New Year's Day... One week after Carla found out about Johnny  and Carla has had quite a few visits to the casino...

She woke in an unfamiliar bed and turned around to see that it was empty.
"Nick?" She began to wrap a bed sheet around herself as she walked towards the sound of a shower.
"Babe why did we..." Robert appeared from the bathroom "Oh hey Carla, got a bit of a hangover have you?" She was mortified. "What the hell are we doing in a hotel room together?!" He gave her a smirk. "I know you had quite a lot to drink last night but I'd had thought you would have remembered" he laughed "we were celebrating our big win, silly." They had moved back towards the bed now where Carla had began to get dressed. "What big win? What the heck are you talking ab..." She had stopped herself as she opened the curtains and realised where they were, she was down the road from the casino, she knew that because she had been down this street everyday since she found out, the casino helped her to forget.

"Oh God, I shouldn't be here!"
She picked up her phone and it read
*17 missed calls from 'Nicky💖', 2 new messages*
The messages read: 'Hey babe, where are you? Please let me know if you're okay at least?' The second simply read 'I love you. X'

Carla told Nick the same day, she didn't want secrets to tear them apart.
