"Bye!" I called to my mom and Jake, who were getting in their cab. They waved and drove off. I turned around and grabbed my bag before locking the doors and walking over to their house.
"Hey!" JJ says meeting me at the door and taking my bag from me. I follow him up the stairs and into his room. Cal is laying on his air mattress.
"You know, JJ, I can sleep on the air mattress and you can have your bed." I offered him, I mean, its the least I could do.
"No way. Now if you hadn't noticed, all the other guys are gone. They're Christmas shopping. Now me and Cal are going to. Its 5 now, so we'll be back in a few hours but the others could get home any time. You can just unpack, and help yourself to anything in the fridge." He tells me.
"Alright, but I actually might go out." I inform them.
"Okay. I'll see you later then." JJ says.
Once they leave I stick around for a while, just looking at things around his room. Its 6:30 when I leave.
I drive into central London and sit on a bench there. I watch the people walk by, thinking about everything that's happening in my life. When I come back to reality I realized its almost 11 pm. I have texts from all of the guys and a few missed calls. I decide to call Tobi because he seems to be the most chill.
"Hello? Holly? Are you alright? Where are you?" He asks frantically. I sigh, I guess he's not the most chill. I hear Jj and Simon in the back both asking about me. "Holly? I'm putting you on speaker by the way." He says.
"Hi, yes I'm alright, I just lost track of time." I say.
"Where are you? When will you be back?" Simon asks.
"I'm in London. I'll leave now and be back in about an hour." I state.
"An hour? It doesn't take that long." Josh says.
"I know. I'm going to order pizza. What kind do you guys want?" I ask trying to calm them down.
"Pepperoni." They agree.
"Okay 3 pepperoni pizzas." I say and hang up.
I get back and carry the pizzas inside, I feel the gush of warm air as I open the front door. Simon comes out of the kitchen first followed by the other guys. They take the pizza and walk to the living room while Simon stays.
"Don't scare me like that. I thought you got raped, or kidnapped, or beaten up, or lost!" He scolds me.
"Sorry. It won't happen again." I say.
"Okay, is your stuff in the guest room yet?" He asks.
"No, I'm staying in JJ's room." I tell him. His fist clench, turning his knuckles white. "He's staying on an air mattress, so is Cal. I get to sleep in his bed." I tell him, trying to calm him down.
"You could've stayed in my room." He mutters.
"Well too late." I say with a smile. I put my arms around him and stand on my tippy toes, placing a kiss on his cheek, then I walk to the kitchen.
I get in bed around 1 am. I pull the blanket up to my neck and stare at JJ who's sitting in his computer chair, editing. He turns around and I grin at him.
"You should get some rest." JJ tells me.
"You should too, but that's not stopping you." I argue. "I think I'm going to go see what Simon's doing." I say and get out of bed. I walk up the stairs. I enter Simons room, quietly. He's editing too. I walk up behind him and wrap my arms around his neck and place my head on his shoulder.
"Hey Hol, you should be asleep" He states.
"You should too." I respond.
"It's different for me." He says quickly.
"How so?" I stall.
"I'm used to it." He states confidently after thinking about it for a second.
"Simon. Being friends with you and the sidemen, I'm used to being up late." I say. He rolls his eyes at me and gets up out of his computer chair. He snakes his hands around my waist and kisses me.
"Now, will you go to bed? I don't want you to be tired. Or get sick since you were out in the cold tonight." He says.
"You baby me too much." I tell him.
"What will it take for me to get you to sleep?" He asks.
"Lets talk for a while, I promise I'll go down to bed after." I say.
"Alright, lets play 21 questions." He offers. I nod. "Okay I'll go first. Why didn't you tell me about your depression and your past?" He asks me. I feel sick from nervousness.
"I thought you wouldn't want to deal with it and wouldn't like me." I say truthfully.
"Well I know about it and still like you. Your turn." He says.
"Have you talked to Veronica since the incident?" I ask, his smile fades.
"No. She texted me, but I didn't respond." He says. I feel a surge of happiness through my body but I contain myself. "Have you seriously considered getting back together with me?" He asks.
"Everyday." I admit. "How many girls have you had sex with?" I question.
"5. How many guys have you had sex with?" He asks.
"None." I say sheepishly.
"Really?" He asks surprised.
"Yeah." I blush, now extremely embarrassed.
"Its not a bad thing." He assures me.
We continue you to talk.
"How come you didn't go home for Christmas?" I ask him.
"This is my home." He says quickly. I close my eyes and lean against the wall behind his bed. "I'm taking you downstairs." He says and I feel him pick me up and I wrap my arms around his neck. I nestle my face into his chest, inhaling his scent. It smelled so comfortable, and familiar.
Before I know it I feel him put me down on Jj's bed and pull the cover over myself. He kisses me on the cheek and I fall asleep with a huge, stupid smile on my face.
