Nobody Else

Chapter Twenty Four

Nathan's POV

I smiled as I sat at the bar watching Sophie on the dance floor. She looked so beautiful, without even having to try. I winked at her as she walked over to me.

"Hey gorgeous." I smiled as I quickly kissed her lips.

"Did you miss me?" she grinned.

"Yeah of course I did." I said as she sat on my lap.

"You lovebirds need to get a room." Jay said rolling his eyes.

"Ignore him, he's just jealous." I said to Sophie.

"We need to find you a girl." Kelsey squealed excitedly.

"No I...." Jay protested.

"Don't be so boring." she pouted.

"Just because I don't want a relationship doesn't make me boring." he argued.

Kelsey looked at him skeptically. He sighed and made his way back to the dance floor.

"What's his problem?" Kelsey asked as he walked away.

I shrugged and turned my attention back to Sophie. I smiled at her and gently tapped her nose. She blushed.

"Stop it, you know I hate my nose!" she exclaimed.

"Well don't, you're beautiful." I grinned.

"Excuse me why I go and vomit." Max chuckled.

"Where are you going?" I called after him.

"I'm gonna head back to the hotel, get an early night." he stated.

I nodded and watched as he walked away.

"I love this song!" Sophie exclaimed making me jump.

"C'mon!" she said as she jumped off the stool. I laughed as she grabbed my hand and began to pull me towards the dance floor.

"You know I can't dance!" I protested.

"None of you can, but I'm not asking Jay." she winked.

"I think he's busy anyway." I said as I glanced over and saw that he was taking a selfie with some random girls.

"Besides I doubt you're as bad as Tom." she chuckled.

I eventually admitted defeat and danced with her. She laughed at my awful dancing.

"I did warn you." I grinned.

She laughed.

"I need a drink now." she gasped.

I took her hand and led her back to the bar.

I watched her closely as she looked at her phone and sighed.

"What's wrong?" I asked gently.

"I texted Anna and she hasn't replied yet." she said thoughtfully.

"She's probably asleep, she said she wanted an early night." I reassured her.

I smiled at Jay as he wandered over to us.

"Tell Kels I've found a girl." he said smugly.

He smirked and showed us the picture on his phone.

"I'm not sure that's what she had in mind." I sighed.

"Whatever, I have to get back to my date for the night." he said as he picked up the drinks and wandered away.

"He's such an arse when he's drunk." I said.

I glanced at Sophie and saw that she was glaring after him. I turned my attention back to Jay and saw that he was kissing the girl whilst taking pictures of it.

I watched Sophie as she pulled out her phone.

"Have you heard back from Anna?" I asked.

"Nope but that dick has posted the pictures on twitter and tagged us in them!" she said angrily pointing towards Jay.

"Just ignore him." I said trying to calm her down.

I was slightly confused as to why she was so annoyed by his behaviour.

"Where are you going?!" I called as she stormed towards him.

I quickly followed her.

"What the hell are you doing?!" she exclaimed angrily when she reached Jay.

"What's your problem?" he slurred.

"I'm sick of you keep hurting my friend!" she shouted. I'd never seen her so angry.

"I'm not hurting anyone, I don't know what you are talking about." he replied sounding disinterested.

"That's because you don't see what's right in front of your eyes!" she shouted.

"Well I can see you." he chuckled.

"Is this your way of trying to tell me that you're jealous." he added wiggling his eyebrows at her.

She raised her hand to slap him, but I quickly grabbed her arm.

"Maybe we should all calm down and head back to the hotel." I suggested, still not letting go of Sophie's arm.

"Whatever." Jay shrugged and followed us as we left the club.

He walked in front of us, as I kept a tight hold of Sophie's hand, to prevent her from doing anything.

I watched him closely as he pulled out his phone and stared at it.

"I've got a missed call from Anna." he said thoughtfully.

He stopped walking and waited for us to catch up.

"She left a message." he announced.

"Put it on speaker then." I told him.

He glared at me and did as I suggested.

"Hi Jay it's me, I just wondered if you could come back to the hotel." I heard Anna say quietly.

She paused for a while.

"Anyway I need to talk to you." she added.

"Let go of me!" I heard her say.

I gasped as I heard sounds of a commotion and an ear splitting scream.

"ANNA!" I screamed even though I knew that she couldn't hear me.

I saw Sophie clap her hand over her mouth as the message ended. The silence was painful, as we stared at each other, trying to come to terms with what we'd heard.

"We have to find her." Jay whispered as his eyes glistened with tears.
