The phone falls from my hand onto the carpet, and I'm lucky it makes no noise in case Harry could hear me. I scramble, my hands shaking, to pick it back up and retract in silence like I was never here.

But then Ryan decides to scream bloody murder.

"Holy shit! What did I tell you?! What did I motherfuckin' say!"

Alarmed, I quickly end the call to shut him up, the shower water turning off in an instant as I leave his room and shut the door as it was, sprint to my room, jump onto my bed and get under the covers.

"There's no way that just happened," I whisper to myself, covering my mouth as my chest heaves up and down from running.

Suddenly, I begin receiving multiple texts from Ryan, silencing my phone before I read them, making sure I'm still completely under the covers like a child hiding because they're in trouble with their parents.

Although I'd rather be in trouble with my parents than this.

Ryan:
Did he hear me?
Shit.
Also, can I just say that...
I FUCKING TOLD YOU!
PLEASE TELL ME YOU TOOK A PEEK I NEED DETAILS

Caroline:
No!! He shut the water off so fast after you yelled I ran! You set this up didn't you? It's a joke. You knew I'd go to his room and get angry at you

Ryan:
Oh yeah, sure, because I totally knew he was going to do everything he did today for you with Mike and get whipped over it. Of course not! I'm not that much of a bitch jeez

Caroline:
You're saying this isn't a joke?

Harry and I just laughed and talked on the ride home, trash-talking Mike and meaninglessly discussing other stuff we should've said to throw him off. When we arrived home, he simply told me that he needed to take a shower.

Suddenly it hits me like a train.

He already took a shower before we went out.

And that's where he once joked that he does his... business.

Ew...

Caroline:
Oh my god he showered before we went out.
I didn't even think anything about it

Ryan:
AHAHAH NO WAY
I am smiling so hard right now this fucking is great. Matchmaker Ryan Baker does it again.
Omg I wonder how much he showers then ;)
