That evening, Stampy and I decided it was time to speak to Rachel, who was still hidden away in her room. I took a glass of water for her and we stood outside the door, knocking gently.

"Rae? It's me and your dad, can we come in please?" I spoke softly, biting my lip nervously. When I recieved no answer, I pushed down on the handle but it was locked, making me frown.

"Rachel? We know you're awake, c'mon" my husband attempted, knocking on the door with a frown. We heard a little click, indicating the door had been unlocked so I pushed it open and stepped inside to reveal Rachel sat on her bed, laptop in front of her.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, what's wrong? I'm trying to watch videos" she dismissed, making me and my husband glance at eachother in confusion. We both knew something was up with her, it'd just be getting it out of her that'd be difficult.

"Rae why're you hiding away in your room? Something's going on, and you need to talk to us" I breathed, pulling the laptop away from her as it was distracting her from us.

"There's nothing up. I just wanted to be alone" she shrugged, avoiding our gaze.

"Have you been to see Max today?"

"No"

"Has something happened between you two?" Stampy asked, going to sit beside her but she moved as he neared her, making me own heart break so I couldn't comprehend how he must've felt about it.

"No! There's nothing wrong for Godsake, just go away!" She yelled, standing up and pushing us both towards the door.

"Rae, we just want to help!" I told her, but she was having none of it. As soon as she got us both outside her room, she slammed the door shut and we heard another click, indicating it had been locked. I let out a sigh as Ben wandered towards us with a confused look.

"Is she okay? She's not even spoken to me today, I'm worried" He mumbled, sadness printed across his face.

"I don't know" I replied, shaking my head as we hugged "somethings up but she's not telling us, and that's worrying me"

"Me too" he nodded, rubbing my back comfortingly "But I'm sure she will be okay mum"

"Yeah" I whispered, glancing at her door before we headed downstairs, where Gemma and Jack were watching films. I smiled at them and just headed into the kitchen to make our tea.

That night, we all went to bed and settled down. All the kids were asleep as well as Stampy, but I was too busy worrying and was unable to sleep so I laid awake for a little while, staring at the ceiling as I wondered what could be wrong with Rachel, until I heard a door open, then footsteps leading away from the room.

"Stamps, wake up" I whispered, shaking him "Can you hear that?"

"Footsteps?" He mumbled, eyes widening as I nodded. We both got up, and he grabbed a candle holder as his weapon, making me shoot a questioning look and shake my head. We headed to the top of the landing and looked down to see Rachel heading out the front door.

"What the hell?! She's alone too!" I spoke after the door closed "Where's she going!?"

"I don't know, but we need to find out. Call her. We can't leave the kids" my husband ordered as we hurried into another room where we could see her walking down the street.

"Okay, go check she didn't leave a note or anything" I told him, dialling her number. He rushed off and I put the phone to my ear, only to get through to voicemail, so I sent her a message;

To: Raee x
From: Mum

Where are you going!?! Come home!! x
Read: 01:13am

I groaned, seeing that it was now 1:20am and she still hadn't replied, and Stampy told me there was no note or anything from Rae which left me even more confused. I was literally crying and shaking, trying to work out where she was going. Had she gone to a friends? Was she running away?

I just wanted her to be home and safe.
