The One Direction Infection (A One Direction and zombie fanfiction) COMPLETED

Chapter 8

Courtney

            I groan and rub my eyes as I drag myself out of my bed. I toss on a grey tee and a pair of dark-washed skinny jeans, pulling my curls in a pony. A pair of TOMS onto my feet and throw a pair of red suspenders on, just for Louis’ entertainment. I bounce out of my room and down the stairs, to see Louis, Harry, Niall, Ivy, and Josh crowded around the Xbox. Lou Niall, and Josh are playing while Harry and Ivy are off in the corner flirting. I roll my eyes and stomp my feet on the floor to get their attention. All eyes were trained on me. 

            “Okay, now that everyone is quiet, what the heck is going on in here?” I say, my voice rising to a shout by the end of it.

            “Are you really wearing suspenders Court? That’s my thing! Besides, they look better on me anyways!” Louis pouts. Josh walks up behind me and pulls my suspenders back, releasing them gently to snap against my back.

            “ I think you look cute in em’!” he retorts, causing heat to spread to my cheeks.

            “You didn’t answer my question! What’s the problem?” I demand.

            “Louis’ cheating!” Niall shrieks out, jumping up and down on the couch.

           

            “Am not!”

            “Are so!”

            “Am not!”

            “Are so!”

            “EVERYBODY SHUT UP!” I say at my maximum volume. All heads snap my way, and almost every face has a mix of shock and confusion on them. “Yea, Courtney found her ‘Big Girl’ voice didn’t she?” I say with a smirk.

            “Now, Louis, hand me your controller and ill take over for a while.”

            “I don’t wanna!” he shouts, a pout developing on his face.

I hold out my hand with a stern look on my face, and he plops his controller before plunking his hind end onto the hard wood floor.

            “So, boys, what are we playing?” I ask, peering at the screen.

            “Well, we were playing Call of Duty, but I don’t think you could handle it.” Niall says, shaking his head slowly.

Well, one thing he doesn’t know about me is that me and Dru spent a whole summer mastering that game, so both of us were practically pros.

           

            “Oh, I’m pretty sure I can handle it!” I say with a smug look on my face.

            “If you say so…” Niall says teasingly.
