A Life We Never Expected

Chapter 10

*Katie's POV*

As she walked towards me with her suitcase, all I could do was stare. I know I shouldn't, and I know I just met her, but oh my gosh she is beautiful. Caitlin grabbed her bags from her and walked towards me, she reached me a good minute before Amelia did.

"Katie. Don't. She's scared, she's nervous. Don't do anything, she said she won't either so just be careful. Don't mess this up." Caitlin sternly told me.

I, of course, wasn't going to do anything tonight; I mean, it would take so much power in me to stop but I can compose myself. I can stop myself.

As Amelia walked closer to me, she looked me up and down, I didn't know if she meant to, but she drove me wild with that look. I walked her over to the passenger side of my car and opened it up, before looking at her once more and gestured to get in. I closed the door gently before going to speak to my best friend.

"Hey Caits! I missed you so much" I said as I hugged her.

"I missed you too Katie; however, I will speak to you in detail tomorrow because I know Amelia's tired and me and Nat have got to get home and Steph has got to find her fiancé."

I nodded in response.

"Katie, be careful please."

"I will love, I will." I said as Caitlin walked away.

I opened the driver's side door and got in. I spoke to Amelia as I pulled out of the car park, not daring to look at her as I didn't want to get distracted.

"Do you still fancy food, or do you just want to go home?

"I'm not too hungry, I could do with an Oreo mcflurry though" Amelia gently spoke.

"Mcflurry it is."

We drove in silence to McDonalds, I wanted to know what Amelia was thinking. As we pulled up to the drive through, I ordered her an Oreo mcflurry which she stated that she wanted. She passed me her bank card to pay but I declined.

"Katie. Take it. Its my mcflurry, ill pay." she sternly said.

"you're not my boss, my love. I'll pay" I chuckled.

'My love'?!?!?!? Why did I say that oh my gosh I didn't even mean too it just slipped out. 

We then drove home in silence. I have definitely messed this up.

As I unlocked my door, I took Amelia's suitcase upstairs and let her follow me as I showed her to her room which was right next to mine.

"I'll be downstairs if you need me, just come down when you're ready. I need to finish off a few emails and then I'll put on a movie to get you settled yeah?"

Amelia just nodded to me as I closed her door and walked downstairs to my laptop that was sat on my table. I sat down and opened a few emails that I had put off replying to. I made my lunch for tomorrow and suddenly my phone buzzed.

Amelia😊

This is so embarrassing, but I forgot to bring pjys and its obviously too late to go out and buy new clothes... do you possibly have a shirt and shorts I can chuck on for tonight... please. And if not, it's okay ill find something xx

Yes ofc, ill be right up x.

I walked into my room and grabbed a 15 McCabe away shirt from last season and some plain black comfy shorts. I knocked on her door and she opened it with just a towel wrapped around her. I was in awe. I don't know how long I was there, but Amelia quickly knocked me out of my thoughts.

"Do you like what you see?" Amelia confidently spoke.

"Hey that's my line!" I shot back. I gave her my clothes and walked back downstairs, only to be joined a few moments later.

Amelia walked down the stairs with her wet hair in two braids, my shirt and shorts, and oh my gosh did she look beautiful.

(the outfit I gave her) 

"Do you want tea? I can make you one if you like. It's only Yorkshire though, I only drink Yorkshire, I'm sorry" I admitted.

"Me too! Yorkshire tea is the best, and yes please, 1 sugar and milk please, do you want me to do anything for you?" she politely asked.

"Yes. Go find a movie or series to watch, I'll be there in a second."

She nodded and I smiled as I saw the McCabe 15 on her back. I could get used to that. After the tea was made, I walked over to the couch and sat near her, not right next to her but I left a gap.

"So, what are we watching then Amelia?"

"Hmmm, what about YOU?"

"Me?" I asked puzzled.

She laughed at me before replying. "No, you idiot, the show YOU. Have you not seen it?!"

"Ohhh no I haven't, yeah let's watch it."

"You going to come closer so we can actually watch it together?" she spoke as she looked at me on the other end of the couch.

I don't think she meant to but the way her voice was so demanding really gave me butterflies. I moved closer to her, and she wrapped the blanket that was next to my couch, around us. It was now 1am and Amelia was getting tired.

"Do you want to go up to bed? We have a big day tomorrow remember." I softly spoke as she had her head on the side of the couch.

"No no I'm awake, let's keep watching." She spoke while yawning.

"Okay Lia" I whispered under my breath, but Amelia heard and shot her head up.

"Lia?" she smiled.

"I'm sorry it just came out I didn't mean to" I quickly apologized.

"I liked it" Amelia quietly stated as she looked away. She liked it. That's cute.

As the episode was coming to an end, Amelia asked to watch one more and then we could go upstairs. Of course, I said yes, if it means being this close to her. Oh my gosh what is happening to me?

Halfway through the episode, Amelia put her head on my shoulder and quite quickly fell asleep. I finished the episode and turned off the tv. Instead of carrying her upstairs I laid her down on the sofa and wrapped the blanket around her.

Without thinking, I kissed her head and said "goodnight my love" as I moved onto the other sofa. I didn't want to leave her downstairs alone all night and we had to wake up at 8am anyway, so I slept downstairs with her on the other sofa.

I fell asleep with a view of the most gorgeous girl I have ever seen.
