just keep swimming | l.h.

10

When I woke up, I felt very shitty which wasn't strange since I actually had a few drinks too much the evening before.

I rubbed my eyes and tried to get adjusted to the dark room, but I couldn't make out anything other than the body lying next to me. I quickly figured that It was Luke and I sighed happily, at least I didn't sleep in a bed with anyone I didn't know and I didn't mind Luke, I actually liked him a lot.

I got out of bed slowly, I didn't want to wake Luke up. I felt really cold as I got up and I realize that I wasn't wearing anything besides my underwear.

"Great" I quietly growned. Hopefully Luke had been sleeping when I crashed next to him already, I didn't really like the thought of Luke seeing me half naked. I searched for my clothes but I couldn't find them so I just threw on a tshirt I found on the floor and left the bedroom quietly.

The hallway was way too bright for me and my head felt close to exploding. I leaned against the wall to feel less dizzy and breathed deeply.

When I felt a bit better, I walked to the living room to find Jaime tidying up all the trash from the last evening.

"Hey" I mumbled and Jaime smiled at me.

"You're the first one to wake up. Did you have good night?" I groaned, Jaime was talking way too loud and my head was still hurting so bad that I thought it might explode.

Jaime just chuckled and handed me some pills and water, which I quickly swallowed.

I sat down on the couch and Jaime asked if I wanted some breakfast, but I just shook my head and he gave me some coffee, that made me feel better immediately.

"Nice shirt" Jaime smirked when he handed me the coffee and I started blushing.

I was still in Luke's black Ramones shirt, that covered up my upper thighs because Luke was really tall and I was just average sized.

I mumbled "Couldn't find my clothes."

Jaime laughed quietly, then he told me:"Well that's not even strange. You had a pretty wild night to be honest. You even tried to make out with Larry."

I opened my eyes wide. "What? Oh my god this is so embarrassing, I'm never gonna drink again. I'm so sorry."

Jaime just shrugged and said:"I don't mind, it was funny watching you. Larry actually got you to go to bed, he gave you one of Michael's shirt to sleep in but it must've come off at some point."

I didn't even dare to look at Jaime when I asked him:"So nothing happened between Luke and me?"

"No, he's been sleeping when Larry and I got you to go to bed, don't worry. You didn't do anything else besides talking weird crap and acting like a fool. Nothing awkward happened, we protected you."

I hugged Jaime quickly, thanking him before asking him when Ashton left and If I did anything to him that I might have to apologize for. Jaime told me that Ashton's friend picked him up late at night and that I've been asking him some weird questions, but nothing too embarrassing.

Jaime informed me, that Calum slept over at Michael's too and that he'd been sleeping in the spare room on his own, while Larry and Jaime shared Michael's room and Michael actually fell asleep in the bathtub and gave Jaime a heart attack when he wanted to use the toilet earlier.

After a while, Calum and Michael both came to the living room and Jaime gave Michael some pills against his hangover, too but Calum was doing fine, so Jaime just made some breakfast for both of them.

Michael winked at me, saying:"Luke's shirt looks good on you."

I groaned and asked him for some other clothes to put on but we both agreed that we should wait until Larry woke up till we could get me some of Michael's clothes.

Jaime, Calum and I started tidying up the living room while Michael showered quickly and Calum actually found my shorts in the shower of the guest bathroom. I had no idea how they got there but I figured that I probably changed clothes in that bathroom, and I quickly put on my shorts, even though you couldn't see them under Luke's shirt anyways.

***

Just a few seconds after Michael came back from the shower, a really messed up looking Luke came into the living room in nothing but boxers.

He actually had a really nice body, he wasn't that muscular but he didn't look awkwardly thin or anything.

Without saying a word, Calum handed Luke a glass of water and a pill against the headache, which seemed to be even worse than mine.

After Luke groaned loudly, he asked:"What the fuck happened yesterday?"

"Well you kind of got messed up" Michael told him, smirking.

"I didn't even drink much though?" Luke questioned and all of us started laughing.

"Dude, you had more drinks than all of us combined." Calum laughed.

Luke just groaned some more, shook his head and said:"No way man."

Luke's gaze fell onto me and I saw him smile for the first time that day.

"Hey, isn't that my shirt?"

"Um yea I didn't wanna wake you and it was the first thing I grabbed, I can change into some of Michael's clothes though."

Luke smirked and said:"No it's alright, i still have button up i can wear"

I smiled and Luke and he went to get dressed.

Aftee Luke got dressed, he had a talk with Calum and suddenly Luke looked kind of angry, he looked at me for a second and said:"Oh now I remember why I had tha many drinks again"

He frowned and I quickly looked away because I didn't know if I had anything to do with what Luke just said or if he was just looking at me as a coincidence.

Just a bit later, Michael told Calum and Luke that he could give them a ride home and just seconds later the three boys left, leaving me with just Larry and Jaime.

"Is it just me or was Luke ignoring me after talking to Calum?" I asked.

Larry just shrugged and Jaime avoided looking at me. They knew something I didn't.

"Guys..."

"We can't tell you, Luke should do that." Jaime said.

I groaned and begged them to tell me and after a bit Larry gave in.

"CalumtoldusthatLukewasjealousbecauseofAshton" Larry said way too quick.

"What did you say?"

"Luke was jealous of Ashton" Jaime repeated.

I started laughing. This was ridiculous. First of all, I didn't mean THAT much to Luke and secondly there was nothing to be jealous about because of Ashton.

The boys looked at me seriously and I stopped laughing.

"You better talk to Luke about this" Larry suggested.

"I will" I assured him.
