(clay & nicks pov)

both the boys turned there heads as they heard a scream. it was george's scream. clay grabbed nicks hand and ran down the stairs. it sounded like the scream came from the bathroom, they pushed through the massive crowds and quickly got to the downstairs bathroom.

nick knocked— "hey whoever's in here open the fucking door before i knock it down" he sounded serious but there was no answer. this annoyed clay causing him to yell "OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR RIGHT NOW" to everyone's surprise, the door opened.

someone walked out but it wasn't george. he was around 5'11 with blue eyes and fluffy brown hair. he had a concerning smirk on his face as he walked out the room.

clay gripped onto the mysterious mans arm causing him to stay close while he wondered if george was in there. a million thoughts were going through his head. however, nick was raging at this point so he stormed into the room. george was sat in the corner of the bathroom— crying.

nick didn't know what fully happened but he guessed that george would want to leave.

"come on let's get out of here, okay?" he sounded so concerned. no reply came— just a simple nod from george. nick put one of his arms around george and they both walked out of the room without exchanging anymore words.

however, clay was pissed off at this mysterious man. the blonde was still tightly gripping his arm. clay had punched this unknown man strait in the nose. blood came rushing down his face as he grabbed his nose in pain.

"YOU ASSHOLE" the unknown man screamed in pain. clay could feel his blood boiling at this moment— he tackled him down to the ground.

"YOUR FUCKING SICK DUDE—" he stopped and saw george leave before he continued "IF YOU EVER COME NEAR GEORGE AGAIN ILL BREAK MORE THAN JUST YOUR NOSE" that indeed was a threat.

after clay continuously threw punches at the mysterious man, he got up and sprinted outside looking for his best friend nick and george. there was no sign of them so he decided he would run to george's house. honestly, he just guessed they would be at george's house considering his own room would be more comforting for him.

clay eventually arrived at george's. he kept thinking to himself— what if he didn't want to see me considering our past? what if he hates me still? will i make it worse? he pushed all his thoughts aside and entered the house without knocking. he ran up the stairs and into george's bedroom, once he entered he saw george laying in his bed crying while nick was sat at the end trying to comfort him.

the blondes heart immediately shattered into a thousand pieces seeing george like this and he had no idea why because they broke up awhile ago so clay assumed he was getting over it now but clearly he still had feeling for the brunette.

nick quickly cocked his head around and to his surprise, he saw clay standing there with a sad expression. "clay what are you doing here?" he wondered. a quick response came "i'm here to comfort george, kay?" nick muttered "okay just don't say or do anything dumb"

george was still in the room but he had completely zoned out so he had no idea what they were talking about— he just assumed it was about him. the brunette felt safe with clay, he always had. clay had been georges safe place since they met. he missed his safe place.

                   (karl and alex's pov)

karl and alex had just arrived home— they snuck up to karl's bedroom but managed to peak through george's door without being noticed and saw both clay and nick trying to comfort george's while he cried.

the boy with the beanie looked over to karl— whys george crying? no wait what's clay doing here? and what's nick doing on george's bed? he had so many questions right now but he pushed them aside and walked into karl's bedroom.

"dude what happened with those three" alex started. "honestly i've got no idea! i'll ask george in the morning when everyone goes, im sure he'll tell me" karl continued "do you think clay has something to do with this?" he sounded serious. "honestly it's possible that clays involved but whys nick here" they were both getting more and more confused.

both the boys sat in a comfortable silence wondering what happened. if you tried to listen hard enough, you could hear george crying and nick was trying to ask what happened at the party.

it was pure chaos.
