The Girl In The Dirty Shirt

Chapter 37

The next morning we were all in pretty rough shape. I couldn't shake what Noel had said; I had a hard time getting to sleep with that spinning in my head and the drugs pumping through my veins.

It was pouring rain when we left for the airport; which made for an extremely bumpy flight. I'm sure it made Liam think twice about flying anywhere with me ever again.

We landed at the airport at noon that same day despite being in the air for eight hours. The time difference was really taking its toll.

We all congregated in Noel's suite once we got settled, as per usual. Liam and I were sharing a room with Guigsy.

Noel had disappeared that night leaving the rest of us to do what we pleased.

Liam and I retired to our room like a couple of old people and managed to get half way through a movie before someone banged on our door.

I sighed getting up from the bed as Liam paused the movie. "Can we be back in Paris, alone?"

Liam laughed "Day after t'morrow we'll be back home, we'll lock everyone out and walk 'round naked"

I opened the door and Guigsy met me with a huge smile. "Where's your key?"

"Over there" he nodded behind me.

I rolled my eyes and let him in.

"We're meetin' Noel at some pub up the block, you lot comin'?"

Liam got up and nodded. "I could use a drink"

"Guess we'll be there" I nodded.

Guigs turned to leave. "Hey!" I called after him. He turned and I threw him his key. "We aren't letting you back in tonight"

"Might not be comin' back" he winked

I rolled my eyes. "We'll meet you downstairs"

He left and I sighed sitting on the bed. Liam looked at me with a small smile. "We don't 'ave t'go"

I shook my head. "If we don't go we'll never hear the end of it from Noel"

"You care too much 'bout what he thinks" Liam shook his head. "Gotta stop doin' that"

"I don't care what he thinks" I shook my head. "I just don't like hear him bitch"

Liam shrugged. "Just bitch back, I know y' can do that"

I smiled and we both got up heading for the door. Bonehead, Guigsy and Tony were already down in the lobby.

"That cunt already gone?" Liam asked to no one in particular.

"He's been gone since four this afternoon" I reminded him.

"Where's he at?" Liam asked ignoring me.

"Up the street" Bonehead answered.

We left the lobby and walked half a block to some bar which was already packed with people.

Guigsy was the first one to spot Noel, sitting at the table; and he wasn't alone.
