Chapter 13: Does The Dude Know?

Chapter 13: Does The Dude Know?

Right after we finished our breakfast, we all filed into the living room to watch some telly. 'Finding Nemo' was on.

I made sure to keep my distance with Niall as I was going to text Alex more about the picture and we wouldn't want Niall to see it, now would we?

To: Alex Bitch :) -Does the dude know?

I type in, all while eyeing the brunette standing in the doorway. Alex catches my eye and smirks, heading for the free space beside Niall. Niall smiles politely when he sees Alex and they both have small talk from what I could tell.

There was this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. I wanted to shake it off right away. It felt so wrong and foreign, I might grimace at it or something.

Am I jealous?

"Jealous of what, love?" Louis, asks smiling curiously. Did I just say that out loud? Oh my God Anthea you have got to stop doing that!

"Yes Anthea, you should stop doing that." Louis laughs and I scratch the nape of my neck. Then, I direct my attention back to my phone.

From: Alex Bitch :) -Only one way to find out ;)

"NO!" I accidentally shout, making everyone's eyes turn to look at me. Different expressions plastered on each of their faces. "Something the matter Anthea?" Niall asks, looking worried. "No, no! Everything's fine! I'm perfectly okay!" I say a bit too quickly. Niall looks hesitant but lets it drop and sighs, smiling gently.

"As long as you're sure."

I nod my head and smile in reassurance. Then everybody resumes what they are doing. I look in Alex's direction and she sends a smirk my way. It made me wanna hug her.

With a rope.

And pat her head repeatedly.

With a chair.

Yeah, I admit, sometimes, I have anger issues.

I glared at her for a good forty seconds and she just laughs.

To: Alex Bitch :) -Don't you fucking dare.

I hear Alex laugh and I look up. She holds both her hands up in the air and mouths, "I give up" whilst I release a sigh of relief.

That was too close!

I let my body relax and I collapse completely against the chair, laying my palm on my forehead. I haven't been to work lately. My boss might fire me because of my absenteeism. I hope not though, I need this job.

It's settled then, tomorrow I go back to working.

But for today I think I might go to the mall and splash out. That would be a dog's bollocks if I had the money. I might need a kip though. Look at me, I just woke up and I need to take a kip.

Since I am sleepy, I stand up and go inside the kitchen. I sit on one of the stools and pour myself a cuppa, sipping it slowly. I lay my phone on the kitchen island and mindlessly open my Instagram and scroll through it. I wasn't very popular. I had at least one hundred followers.

To update, I take a picture of my tea and post it on Instagram (white girl mode: on) see what I did there? No? Okay then.

After I finish uploading the picture, I scroll through my feed again. Liking some pictures and commenting too. When there was nothing that interested me anymore, I sighed and locked my phone, staring at the clock for no reason. What can I do? I was bored out of my mind.

My thoughts wander to Niall and that picture. Only one question haunted me for the most part:

Does the dude know?
