Delinquent

[7] - Arrested?

C h a r l o t t e

"Charlotte, Charlotte. Wake up, we have school," Someone was gently shaking my shoulder.

I opened my eyes slightly, allowing them to adjust to the light. I smiled to myself as I recalled last nights events.
My smile soon turned into a frown as I realised I was wearing just a large t-shirt that was certainly not mine.

"Why am I wearing this shirt? Where's my clothes?" I said to no one in particular.

"Lottie, they're on the couch, calm down." Niall replied, walking out of the en suite.

"Lottie?" I raised an eyebrow, propping my hands up on my hips.

"My new nickname for you, duh." He said sassily.

"Ok then, where's my purse?" I asked, rolling my eyes at him.

He pointed to the corner of the room, and my large brown purse was sitting in the corner.

I jumped off the bed, and made a beeline towards my purse.

Kneeling down and unzipping it, I checked and made sure my jeans and t-shirt was still inside.

I breathed a sigh of relief, pulling the items out of my purse.

"How do you fit those clothes in there?" Niall asked.

"I don't know, I also fit my makeup and stuff in here as well. I always have things like that in here." I replied, grabbing my clothes and bag, going into the bathroom.

"Girls are weird." Niall muttered to himself.

"I heard that!"

I didn't have a ride to school, so Niall drove me since he lived a little ways away from the school and he didn't want me to walk.

I don't know if he remembered the deal at all, but it's all I thought about during the car ride. Why did he even make rules for a stupid little promise to not tell anyone about it?

"Bye Lottie," Niall said, giving my arm a light squeeze.

"Bye Niall, have a good day." I smiled.

As the day went on, I've been getting odd stares and whispers were thrown about. There was no doubt that they were talking about me arriving to school with Niall. 

"Charlotte Elyse!" Meredith said, snapping me out of my tired daze.

"Yes?" I sighed.

"Where did you go Friday night? I came over Saturday to see if you were alright and you weren't there." She said, raising her eyebrows.

"I-uh, I was at the hospital with Niall and then Liam ditched me and made me take care of Niall." I said and she squealed loudly.

The boys groaned, it was only us four because Mia was at her older brother's wedding.

"Can you shut up with all the squealing please." Jonah said resting his head on the lunch table.

"Don't be so grumpy because Mia isn't here." Meredith laughed at him then turned to me.

"Give me all the details. Now." She smiled at me, resting her elbows in the table and her chin on the palms of her hands.
