I wake up in between Erin and Eden feeling like absolute shit, not remembering how I ended up with them in my bed, until suddenly I'm slammed with memories of the awful night I just had.

"Hey chicky, how you feeling?" Erin asks me gently.

"Like absolute crap. How bad was I last night?" I ask, slightly nervous for the answer.

"It was honestly heart breaking, listening to you cry and whimper. You were searching for John a lot as well. Production even came in to check on you," she tells me.

I sit there in shock for a couple minutes, processing the information.

"Oh my god. I'm so sorry," is all I can whisper out.

"Babe don't apologise. None of us are upset with you. All we wanted was to make you feel better, all of us can see how this is affecting you and how big the bond between you two is. You guys are literally soulmates, and this is some fanfiction shit with how you are away from him," she comforts me, Eden rubbing my back so that I don't fly into a panic attack.

"The only way we could think of to help you last night was if those two climbed in with you so you felt like someone was there for comfort," Tayla tells me, and I look around the room to see everyone smiling at me.

"Are you sure you guys aren't mad?" They nod.

"I can make dinner tonight to make up for it," I tell them, and their eyes light up, making me smile.

"Well none of us are passing that up," Justin chuckles, everyone else joining in.

"But seriously, thank you all so much for last night. You guys are the best and I don't think I'd ever get through this without you all," I tell them all, burying my grudges and turning over a new leaf with some people.

They all pile on top of the three of us in a group cuddle, minus Elias and Millie who are still up in the hideaway. We all get ready for the day and head outside, me getting to the kitchen before the others and flicking on the kettle and setting stuff out for people, having gotten used to our routine and what people eat. As everyone files in and out of the kitchen, they come and kiss me on the head in thanks, making me smile.

"Can we see Lexi in the Beach Hut?" a crew member comes and asks. I nod and head down with them.

"So Lexi, we know you had a rough night, how do you feel this morning? Do you need anything?" the head of production asks me.

"I feel exhausted, obviously but I just hope the others aren't as well. I think it might be a good idea to get me something to help me sleep, or have me sleep away from them if possible. Otherwise someone will end up in with me every night and I don't want them to feel like they have to do that," I explain, and she nods.

"We can try and get something for you to take, if not we might get you sleeping in the hideaway or something. If the others are willing to share with you and maybe rotate through people you're comfortable with, we can do that as well, but we'll put that to the group so that they have the option," she says and I nod.

"Okay, well later we will get one of the health staff over and they can get you something, but for now you can head back up," she tells me, and I leave the beach hut.

I head upstairs and plonk myself across Erin and Tash's legs on the daybed, noticing Cass and Jax in the pool.

"What's happening over there?" I ask them.
