Unpredictable

Chapter 29

I sat alone in the club, waiting for Alisha to come back from the bar. The flashing lights and music had started to make me feel dizzy, so I sat down with Perrie and Sejal at a table.

"It'll be fun!" Alisha chirped in my face, grabbing me by the shoulders and shaking me. If she had shook me any harder, I was certain that my head would've fallen off. "We can call Perrie and Sejal and have a girl's night out! Just the four of us." her eyes sparkled, her body jumping up and down in excitement. Staring at her blankly, my expression changed into a wide grin as I gave in. "Fine, Alisha. We'll go. Now call up Perrie and Sejal!"

And here I am, sitting with Perrie and Sejal at a table. This wasn't exactly my type of night out but it's better than being cooped up at home all day.

We stayed for a little while longer, dancing and laughing, just enjoying ourselves. It must have been about 8:55 pm when we had left the club. The girls wanted to walk around the town for a while, possibly buy some things here and there. Usually, the stalls and shops in the town stayed open unil late, and we soon found an ice cream stall that we ended up buying from.

The four of us entered the house, laughing and trying to muffle our sounds by putting our hands onto our mouths. This just made it worse because by the end, we were all snorting with laughter and we could barely breathe. A head popped out of the living room, eyeing us questionably. "What are you laughing at?" Zayn asked, trying to be serious. He couldn't help but break into a wide grin and smile as he watched the us crying with laughter. He shrugged it offand went back into the living room.

Once me and the girls had calmed down, we regained our breath and walked into the living room. Turning my head to one side, I could see Calum, Ashton, Louis and Liam on one sofa and Harry, Zayn Niall on the other sofa... Ash probably wasn't very happy because of that but he knew how to hide it! Alisha took her seat next to Harry, Perrie next to Zayn, Sejal sat on Calum's lap with his arms wrapped around her waist, and I... awkwardly sat alone on the 3rd sofa. There was a long pause while everyone stared at me and I didn't know what to say.

"What were you girls giggling about?" Harry asked us. In my head, I thanked him for breaking the silence. "Oh, nothing!" Perrie said with a sly grin. "It's an inside joke," I laughed carrying on. "We were actually making fun of you Harry." He instantly shot Alisha a puppy dog face. "Is that true?" He pouted, snuggling into her neck. "No babe, she's just teasing," She said as she patted his hair and kissed his head.

Content with myself, I grinned and ran to the bathroom to have a wee. Everyone else started moving upstairs, Harry, Louis, Liam, Niall, and Zayn deciding that they would spend the night. Ashton was here most of the time so it wasn't unusual for him to be staying. He always had slept in my bed, even though Calum was still unsure and told him not to. Cal didn't try to separate us though, he just always gave us that stern look before we went to bed. I love my bro so damn much, even if he's really immature and dirty minded.

Coming out of the toilet, I could hear everyone argue upstairs about who would sleep where and how someone had stolen somebody else's tooth brush.

I walked up to the sofas and began to fix them, picking up any crumbs and propping the pillows up. Cleaning the table and picking up the glasses, I decided to put all of the dishes into the sink and do them all tomorrow morning. As I was carefully placing them into the sink, a pair of arms snaked their way around my waist. Smiling to myself, I knew that it was Ashton behind me. He always did soppy, romantic stuff like this.

He nuzzled his face into my neck, kissing my nape. "Ok Ash, let's go. It's time for bed." I whispered, rinsing my hands and drying them quickly.

Spinning around, my smile faded. My heart skipped a beat and I was certain that I would have a heart attack.

It wasn't Ashton who had been holding me.
