Forgotten memories

Chapter 14

When I wake up the next morning, I'm still in my dress. I quickly pull it out and there is a bad taste in my mouth. I remember that I forgot to brush my teeth and immediately went to bed and groan. I quickly put on some black jeans with a simple grey shirt and wipe the mascara from under my eyes. I rush to the bathroom, wanting to get the taste away as quickly as possible.

I pull the door open and walk inside, only to be met by warm steam and someone showering behind the shower curtain.

'Hey who is there? Harry if it's you again I swear I'm going to-' Niall exclaims, trying to be louder than the shower.

'Eh it's just me, I wanted to brush my teeth but I'll just come back later' I quickly reply, realising I'm separated from a naked Niall only by a small piece of cloth. I want to walk out again, but the floor is extremely slippery and before I know it I feel the ground slip away under my feet and I'm falling down. I manage to grab the side of the sink but this only results that I fall straight into the bathtub in stead of on the ground. I try to hold myself onto the shower curtain but it's too weak and I take it with me as I fall onto Niall.

Niall is caught by surprise and with a scream we both fall over in the bath tub. I'm on top of Niall, fortunately the curtain is between us. The shower is still on and I'm immediately soaked to the bone, my eyes burn of the leaked remainder of mascara and I rub my eyes a few times before I can finally see properly again.

'Geez Kate, if you wanted me you could've also just asked,' Niall exclaims, his head still under the shower curtain. He pulls it off his head and looks at me with a cheeky grin.

'Ha ha very funny Niall, just help me get out of here,' I shoot at him, still in shock.

'How? You're on top of me!' Niall exclaims in disbelief. I roll my eyes at him and try to push myself up with my arms. Just when I think it's working, my hands slip and I fall down with my head on Niall's chest.

'Ouch' I moan as I push myself up a little again. Niall looks at me astonished and before I know it he starts to laugh. His laugh is infectious and I have to push myself not to laugh as well.

'This is not funny Niall! Look at us! I can't even get up, it's too slippery,' I exclaim in desperation, which results in only more laughter from Niall. I pinch my eyes at him and shake my soaking hair in his face. He splutters and pushes my hair away. Now he's the one to pinch his eyes. All of a sudden he seems to remember something as his expression changes.

'How was your date?' He asks as he quirks one eyebrow. I sigh and pull a face.

'Niall this is not the right,' I say while trying to get up again, but I fail as everything is too slippery, 'Ouch, time.' I look at him. 'Niall you aren't even trying! You're enjoying this aren't you!'

He grins again and his eyes sparkle, which gives them a beautiful glow. He sees I'm serious about this and sighs.

'Okay okay, just turn off the water first,'

I open my mouth and look from him to the tap and back again.

'Idiot!' I exclaim as I hit him playfully on the chest. He chuckles at this and I move my arm forward to turn it off. After stretching out completely I am able to turn it off and the stream of warm water on my back goes away. I shiver immediately at the cold air. I try to get up again and slowly but surely I succeed. I sit back on my knees, Niall's legs between them.

'Finally' I mumble as I get up slowly. Niall remains where he is and looks at me curiously. I cheer as soon as I'm out of the tub and look at him with a grin. He winks at me and I roll my eyes at him before walking carefully out of the slippery bathroom.
