Earlier that day💅🏾

When I woke up this morning I was hugging myself. I sat up and looked around for clay, nothing. I slowly stood up and grabbed my phone, slowly waking to the bathroom as I checked my notifications. I brushed my teeth and brushed my hair before making it messy again, it looks better messy. I went back to our room and got dressed into some random black shorts and a shirt. I got to our living room to see a huge mess.

Chip bags covering the floor, soda and beer cans everywhere, the couch tipped over, and one of the lamps broken. My mouth was wide open in shock. What the hell happened?

"Clay?!?" I yell out looking around a bit. "Nick!?" No answer.

I walk to the kitchen to see food all over the place. I look around for the two boys but I can't find them. I go to nicks room and poke my head in. Nick shirtless and covered in hickys sleeping in bed. He looked kind of peaceful. Then I saw him.

Clay sleeping next to him holding onto a pillow. He looked not so peaceful. His hair was a mess and he was drooling. I stood in the doorway confused and a little scared.

"NICK! CLAY!" I yelled making them both jump awake.

"Mmm be quiet George" nick said tiredly rubbing his eyes.

"Hey Georgie... George!" Clay sounded surprised.

He covered his chest with the blanket as he sat up and looked for his shirt

"Why are you covering your chest and why are you two sleeping in the same bed?!"

"I'm sorry George I know what it looks like I just- good here it is. We were drunk and-"

"Why is the house so awful and disgusting?! And, did you two have sex last night?!"

"Obviously!! Now go fight somewhere else I'm trying to sleep" nick yelled over both of us

I looked clay in the eyes glaring. He hit nicks shoulder as he stood up quickly putting on his shorts that were on the ground. We closed the door to nicks room and I immediately shoved clay.

"what the fuck?!? What the hell is wrong with you!? Why would you cheat on me?! Why is the house so god awful!?" I screamed at him

"We had some friends come over last night after you went to bed and we got drunk! I guess we had fun. God the house is a mess. I- guess me and nick got heated last night and had sex! I swear I didn't do this to hurt you!" He defended himself

"What if I had woken up!? Huh?! What if I saw you cheating on me with my best friend?!" I yelled angry that he would even try to defend himself

"The room is sound proof! You wouldn't have had to hear anything!"

"so you didn't think to at least tell me?! What the hell man?!"

"I'm sorry! I don't remember what happened!"

"I'm leaving clay!"

I went to our room and started packing my suitcase. Clay was begging me not to leave and that he was sorry and didn't mean it.

"Clay! Cheating is cheating! It doesn't matter if you were drunk or not!" I said loudly over top of his pleading.

"I'm sorry!"

"Good bye clay!" I said loudly as I zipped up the last bag and and started walking to the door with my things

He grabbed my wrist making me loosen my grip on my bags

"George please just let us try to explain ourselves!!"

"Let go of me Clay! You're hurting me!"

He tightened his grip as I tried to get lose.

"GEORGE STOP BEING SO FUCKING DIFFICULT!" He has never yelled at me angry before.

I froze as a shot of fear went through my body.
Nick came out of his room fully dressed now looking in our direction concerned. Clay let out a long sigh and let go of my now bright red wrist.

"Look George I'm sorry- but at least let us apologise" he said quietly.

"We have no explanation Clay, just let him leave" nick said, now and few feet from us.

I stood there silently not knowing what to do. Nick put a hand on my back. I looked at him with tears forming in my eyes.

"Do you know where you plan on going?" He asked quietly.

"I'm going to Karls house."

"Let me drive you"

I looked to where I thought clay was standing but he wasn't there. I just turned to the door and started walking with my bags. Nick followed behind me getting in the car with me. We drove to Karl's silently, i could hear nick whisper in an angry tone every once in while, not like he was mad at me, or clay, but at himself.

We stopped at Karl's house and Nick looked sick.

".. are you okay?" I asked quietly

"Im such an awful person. I'm the one who said to have a party. I'm the one who got the alcohol out. I'm the one who kissed clay. I brought him to my room. I'm so sorry George. So so sorry. I can't lose you. I need you." He was sobbing as the looked at me.

I pulled him into a tight hug rubbing circles on his back with my thumb. He cried into my shoulder apologizing over and over again.

"Nick it's okay! I don't blame you! It's not you're fault clay went along with you! It's not your fault you felt that way! He's the one im mad at!" I said pulling away from the hug, my shoulder is drenched.

He just looked at me with tears still streaming down his face.

"I'm sorry!!" He said pulling me into another hug before pulling away and wipe away his tears.

"Um, you should probably go inside now." He said quietly.

I giggled and hugged him again before getting out of the car with my bags and going to the door of the house. I let out a deep sigh and knocked on the door. Karl opened it with very messy hair smiling at me.

"George! What brings you- why do you have your bags?" He asked looked at my bags confused and concerned.

"Can I come in?"

"Yeah of course! Come in!"
