●Clara's POV●
When I woke up I didn’t find Nicholas by my side. Then I remembered that I asked him to leave before Lauren could see. I smiled thinking how much he cared. Suddenly I looked at the clock and saw it’s 10 in the morning.
Holy crap! Cold medicine.
I hurried downstairs without changing. I was wearing a large thigh length t shirt the one I feel comfortable to sleep with. Everyone was on the dining table. But I didn’t see Harry. And my ego didn’t let me ask for him. I sat beside Nicholas.
“Good morning, beautiful”. He said putting his arms around my shoulder.
“Good morning, hon. Thank you for the cuddle last night. I wouldn’t be able to sleep that late without it.” I said resting my head on his shoulder.
Lauren raised an eyebrow
“What cuddle you are talking about? What did you two do last night?” She asked suspiciously.
“Don’t worry Lauren . When we’ll do it the whole neighbors would know.” He said smiling at her.
Everyone laughed. Well, Lauren wasn’t ready for the comeback.
I slapped on his arms and looked at him in warning eyes. Just then his phone ranged and he left “Excuse me”.
“Looks like only 3 of us were drunk last night.” Said Zayn.
“3? But Harry is sleeping because he’s sick. You don’t need any excuse to wake up late.” Gigi said sipping her juice.
“First of all, I slept late so I woke late. I wasn’t drunk, you know that very well Zayn.” I said with pride.
“Sometimes I wish you really get drunk. So that we could know what is going on in that head of yours since you don’t let us know anything.” There was concern in his voice. My brother was worried about me still. I wasn’t fooling him.
“Then guess I’m just like you brother.” I said meeting his gaze.
“Anyways, I’m done. Shall we leave Zayn?” Gigi got up from the table
“Where are you guys going?” I asked.
“We have an invitation to a fashion show. We just talked about it earlier. You were asleep then.” Zayn got up too.
“Yeah, Lauren and I are also going out.” Niall declared.
“Wow, looks like everyone planned their date. Gotta see what I and Nick can do.” I mumbled.
"Okay, goodbye guys.” Zayn and Gigi kissed my cheek before leaving.
“Bye, have good day.” I called behind them.
Nicholas came back with a sad face.
“I’m so sorry babe. I gotta go now. I got a call from my PA. I almost forgot my next suiting is in LA.” He said with a pained face. Clearly he wasn’t happy being apart.
“It’s ok, sweetheart. Your work is important. Don’t worry I’ll be fine.” I assured him despite my disappointment.
“Aww, babe. I’ll miss you.” He pulled me up in a tight hug.
“I’ll miss you too.” I meant that.
He left kissing my forehead.
“Great, then you will get a chance to treat patient again.” Lauren ’s voice pulled me back to the reality. I was too absorbed in looking at Nick’s departure.
I didn’t get what Lauren said.
“What that means?” I asked.
“We’re all leaving and Nicholas is gone too so I guess you are all free today. And I can clearly see that you almost forgot Harry is sick home. Why don’t you give him some time then?”
I couldn’t believe she said that. Was she being serious!
“What? Lauren , you are doing this willingly, right?” anger boiled inside me.
“Why would I? there’s no choice. And why are you reacting? You don’t have any feelings for him so why would you have any problem.”
“You fucking know everything, Lauren .” I snapped losing my control.
“Yes, I know. That’s why I’m doing this. Come on, Niall.” She said with equal rage and stomped outside the house.
