*ALFIE'S POV*

What a night!  Was my first initial thought as I woke-up in the bed, in a alcohol scented room. "Morning little one," I whispered to Zoe, well I thought I did but she wasn't there? All of a sudden there was a hurling noise coming from the bathroom. What could it be? I unravel the sheets and walk through the hotel room, reaching the door I tap on it lightly. "Zoe, are you okay let me in please?" I was beginning to get worried, I heard a loud thump and the room became inaudible. What's happened is she okay? I felt panicked as I slammed the door open, to find Zoe collapsed on the cold tiles shaking and crying. Scooping her up into my arms I run and lay her on the bed, I pull on a pair of jeans a tee-shirt and wrap a hoodie over my shoulder. Zoe lay slurring out what I think was words but was just nothing to me. I scoop her into my arms again and open the hotel room door . When I get out I run down the hallway, my feet creating thuds as I sprint. I come to a sudden stop as I reach the lift. Marcus and Stefanie were also waiting for it.

*MARCUS'S POV*

I hear deep breaths behind me and turn my head over my shoulder, to see Alfie stood there cradling Zoe in his arms. "Marcus help me, help us, help Zoe!" His voice all panicked. I released my hand from Stefanie's and took Zoe from Alfie. Stef took off her jacket and placed it over Zoe as a make-shift blanket. Alfie walked around holding his head in his hands trying not to cry  "Mate we need to get her to hospital!" I say to Alfie, just as the lift pings and the doors open Joe stops frozen inside, his face sinking "Zoe what's happened?" he stutters not knowing what to say. We all run into the lift before it leaves. Alfie takes Zoe back into his arms as I pull out my car keys from my pocket, another pings breaks the silence in the lift as the doors open again...

*JOE'S POV*

We all raced to Marcus' car as Zoe's condition was deteriorating fast. Me and Alfie sat in the back with Zoe laying across our legs as Stefanie sat in the passengers seat and of course Marcus stepped on it as fast as he could. We cut corners, overtook too many cars and maybe even knocked over a few things but we reached the hospital...
