Joeys pov :

Jack was still trying to hold me back even though Michael clearly wanted a punch. I guess im kinda glad jacks there cause id proberly be arrested for murder otherwise. How dare that piece of scum touch my sister.

Jack started to drag me out of the vic when micheal made some stupid comment about Derek i turned back to go for him again when lauren stormed in.

Even Michael looked scared due to the look on her face. Someone was getting a lauren branning punch . i see lucy out of the corner of my eye hide behind peter knowing just what lauren was capable of.

Laurens pov:

I woke this morning feeling really hungover id gotten drunk like usual last night anyway i taught to myself. Its then memerys started coming back to me shit climbing out the window and running away to the nearest off licence before somehow managing to drag myself home drunk . way to go lauren .

And now to add to things i was been made spend time with my mum and abi no vodka just flippin leomanade ugh kill me now.

We were sitting on the couch watching movies it was kinda nice except for the nagging pain in my stomach telling me i need a drink when my mam got a phone call. Appearantly oscers sick great my chance to escape i taught. After convincing her to collect him and talking to abi for a while i snook out the back door.

Yes finally i could get a drnk. I started to make my way across the square when i saw alice looking out her living room window. She looked really upset. I decided to bite the bullet and see was she ok i mean im not an addict i can go another half an hour without a drink cant i.

I knock on the door and she answers pretty quickly.

"hey al u alright" i ask her seeing mascara running down her face.

" no" she sobs as i wrap my arms around her.

After several minutes of her sobbing in my arms we made our way into the living room.

" come on al its ok you can tell " i tell her seriously starting to get worried.

" I ..I slept with Michael " she stutters it takes me a few minutes to even figure out what she said.

" oh al babe come here its ok" i tell her putting my arm around her again.

" he said it meant nothing it was just meaningless forgettable sex" she tells me.

I know ive only known her just over a year and even though she's older then me shes so innocent i feel really protective of herso saying im fuming is an understatement but i keep calm for alices sake.

" your way to good for him al he's just a creep " i say trying to make her feel better.

"he was my first a gave him my virginity i cant just get that back lauren" she says getting angry geez i was trying to help.

" just close the door on the way out " she says getting up and making her way upstairs.

Right thats it know one upsets my cousin like that i think to myself as i make my way across the street to the vic knowing Michael will be in there.

My previous taught of getting drunk completly forgotten.
