Ian's POV
"How was your meeting?" Chezza asked me with that silly grin on her face. I wore a scarf the whole time in my meeting to cover her huge, obvious kiss mark on my neck. I was left sweating around my neck since the place isn't even cold.
"Sweaty and hot." I joked. Cheryl laughed. I still can't get enough of that laugh. It just shoots through my heart and makes me feel like a freaking teenager all over again. She noticed that I was staring.
"You are so beautiful." I let my mind speak.
She blushed at my words. I thought she would have gotten used to all the compliments already. She's so cute!
"Erm... so d'you wanna go somewhere?" I asked her.
"I just wanna rest back at the hotel for a bit. All this travelling is really draining." She said. I looked at her for a while, well...she does look really tired. I squatted in front of her.
"Come on, get on my back." I said.
"It's okay. You're already forgiven, you don't need to do this." She said.
"I'm doing this because I want to." I said. "Come on, Chezza."
"Okay..." She giggled as she climbed onto my back. She nuzzled her head against the crook of my neck.
"You're so light that I think I can carry you all the way back to the hotel. On foot." I said.
"Really? Prove it." She challenged.
"Alright. I better start walking then." I smiled at her.
...
I've been walking for about half an hour already. Chez was already asleep and she felt a little heavier on my back. I walked into the hotel and saw Dianne by the lobby. I ignored her and went straight to the elevator. Just when the elevator was about to close, someone's arm got in the way and the doors opened again. I looked up and saw her. I kept a blank face.
"Ian, can I talk to you?" She asked me. I didn't look at her.
I kept calm. "Okay, I was going to anyway."
"I'm really sorry about what happened." She said.
"You should be saying that to Cheryl not me." I said.
"Yeah, I'm going to apologize to her too when she wakes up." She said glancing at Chezza, who is sleeping so soundly on my back.
The elevator doors opened and I reluctantly let her in the room. I laid Chezza on the bed and covered her with a blanket. I faced Dianne, crossing my arms across my chest.
"I didn't like what you did." I said. "I was pretty surprised that you of all people could say those words to her."
"I wasn't thinking straight." She said.
"So that means you would take back your words?" I asked.
"If I could, I would." She said.
"Great. Then you better find someone else to say that you're in love with them." I said.
She looked shocked for a moment. "Sh-She told you?"
"Of course she would. She's my girlfriend." I emphasized.
"I-I... Look, I'm trying to move on. Really. I'm doing my best to keep my distance. I just wasn't myself when I was talking to her. I don't want to ruin your relationship or anything." She said. I looked at her and she looked so vulnerable that it's getting hard for me to say to her that I don't wanna see her again.
