A week later and it's like your little re-bonding night never even happened. She carried on just as she had before, spending all her time with him and cancelling her plans with you because "Dean's got a match and he needs me there, I'm like his lucky mascot." and that spark of hope you had after she'd admitted she missed you was quickly diminished.

You're lying in bed on Saturday morning when your phone rings, and it makes you jump because you were just drifting back off to sleep, barely even conscious. You scramble for it on your bedside table and answer it without checking who it is.

"Hey, what you up to?" You're still half asleep and can't make out who the voice belongs to, so you pull the phone away from your ear and squint at the screen to make out the name.

"Katie?" You grumble down the phone.

"Of course it's me you cow, are you still in bed? It's 11.30 for Christ's sake," Her voice is too shrill to listen to after just waking up, so you move the phone away from your ear a bit but you can still hear shouting in the background while Katie waits for your reply.

"It's Saturday," you reply groggily.

"Whatever. Get up and meet me in town for a coffee or something, I need to get out of this bloody house," It's not really a request, but Katie always orders people about so you're used to it by now.

"Why what's going on?" You ask, hearing the shouting once again.

"I'll tell you later, meet me on the green in half an hour." You grunt in acknowledge and that's all she needs before she hangs up. You chuck your phone back onto the bedside table and reluctantly heaving yourself out of bed. You quickly sort yourself out before shouting a hurried goodbye to your Mum and making your way to the bus stop.

When you get to the green Katie's already there, sitting on a bench and smoking with an impatient look on her face. You walk up to her and steal one of her fags out of her bag as you sit down.

"Hello to you too yeah?" She says in mock annoyance. You nod in acknowledge while sparking up and inhaling deeply.

"So what's going on?" you ask while slowly exhaling the smoke.

"It's a fucking nightmare yeah? Mum and Dad came home early while Ems had Deano round and well…they were being a bit loud if you know what I mean," You cringe. "Dad went ballistic and is like forbidding Ems to see him anymore."

"So hold on, they're actually sleeping together now?" You ask, making sure you haven't got the wrong end of the stick, and incredibly pissed off that Emily didn't tell you that herself, seeing as you were supposed to be best friends.

"Well duh, she needed to keep him interested didn't she," Katie says as if it's the most natural thing in the world.

"What the fuck Katie? You really think that's alright? He shouldn't have needed to be kept interested, if he really cared about her he wouldn't lose interest," You know you shouldn't be taking this out on Katie, because you know it's Emily who you're really mad at for not talking to you about it.

"Whatever, yeah? It's her life I'm not gonna go meddling in it. Anyway, like I said, Dad's threatening Ems that he's not gonna let her see Dean anymore, but she's not having any of it; going on about how she loves him and all that. It's really fucked up, and I'm scared she's gonna run away if she's forbidden to see him," Katie says sounding genuinely concerned for once in her life. "I was hoping you could talk to her."

You accidentally let out a bitter laugh and when Katie gives you a questioning look you feel you should probably elaborate. "I doubt she'll listen to me Kay, we've…grown apart a bit lately. Too busy shagging Dean apparently."

"Please," she replies, and it throws you off because Katie never asks for help, "I've tried yeah? But she thinks I'm on Dad's side or something, she thinks the whole family's ganging up on her or something."

You let out an exasperated breath, "Fine, but I can't promise it'll do any good."

"Thanks yeah? I appreciate it. Can you do it now? Hopefully the arguing's stopped by now but if it hasn't I might need some company out on the porch because I'm not about to step back into the middle of that war zone." You let out a forced laugh before standing up and starting the walk back to Katie's.
