A/N: I know this chapter isn't very long, and it's mostly just a filler which sounds a bit stupid as it's chapter two but it felt like the right place to leave it. :D Thanks for the reviews!! :D

Katie was rushing around, she was nervous about the group gathering she knew there was a lot of tension still going on between them all. She'd invited everyone, it would be the first time they had been together since the major break-up severed connections and meetings where held secretly to stop anyone taking sides.
A lot of the group didn't know of Naomi and Emily, most of them probably had never heard of Naomi, this gave Emily the task to have to keep Naomi in the room if there was one thing Naomi wanted to do, was she wanted to run.
The party was approaching quickly, swallowing hard Katie walked over to the couple who where speaking quietly. "Ems, can I speak to you quickly?"
Naomi looked at the two sisters, deciding to give them privacy stood up. "I'm going to the bathroom," she declared after Emily sent her a curious look and wondered off, blew her a kiss and sent her a wink from behind Katie's back.
"So Katie, what is it?" The younger twin asked raising an eyebrow, her attention turning back to her sister.
"Well I was going to tell you sooner, but then you would have just gone out or something. Well just to warn you, Effy is coming." Averting her eyes from Emily's face, she looked towards the floor she didn't want to make things worse but sometimes her sister just needed a shove in the right direction.
"Effy's fucking coming here tonight? And you've only decided to fucking tell me, I was meant to let everyone meet Naomi!" Emily shrieked at her sister, she couldn't believe it after everything she had gone though with Effy.
"Look Ems, at least then she knows and won't have to hear it from Panda who asked for her to come, alright?" Katie retaliated, and then she walked past her twin and started rifling through the fridge. "Naomi does know about Effy and you, right?"
Emily's eyes flickered to the hallway then to the floor, she hadn't ruined the present with the past.
Effy stood in her room, looking in the mirror her clouded blue eyes staring back looking empty, her hair curled. She wore a short dress, which was accompanied by leggings and boots. A small smile come across the girls lips, she wanted to reclaim something she lost.
Freddie sat still lounging on the sofa like he had since arriving at the flat, he didn't bother to look in the mirror because he couldn't give a fuck about clothes or how he looked because it wouldn't make the person he wanted, no loved notice him anymore.
She stood there looking at him, they was both broken sometimes she wondered if there past was to blame for any of it. She wanted Freddie close and in her life because it was safe, stable and something she could rely on.
They was alike, they was both alone, both clearly beautiful and both broken completely
Cook walked out of his room stretching, dressed for the night ahead of him walking past the sofa he ruffled JJ's hair, "We better get going, wouldn't want to piss off Katie now would we? Plus she said had got in the good shit, not just the shit cheap cider don't want to miss that now."
"Is that all that matters? Good booze?" JJ muttered loud enough for the other boy to be able to hear.
"What do you mean JJ?" Cook questioned, sliding a phone into his pocket and picking up a set of keys.
"You know fucking what, now lets get to this shitty party and play best buddies with everyone." Standing up and walking out of the door, Cook shook his head then followed him out
"You think everything's going to be normal again? Where we are all mates and have a laugh?" Pandora asked excitedly, she wanted everyone to be together she had been without friends for many years then when she gained a strong bunch they seemed to self-destruct right in front of her eyes.
They sat on the sofa; her head were placed on his chest and his hands playing in her hair. "I think it could be the start, it will take time for everyone to be like they used to." He spoke calmly, taking one of her hands and kissing the knuckles delicately.
"I miss those times." She whispered out loud, grasping his hand.
Kissing the top of Pandora's head, Thomas sighed, "Me too but people have moved on, Emily has apparently."
Pandora's head instantly shot up, "What? Emily's making monkey with someone else?"
"It's just gossip, but we will find out soon enough." Sending a reassuring smile Pandora's way, who then placed her head once again resting on his chest pulling her eyes shut, just listening to the Africans heartbeat trying to forget her friend's worries, but she knew deep down the party would end in heartbreak if the rumours where true.
A/N: I wasn't that sure about this chapter. :/ I've got most of the next chapter written already. :D
