The Falling Stars (The Vamps and One Direction Zombie Apocalypse)

Chapter 28- What just Happened?

My head ached. Thankfully, my stomach was empty so I had nothing to throw up, but for the others, not so much.

I woke ridiculously early because of the pounding in my head, my mouth tasting foul. I dragged myself away from the main room where I had spent the night, and walked into the kitchens, shoving my head in the sink and turning on the cold tap. It was like hell had literally frozen over and come pouring out of the tap, the rushing sound only making my headache worse. I just wanted to shove my head in some sheets and sleep for the rest of eternity.

I tried to walk down the next corridor, but after one glance at the light streaming through the window, which felt like a super powerful fluorescent bulb was being shone inside my head, I slumped to the floor and put my head between my knees, moaning in agony.

After sitting groaning for two hours straight and seeing only one other person, I headed back up to the room I was sharing with Niall, expecting it to be empty because it was now 11:30am and I could hear some people in the bathrooms and a vague buzz of voices from the upstairs room. I couldn’t remember anything which happened the night before, and was probably better off for it.

Evidence of the night’s party was littered everywhere, telling a story that no one should ever tell. Broken bottles, pill packets, and, disturbingly, a pair of pink lace underwear lay outside Brad’s room. I shuddered and opened the door to mine and Niall’s room, shutting the door behind me quietly.

Luckily, the room looked empty, although someone had gone through my bag and taken a lot of the condoms out. I didn’t really care as I didn’t have much of a use for them.

I had just removed my shirt and picked up a new one when I realised I wasn’t alone in the room. It was a quiet sound, one which I probably wouldn’t have picked up on if my hangover hadn’t left my senses acutely tuned to the smallest of sounds. A moan.

But it wasn’t just any moan. It was a female moan. Shit shit shit shit shit!!!

I thought, immediately panicking as I saw the bed covers start to move around. I scrabbled to find all my stuff but it was harder to do now I was panicking and I was definitely making more noise than before.

“Fuck.” I heard someone say.

“What?” The other voice said, sounding exasperated.

“Well Niall, I don’t think there’s just us in this room actually”

A head popped out of the blankets, tousled and brightly coloured hair sticking up almost on end.

“Hey Connor!” She grinned cheerily, jumping out of the bed. She was completely naked and apparently didn’t care. I just stood there like a deer in headlights, shocked into silence. “Nice muscles!” She chirped, pointing to the fact that I was still shirtless. I gasped a bit and immediately started to pull on a shirt off the floor. She walked around the side of the bed, shaking the blankets until a dishevelled Niall burst out torso first from the sheets.

“L, don’t be naked in front of the new guy, he doesn’t know you properly!”

“Oh it’s fine!” She said, giving Niall a look “I don’t see what’s so embarrassing about the human anatomy, it’s just skin”

“Fair enough, L, but if you get dressed I’ll let you borrow my green t-shirt again” he half argued with her.

“Like I wasn’t going to anyway!” She smiled, pulling the shirt out from a draw to her right and shoving it over her head. It came down past her waist like a dress and looked really long on her. She was pretty short, not Casey short, but still pretty short.
