Tracey
Nick is still talking to Priyanka and it looks like they are arguing. I really don't need to be involved in that drama, I have enough drama of my own to deal with. I head away from the party and find a sun lounger to lay on so I can just be on my own. I am so confused as to what I want to do about Nick, I like him, that's not the problem it's just everything else that comes with it, dealing with Priyanka, the fans, him being on tour, am I moving here or not. It's all too much. I need to put a stop to it for now until I can get my head round things which I know he's not going to be happy about, when he looks at me I just lose any willpower I have, I hate that he affects my body so much. I can sense him coming over before he even reaches me. He lays down next to me and before he can do anything I jump up away from him, I see a hurt and confused look on his face but I have to do this now before things go too far. "Nick, we need to talk" I begin and again he's giving me this look that melts my heart but I try and block it out "ok, this sounds serious" "it is, we can't do this right now and by this I mean us! I shouldn't have started this by calling you that first night, it was a mistake and earlier shouldn't have happened either. I know this is not what you want to hear but we just can't. I'm sorry!" I don't even give him a chance to speak, I just run through the party and up to my room.
Sophie
Tracey and Nick are talking and it looks heavy, the next thing I know she comes flying past, through the doors and upstairs. I go after Tracey and gently knock on her door, I can hear her quietly sobbing. "Trace, can I come in" "I'm fine" comes the reply "Except you're not" I hear the lock on the door click open, I throw my arms round her and she just breaks down and tells me everything that's happened in the last 48 hours. I don't even know what to say, I had no idea any of this was going on. I see Nick out of the corner of my eye and just say to him "Not now" and he looks at Tracey sadly and walks off. "I think I should go home Soph" "no, you fucking shouldn't" I am getting annoyed now. "How can I be around Nick after this, I think I should just go home for a couple of weeks and try and get my head straight and decide what I want to do about this potential move." "Ok, how's about this, me, Joe and the kids will come back with you for a bit, I am due a visit to the UK anyway to see my family, you can chill out with us and think about what or who you want" "Sounds good but what about Nick" "Don't worry, I will have Joe talk to him. You stay here and I will go and sort everything out" "Thanks Soph, I'm sorry this has turned into a total shitshow!" "Whenever Nick is involved it always turns into a total shitshow" I head off downstairs to talk to Joe.
Joe
I have no clue what's going on right now. Nick looks upset, Tracey has gone dashing upstairs. I see Sophie coming over and she takes me to one side away from everyone and fills me in on what's gone on. I'm partly annoyed with Nick as she's only been here 5 minutes but then I acknowledge that Tracey played her part in this too. Sophie then tells me"We're gonna go to the UK with Tracey for a couple of weeks, I need to make sure she comes back and I'm also probably long overdue to visit my family" "Is she ok?" "Erm, I think she's just really confused" "I will go talk to Nick I guess then. Does he know she's going home?" "I don't think so no" I head off to find Nick who is talking to Kevin and Dani "can I talk to Nick for a minute guys" "everything ok?" Kevin asks "yeah, yeah don't worry" Nick just looks at me "Tracey is going home" "What? Why? No! we have to sort this out, she can't just run away and leave" "She is really confused mate, Soph and I are going to go with her and take the kids to see Sophie's family and we will make sure we bring her back, she just needs time to get her head straight, if you really seriously want things to work with you guys then give her this time to sort her head out" "Do I even get any say in this" No mate she's packing her stuff now and she is flying out tonight and we will be following her with the kids tomorrow morning first thing" "I need to talk to her before she goes, I can't let her leave when things are like this between us" "Ok, I get it dude. Let me go see what the situation is" I head upstairs to Tracey's room and I can see she has been crying, she looks up and sees me and I swear I see a little disappointment like she was hoping I was someone else "How's Nick" she asks, "He's a little upset and really wants to talk to you before you leave, can he come up?" "No, I can't Joe. If I see him it will make things even harder because I know he will try and convince me to stay, I need to go. Please just tell him I'm sorry" "Ok, I will tell him. Have a safe flight, text us when you land, we will be there tomorrow" with that she leaves down the stairs, out the door and into a cab, I see Nick go rushing out after her, shouting at the cab for it to stop but it just keeps going.
