her smile form as he pulled away.

That's all I wanted right now, I was pretty drunk, and I wanted Oliver.
Obviously the feeling wasn't mutual, since I haddent seen him in hours.
Usually he's all over me, especially when he drinks. I tried not to let it get to my head. His friends are here, some he haddent seen in years.
He's just catching up.

I leaned my head into James's side letting out a sigh.

- Jamie ? , I think I'm drunk -

He smiled down at me loveingly before kissing my head, his breath was warm as he breathed in deeply before removing his lips and sighing.

- I know squirt,  I know, I can tell -

Lorie sat up giving James a knowing look accompanied with a soft smile.

- Dear, why don't you let Jamie take you to your room, you can nap for an hour or so before we start the bonfire, I'll come get you when it's lit, sound good ? -

I nodded in agreement as james held my hands pulling me onto my feet. I took a step forward and tripped over james foot. He caught me pulling me back to my feet holding me steady. He looked back at Lorie and she nodded her head as she started to clean up the table.
I felt my feet leave the ground as james picked me up bridal style to carry me into the cabbin.

- Alright love, iv got you, let's get you layed down Hmm? -

My eyes closed and my cheek nuzzled against his chest. We walked through the house past the liveing room where Charlie, Oliver,  and Morina sat talking.

Oliver shot up from his seat worry flooding his face.

- James ? What happend ? -

He glared at Oliver his face stern and defeated.

- Nothing , she's drunk and she needs to sleep it off, but you would know that if you'd botherd to go checking up on her in the past 4 hours -

Olivers hands flew in the air, his voice got defensive.

- I was talking james, I lost track of time. Here, give me her ill take her up -

James tone got deeper as he spit back in the same defensive, but protective tone. he sighed looking down at me.

- Shes half asleep already,  just leave her be, I'll take her up, you just keep talking -

He walked up the stairs and into a bedroom laying me on the side of a big soft bed. My eyes flutterd open as he stroked my hair pulling it out of my face placing it behind my head. He disappeared and I began to fall back to sleep.
