Suddenly, James appeared with a confused expression on it face as the girls began to cheer about some sort song that was playing over the speakers.

"Yes! Yes! Tune!" Orla cheered

"It's our song, girls" Michelle said

"It's our song!" Clare said as she dragged Esme onto the dance floor

"I've lost Katya" James whined

"Let's hit the floor, girls!" Michelle said

The girls ran onto the dance floor with James following closely behind.

The girls began to dance, doing the dance moves of the song they knew all too well.

"So, how are you?" Clare asked

"Me?" Esme clarified

"Yeah" Clare nodded "About the whole James and Katya thing"

"I don't care" Esme shrugged "If he wants to lose his virginity to someone who hardly speaks english, it's on him"

"But, do you like him?" Clare asked

"He's a good mate" Esme said

"But do you like like him?" Clare asked

"I don't know" Esme shrugged "He's cute and I like his company"

The song ended and and immediately Michelle ran off after Artem, Erin ran off to find James and Orla was back at the chocolate fountain leaving Clare and Esme alone.

"Do you get butterflies whenever you're around James?" Clare asked

"What?" Esme asked

"I read in a magazine that people get butterflies whenever they're around the people they like" Clare replied

"For gods sake, Clare" Esme scoffed

"Answer the question" Clare said

Esme turned to Clare, an angry expression written on her usually calm face.

"Yes" Esme whispered so quietly that Clare could hardly hear her over the booming music "Yes, I like James and yes, I get butterflies whenever he's around me but i'm never going to act on it so it doesn't matter"

Esme walked into the kitchen, her face forming a sad smile when she saw James holding a paper plate.

He looked so happy, so excited. She didn't wanna meddle with that but she also didn't want James to make a mistake that he could never change.

"Queue to the right-hand side" Jenny's voice echoed through the kitchen "One Chupa Chup per person"

"James" Esme said "Listen, I have something to tell you, I think Katya is planning on having sex with you, tonight"

James nodded, looking at Esme with a smile on his face.
