Chapter 4
Something definitely changed between Conor and I after that night at my house but changed for the better. We literally could not keep our hands off each other, and although this proved problematic in rehearsals it made everything so exciting! Conor had released his first single and shot to fame in the UK which meant we needed to be even more secretive than before. Can't say no went straight in at number two and we were having a party at the night club to celebrate the success of the record. I swung my legs off my bed and walked towards my wardrobe about to rifle through my clothes when the doorbell rang. I wrapped up in my dressing gown and ran downstairs praying that it wasn't Conor because I had my hair all up in rollers and that would be mortifying. Luckily for me it was just a delivery, all be it one I wasn't expecting. I thanked the man and turned into the living room to open the package, inside the box was a note saying 'wear this tonight, see you later babe x' I unwrapped the tissue paper and held up the dress inside. It was the most stunning thing i'd seen in ages; a black body-con dress completely covered in jewels and studs. I slipped it on over my new underwear and removed my rollers laetting my hair tumble down past my shoulders, I put on my strappy gold heels and heading out of the door to the waiting cab.
When I arrived at the club everything was mental, there were paps everywhere which suggested to me Conor hadn't even arrived yet. Jonny appeared next to me to help me into the club, as soon as I was fully out of the car the paps were all over me.
"Hey who are you with?"
"Are you a friend of Conor's?"
"Are you dating Conor?"
My god it was endless. Thankfully Dave appeared at my side and used his loud booming voice to manage the paps. "Hey guys can you move back a bit please, I'd rather you didn't scare off the guests." he laughed. "Conor will be arriving soon but will only be answering questions when inside the club. As to this stunning young lady, this is Belle who is a member of Conor's musical team and no they are not dating. Thanks everyone." Dave patted my shoulder and grinned, ohhh how little he knew!
Once inside the club, I headed over to get a drink a then leant against the bar and waited for Conor. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned around to see Conors friend Anth.
"Hey Belle...WOW you look amazing! New dress?" he asked twirling me round. I giggled and gently pushed him away.
"ooh shush you!" I laughed "yes it is new thank you" There was a commotion which stopped me and I turned to see Conor and Jack walking through the door. Dave stopped and ran over to the mike, "Ladies and Gentlemen our guest of honour is here so lets get this party started!"
As the evening passed, Conor performed and got more and more drunk, he kept winking at me suggestively, and I'm not guna lie...I was so turned on! About 1am Conor came over to where I was standing at the bar.
'Conor not too close remember...we are a secret' I reminded
He lent over and whispered in my ear. 'You're my little secret baby and you look so frickin fit tonight...the things I'm going to do to you later. At first I was happy then I realised how drunk and leery he was being and was immediately pissed off.
'Fuck sake Conor grow up. I'm not a piece of meat you can just shag when you feel like it' I pushed him away
He pulled puppy dog eyes at me 'But baby I want you please' he begged
'I want you too but not like this! I want you to remember it for crying out loud!' I stormed off and went over to Dave to tell him I wasn't feeling well and was leaving before going over to Jonny and asking him to call me a cab. I got into my apartment and slumped down against the door, this was exactly what I did not want to happen, this thing with me and Conor was just supposed to be a bit of fun but the reason I turned him down was I realised tonight that I am falling for him big time! I needed to decide whether to hide my true feelings and carry on seeing him, or tell him how I felt and lose him.
*Three Days Later*
I had been playing the sick card for three days and Dave was fairly accepting of it because I was so hard working but I knew he wanted me back tomorrow so I could go on Conor's radio tour with him. I didn't know if I could though, but part of me knew that by staying on with Conor I still had good chances for myself in the business, plus I just could not stop thinking about him.
I was curled up on the sofa in my trackies with my hair piled up on the top of my head, watching music videos and writing songs in my head when my apartment bell buzzed. Shit I quickly wiped under my eyes ruffled my hair a bit and ran to the door. I opened it and there was Conor, he turned around and was holding a bunch of roses (my favourite) and a box of chocolates. I looked at him and just shrugged.
'Belle' he sighed 'Oh god I'm so sorry I was so so drunk and I know it isn't an excuse but oh god I don't know what came over me. I mean of course I don't think of you as a piece of meat I mean you're stunning, funny kind and I love you and I didn't want to hurt you I'm sorry' he spurted out.
My head shot up 'Say that last bit again Conor' i said, it definitely needed repeating.
'I'm sorry?' he looked at me quizzically.
No before that you said... you said'
'I said I love you' he smiled
'And do you mean that?' I asked barely able to contain myself
'I do, Oh god I do but Belle we still can't tell anyone not yet but please don't think that means I don't want to! I've been falling for you for ages please just tell me you feel the same.
I grabbed his face in my hand and pulled him through the door kissing him with so much passion I didn't even know I had. He dropped the flowers and the chocolates to wind his arms around me and we broke away and laughed. I looked right into his eyes 'Yes Conor' I replied 'I do love you'. With that he scooped me up and carried me through to my room, never once looking away from me.
