Something Gained

Chapter Thirty-Three

I looked at my watch and realised we should be leaving soon. Daniel was in the bathroom, I got my dress out and stepped into it and tied up my shoes. I pulled out my phone.
"What are you wearing?" Hannah text me
"I've got a dress on and heels. What about you?" I replied
"Yes me to!! We're not in until the afternoon, shall we get trashed in Amsterdam?" I giggled at her. I think this is probably the first time I've probably spoken to another girl and hung out in ages and it felt good
"Yesssss! Let's go!" I replied. There was a knock on the door
"Dan are you ready?" He come out the bathroom and was fully dressed and ready. He wolf whistled and I shook my head and opened the door to Lando.
"Erm okay, someone's out out" Lando said. I rolled my eyes at him and let him in
"Erm I'm gonna go out after dinner with Hannah?" I said. Daniel turned around and looked at me
"Okay"
"Girls night out woooo" Lando yelled. I laughed at him
"Is that okay?" I asked Daniel
"You're asking me? Don't ask. Just go" he said. I don't know why but I thought he might not want me to. But I was glad he was fine, "just make sure you come back to me" I nodded and kissed him
"Ew ew ew" Lando remarked. I shoved him and then grabbed my bag and walked towards the door with the guys. We all met downstairs and walked down the street to the restaurant we would be eating at. I walked with my arm linked with Daniel's and there was cameras going crazy. I walked into the restaurant and Hannah was the first one I saw
"Oh yes yes yes" she said, she took my arm from Daniel's and we walked to the table together. "You look gorgeous. We're going to have so much fun"

We sat through dinner, Daniel sat opposite me at the table and Hannah next to me. He kept playing footsies under the table and it was making me laugh. Zak stood up to do his speech about how we were gonna kill it again this weekend, which we were, and we all had a good dinner.
We left the restaurant and Hannah and I departed from everyone else and carried on walking down to the Main Street. My phone buzzed and I took it out of my bag.

Have fun, but not too much without me. Be safe, I love you xx

I smiled at the text from Daniel and replied and carried on walking with Hannah.
"Okay you're smiling like a Cheshire Cat, you have to tell me all about you and Daniel. You two honestly suit so well"
"Ugh he just makes me so giddy and happy, I feel so safe with him all the time"
"He's a great guy, always smiling"
"He is! What about Liam? Any update?" I asked her
"No. He talks to me all the time and flirts but he still hasn't asked me out on a date" we arrived at a bar and went inside
"So take the lead, you ask him out?" I suggested
"I can't possibly do that!"
"Get a few drinks down you and I guarantee you can" I said laughing. We got ourselves some drinks and sat down at a table
"I can't. Who asked who out with you and Daniel?" She asked
"Well, it sort of didn't happen like that. We slept together first" I said laughing
"what?! That's hilarious. When was that?" she replied
"Well we went for a walk so I could get to know him as obviously this was the first time working with him. And we had a moment but we stopped it and then the next day we had another moment and got carried away and yeah.. We had sex. In Bahrain" I said
"On the first weekend" she was in shock and I laugh
"Yeah I work quick apparently" I said laughing
"Well honey, you must of done something right because 6 months later you're basically together and happy" she said, she held up her glass to cheers me and I did the same, "is it good?"
"Is what good?"
"The sex obviously, I can imagine Mr Ricciardo is a fireball" I nearly spat out my drink and she laughed
"A fireball? That's the funniest thing I've ever heard"
"So that's a yes or no?"
"Oh it's definitely good" I said smirking

We spent the night drinking and dancing, we made friends with some people and they kept buying us drinks and shots, and we got so carried away we ended up sitting on the pavement eating a McDonald's. I was absolutely trashed, I could barely speak.
"Let me call us a taxi or something, otherwise we will never make it back" I said laughing. I took my phone out and realised it was 4am already. "Oh wait, I don't know any numbers"
"Oh Jesus, shall we ask someone" this wasn't good. How did we not know how to get back. "Erm excuse me?"
"Hannah they speak Dutch" I said, but she wasn't listening. She got up and wandered off, I followed her. I don't think getting split was going to solve this any quicker. Thankfully we managed to get a number and I called and managed to get us a taxi. We were so drunk. We tried to be quiet going back to the hotel. Hannah was on the floor below me so she got out first

"Thank you for a great night" she said. I laughed and we said our goodbyes, the lift went up one more floor and I got out and wandered down the corridor. I'm sure the hallway wasn't this long before. I reached my room, and slipped the keycard into the lock and managed to get the door open. I tried desperately to be quiet but apparently I wasn't because I was getting some water I heard Daniel.
"Alex?" He mumbled
"It's okay, go back to sleep" I didn't even know if my words were proper words. I heard him get up and come over. I turned around and saw a very sleepy Daniel standing in front of me.
"Oh dear, you're drunk"
"Nope" I said, he laughed.
"Come on, let's get you to bed"
"I want some water"
"I'll get you water, after I put you to bed" he lifted me up and carried me to the bed, he pulled my dress off and took my shoes off and laid me down, and then disappeared, he come back with some water and put it on the table.
"Daniel, I'm so in love with you, you're the sexist man in the whole world" I heard him chuckle.
"Come on, sleep"
"Have sex with me" I said
"I think you're too drunk for that, sleep" he said again. I huffed
"Come on I'll give you a cuddle" Daniel said, I smiled and laid down and he got into bed next to me and wrapped his arms round me. I instantly went to sleep.
