When I woke the next morning I felt safe; I felt whole. I felt hungover. Trying to remember how much I drank I rolled over and my vision was locked by a beautiful pair of brown eyes. I smiled and instantly forgot about trying to count the amount of alcohol I had had last night.

As my eyes were locked with his I felt his arms tighten round me. I managed to tear my eyes away from his when I heard voices and movement outside the door.

"Oh. You're awake now then?" Scarlet and Leighton greeted me.

"How long have you been awake for?" I asked sitting up; with Mikey moving with me so he didn't have to let go of me.

"About an hour." Mikey told me smiling.

"Why didn't you wake me?" I was shocked they'd been up that long.

"We wanted to but he wouldn'tlet us." Replied Scarlet glaring at Mikey.

"You're just evil for wanting to wake her up, she looks cute when she's asleep." Mikey replied; tightening his grip round me momentarily. I hid under the covers, the hangover headache was beginning with no help to them.

"Bathroom is right out of this door and its the third door if you're going to chuck up." Leghton told me and I laughed. Bad move.

"No I'm not, you're lucky it's just a headache. I'll get some paracetamol later." Itold her. "Can anybody remember what happened last night?" I asked them, reappearing from under the covers.

"Only the guys can and they won't tell us." Scarlet replied.

As Scarlet said this Frank and Gerard walked in laughing, while looking at Scarlet, Leighton and me. Last night couldn't have been good then if they were laughing; I want to know what happened now. I'll have to get it out of Mikey later when Frank and Gerard can't bully him into staying quiet.

"She decided to wake up?" Gerard laughed and eerybody except Mikey joined in.

"Well if you're going to bully me, I mighgt go home." I said sitting up.

Just then my phone started ringing. I looked around me but it wasn't there I decided to look under the pillows and covers but it wasn't there. I checked my pockets on the off chance it might be in there and it was. I answered.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Izabelle your Aunt Nicole and your cousin Cassie have come to visit us for a day, so get home. I think you should take Cassie to the beach." My mum's voice greeted me.

"I'll be home as soon as. Bye." I hung up. "Got to go home. My aunt and cousin have decided to come round for the day." I said as I got up.

"That sucks." Scarlet gave her opinion.

"Not only that but I have to take my cousin to the beach." I informed them.

"I'll come with you." Mikey told me.

"Thanks, I'll pick you up in about an hour." I said as I kissed him and left.

When I arrived home my mum, Nicole and Cassie were all sat on the porch. I got out of the car and looked at Cassie. She'd changed so much in a month.

Cassie was now 4"8 and she was only nine, but her dad was over six foot so we know its normal for her. Her hair was to her shoulders and was a mousey brown colour. She also looked skinnier than last time I saw her.

"Hey I'm going to go and get changed then we can go pick Mikey up and we'll go to the beach." I said.

-----

I pulled up outside Mikey's and went and knocked on for him. Luckily he answered and walked out closing the door. It sounded like people were arguing inside.

We got back into my car and Cassie started asking him questions.

"Have you always like Izabelle? Have you taken her on a date? Have you kissed her yet?"

"Cassie quiet." I decided to stop her there.

"Since I first met her I've liked her. Yes I took her to an Italian place. What do you mean by kiss?" He replied, I concentrated on my driving, instead of listening.

"Have you had your tongue down her throat?" She asked him.

"Cassie! You're only nine." I could feel myself going red.

"No, I haven't." He told her then looked at me and whispered. "Yet." I smiled tomyself, the 'yet' made me smile.

-----

When we arrived at the beach it was still pretty quiet considering it was nearly lunch time. I helped Cassie out of the back of my car while Mikey grabbed towels and Cassie's bucket and spade out of the boot.

We all walked onto the sandy beach and picked a place to sit. Cassie instantly ran into the water and messed around, while Mikey went and brought us drinks and I started to sunbathe.

Cassie soon came running back over when the waves got bigger. She sat next to me with a towel wrapped around her digging in the sand.

After a few minutes I decided to build a sandcastle with her. Building sandcastles' with her was actually fun.

Cassie and me are both only children, we have no brothers or sisters or even step brothers or sisters. We also never see our dads, because of this we always know how the other feels and we know how to cheer each other up.

Once the sandcastle was built we decided to go in the sea for a while, we dragged Mikey with us which was funny. I ended up picking Cassie up and chucking her in because she was only staying near the edge. I laughed at her and she started splashing water at me so I got her back.

Then we both stopped and smiled; we must of been thinking the same thing, because in unison we both turned and splashed Mikey. We both started laughing at Mikey until he got us back, which started a huge fight.

-----

It had started to rain; so we ended up sitting in my car with towels wrapped round us eating chips - Cassies' idea of a late lunch - while we ate we laughed about the day we had had. I didn't actually realise how much fun we'd had.

Once we had finished eating I drove home; I took the long way for a change. When we were only five blocks away from the beach I looked in the rearview mirror to check on Cassie and she was fast asleep on the backseats.

I decided to drop Cassie off at mine first because Nicole will want to get out of this neighbourhood before dark. I picked Cassie up off the backseats carefully and carried her inside. I gave my Aunt Nicole a hug and ran back to my car.

"Cassie reminds me of you." Mikey told me as I started the car.

"You only met her today and you've only known me a week." I reminded him.

"I know, but she's kind of a mini you. She's enerjetic, funny and she won't stop at nothing until she gets it right." He explained and I could see his point. Cassie is a mini-me. She even looks like me when I was her age.

I stopped outside his house. We sat in complete silence for a few minutes, but it wasn't an akward silence, it was a comfortable silence both of us.

I suddenly started giggling at something I remembered about last night.

"What you giggling about?" Mikey asked smiling at me.

"Hope you have fun in your detention tomorrow." I smiled back at him.

"Oh I will, seen as though you're going to be there as well." He replied. I didn't understand what he meant but I didn't like the sound of it.

"Why will I be there?" I asked him looking scared.

"I rang him off your phone remember? And I forgot to block your number." He told me and kissed me so I'd forget to argue back. I'd totally forgot where I was and what time it was.

"Well at least you can say you had your tongue down my throat now." I laughed remembering Mikey answering Cassie's questions earlier.
