Not In Love With Liam

20~ Mind over Matter

⚓NOAH OQUAYE⚓

"Morning!"

Day two on ward 9.

Quel stood towering over me, beaming.
I groaned and lifted the sheets over my head, trying to block the light.

"You still mad at me?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Are you gonna wake up?"
"No."
"Noah?"

I took the sheets off my head.

"What?"
"Someone wants to see you. And I swear it's not Liam this time."
"Better not be." I smirked.

I hopped off my bed, my mind heavy with sleep. "I'm gonna go sort myself out."
"Alright. Just tell me when I can send them in."
"Yeah, okay."

I walked off to the bathroom.

After getting dressed and wrapping my hair into a bun, I went to the front desk to tell Quel I was ready. When I got there, my guest was seated in reception, listening to music.

"Hey!" He smiled.
I was pleasantly surprised to see Brandon.
"Hi Brandon! What are you doing here?"
He stood up to hug me.
"Heard you were here and I decided I owed you a visit." He continued to smile his gorgeous, carefree smile.
"Well thanks for coming. Who told you?"
"Your instagram. All the 'get well soon' comments sort of gave it away."
I chuckled lightly.
"But anyway Noah, I was wondering if I could speak to you about something."
"

Yeah, go ahead," We strolled to my room. "What's up?"
"Okay so you know when you came away with me, and I told you about that magazine shoot I had in Cancun this August?"
"Oh yeah. The one for Hello Magazine?"
"That's the one. Well bacically, I was given four extra tickets, you know, for my friends that I want to bring along with me."
"Yeah.." I began to beam with excitement.
"Well I was wondering if you could sit my dog for me while my friends and I went?"

I froze.

"What?"
"I'm only joking," he laughed. "The woman I was speaking to earlier, Quel I think. Quel? Raquel?"
"Either."
"Oh. Well she told me you would be good to go by the end of the week, so what I was really wondering was if you'd like to come with me to Cancun?"
"Oh my gosh, yes!" I squealed.
"Yeah?"
"Yeah!" I hugged him again.

This was perfect! Summer was just around the corner and I'd be getting away to Mexico!!

Well if my parents let me.
This time, I was in their custody, so I'd have to ask.

"Great! I'll stop by on Thursday if that's okay, to drop you your ticket. I'll be in Northampton for the rest of the week so.."
"Yeah it's fine."
"Cool, everything else is sorted, so just have your bags packed up for the eighteenth."
"Eighteenth of August?"
"Yup."
"I'm so excited!"
"Same, I've never actually been to Cancun. Apparently it's beautiful, so you'll fit in."

I panicked.
What the fuck??

Don't be an awkward little shit Noah say something....

"Haha. Thanks. I..guess"

Well that wasn't awkward at all... stupid hoe.

He smiled nervously at me. "So how are your friends?"
"They're all okay. They come here every so often."
"And your boyfriend?"
