Caitlin heading straight towards them with a murderous expression on her face.
    She marched straight up to Jason, positioning herself between him and Ally and stared him straight in the face.
    “Caitlin, we were just talking.” Jason said taking a step backwards.
    “You don’t talk to her,” Caitlin growled. “You don’t even look at her. If I had my way , you would be rotting in some hole in a field somewhere. Now you stay the hell away from her. Do I make myself clear?”
    “Perfectly,” Jason replied, staring Caitlin in the eye.
    “Well don’t forget it!” S he snapped before she turned to Ally. “Are you okay sweetie?”
    “I’m fine,” Ally replied, her voice barely a whisper.
    “Let’s get you back to the others,” Caitlin said wrapping her arm around Ally’s shoulder. “This kind of upset is not good for you or the baby.”
    “You’re pregnant?” Jason said, this time his voice was filled with hurt and even shock.
    “That is none of your God damn business asshole,” Caitlin spat back over her shoulder.
    “Ally wait,” Jason called. “Is it… is it his?”
    “YES!” Ally screamed as she turned back to face Jason. “I am carrying Cole’s baby. Who else’s would it be?”
    “Mine,” he said, much to Ally surprise.
    “Oh please,” Caitlin said. “ Get a grip.”
    “I want to know,” Jason replied, his tone now more demanding. “It’s my right.”
    “No it’s not,” Caitlin snapped in anger. “She is marrying Cole and she is carrying his baby and as for you, well you can go to hell!”
    Without saying another word, she turned around and lead Ally back out towards where the others were waiting.
    “Where the hell did you two get to?” Hannah asked , quickly when she saw her friends return. Then she saw the expression on Ally’s face and panic rose insider her. “What’s wrong? What happened? Why did you rush off after Ally?”
    “Jason,” Caitlin replied , looking straight at Hannah.
    “Did he hurt you?” Hanna h asked, turning to Ally and taking hold of her by the arms.
    Ally could only shake her head in response . She was struggling hard not to cry in front of everyone else. She closed her eyes and the memory of him on top of her that night came crashing into her head and her stomach heaved.
    “What’s happened?” Laura asked, suddenly next to Ally. “Ally sweet heart are you okay?”
    “I just want to go home,” Ally said quietly as she choked back a sob. She wanted to go home and she wanted Cole. She had never wanted him more than she did right in that moment. She closed her eyes and fought back the tears.
    “I’ve got you gorgeous girl,” Cole’s voice softly filled her ears as she could feel his arms slip around her and draw her closer to him.
    Ally eyes opened and relief washed over her as she saw Cole’s face barely inches from hers.
    “What are you doing here?” Ally said as she could hold the tears back no longer.
    “You called me,” he said and she looked at him in confusion. “You must have hit redial and I heard you talking to that scumbag. Nathan rang Caitlin to go check on you and we headed straight here. We were only in a pub around the corner.”
    “Cole, I’m sorry… I…” she said but before she could get the words out he wrapped her tightly in his arms and held her close to him. “I just walked out of the bathroom and he was there.”
    “It’s okay gorgeous girl,” Cole sighed, trying hard to keep the anger he was feeling at bay. “I am here now.”
    He released Ally from his embrace and held her at arm’s length.
    “I need to you to stay here with Caitlin and Hannah,” he said, looking into her eyes and giving her a reassuring smile.
    “Where are you going?” Ally asked but she already knew the answer.
    “I will be right back I promise,” he reassured her. 
    “No wait,” Ally said , grabbing hold of his arm. “I don’t want you in any trouble.”
    “I won’t get in to any trouble,” he said with a smile. “I
