"There she is!" Kate shouted getting worried that she wasn't going to turn up to something she'd planned and opt to spend the night with Nick, it wouldn't be the first time.

"You didn't think I was a no show did you?" Carla laughed before giving her sister a hug. She had to admit that as much as she hated Johnny for doing what he did she loved having two more siblings she could look after, she missed not having rob there to look out for him. She and Johnny were even getting closer and if he emerged tonight she had something she wanted to ask him.

"I'm just glad you here now Carla,a hen party's not that fun without a bride" Carla cast her mind back to her last hen party where she'd gone home early to be with Peter. She knew this time she wasn't going home early,she wanted to avoid Nick as much as she could. She loved him but she couldn't help feeling guilty whenever he was nice to her which was pretty much all the time.

"Like I'm not going to turn up to my own hen party! Now come on don't just stand there misses get me a drink!" She ordered Kate to which she obliged.

"Here you go" Kate said whilst passing her the glass of red wine.

"What's that? I need a proper drink. Where's the jäger bombs?" She replied as Robert came out of the kitchen. She wasn't looking forward to tonight for that exact reason, him. Robert. She was sure he was going to do something to ruin it but as Kate handed her two jäger bombs she tried to put it to the back of her mind.

"Come on you what's up?" Michelle approached Carla and asked her.

"Why did he have to be here Chelle? Tonight of all nights." Carla replied quite angrily.

"Well he does work here babe? He can't just take a night off because it's your hen do can he?" Michelle replied quite sarcastically.

"I know that Chelle, like I'd forget he works here." Carla replied now looking down at her knees.

"Do you want to go darlin, I don't mind coming to the hotel with you now you know?" Michelle asked with a sympathetic grin.

"No, of course not. I'll be fine" Carla said with an unconvincing smile. "Honesty Chelle, go and have fun"

"Carla I'm not leaving you over here in the corner, you look depressed. Come on we're going" Michelle replied whilst reaching for Carla's hand.

"No Chelle I said I'm fine!" Carla said pushing Michelle away, shouting a little.

"Your clearly not, Carla you can't cry in front of everyone" she said noticing the tear falling down her cheek.

"And why the hell not? I can cry wherever I want to. It's a free country." Carla replied like her usual sarcastic self.

"Because then everyone will know somethings up and unless you want everyone questioning why your crying the night before the happiest night of your life I suggest we leave now" Michelle responded calmly, she knew Carla was hurting and didn't want to argue with her BestFriend.

"Okay,what should I tell people? I can't say I'm tired it's only 10.15!" She said checking her phone.

"Go and wait outside and I'll think of an excuse." Michelle responded.

"I can't just leave without saying anything! They'll be even more suspicious." Carla answered.

"Okay, let's say you just got a phone call from the hotel company saying your booking was for 10 and if you don't go now they are giving it away to someone else." Michelle said smartly and secretly please with herself for coming up with an idea so fast.

"Won't they ask why I booked it so early?" Carla cleverly pointed out.

"That's why we say that we didn't know we had booked it so early." Michelle smiled.

"Okay, you can do most of the talking though and if Sally blooming Webster or Metcalf or whatever she wants to call herself this week starts questioning anything I won't be responsible for my actions" Carla said whilst taking a sip of her now nearly finished red wine she had got after a few jäger bombs.

"Okay" Michelle laughed.

"Girls, I'm sorry to tell you that me and Michelle need to get going" Carla shouted to the group.

"What! You can't go now!" Replied a rather drunk Kate.

"Yeah this is your hen party!" Eva shouted.

"It's only 10.25 Carla! I never had you down as a lightweight" Sally slyly responded to Eva's comment.

"The thing is sal" Michelle stepped in to stop Carla from swinging for Sally. "We booked the hotel for 10 not realising it and they said if we don't go now then the room is going to someone else."

"Excuses, excuses!" Kate shouted whilst getting distracted by Sophie walking in. She had recently split up from Caz following her one night stand she had with Sophie.

"We will see you all tomorrow, make sure she gets home safely." Michelle said referring to Kate.

"Yeah! She's meant to be my brides made. I don't want her looking like godzilla" Carla added.

"Bye everyone" they both shouted.

"Goodbye you two" they all called after them.

Just as the taxi arrived and Carla and Michelle were about to get in they heard Nick calling Carla's name.

"Carla! Where are you going so early?" Carla quickly wiped her cheeks so Nick wouldn't know she'd been crying. But he knew, he knew straight away.

"Why have you been crying? Has someone done something to upset you?" He said in his soothing tone.

"No these are happy tears, i was just talking to Michelle about how lucky I am and how happy you make me" she replied with a quick smile. Nick sensed there was somthing more to what she was saying but decided to leave it as he didn't want to upset her.

"You two better get in that taxi then" Nick said and he opened the door for them both. As Carla was about to get in he stopped her.

"Oi you, where's my kiss goodbye" he said whilst smiling.

"Oh,sorry." She said whilst turning around to kiss him.

"I love you Carla Tilsdley" he said after she pulled away.

"I'm not Carla Tilsdley yet!" She responded hitting him playfully on the arm.

"No but you soon will be, you've always been Carla Tilsdley ever since the day you asked me to marry you. Now come on get in that taxi before I am forced to come with you!" He replied cutely.

"Bye Nicky" she said softly as she got in the cab.

"Bye sweetheart" he called after her as he shut the car door for her. And as she turned around and blew him a kiss sure enough there he was waving at her.

"I really don't deserve him Chelle, I don't think I can do it" she said.

"Do what Carla?" Michelle hesitantly responded.

"I don't think I can marry him..."

Please if you have time leave a review,I hope you all love it.
