*Tara's POV*
I remember asking that question then just bursting into tears. I can't believe I've lost my best friend. This happened once before and I was a wreck, sure I acted like I was ok, but deep down, I was broken. I didn't have anyone I could cry to, anyone who would be my personal soldier. I have got to find her. I remember Nathan hugging me and telling me that we would find her, before he asked the boys if they had seen her. I looked around and each boy held the same expression.
Panic
Worry
But Jay, he was just staring blankly out of the window.
The lads then started texting the girlfriends, asking if they had seen Natalie. Each reply was the same.
No.
Nath then asked Big Kev to start looking for Natalie. They all knew how much she meant to me, I can't lose her, I won't lose her!
*Natalie's POV*
As soon as the girls read out the texts, we all started laughing at the thought of Big Kev having to drive around until they found me. But of course, they won't come to the hotel room first, where me and the girls currently are. Nooooooo. They aren't that clever.
All of the girls replied saying no. Part of the plan. Apparently the girls said Tara and the boys were an absolute wreck when I left, but I didn't believe them. So we set this up. I knew Tara would notice first, considering she is my best friend and we are never separated. She would then ask the boys, before panicking. They would then drive around for hours. Before coming back here. They would slump inside because they haven't found me and Tara probably sent them to my favourite places here, expecting me to be buying candles or skittles. But no. I will be waiting here, skittles in hand. Ready to attack. This is going to be fun.
*Tara's POV*
We have been going round for 3 hours now, trying to find her. I took the boys to every one of her favourite shops here. We even checked every general shop to see if she was buying skittles or even better, candles. Not a single sign of her. I was getting seriously worried now. The thought of her being alone out there scares me. She needs me to survive, we need each other.
Eventually we gave up and headed back to the hotel.
We walked, well more like stumbled up the stairs.
I walked in first, after putting the keycard in the door.
I opened the door, and was met by.....
A skittle.
To the face.
I was crying more and more at the memories of me and Natalie doing this to eachother. It always made us smile, but this time. all I was thinking about was Natalie, and how much I need to find her.
I screamed as more came hurtling our way, the lads cursing as many, many more were flying in the air.
Eventually, after about 5 minutes, everything settled down, we could finally walk into the room properly and I noticed her as soon as I walked in. Rolling around on the floor. Laughing herself silly.
My best friend.
