A few months later, Chelsea got down and studied the hardest she possibly could for finals week. She tried to subside all the distractions until she has finished the exams. Chelsea sat on her bed, scrolling through her laptop when at the top right hand side of the screen an email flashed up.

Hiya Iz.

I know how you feel... It's a stressful time at the moment. I hope I get the grades I want. Mrs Robinson seems to think I'll get the grades I want, so I can go and study Medicine in college. It kinda gives me hope you know.

How's life?

Chelsea pretty much jumped down the stairs with joy the next morning, leaping into the kitchen and grabbing the last piece of toast which Sophie was about to take and that caused Sophie to moan and whine to her but Chelsea just shrugged her shoulders and ate the warm food. She danced slightly towards the coffee machine and made herself a cup of coffee. Christine came into the kitchen a few moments after and watched her daughter dance around. "Good morning girls." She spoke first.
"Morning mom." Sophie greeted her after she finished her glass of orange. Chelsea spun around and waved at her mom.
"Hi mom. Good sleep?" She asked her watched her mother nod gently. "Great. Coffee?"
"Yes please, if you're offering... could you make some for your father?"
"Of course!" Chelsea moved around the kitchen and got two mugs and pour the black hot liquid in each. A good few minutes later, Chelsea picked up her mug and drunk the warming drink before going over and picking up her bag and walking to the door. As soon as she opened the door she was faced by a familiar face.
"Good morning Oliver!" She greeted him first.
"Good morning beautiful." He replied back, leaning in and pecking her on the cheek.

The walked hand in hand together to school and parted when they had separate lessons. "So you and Oliver hey?" Lola spoke first, plonking herself down in the seat in front of Chelsea's desk. "When was you going to tell your best friends?" Zoey came and sat down next to Lola and tutted.
"It all happened quite quickly..."
"No. Don't give me that quickly, you and him have had something since he got here."
"I didn't know-"
"Oh Chelsea come on. We saw it from the first day that you and Oliver were going to get together." Chelsea sighed a little then chuckled slightly.
"Yeah I guess so..."
"So have you two... You know..?"
"Oh god no. Girls can we not talk about this please!" Chelsea shuddered at the thought of the topic at this precise moment.
"What do you mean by "oh god no." You guys have been going out for a good 6 months now and you guys haven't even come close?" Lola spoke quietly.
"No.." Chelsea felt her face turn red. "We haven't even spoken about it... I guess we'll speak when we're ready."
"Well me and Tyler pretty much did it when were both ready when we got together but I made him wait and when we finally did-"
"Sorry I'm late class!" Mrs Robinson came running into the room and flopped down into her seat at her desk. "Car trouble! Now I'm here we can get down to sorting out these finals for you all..."

The final bell rang and that meant school had finished for the week. "So my parents are out of town this weekend and I'm throwing a party! Chelsea I want you to come and you Zoey! Everyone else is going so I expect you to be there! Okay?" Both the girls nodded and Lola smiled before blowing them both kisses and leaving them standing in the hallway.
"Looks like we're going to a party!" Zoey shrugged her shoulders and Chelsea grinned.

Chelsea walked up the steps to Lola's house and could hear the loud music drumming through the whole house. There was people everywhere, mostly on the porch with a drink in their hands and chatting to their friends. Chelsea smiled as she walked through and waved past all the people in the hall. As she moved more in the house the music got louder in her ears and she jumped when she felt someone crash into her. Lola moved closer and cupped her hands around Chelsea's ear and pretty much shouted "I'm so glad you made it! You look really great!!!" Chelsea smiled as Lola pulled away and handed her a glass. "Mom's secret stash of vodka! Drink up!" Chelsea grabbed the cup and sniffed, the drink contained some kind of fruit but the alcohol was pretty much overpowering it. Lola nodded and Chelsea took a gulp of the drink. "Great! Zoey's in here somewhere!" Lola grabbed hold of Chelsea's hand and pulled her through the sea of people who were dancing to the music.
"Chelsea you made it!" Zoey beamed and hugged her. "Come on, dance with me." Chelsea smiled brightly and finished her drink quickly before throwing the cup on the floor and grabbing her friends hands before dancing wildly. Chelsea looked around and saw more people crowd near and danced close to one another. She felt someone tug at her waist and pull her away from her friends, she quickly spun around and saw Zak, a fellow classmate of hers, pulling her backwards and forwards as they swayed to the music. Chelsea smiled as she danced, letting the music fill her body as she moved to the beat. Zak spun her and Chelsea giggled, she hadn't had this much fun in ages. Zak moved closer so their noses were touching and Chelsea pulled away, moving to his ear. "I'm gonna get a drink." Chelsea quickly moved away from him and walked over to the table which had the drinks on, she picked up a red cup and pour a good amount of vodka in and took it straight which caused her to cough and hold her throat and felt as the liquor burned on its way down. Chelsea grabbed a few shot glasses and filled them up before walking over to her friends and handing them each one. "SHOTS!!!!" Zak and his buddies shouted and a few of them ran off and grabbed some shots and came back. Lola giggled as she saw Zak and his friends come back each with their own shot and counted. "ONE." They shouted together above the music "TWO." Everyone put the shot to their lips and got ready. "THREE!" Zak shouted and everyone tipped the liquid into their mouth and jumped as it burned but they kept dancing. Chelsea jumped and squealed as she danced with Zoey. She looked around the room and saw that many people had vacated and left her, Zoey and a few others.
"Where's Lola?" Zoey asked as she scanned the room, and Chelsea nudged her before pointing other to the other side of the room and saw Lola and Zak kissing in the corner of the room. "She's going to regret that in the morning." Chelsea giggled then burped loudly and laughed even more when Zoey looked shocked. "Did you want another drink?" Chelsea nodded and Zoey walked off, leaving her standing there. Chelsea scanned the room, she had been having the time of her life but she not once saw Oliver around, meaning she wanted to look for him. She walked through the lounge and into the hallway, most people were outside on the porch smoking or just chatting and other people were on the stairs. Chelsea picked up a cup and downed the rest of the liquid and went to walk up the stairs. Chelsea got to the first floor and then fell against the railings, whacking her face against the wood and crying out as the pain shot through her cheek. She climbed up and continued the walk around the house.
"Have you seen Oliver?" She asked people as she walked past them but they ignored her. She shrugged her shoulders as she walked further down the hall, as she walked her eyesight became blurry and she had to hold onto the walls as she walked. She felt someone grab onto her arm and pull her into somewhere. It was dark and Chelsea couldn't see anything it was even worse than having a blurry eyesight. Chelsea jumped when she heard a door close and a lock sounded a few seconds after. "Who's here?"
"I've wanted you from the first minute I saw you." A low male voice sounded from the other side of the room.
"Who are you?"
"I'm ashamed you don't know me Chelsea..." The voice sounded quite familiar, a voice she heard at least half an hour ago. Chelsea felt the steps of the man come closer and he pushed her, she stumbled and fell onto a cushioned surface.
"No please! Leave me alone." She felt as the man trailed kisses up her neck. "Stop!" Chelsea screamed.

Zoey walked back into the lounge and found herself alone. "Chelsea?" She called out but she didn't show. Zoey nodded and drunk both the drinks. Oliver came striding in a few minutes later and walked over to Zoey who was just swaying on her own. "Hi Zoey. Have you seen Chelsea?" Zoey blinked a couple of times and just stood there. "Zoey?" Oliver waved his hands in front of Zoey's face.
"Oh Oliver! Hi." Oliver chuckled.
"Have you seen Chelsea?"
"Um.. I think... I saw her a few minutes ago."
"Is she here still?" He questioned her.
"Yeah, I think she went upstairs." Oliver touched her shoulder before walking towards the stairs.

"It won't take long, I promise Chelsea." The man said.
"No please just let me go! I don't deserve this!" Chelsea stammered out.
"I've wanted you since Lola dumped me." He spoke and Chelsea found out who the person was.
"Kyle? Kyle seriously! Why me."
"Shut up!" he shouted and slapped her round the face.
"Someone help me!" Chelsea screamed.
"Chelsea?" A voice from the other side of the door sounded.
"Help me! Help me please!!" Chelsea screamed and then the light from the hall surrounded the room as Oliver kicked down the door and Kyle got up from Chelsea and stood shocked.
"How the hell did you get through the door?!" Kyle shouted.
"None of your damn business, now get the fuck off my girlfriend." Oliver punched Kyle in the jaw with great force that he flat out knocked Kyle unconscious. Oliver walked quickly over to Chelsea and stood her up from the bed. "Chelsea, are you okay?"
"I...I"
"Shh, you don't have to speak."
"You. Look. Funny." Chelsea burped between each word.
"Chelsea you really put yourself in danger tonight... Im so glad I got here before anything else happened!" Oliver spoke gently. Chelsea put both of hands on his cheeks and squeezed making Oliver chuckle deeply. "How are you feeling?"
"Not good." Chelsea held her hands over her mouth and burped. "are we spinning?"
"No."
"I feel like we are..."
"Trust me Chelsea were not." Chelsea sighed and then dropped, Oliver caught her and held her up in his arms, cradling her. He tutted and then picked her up in his arms and walked out of the room and down the stairs. The party pretty much had finished by the time he got downstairs. Zoey was sitting on the couch in the lounge, slouching with a drink in her hand. She turned her head and stood up when she saw Chelsea passed out in Olivers arms.
"Oh my god is Chels okay?"
"Yeah, she's just had a little bit too much to drink, I'm going to take her home."
"She could stay here."
"No she's gotta go home." Oliver said almost immediately.
"Okay. Tell her to call me tomorrow." Oliver nodded and then walked out of Lola's house.
