CHAPTER 94

(Soundtracks :

She’s Not Afraid, One Direction.

Can I Have This Dance, High School Musical.)

I wake up to a thick smell of something.. delicious. My stomach immediately grumbles as I open my eyes- God, I haven’t consumed anything on the last 24 hours. The last thing I ever consumed was alcohol. The strongest one even. I don’t know how I could survive yesterday, with such a healthy and fine condition, without actually eating at all. God really helps me bear with the bitter situations in my life.

I lazily reach for the bedside table, trying to find my phone. When I finally get a touchy contact with it I find it connected to the charger. Did Niall charge it? Of course he did, there’s nobody else in this damn house except.. Just two of us. The thought alone makes my stomach sick, as I remember what happened last midnight here. I should just get out of this house really, really soon.

Wait, if Niall charged my phone, it means.. He did come here. Oh my Lord. So he saw me sleeping. How if I was snoring? How if my t-shirt was exposed due to my crazy movements whilst asleep? How if he leaned in and kissed me? Why am I overthinking?

He will not kiss me. He won’t dare. Even if he really likes me, he won’t be brave enough to do such things to me. Harry will kill him. I spontaneously touch my lips and shiver at the thought of Niall secretly kissing them.

Harry! Has he given me any texts or misscalls? When his name comes accross my head, my brain immediately reminds me that he’s the reason I wasn’t able to sleep easily. I hastily unlock my phone but I immediately lock it back as I hear the sound of the door opening.

It’s Niall, definitely. He’s wearing a fresh smile and his mouth opens, greeting me. ‘’Goodmorning Luna! Well, not so morning..’’

‘’Why is it not so morning?’’ I ask as I glance at my phone. Shit, it’s been 11 P.M. How long have I been sleeping? Oh, I forgot I slept at 5 A.M. this morning.

‘’Guess you’ve found the answer,’’ I hear Niall chuckling. ‘’I’m not sure if you please missing your breakfast, but I’ve made your lunch. It’s ready, served on the table. Eat it anytime you want to.’’

‘’You cooked it?’’ I ask, beginning to sit down. I don’t realize I’ve been lying on the bed and it’s rather awkward having a conversation where he stands up and I lie on the bed. He nods and closes the door behind him, entering the room. Just as I predicted, he immediately walks and sits on the bed next to me. I believe awkward situations are to come.

‘’Yeah, I did.’’ He smiles, this time it casts some shyness. I thank him and pull the blanket, tidying it up afterwards. Niall never keeps his eye off of me, and I swear it’s terribly awkward. What is he doing here anyway? Shouldn’t he be out or something? I mean, hell, it’s his damn birthday.

When I’m about to stand up, Niall grabs me by the hand. ‘’Wait.’’

‘’You wanna say something?’’ I ask without thinking, and with a totally blank tone. He nods, ‘’Do you know about me and Liam’s party tonight?’’

‘’I do,’’ I asnwer. His words remind me of Liam. Has he replied my message asking about who the hell Sophia is? Damn, many things remind me of many things just in this last 10 minutes.

‘’Great. So are you coming?’’ He asks, I can see his eyes being full of hope.

‘’I am, no worries.’’ I smile. Of course I am coming, I mean Liam invited me and I want to see who the hell Sophia is and how she looks like.
