Authors note: thanks for the reviews and support :) I'm glad people know that this is my story and I did not steal it. Enjoy guys xxxx


"So how's school Dyn?" Kacey asked, talking to her sister through Skype on her laptop. They had been talking for half an hour, the first half Kacey spent talking to her Mum.

"It's still boring, nothing fun is happening." Dynasty sighed.

"That's cos I'm not there." Kacey joked and Dynasty giggled.

"You enjoying yourself?" Dynasty questioned.

"Yeah, it's so much fun. They work us really hard though, my body aches like mad!"

"Aww, it'll be worth it though." Dynasty smiled.

"Yeah...um, listen, have you guys heard anything from Baz?" Kacey asked reluctantly.

"He was supposed to be in Liverpool but now he's back up here, acting like he's turned over a new leaf." Dynasty answered.

"He's back in Scotland?" Kacey asked excitedly.

"Yeah." Dynasty nodded.

"I'm gonna contact him, I'm gonna apologise for getting him into heaps of trouble!"

"You did nothing wrong Kacey! He deserved it, Mum hasn't even let him back home yet."

"He's still our brother Dyn!" Kacey hissed, lowering her voice because Emma had just wondered out of the bathroom, hair still wet but dressed in her training clothes.

"Alright Kace, who you talking to?" Emma inquired.

"My sister." Kacey smiled, turning to face Emma.

"Hiya." Emma smiled, bending down to the height of the laptop.

"Hey, Emma right?" Dynasty double checked.

"Yeah, and your Dynasty?" Emma asked.

"Uh huh." Dynasty nodded.

"Dyn, shouldn't you be getting ready for school?" Kacey questioned.

"I have a free period this morning, besides, it's just turned eight am over here."

"Oh, okay. We're on our break, the time of day where we contact our families or take a much needed shower." Kacey laughed at the end bit.

"Hope you're not referring to me, Kace!" Emma raised her eyebrow.

"You know I am." Kacey teased and Emma rolled her eyes.

"I'm gonna go now, we'll speak to each other soon though." Dynasty smiled.

"Oh, alright. Give Mum my love." Kacey smiled.

"Will do, stay safe now. I love you munch." Dynasty blew her sister a kiss.

"I love you too, see ya." Kacey smiled before ending the Skype call. There was then a knock on the door so Emma went and answered.

"Oh, hi Ryan." Emma smiled, letting him in the room.

"You alright? Hey Kace." Ryan smiled.

"Hey." Kacey smiled back.

"I'll leave you two love birds alone." Emma smirked before leaving the room.

"What you been doing?" Ryan asked, standing next to where Kacey was sat.

"Just skyped my sister and Mum." Kacey replied.

"Cool." Ryan smiled. Kacey sighed heavily.

"I really miss them." Kacey admitted.

"Hey, don't be sad! They're gonna be there, waiting for you when you get back." Ryan reassured, gently rubbing her back.

"That's in like two and a half months though!" Kacey exclaimed.

"Do you want a cuddle? Cuddles always make a girl feel better," Ryan smirked, and Kacey nodded, laughing at him. Ryan walked to her bed and sprawled himself on it, patting the space next to him. "Come on then!" He laughed.

"Ryan...I'm not gonna get into bed with ya!"

"Relax, we're not going to have sex! Just come," He smiled and Kacey walked over to her bed and laid down next to him. Ryan put his arm round her shoulders. "See, this isn't so bad."

"We're still taking things slowly though, right?" Kacey checked.

"Yeah, I mean, I haven't kissed you yet!" Ryan defended, laughing. Kacey kissed him quickly on the lips, short but satisfying.

"Now you have!" Kacey joked. The pair stayed in each others embrace, in comfortable silence, when the sound of Kacey's laptop beeping broke the silence. Ryan got up to see what the beeping was.

"Kace, you're getting a Skype call from a Nikki Boston." He informed.

"Miss Boston?!" Kacey exclaimed.

"Oh, the woman you were telling me about! I wanna talk to her too!"

"No, Ryan, you've gotta hide! Miss Boston thinks I'm at a girls camp!"

"Just tell her about the leak problem." Ryan shrugged.

"With a boy in my room?" Kacey raised her eyebrow. "Just hide!"

"Okay okay, I'm getting on the floor!" Ryan sighed, getting off the bed and laying on the floor so he wasn't in sight.

"Hi!" Kacey smiled energetically once she'd answered the Skype call.

"Hey Kace, how are you?" Nikki asked in reply.

"I'm great thanks, and you?"

"I'm okay." Nikki smiled.

"Good, I know you've got work soon, I don't want to make you late." Kacey smiled.

"Times not a problem Kace, I've still got about ten minutes." Nikki returned the smile.

"Alright. Um, thanks for that letter."

"Oh, it's alright, I just wanted to check on you." Nikki answered.

"Yeah, I know, but it helps to keep me going."

"That's sweet, you just make sure you remember how talented you are." Nikki complimented. Meanwhile, on the floor, Ryan was getting bored of just lying there.

"Kacey!" He hissed quietly and Kacey turned around and shot him look, motioning for him to be quiet.

"Everything alright, Kace?" Nikki questioned.

"Yeah, yeah fine." Kacey turned back around and planted a smile on her face.

"You just seem a little distracted." Nikki stated, a little concerned.

"I'm fine." Kacey assured.

"Kace, come back to bed with me!" Ryan whispered, laughing to himself at the fact he was annoying Kacey so much. This time Nikki heard, but she couldn't make out what was said.

"Who was that?" Nikki asked suspiciously.

"No one, it's just me in the room at the moment." Kacey insisted, finding it harder than expected to lie to Nikki.

"I thought I heard a male voice, I thought the camp was a girls only camp?" Nikki inquired.

"It is, Nikki! Um, I mean Miss Boston." Kacey giggled nervously.

"Kace, don't be silly, you know you can call me Nikki when you're not in school!"

"Right, I just forgot." Kacey laughed, slightly turning her head to look at Ryan on the floor who was still laughing.

"I don't know if it's the quality of the computer, but it definitely looks like you're developing a tan!" Nikki joked and Kacey laughed.

"It's the computer, they hardly let us go to the beach and sunbathe in bikinis!" Kacey joked back and the two females laughed.

"Mmm, would love to see you in a Bikini Kace." Ryan smirked and Kacey stuck her middle finger up at him, without turning around to face him, her face turned red though.

"Sorry Nikki, my breaks almost over, do you mind if I go?" Kacey asked, wanting to end the conversation so she could give Ryan a much needed telling off.

"No, no of course not! Enjoy the rest of you're day, Kace." Nikki smiled.

"I will, and enjoy teaching! I'll contact you soon."

"Okay, bye." Nikki waved goodbye before ending the Skype call. Kacey turned around to face Ryan.

"You fucking idiot!" Kacey spat.

"I'm sorry, you're just so much fun to annoy!" Ryan replied, getting up off the floor.

"Miss Boston is gonna think that I didn't want to talk to her now!" Kacey complained.

"Well, you probably should have just introduced me to Nikki and there wouldn't have been a problem." Ryan shrugged.

"Why? You're not even my boyfriend." Kacey smirked.

"How does that work? Because you're my girlfriend." Ryan purposely acted puzzled and Kacey pushed him slightly.

"Stop it, you know I don't like saying boyfriend because it's so official."

"Well, like I said, take your time princess." Ryan smirked.

"Don't call me that." Kacey replied, rolling her eyes.

"Alright princess." Ryan answered, turning away to walk to the door and Kacey glared at his back. He turned one more time to smile at her before exiting the room.


"Look at them, it makes me sick." Elizabeth snapped, looking over at Kacey and Ryan, Ryan tickling Kacey and her trying to get away from him.

"Don't worry about them, Lizzie." Lilly, one of Elizabeth's friends spoke.

"It's not that easy!" Elizabeth whined, tears welling up in her eyes and her friends all huddled around her.

"Don't cry Lizzie." Eleanor soothed.

"Do you know what would make me feel better?" Elizabeth asked, a smug look appearing on her face.

"What?" Eleanor questioned.

"Revenge." Elizabeth spoke, looking slightly evil.

Kacey POV

For afternoon training we had circuit training for general fitness, I was pretty much used to the heat now. Ryan made it more enjoyable, it's a nice feeling to know that he's willing to go at the pace that best suits me. In the evening, after the boys had gone back to their camp, in the reception area Elizabeth and her friends were selling brownies, well, I say selling When they were actually giving them away for free. But dodgy if you ask me.

"Kacey, would you like a brownie?" Elizabeth asked politely, walking over to Kacey and her friends.

"Um...I..." Kacey stuttered.

"It's a peace offering, no hard feelings, right?" Elizabeth asked sweetly.

"I guess." Kacey said unsure, but she took one anyway.

"And you guys should take one too." Elizabeth smiled. All the girls took one and Elizabeth walked away.

"What do you think that meant?" Becky asked while eating the brownie.

"Dunno, but she's giving everyone a brownie." Emma shrugged.

"These taste...different." Maddie commented, after taking only one bite.

"They seem alright to me." Kacey replied.

"Well, I'm not risking it." Maddie turned around and put it in a nearby bin.

"I would lecture you about wasting food, but it's Elizabeth so it's fine." Emma spoke. The rest of the girls finished their brownies.

"See Madds, we're not dying." Chloé smiled reassuringly.

"Do you guys wanna hang out in mine and Madds until bedtime?" Becky inquired.

"Yeah okay." Kacey smiled.

Kacey POV

In Becky and Maddie's room, we watched a film on Becky's laptop, I soon started to feel slightly sick, but I just ignored it because it felt like it would go away. Luckily it wasn't just me, Em, Chlo and Bex all said they felt funny too.

"I really don't feel good." Becky complained.

"Same." Emma agreed.

"The brownies!" Maddie hissed.

"Maddie actually might be right!" Kacey exclaimed.

"I'm...I'm gonna be sick!" Chloé sprung off the bed and ran into their bathroom, retching clearly audible.

"Same here." Emma ran into the bathroom too, either throwing up into the sink or toilet, whichever one Chloé was not at.

"Can I use your dustbin?" Kacey asked, face very pale.

"Go ahead." Maddie sighed, Kacey grabbed the dustbin and was violently ill into it.

"Definitely the brownies." Maddie muttered.

"One of you needs to hurry up cos I can't keep it down for much longer!" Becky spoke.

"Luckily we have two bins." Maddie pointed out, passing the other one to Becky.

Maddie POV

I knew from the moment I tried those brownies that something was wrong. Our evening was ruined by the girls constantly puking. Becky spent most of the night over the toilet, and the next morning, Chloé and Emma and Kacey all looked really rough so I guessed they spent most of the night up too.

"I hate Elizabeth so much." Emma said through gritted teeth.

"I don't get it though, she was giving everyone else brownies, they seem fine." Kacey looked around at the other girls who all looked happy and healthy.

"She came up to us and gave them to us, it was probably a bad batch or something." Becky suggested.

"She's crazy." Chloé added.

"Well, if she thinks that she's gonna get away with this, she's mistaken." Kacey said slyly.
