In My Deceiving Heels [2] OLD VERSION

Chapter Five

The next morning I woke up with a splitting headache. I rolled onto my back and pried my eyes open, letting the sunlight that spilled into the foreign bedroom light up my surroundings.

I sat up groggily, holding the soft covers to my naked body. I gingerly ran a hand through my hair. The events from last night were a bit of a blur to me.

There was some movement next to me. I looked over at the covers as they rose and fell rhythmically. I saw a muscular leg sticking out from under the covers. I let out a light chuckle. Whoever was there was out like a light. I decided not to wake him up, instead I made my way out of the bed, picking up a white button-up shirt that was lying next to the bed. I put it on and immediately found that it was too big.

I found the bathroom and thought a shower would be refreshing. The tiles were cold against my bare feet. I left the shirt on the bathroom counter and stepped into the shower. I turned on the hot water and let it cascade down my stiff body.

I found some body wash on the rack in the shower, I rolled my eyes looking at the scent, Ocean Fresh, that's so typical. I took some shampoo and washed my hair with the pine scent.

I massaged my scalp, letting the water from the showerhead almost wash away my hangover. When my shower was done I definitely felt more refreshed and less hungover which I was so grateful for. I slid the shower door open and stepped out, the tiles beneath my feet feeling colder than before. As I slid the door closed I heard the bathroom door open.

I turned around expecting to see Ryan but instead I was face to face with a stark naked Mason.

"Dude!" I exclaimed. His blue eyes widened at lightning speed.

"Dude!" he exclaimed reaching for a towel to wrap around his waist.

After he had covered himself I realised that I was still naked. I tried to quickly get a towel but my sudden and brisk movement paired with my wet feet and the wet tiles left me with my legs slipping out from underneath me, having me land on the cold floor on my bare butt. I landed with a smack.

Mason looked a little panicked and came to my aid. "Dude!" I whimpered. He rolled his eyes and handed me a nearby towel. I wrapped it around myself and he helped me to my feet. "What are you doing here? Naked!" I asked him. He stepped back.

"I live here! What are you doing-" he stopped talking and his face drained of all colour. "You slept here." He said with realisation. I nodded and then a whole flood of images came to me. The club, the drinking, the dancing and then me kissing Mason and then me leaving with Mason and then me and Mason- "Kylie!" Mason snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Please tell me the images that just came to me were me being a perv and having a very...explicit dream about you and that they're not actually memories." I said quickly, flustered.

"What do you remember?" he asked cautiously. I thought for a quick second.

"I remember taking body shots at Red and then leaving the club with you and then we came here." I was speaking cautiously.

"Uhm... that's it?" he asked scratching the back of his neck. "We don't do anything else?"

I purse my lips. "We were kissing and then we came to your room and then..." I paused, he had smirk playing on his lips. "You get the idea." I hissed.

"It's okay to say we slept together." Mason teased. I punched his arm.

"This isn't funny!" I complained. "It's so bad." I sighed.

"It was so bad?" Mason asked with a frown.

"What? No, it wasn't bad, it was kinda amazing." I admitted, feeling my face heat up. "I meant this whole situation is so bad."

Mason looked like he wasn't getting what I was trying to tell him.

"Connor." He sighed. I nodded. "He'd kill me if he found out." Mason added.

"He wouldn't just kill you, he'd skin you alive, break your knees and cut off your-"

"Okay! Holy crap, I get the idea!" Mason stopped me. He ran a hand through his dark hair.

"Sorry." I said softly. "I'm just trying to say-"

"I know." He huffed. "I know you're off limits, Connor made sure I knew that a long time ago." He sighed.

"What?" I asked.

"Yeah, when you were like a freshman he made me promise to keep my distance." Mason muttered.

"Why?"

Mason chuckled. "Kye, I wasn't exactly a nice guy back then." he said. He was the only person in the world who found it necessary to take my already short name and shorten it some more. I didn't mind though, it was his thing.

"You were nice to me." I shrugged. He cocked his head to the side. "Okay, nice-ish." I admitted.

"I wasn't nice to any girl okay, I was...what's a nice word for it?" he asked me. I shrugged.

"A man-whore?" I said quickly. He glared at me. "Promiscuous." I suggested with a shrug.

"Yeah, that, that's one way of putting it." he said before letting out a heavy sigh. "Look, your brother had every right to tell me not to get involved with you because, honestly, every girl I got involved with back then got hurt."

"But that was back then. You've changed." I said. Mason gave me a small smile.

"Maybe but I don't wanna break my promise to your brother again so this-" he gestured to me and him, "This has to be one time, okay?" he said. I kept quiet and looked down. "Okay?" he repeated.

"Okay!" I said, frustrated. "Like as in one time excluding last night or..." I faded off when he deadpanned. "Right, sorry." I added.

"And nobody knows, especially your brother." he warned.

"Yeah, nobody except everybody who saw us leaving the club."

"Kylie." Mason huffed.

"Okay! I already said it last night, whatever happened doesn't get back to my brother."

Mason nodded. "Okay...okay, so..." he thought for a while. "Are you gonna shower?" he asked.

"I just did." I said dryly.

"With me now." he said with a smirk. I glared at him. His blue eyes filled with playfulness. I pushed past him.

"You're such a guy!" I huffed. I rolled my eyes.
