Sit Still, Look Pretty || COMPLETE (Book 1)

Like Dylan O'Brian hot?

I'm awoken by Despacito blasting in my ear. I groan and ignore the call without looking at who it's from. It's too early to be getting phone calls. 7 am to be exact. I roll over, trying to get comfy again.

After ten minutes of tossing and turning, I give up, going to the bathroom and having an hour shower. I shave my whole body while I'm at it, singing random melodies.

I throw on my light grey halter top and ripped denim shorts. I dab on some makeup, leaving my natural ash - blond hair down.

I snatch my phone and room key off of the bedside drawer and head out. I'm going to make it my mission to find a breakfast bar without mums help. I'm 16 in just over a month, I can't keep relying on my mother to help me with everything.

I pull out my phone to find out who tried phoning me earlier. It was Stephanie.

08:07 am
Could you have phoned any earlier? 😴

08:08am
What do you mean? It's gone 1 pm!
- Steph xx

08:08am
It's only just gone 8 am over here! 😢
- Rile xx

My phone pings again, just as I walk into something tall and hard. Ugh. . . I've walked into a wall again.

"Whoah!" The wall says, placing a hand on my shoulder.

Wait, what?!?

I look up, confused. And then it hits me. I've walked into the hottest guy I've ever seen! Oh god, please let the ground open up and swallow me.

"S-sorry." I stutter. I watch every muscle in his arm ripple as he moves his hand away from my shoulder.

He clears his throught.

I look back up at his face. He's giving me a boyish smirk. I'm surprised I didn't faint right there.

"I - uh - erm -" I open my mouth but nothing coherent comes out. I give up and walk away, not looking back.

I look at my phone.

08:09 am
Omg, I totally forgot! I'm so sorry. Please don't kill me 😶
- Steph xx

I ignore her last text and type like my life depends on it.

08:12 am

- Rile xx

08:13 am
NO WAY!!! WHAT DID YOU
SAY TO EACH OTHER?!? 😄
- Steph xx

08:14 am
Nothing. I froze. All I said was sorry. And then he caught me staring at his muscly arms 🙈
- Rile xx

08:15 am
Oh god. We really need to work on your talking skills around fit guys. What did he say when he caught you staring?!?
- Steph xx

08:15 am
He just cleared his through to get my attention and then he just smirked 😏
- Rile xx

08:15 am
And then what?
- Steph xx

08:17 am
Um. . . Well, I sorta ran away 😶
- Rile xx

08:17 am
YOU DID WHAT?!? RILEY 😦
- Steph xx

I can just imagine her disappointed expression. I look down at my white Vans. Model's always got boyfriends. So why can't I?

Maybe because you're a fat and ugly idiot! An inner voice screams.

08:20 am
I'm sorry. Look, I need to go. I'll phone you later xx
- Rile xx

I thrust my phone into my back pocket and wander aimlessly through the hotel.

You are not hungry anymore! You do not need food today! You don't want to get any fatter now, do we?!?

Ugh. . . I hate my inner voice! But it's right. I-I'm not hungry anymore. . . Ok, maybe I am, but I'll get used to the aching. I always do.

After an hour of wandering around the hotel (and getting lost), I decided to go to my mum's room. Her room is on the floor below mine.

Wait, what number did she say again? 324 or 334?

After a long and hard think, I definitely remember her saying 324.

I timely knock on the wooden door. . . There's no answer.

I knock again. . . No answer.

They must have gone for a walk or something. I'm not surprised that they didn't invite me. After all, I didn't invite them to hunt for breakfast, did I?

I walk to the end of the corridor and take the lift up to the next floor. My floor.

9:45 pm
I'm missing you already 😢
- Steph xx

This makes me want to cry. I and Steph have been best friends since nursery when she shoved Becky's head in the sandpit because I wasn't invited to her birthday party and everyone else was. We've only ever been separated when I'm away doing my modelling shit.

9:47 pm
Miss you more, bitch xx
- Rile xx

9:47 pm
Fuck off! I obviously miss you more. You're in New York. You'll soon forget about me 😳
- Steph xx

9:48 pm
Whatever. I'll see you in 2 weeks xx
- Rile xx

9:48 pm
😝. I'm going to bed, night bitch xx
- Steph xx

There's a knock on the door. Room service, I guess. I quickly shove my hair up into a messy bun and open the door.

I hope you are enjoying so far. I'm really excited for you to see what goes on inside my head 😀
