I took the lift up to my room and let myself fall onto the bed. I kissed Alfie. Alfie, the strange, lip biting guy that I met on the train only this afternoon. I liked him. The only problem was, I wasn't sure how much: how could I possibly be in love with someone I only just met? Okay, we seemed to have a lot in common and he was sweet and comforting and just the typical good guy any girl'd fall for, but other than that... There was no way to explain what it was with him. He was just so... perfect. He was everything Jordan hadn't been. Jordan. I had been telling him I loved him only a month ago, and now I was totally over him. I had been thinking about him on the train and now Alfie was the only boy on my mind. What the bloody hell was going on with me? I simply didn't know. All I knew was that I couldn't be with Alfie as long as it felt like he was a rebound. I wanted him, yes. But I didn't want him only to be comparing him to Jordan all day long, I didn't want that for him. He couldn't be with me now. But maybe, in a couple of months... With that, I fell into a deep, dreamless sleep, partydress still on, that had sneakily crept up on me.

I still stood in front of the hotel Zoe had dissapeared in, my mouth open. What had just happened? I knew what had happened, of course. Zoe had put her soft lips onto mine and it had felt amazing. But what I didn't understand, was that she ran away immediatly after. Had I done something wrong, was I a disgusting kisser? I didn't have a single clue. I only knew that I'd fallen for this girl, and that I didn't want this to be the last time I'd kiss her. I also knew, that me and her were staying in the same hotel. As stalkish as I knew it was, I asked her room number. That's when I found out that we were in the same corridor. I hesitated: would I go and visit her or would that be creepy? Yeah probably would. I asked the receptionist wether she had an alarm ordered and she happily told me she did. 9.00 a.m. to be exact. hmm I could accidentaly pass by when she got out? Yeah, that's what I would do.

The next morning I woke up to the phone ringing. 'Goodmorning Mr. Deyes, you told us to wake you' 'Oh yeah, thanks' I murmeled and I hung up. I felt terrible, going to bed 4 a.m. in the morning and waking up 5 hours later didn't make me a better person. Even though I would've loved to stay in my bed for a little longer, I sleepily walked to the bathroom. I couldn't miss Zoe, and I wanted to look good for her.

When I came out of the shower, it occurred to me that girls had the ability of taking hours to get dressed and done. I had absolutely no clue how long Zoe was to take. It would be impossible for me to time my leaving exactly right. Just then, as quick as the first thought came in, a second and third followed: 2) I could just watch one of Zoes tutorial videos about her daily routine for science, 3) I could just sit down in the lobby and pretend the connection's better there! So after I finished grooming myself, I watched Zoes (pretty long) video, checked the clock, and went downstairs to the hotel lobby.

After being wake-up called, as I like to call it, I got up pretty quickly, jumping under the luxurious hotel shower. I replayed the events of the past evening in my mind, while singing out loud to the song that had been on my mind the minute I woke up: millionaires. As I was literally singing my heart out, thinking of Alfie and blow drying my hair, my phone buzzed. The first person I hoped to see appear on my screen was Alfie, so I was slightly let down as I saw Louise's name pop up. Then it occurred to me that I didn't have Alfies number... I cursed to myself. Then I picked up the phone. "Hello?" I asked, even though I knew it was my chummy. "CHUMMY!" Was the enthusiastic response on the other side of the line "Hey Chum! Did you enjoy yourself after I left last night?" I asked her jokingly. "as a matter of fact, yes I did. But that's not why I called you. Have you spend the night with Mr Pointlessblog Alfie Deyes?!" She was practically screaming into my ear right now. I sighed. "no Louise,I didn't. We just talked a lot and then we took our tubes home". I knew Louise wouldn't want to believe me, but I was glad that she tried. "hmm, okay then chummy," she said. "it's a Shane though. You two would look cute together" I let her words take their time to wander my mind. Before I had made enough sense to formulate an answer though, she'd hung up on me.

How did she even know we'd been hanging out all night? How did she guess something happened between us? It was true though: I kissed him and that was only the cherry on top of a amazing night, which I owed to him. I thought we would be pretty cute together indeed. But then again, even if we'd be disgusting, I still wouldn't mind to be with him.
