Lions & Tigers & Liam Payne. Oh My!

Chapter Nine

Chapter Nine

Cher’s POV

            There was a very awkward silence in the dining room when Spencer marched off. Liam left to make sure she was alright like the sweetheart he was. I knew Spencer all too well though. If you even went near a fifty foot radius of her, she would go crazy and probably kill you. I felt bad for Liam. I felt really bad for Spencer too. Everyone was teasing her and she was actually embarrassed. If there’s anything you should know about her, it’s that she has no shame at all. She normally never gets embarrassed. It’s too bad I can’t say the same for her in this situation.

Zayn stayed absolutely silent after seeing the video. I think he was really disturbed. Niall kept shooting Zayn these “I’m-going-to-kill-you” looks which didn’t make things any better. Brooke and Hannah pretended to focus their attention on a speck of dirt on the carpet and Harry and Louis were still silently chuckling at what just happened.

I sat away from everyone else and just embraced the awkwardness. I looked at the clock. 2:03 PM. My stomach growled and I happily left the room and went into the kitchen. What I didn’t know was that I was being followed by a ravenous Niall Horan.

“Feed me,” He ordered.

“What do you want, Niall?” I sighed. I hated cooking for other people. I always felt like my cooking wouldn’t be up to their standards.

“Anything!” He said.

He sounded like a starving child. I opened up one of the cabinets to see what scarce amount of food I had. Well, it looks like I’ll be taking a trip to the grocery store soon…  I found a box of pasta and emptied it out into a bowl. I boiled water and poured the pasta in. Next, I checked to see if I had any chicken in the refrigerator. Luckily for me I did.

I shredded it and cooked it alongside the boiling noodles. When they were both done, I drained the noodles and added the chicken to the pasta. I poured alfredo sauce over it and looked at my masterpiece.

“Chicken alfredo anyone?” I called out to no one in particular.

Suddenly my kitchen was filled with nuisances that I call friends. Niall insisted that he should fix his plate first, so I let him. Liam and Spencer even came back. I ended up fixing mine last, mostly because I just wanted to talk to Spencer and see if she was alright.

I got behind Spencer in line and tapped her shoulder. She turned around and growled at me.

“Are you okay, Spence?” I asked her.

“Yeah, Liam and I talked about the whole situation. I can’t believe how creepy I sounded,” She shuddered as she thought of the video.

“The past is the past.”

“True that sista. I’m glad you made chicken alfredo because I was about to go ham on someone if I didn’t get my food,” Spencer stated.
