Thinking Out Loud {Sequel to 'The Only Exception'}

Oops

I yawned and stretched my arms up above my head, then pulling the covers up over my face to block out the light coming in the blinds.

Ugh what a headache I had.
Wait, I don't remember coming home last night, the last thing I remember is me and Jaymi twerking at the club; you don't wanna know.

I moved the covers from my face and let my eyes adjust to the light before I examined the room I was in.
Well it defiantly wasn't mine.
It was a lot bigger, more moderne and messier than mine.
Ah fuck I obviously got pissed last night and got with some random creep.
Just then I felt a body move in the bed next to me.

Oh no.

I was too scared to turn around to see who it was... Well I'm going to have to at some point, might as well get it over with.
I slowly and quietly turned round trying not to wake them up.

No no no no no and no. Not him, anyone but him. What the hell happened last night?!

I was just about to get out of bed and make a run for it when he started to wake up. I quickly closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep.

I felt him sit up in the bed.
"Lucy?..." I kept my eyes closed. "Lucy, I know your awake" damn he got me.

"Good morning" I said confusedly squinting one eyes open.

"It's been a while since I woke up next to you" he chuckled and I awkwardly joined in.

"So... um... did we...?" I literally felt so awkward, I was so drunk last night I have no recollection of the events.

"Lucy... I was even more drunk than you were last night, but by the looks of things I think we did, I mean I'm naked..." he paused and lifted up the covers.

"George!" I yelled.

"And your naked too so yeah, it's not that hard to work out" he laughed.
The weirdest thing about this all is that he doesn't seem that bothered.

"Oh god" I moaned falling back onto the pillow.

"Why are you even bothered, it's not like it hasn't happened before" he smirked. I just decided to ignore him.

"I'm going for a shower" I said grabbing my underwear from the floor and slipping it on under the cover before getting up.

"The first door of your left, there should be towels in there" George smiled.

"Thanks" I mumbled and went to find the bathroom.

It was one if the best showers I'd ever had. The water was just so warm and relaxing and all I wish is that I could of stayed in it for the rest of the day; but I couldn't of course.
I wrapped a towel around my body and left my hair to hang because there wasn't another towel.

I left the bathroom and went back into George's room but his room was now empty.

"George?" I shouted

"Kitchen" I heard coming from another room. I made my way through different halls until I found the kitchen.

George was standing at the kitchen counter eating a bowl of coco pops in nothing but a pair of boxers. It's been 3 years and he must of spent a large majority of those 3 years in the gym because that boy standing eating a bowl of coco pops had the most amazing, toned body ever.

For a second there I forgot I was standing in just a towel.
"George, does Harriet by any chance have any spare clothes here?"

"Yep, the door next to my room is her room, help yourself to whatever" George said as his eyes trailed up and down my body. I walked down the corridor out of the kitchen.

"And don't think I didn't notice you checking me out!" George shouted and I could tell there was a large smirk on his face.

"Right back at you" I laughed and I heard him laughing too.

I found a summery skater dress in Harriet's wardrobe and I settled on wearing that. I left my hair down, trusting it to dry to its natural curls.

I left Harriet's room not even thinking twice about makeup.

"Well as much as I enjoyed my stay I should probably go home" I said in sarcasm as I entered the kitchen.

"Leaving so soon? If you enjoyed your stay so much why not stay longer" George smirked.

"George" I sighed, unsatisfied.

"You have to admit, it was weirdly nice waking up next to each other" he said getting up off the sofa and pulling up his jeans.

"George" I sighed again.

"Lucy" he mimicked back.
We stood in silence staring at each other. He knew he was pushing me. He knew exactly what I was about to say.

"Why would you even want to be anywhere near me after what I did to you" I mumbled, rubbing my forehead.
George came closer to me so we were now at arms reach.

"I forgave you Lucy, the day you left. I forgave you because I realised what my life was without you. It's you that never forgave yourself." Georges words hit me hard, right in the chest. He was right. The reason I avoided him since it happened is because every time I saw his face or heard his song my mind would attack me with guilt.

"And I don't think I ever will" I admitted looking down at my feet.

George gently wrapped his finger around mine and slowly pulled me towards him.

"Everyone deserves second chances" he whispered.

"Not m-" he cut me off.

"Especially you"

And with that he pressed his unforgettable lips up against mine.
