"What have you been drinking, Princess?" Noah whispered, now standing behind me rubbing my back. I threw up, again and again, feeling so embarrassed at myself. I broke my top rule for parties and downed a drink that I didn't know what was in it, without a care in the world about the consequences, because all I was concerned with at that moment was the fact that I would have to face my ex-boss, after being kicked out of his apartment for no real reason at all.
Knowing I was not going to reply, he walked out of the room and then returned a couple of minutes later with a cup of water and handed it to me, then taking a couple of steps back.
"Drink," He demanded and I complied downing the water as fast as possible in an attempt to sober up quickly. If we are going to have a conversation, I want to at least remember what is said. But I still felt drunk as ever, I am going to need far more cups of water before I am close to sober.
Noah still standing behind me while I sat close to the toilet, put his hands under my arms and lifted me to my feet, unintentionally tickling me. "Stop! Stop I'm so ticklish!" I wriggled about laughing, I turned to face him and he gave me a straight unemotional look and I stopped laughing, now was definitely not the time for joking around.
I grumpily stomped over to my bed threw my self back onto it, grabbing my pillow and covering my face with it. I guess I must also be a dramatic drunk as well as an emotional wreck.
"Are you going to answer me?" Noah asked, I sat and threw the pillow at him and shook my head. Noah dodged the pillow and then glared at me frowning just like he did back in the house. "Sophia," He warned.
"Urgh, I haven't even had a lot to drink!" I confessed it was true I am just a lightweight who doesn't know how to control her alcohol intake and is anything far from responsible.
Noah left, and once again entered with another cup of water. He handed it to me and we repeated this a few times until I felt like crap. I was definitely sobering up, in one way I was glad about this, but in another, I was annoyed that I let myself get to this state when I promised the McKenzies I would look out for the twins tonight.
"So tell me, what are you doing at my parent's house?" Noah emphasised the word my yet again, he does have a habit of being extremely possessive over anything he has a tie to.
Even in my current state, I know it's best not to reveal that I actually live here. "Kelly and Jackson are my friends, that is why I'm here and that's the only reason nothing else," I rambled and then gave a fake smile all teeth out.
Noah gave one small nod and then said "I'm going to check on things, you need rest"
"But I want to dance!" I protested and stood to wave my arms above my head and swinging my hips to the non-existent music.
"Sleep, now" Noah commanded and I shook my head, still dancing horribly.
With 2 long strides, he was in front of me. He pulled the blankets back from the bed, and pushed me onto the bed, not violently but forcefully enough that I lost my balance and fell backwards gripping the tops of Noah's arms pulling him onto the bed with me.
I immediately burst into fits of laughter, then realised Noah was laying on top of me, steadying himself with his hands either side of my head. His face was inches from mine, if I just reached up I could kiss his gorgeous lips. I looked deep into his blue, dreamy eyes and edged closer to him. I know I should hate him at the moment, but I have no control over my body when I am drunk!
Just as our lips were about to touch he pulled back and was out of the door before I could even register what had just happened. I lay there feeling weird, but why? Because you just tried to kiss the guy you have fallen for, but who you hate at the same time! My subconscious shouts back at me.
