She's Not Afraid

CHAPTER SEVEN: WAKING UP NEXT TO A STRANGER...

CHAPTER SEVEN: WAKING UP NEXT TO A STRANGER…

I shifted my sleeping position to the right side, deciding to sleep a little bit more and just wake up later since I had the most comfortable sleep ever.

That is until I began to notice a faint breathing sound beside me as I felt ‘that’ person’s exhales on my face.

What the..?

I slowly opened my eyes which almost bulged right out from their sockets when I saw a stranger’s sleeping face right before me.

Now I’m wide awake.

Gee, thanks stranger, whoever---

Wait, my eyes started twitching as I realized that this guy was no stranger at all.

I felt my stomach turn as I realized the kind of situation that we were both in… sharing a bed, moreover, sharing the same blanket sheets!

I quickly looked underneath the covers for my clothes and was relieved when I saw that they were still intact from last night.

We both have clothing, that’s a good thing, right?

I never imagined myself waking up next to… Liam Payne one day.

We’re not even close since we’re in the ‘I don’t care about you’ type of relationship.

Now, back to the main question, why are we sleeping together?

Because honestly, I don’t remember anything about approaching this guy last night.

“Hey, why are you staring at my sleeping face like that?” Oh good, he’s finally awake.

“Well, I’m sorry for admiring your incredibly handsome face like some creep that you get to meet in a bar the other night. What happened, exactly? And how did we end up here?” I can’t help but be sarcastic like he always is to me.

I began to sit up, stretching my arms as I scanned the room which looked like a hotel room.

Great, if I come out right outside with this guy, people are going to spread all kinds of rumors about us.

*LIAM’S POV*

What the f*ck?

How did WE end up in a hotel room?

“I can’t remember either but I’m sure that the events from last night will just come rushing back into our heads the minute we’re sober.” I reassured her.

“You drank?” She inquired.

“Only vodka.” Maybe? I’m still not that sure…

“You didn’t try anything with me, did you?” She suddenly got worried.

“What? Like touching your body and stuff like that? I don’t think so, did you?” I returned the question right back to her.

You can never be so sure about a girl’s motives.

“No way! That’s just so… rated R. I’m not that kind of girl, you know?” She got defensive.

“Yeah, yeah, whatever… I’m going to take a shower while you try to remember what happened.” I got up then headed towards the bathroom.

I immediately took off my shirt and my pants once inside, leaving only my boxers on as I rinsed my face with cool water.

Damn, it’s my first time sleeping beside a girl… which honestly shocked the hell out of me right when I saw her big brown eyes gazing into my face from the minute I woke up but covered up the shock by acting all calm and cold anyway.

I need to calm down as soon as possible before she figures me out and only a cold shower would do the trick.

When I opened the shower curtains, I can’t help but let out a shriek which is so not manly of me…

I then dashed outside the bathroom without thinking out of fear.

“What’s wrong?” Cher asked me as she examined the ‘scared’ look on my face.

“There’s… there’s a… there’s a SPOON in the bathtub!” I freaked out.

God, how much I hate spoons!

Who the hell placed that there?!

She arched an eyebrow at me as she scanned her eyes into my body…

Sh*t! I forgot that I only had my boxers on.

“You can shower first, I changed my mind.” I tried to cover my bare chest using my hands rather awkwardly.

I probably look like a total sissy to her by now.

Whoever planned all of this will surely pay!

“Room service!” Someone shouted from outside our door.

“I’ll get it.” Cher rushed to open it which didn’t get me enough time to hide under the sheets so I just laid on the bed instead, pretending to be fast asleep.

“And you just got… PUNKED by One Direction! Tell me, how does it feel, Cher-bear?” I knew for sure that this was Louis’ voice.

“…” I can sense that Cher’s completely speechless as of the moment.

“Goodness! What did you do to Liam?!” Louis went on when he probably spotted me on the bed with my eyes still shut.

“…” She’s got nothing to say, huh?

Well, I better step right in to help her…

“Nothing, really. We just slept together, that’s all.” I decided to open my eyes as I sat up.

“Oh my God! What a revelation! Tune in for next week’s continuation of Louis Tomlinson’s very own version of PUNKED starring Cher Lloyd!” Was he actually hosting a TV show?

“Who the hell are you talking to, Louis?” I questioned him.

“These guys right behind me, of course!” And in went Niall, Harry and Zayn who were all laughing their hearts out when they got inside the room.

“You did this, Tomlinson?!” Now I’m starting to get pissed off.

“No, the four of us did.” These idiots!

I can’t help but feel sorry for Cher who was just as shocked as I was…
