Teri's P.O.V

It is getting harder and harder not to eat. Mum has brought this amazing chocolate gateau back from the patisserie. She cuts me a slice and I look at it ooze the beautiful cream and chocolate sauce.

"Come on, eat up, Teri," my mum says.

"No thanks mum...I feel a little sick," I lie.

"Teri - you are eating aren't you?"

I feel a lump in my throat. I hate lying to my mum.

"Yeah, of course I am. I told you; I'm not hungry."

"We wouldn't want a repeat of what happened before, would we?" she says softly.

Charlie's P.O.V

"Hey, what happened?" It is Naomi, standing behind me. I sigh.

"Basically, Leo likes you and he thinks you deserve better than me," I tell her.

"What? Well, I don't like him. I forgave you, Charlie,'

" I know," I say tiredly.

"Call him then! He's your best friend!"

"Well then I must be a pretty crap best friend," I say irritably, but I pick up my phone and press on Leo's name.

I hold the phone up to my ear.

"Hey Leo. No, please don't hang up. I'm sorry, OK. I can't help that she forgave me. Leo, don't hang up. You don't mean that. You don't mean it Leo. Just come back round so we can talk. No, seriously, stop. Please Leo. OK. OK. I'll see you in twenty. Bye." I end the call.

"He's coming round in a bit," I tell Naomi.

By then, Tilly is awake.

"Morning guys. Hey, I was wondering if you and Leo wanted to come to my party?" she asks me.

"Um...yeah?" I reply, unsure.

"How can you wonder in your sleep?" Naomi scoffs.

"It's a gift I inherited from my great aunt Rose. She was a psychic,"

Tilly replies.

"The only great aunt you have is called Ethel," Naomi replies.

"You shouldn't mock things you don't understand," Tilly says, with a totally straight face.

"So..." I say, attempting to change the subject. "The party?"

"Oh yeah. It's on Wednesday at eight at Shell House, Coral Lane. My parents are on a holiday until the Friday so things might get a bit hectic."

I wonder what she means by 'hectic'.

"Well, I can definitely come," I tell Tilly. "You'll have to ask Leo when he gets back."

"Where is Leo?" Tilly asks.

"He went to get popcorn," Naomi says. "Yeah, he went to get popcorn."
