Forbidden love

" I will never mind if you sleeping on me"

Few days later

09.02.2023.
We are on our way to Vienna. I sit apart from the rest of the club. Most of them are on the lower floor of the bus, while the rest are in the front. Madison, my best friend from the club, Maria and I are sitting separately with the Aura club. I have no problem sitting with them since we became friends at the party. Jacob was throwing stupid tricks the whole way. He was joined by Mattheo and Oliver.

We have been traveling for about 3 hours and we stopped for our first break. I get off the bus already stiff. I didn't sleep even though it's very early. I enter the gas station to go to the toilet and take a coffee on the way. On the way out, I see William spreading his arms and I go into his arms. We stood like that for a while. I really like hugs it calms me down and makes me feel more secure. He gently rubs my back and smells my hair.

What's up Katie?" We moved away, but he still hugged me with one arm

"Nothing special, what about you?"

"Well, I came out to stretch a bit. Why don't you sit down with us?"

"There was no room when I entered. So then I went upstairs, but there was no room among ours either, so I ended up with my friends from Aura."

"Why didn't you tell me right away. I'll tell someone to move so you can go down." I am surprised by this sentence.

"There's no need. I'm sure it's fun even worse. Jacob is really interesting, I'm laughing the whole time."
I notice how his jaw tightens. He looks for someone, and when I see where his eyes are directed, I understand that he is looking at Jacob. Then he noticed us and gave me a smile and a wink. My cheeks are flushed. I think I like it. Then I feel William take his hands off me.

"I'm going to the bus," he says coldly.

"Okay. I'll see you in latt...er" I say more to myself because he has already rushed inside. He's acting really weird. Soon we all get inside and the journey continues. Somehow I managed to fall asleep.

"Waking up the sleeper" I feel a slight jolt.

"What happens?" I asked sleepily. It takes me a moment to realize where I am.

"We're at the border. We all have to get out to hand in our passports. I'm sorry I just had to wake you up. You're so cute when you're sleeping."

I feel myself blushing again

"Yes I sure am cute. My mouth was probably open and my head in an unnatural position." He laughed at that.

"Where is my sister? Are you looking after her?" I asked nervously

"Oh she's already out. Come on hurry everyone's almost out."

I get up slowly and realize that the bus is already empty. Jacob got off the bus first and I immediately followed him. However, as I was going down the last step, I tripped. I immediately feel arms around me and realize it's Jacob.

"Thank you" I thought I was going to die here.

"Are you okay? You didn't hurt yourself?"

"I'm fine. It's just that my blood pressure is probably low from sleeping."

"Come on, sleepy, let's go to passport control." While we were moving, William was watching us the whole time.

"Drink!" Someone is holding a bottle of water in front of my face. I raise my head and realize it's William.

"Thank you "

"Jason's going upstairs. He and Maria will be sitting together. You're going downstairs!"

"There's really no need. Besides, I can't move things right now, I'm settled in just fine."

"Your things have already been moved."
I looked at him in surprise. What right does he have to touch my things? This pissed me off. I opened my mouth to object but he cut me off

"Go inside!" I shudder at the coldness in his voice. We go inside and I realize I'm sitting with him

"We sit together?" I asked nervously.

"Yes. Is that a problem?"

"No this one is okay. Can I go to the window?"

"Of course."
Make way for me to go first. I looked out the window the rest of the way. William would occasionally ask me something and I would give a short answer.

I don't understand why I'm sitting here with him now. Of all people he sits with me. He could put things anywhere for me. He is behaving very strangely. I don't like him being here. They all hang out and I feel like an extra. That's why I pretend to sleep. At the same time, I want to avoid talking to them, but at the same time I also want to sleep. However, this is impossible because they do not stop with the story. Somehow I manage to fall asleep in the end.

"Heart wakes up." I hear a deep voice in my ear. I open my eyes and feel that I am lying on something hard. I soon realized that it was William's shoulder.

"Sorry" I raised my head quickly

"What are you apologizing to me for?"

"I was lying on your shoulder. Maybe you were uncomfortable."

"I will never mind you sleeping on me. After all, it suited me to smell your hair." I don't know what to say to this, so I decide to change the subject.

"Are we there yet."

"Oh yes, we'll be there in a few minutes. Did you get some sleep?"

"Mmmm really. I really enjoyed this nap."

"You see it's better that I brought you here. You couldn't sleep worse than those morons."

"Don't be like that. I had fun up there. Besides, why did you bring me here in the first place? Why did you make me sit with you?"

"Wait you don't like this. You should have said it right away. It wouldn't be a problem if I put things back up when you find it more interesting there anyway." Anger erupts from his voice

"I didn't mean it that way. Don't be mad."

"I know very well what you were thinking. There's no need to make excuses. It's okay. On the way back, sit where you want."

"William..."

"I don't want to talk about it anymore."
He turned and engaged in a conversation with the others as if we had never spoken before. Soon the bus stopped and I picked up my things. I waited for William to get up so I could go out.

"Wait for me outside," he said without looking at me. I just nodded and left. Why does he want me to wait for him outside?

"What is your suitcase." He was pointing to a pile of luggage. I pulled him out of the pile and he accepted him immediately. When entering the hotel, we were given room numbers. All were double rooms. I'm with  Madison in room. Thank God we could choose couples for the rooms. Our room was number 309 and was on the top floor. The hotel did not have an elevator, so we had to climb the stairs, which were too narrow. We finally arrived and I unlocked the door.

The room was big enough for the two of us. Immediately to the right was a door behind which was the bathroom, and to the right were 2 beds spread out with a bedside table. We also had a closet and a large mirror, which came in handy for preparing our hairstyles for the performance. William dropped my suitcase at the front door.

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome. If you need anything, my room is right across the street."
He pointed to the opposite door with his hand.

"Thank you Will. We'll keep that in mind."

Madison called from the room. He smiled and left. I put the suitcase in and closed the door, taking one more look at him.

I threw myself on the bed and called my parents. Then I unpacked and decided to take a shower before dinner. After that, we should have a technical rehearsal all together, and the next day we have a general rehearsal in the hall where the concert is held.
All in all, it's going to be a busy weekend.
