bed.
    “ She’s a little excited,” Matt notes with a smile as he enters the room.
    “ It went fine,” I nod at her and collapse back on the bed “God, I’m knackered. What’s the time?”
    “ Eleven. Where’s Tucker?” she asks, getting up from the bed and gathering some clothes for me.
    “ I left him at the club last night. What are you doing?” I lift myself up onto one elbow and watch as she starts flinging clothes at me.
    “ Get dressed; we’re taking you to breakfast.”
    “ Fine.” I drag myself into the bathroom to get dressed.
     
    “I’ll text Tucker. If he wants to join us he can; but if not, he can stay asleep,” Matt says as we make our way down to a pub on the beachfront.
    “ I didn’t get in until two, so I have no idea how long I’m going to last tonight,” I tell them, ordering my coffee and a big breakfast.
    “ Well, you better make sure you’re going to last because I want to have the best night ever tonight!” Sophie says, squealing a little.
    “ Oh and uh…we saw Jason before we left this morning. We tried ducking him, but he caught us loading the car,” Matt tells me, looking sympathetic.
    “ I better ring him them.” I sigh and walk out the back dreading the phone call.
    “ Hi,” I say softly into the phone once he’s answered.
    “ Having fun?” I can’t detect his mood; he’s controlling his voice perfectly.
    “ Yeah, it’s been fun so far.”
    “ So. I bumped into Matt and Sophie this morning,” straight to the point.
    “ Yeah, they came down this morning. We’re going to a hen/stag tonight.”
    “ So it was just you and Tucker last night?”
    “ Yeah…”
    “ Did you sleep with him?”
    I stare at my phone for a second.
    “What? No, of course not! I didn’t even go back to the hotel the same time as him.”
    “ I think we need to have a talk when you get back, Brooke.” I can hear him sigh into the phone and wonder if he’s going to break up with me when I get back.
    “ Okay.” I bite my lip, not sure if I should be worried or not. I do like him, but he’s been pressuring me lately and believing the rumours over me. I know this weekend probably hasn’t helped, but I should be able to go out with my friends. He hangs up on me without saying goodbye; so I scroll through my messages, but I don’t have anything important that needs replying to.
    “ Can I have an orange juice please?” I look around the bar and watch as people come in, obviously hung over as they all settle into the tables laughing and talking about the night before.
    “ What did he say?” Sophie asks sliding up next to me at the bar.
    “ He asked if I slept with Tucker last night.”
    “ Again?” she sounds just as bored as I am with this whole thing.
    “ Yup. He also said we need a talk when I get back tomorrow. I can just imagine all the rumours that are going around already. It’s killing me Soph, I can’t do anything anymore. It was so much easier when no one noticed me.”
    “ Don’t let them get you down,” she rubs my arm.
    “ I’ve been trying not to, but now, I just think I need a break from it all. Being here and not knowing anyone; not having to hear my name being whispered when I walk past someone…it’s like heaven.”
    “ Come on, let’s go join the boys. Tucker came back while you were outside.”
    We walk back to the table just as our food is being served.
    “Are you going to eat all that?” Matt asks, staring at my plate overflowing with sausages, eggs, bacon, mushrooms, and beans.
    “ Nope,” I shake my head, and on cue Tucker grabs one of my sausages.
    “ Now I understand. What would you have done if he didn’t come?”
    “ He would have; you mentioned food.” I slap Tucker’s hand away when he reaches for my coffee. “Don’t touch. Get your own,” I practically growl at him, but he just pouts.
    “ What are we doing today?” Matt asks, tucking in to his own breakfast.
    “ I was actually going to go for a walk or something, if
