WEAKNESS

Chapter 22-Hangover

I woke up the following morning with the mother of all hangovers. This is why I hate vodka. I lay there massaging my forehead, my head hurt so much I didn't even want to open my eyes.

I felt movement beside me, I was shocked I let out a scream jumping off the bed. Opening my eyes it hit me, this isn't my room and there lying on the bed with a shocked expression is Bradley.

"What's wrong Luthando?", he asked staring at me with hunger. Looking down I realise why I'm in my bra and panties, embarrassed I grab the first thing I saw which was his shirt on the floor and buttoned it up. I couldn't help but notice him smirk a bit before acting all serious again.

I stood there feeling bad, I can't believe I slept with him and worst of all I was too drunk to remember. As if sensing my uneasiness he got up from the bed letting the cover slipping leaving him in only his boxers, good grief I could never get used to staring at such a sexy body. " Like what you see?", he asked chuckling as he took my hands in his. I felt like melting to the ground.

" Last night was fun", he said smiling. I felt so ashamed and looked away. "No,no! We did not have sex don't worry.", he said making me face him again." But I woke up in your bed and we are both undressed?. " , I asked not convinced. He lauged hard, "Baby I'd we did we would be completely naked!". "We came up here and carried on drinking till you passed out, I took off your dress because it looked a little uncomfortable to sleep in, I'm sorry".

I gave him a smile and he returned it by hugging me. I loved being in his arms. "Let's sleep a bit, I don't know about you I have a massive headache", he said getting to bottles of water from a small bedside fridge and taking pills from his drawer. He handed me two and also took two. " Its  Monday, aren't you going to work?, I asked after taking a pill. " I deserve a day off,don't you think?", he said leading me to bed. "Now let's nap a bit, I promise I won't do anything to you", he said smiling. "Unless you want me to", he added smirking.

I was equally tired so I played beside him on the bed facing the opposite direction. He spooned me letting one hand go over my waist. It felt really good to be in his arms and I let myself drift off to sleep.

"Now here is something you don't see everyday", his mom said laughing staring at us in bed. I got shocked pulling the covers up, thank God the headache was better. " Morning mom", Bradley said sitting up."Its noon darling!", she said smirking. "I should have known when both of you did not show up for breakfast!". I was really embarrassed so I just looked down hoping to disappear. "Mother you are jumping into conclusions and making her uncomfortable.", Bradley said getting up from bed and pulling on a T-shirt from his closet.

" I'm sorry dear", she said smiling at me. "Well I just wanted to tell you we leaving now,we have to catch our flight", she said to her son. "Oh!I had no idea. Let me go say goodbye to everyone, I will be right back Luthando", he said giving me a smile. " Goodbye dear", she said hugging me. "Do stay in touch", I nodded and watched her leave the room with her son following behind.

Once alone in his room I waited a few minutes then i got up from the bed and picked up my dress and heels from the floor,looking out the window I saw Bradley talking to his family outside. Knowing the coast is clear I walked to my room with my clothes in hand wearing his shirt.

Once in my room I got undressed and got into the shower. I let the events of the day before play into my head as the shower relaxed me, it was one long shower.

Stepping into my room in nothing but a towel I found Bradley  casually sitting on my bed his hair wet from a shower wearing shorts and a T-shirt. "That was a long shower", he said chucking. "I had a lot in my mind" , I said grabbing the top of my towel tightly against me.

I was feeling self conscious and it didn't help that he was staring at me with pure desire.
