Started with a Hickey - On Hold

Chapter 10

I'M AN IDIOT🍦

Quinton's P.O.V
After Bryce asked if we could talk, he grabbed my arm and dragged me to the bathroom. It honestly kind of hurt, but I was low key to scared to say anything. Not exactly scared of Bryce but more of what he was about to say.

After dragging me to the bathroom we stood in awkward silence for awhile before he actually began to talk. He basically explained to me how sorry he was and that he had no right of hitting me. He also told me that he knew why I was pulling ( I may or may not have forgotten what I called Bryces "girlfriend" so now i will just be addressing her as Becky ) Becky.  The part of the speech that really stood out to me was the part where he called himself an idiot. I couldn't help but smiling at that bit.

He apologized for quite awhile before I finally gave him my forgiveness. I may not be the most confident person but I am really good at holding a grudge so he was honestly lucky I forgave him as quickly as i did.

I told him I needed to shower and I think he took that as his queue to leave, because he was out the room in .8 seconds. I plugged my phone into the wall, setting my phones timer on for ten minutes because it was already like 2am, so I didn't need to shower for long. I just needed to get all the gross party grease off of me.

I hopped in the shower and when the timer went off I quickly got out. I came to the sudden realization that I didn't bring my pyjamas into the bathroom with me to change into. I had four options of what I could do now.

1. Call or text somebody from another room to come and bring me some clothes
2. Wake Mads or Ness up and tell them to bring me clothes
3. Get Bryce to bring me clothes
4. Try my best to get myself clothes with just a towel around my waist.

I decided to immediately cross one and two off my list because I would feel bad doing either of those. In the end I decided on going for number four because I didn't want Bryce going through my bag and seeing all my underwear. 

So, I scurried out of the bathroom trying to be quiet. Mads and Ness were still sleeping and Bryce was lying down on "our" bed. However he did have headphones on so that was a bonus. I tried walking to my suitcase inexplicable but it obviously failed because I could hear the sound of headphones being removed. I tried to quickly pull any shirt on i could find to try and cover my gigantic stomach. The shirt was however on the ground and I had no idea who it belonged to.

We made eye contact and he looked at me with a smirk. I got a bit uncomfortable at the way he was looking at me. I guess he noticed because he was quick to explain that the shirt was his. I could feel my cheeks burn 10x more than usual with a deep red blush. He chuckled at this. Then his face became more of a serious one. He walked closer to me examining me almost. I became completely self conscience and crumpled into myself.

Bryce was so close to me that if I took one step forward out chests would be compressed together. Bryce took his hand and tilted my chin. "Ummm Quinton, what is this?" He asked. I looked at him confused and walked over to the mirror to see what he was looking at, it was the hickey that strange man left. " Oh that, it's nothing." I tried to lie. I could tell he wasn't having that crap.

I eventually spilled about what was happening and he looked almost angered. I was a tad bit frightened. His face did soften though and so did my nerves. " I'm sorry that happened to you Q," My heart fluttered at the nickname. " Worse has happened to me, trust me," i replied. " What do you mean?" he asked seriously. "never mind" I said, kicking myself for being so dumb. He looked a little sad but I ignored it remembering I still wasn't completely dressed. I went to my suitcase, grabbing some sweats and underwear, along with a random hoodie I found on the floor.

I once again didn't know who it belonged to but I just took it into the bathroom and changed into it. It was now a little bit past 3am. When I got back into the room Bryce was on the bed. I crawled in beside him. I was glad things were cool between us again. It would still take some time for me to actually forget what happened but for now everything seemed nice. we were facing each other and I smiled saying good night and him saying it back. We then both fell asleep. Only two more days until we go back to sway
