(Krissy's POV)

"And then there's this thing," I said holding up one of my presents from last night.
"What is that? How did I miss you opening that?" Izzy asked, prodding the object with her finger.
"It looks like a melted rubber dinosaur or something. Look, it jiggles!"
Isabella burst out in laughter as I shook the weird dinosaur thing.
"Ow! I just punched myself in the nose!" she exclaimed.
"Nice job, Izzy!" I applauded, "And thanks Oli for. . .whatever this is. Izzy anything to say before we go?"
"Yeah. Oli," she said pointing at the camera, "I blame you for my broken nose. So yeah, thanks for that!"
"Haha, bye guys! See you next week!"
I waved to the camera and turned it off. I then spun around in my chair to face Izzy, who was going through my presents frantically. It seemed like she was looking for something.
"What are you looking for?" I asked, leaning over her shoulder.
She jumped up and nearly bashed her head into my face. That would've broken my nose for sure.
"This," she said nervously, "We forgot to tell them about Playlist Live." She held up the tickets and went back to the desk and turned my camera back on.
"This is a very special present given to both of us from none other than Jack and Finn," she announced.
I took one of the tickets and waved it in the air. "WE'RE GOING TO PLAYLIST LIVE!" I screamed, spinning around in the chair.
"We can't wait to meet all of our loyal fans next June in New York!" Izzy turned the camera off after that. She also said she would edit it later, sense I had already offered to edit the footage from the party last night.
"I'm so excited to go to New York! Aren't you?" I asked.
"More than you know!" she beamed.
I smiled back at her, then turned to my computer the edit last nights footage.

This might seem crazy, but everyone seemed to be acting weird. Everyone except Zoe. After lunch when Isabella had gone back to her flat, I decided I would pay her a quick visit. I left a note telling Jack where I would be. He hadn't been home all day, so I assumed he would come back while I was gone.
"Krissy! Come in!" Zoe welcomed.
I smiled at her and set my stuff down just inside the door.
"What brings you here?" she asked.
"I might seem a little paranoid, but everyone seems to be acting really weird."
"How so?"
"Well earlier this morning Izzy was looking threw all my gifts and when I asked her what she was doing, she jumped up and acted all scared. And last night, Finn came in really late. I mean, I know he was getting my present, but it can't take that long to get tickets. And Jack has not been home all day." I told her.
"That is weird," she agreed, "Would you like some tea?"
"Yes please," I replied, "Anyway, I came here because you seemed to be the only one acting normal."
She gave me an are-you-kidding-me glare and I corrected myself. "As normal as you can be."
She smiled, then turned back to the tea. When it was finished we brought it into the living room and watched cheesy sit-coms for about four hours.
At the end of the fifth hour, I decided it was time for me to head home. It was getting late and Jack would be wondering where I was, despite the note.
I bid Zoe goodbye and caught a cab back home.
When I got home, Jack still wasn't there. It was nearly eleven, he should be home by now. I was starting to get worried, so I called Finn.
"Hello?" came a groggy reply.
"Finn? Have you seen Jack?" I asked.
"No. Why?"
I was getting really freaked out now. I was trying hard to hold back my tears, and my voice came out hoarse.
"I haven't seen him all day. I woke up at six and came back a few minutes ago," I choked.
There was no point in stifling the tears now. Nobody knew where Jack was.
"Don't worry. Izzy and I will be over there as fast as we can. We'll find him, I promise."
We better find him. I don't know what I will do if we don't.
