When I get home Brenda and Jorge are in bed so I climb straight into bed and look at my phone.

1:15am 5 text messages and 11 missed calls from Minho.

'Why'd ya leave? You ok?'

'Em were worried, why'd you disappear like that?'

'God damn it Em answer your phone!'

'If you don't ring me back I'm calling the police and reporting a missing person! Em?!?!'

'Emily? We're worried shitless here, please tell me you're ok. I'm about to climb in my car and come and find your stupid arse! '

I sigh and decide to text Minho to stop him worrying and looking for me, if it wasn't too late.

'Sorry Min, I left my phone with Jess, didn't want to disturb you both. Think I'm just gonna sleep at Jess' tonight. Sorry for worrying you x'

'Holy shit Em you worried us sick, you just vanished. I don't care if I'm in a fucking orgy, you tell me when you're going somewhere in the middle of the night. All this worrying for a phone, I'm glad you're ok anyway, you have a good day?' He replies after I'm naked and my hairs down and I'm tucked into my own bed

I smile at that text, Minho really did care. Newt didn't bother ringing or texting me I notice which made me hate him more.

We text for a while before I use the excuse I'm going to sleep because I'm drained, which wasn't really a lie.

I put my phone on my unit and look at my ceiling, a million and one things going through my head, stopping me from sleeping.

Come 4am I know I'm going to sleep Sunday away so I text Jess telling her if Min calls I'm at hers asleep and that I'll explain when I wake up and come 5 I finally fall to sleep.

I wake around half 1 in the afternoon feeling like I could eat a horse so before even checking my phone I go to the kitchen to pour myself some cereal and make myself a tea.

"Emily, long time no see muchacho, no Minho today?" Jorge asks walking into the kitchen

"He's with Newt" I say bitterly

"You ok?" He asks clearly sensing the foul mood I have woken in

"Yeah I'm fine" I lie

"How are you?" I ask, not wanting to put Jorge in a foul mood either and drag him down with me.

I have a pleasant conversation with Jorge before taking my cereal and tea back to bed.

I unlock my phone to see 2 texts

One from Jess and one from Newt.

I open Jess' text first, ignoring Newts for now.

'Ok what?! What happened you need me to lie to Min for you? X'

I sigh and open Newts text, deciding I'll ring Jess in a minute.

'Me n Min were worried. You sure you're ok? Hope were ok. We will see you today right?'

I look at the hope were ok part and sigh

No were not ok!

Was I over reacting? Maybe. All I knew was I really needed to talk to someone about this.

I get to Jess' for 4. Jess let's me in and leads me straight to her room. I sit on her bed as she shuts her bedroom door and looks at me, crossing her arms.

"Okay woman, tell me everything!"

And I tell her everything, starting from the start. About mine and Minho's sexual relationship, about my kissing scene with Newt. About how me and Minho like him more than for just his good looks. About Minho suggesting a 3 way friends with benefits after they had slept together.
