Chapter 13
My eyes are open, staring at the blank canvas that is the ceiling. The boys are still a sleep. My hand itches to grab my phone and see if he’s replied yet. Resisting temptation is not one of my strong points so I give in and check my messages. Why does my whole body flutter when I see his name? Anyways, the text read:
“Morning beautiful J Hope I didn’t wake you. Enjoy your sleep? x”
“Morning, no I was awake a long time ago. Yeah I did, wbu? x”
“Good, I slept great! ;) I'm at the deck eating breakfast, care to join me? You can bring the boys if you’d like? x”
“Sure. See you in 15. J x”
Is this what it feels like to want to explode? He's so sweet, so amazing, so - No. Wait. I can’t do this, not again. Not after what happened last time. I did this before and I got hurt, why would I want to do it again? But Jay wouldn’t hurt me like that, would he?
Images flow through my head much like a strong current of a river, bashing against the rocks of the past that I don’t want to see again. I bring it to an abrupt and by telling myself to breathe and forget. This vacation is about letting loose and having fun and that’s exactly what I'm going to do.
I quietly get out of bed and get ready. After finishing up and step out of the bathroom, I see the boys still fast asleep. “Guys.” I whisper but only the walls hear me. “Guys.” I say a little louder but no one budges. I was going to be nice and wake them up like a normal human being. But when have they woken me up like that.
It’s time for revenge.
Grabbing the kettle on the counter and a spoon and clattering them against each other, I basically shout, “BOYS YOU GOTTA GET UP!!!” Liam, Louis and Niall very quickly prop themselves up, clenching their sheets in shock. Harry does the same but bangs his head against his lamp, letting out a painful groan. Zayn simply turned over with his pillows now covering his ears. I laughed at their reactions, I almost fell over, that’s how much I was laughing!
“Dee? What the hell?” Liam tried to be serious but I know he wanted to burst out laughing just like Lou and I. “I had to get you guys up for breakfast.” I said between laughs. “I'm up.” Niall grinned. “My head…” Harry groaned rubbing his temple, where the lamp had hit him.
“Are you okay, Haz?” I said still laughing as he joined in with the rest of us. “Zayn, wake up! We’re gonna miss breakfast.” Niall whined, tugging at Zayn’s sheets but he simply swatted Niall’s hand away. “Liam! Get Zayn up!” Niall whined again hitting Zayn with a pillow. “Zayn mate, get up!” Liam said sleepily hitting him with a pillow. “This looks fun. I wanna join.” Lou grinned copying Niall’s and Liam’s actions.
Don’t ask me how but soon we were all hitting Zayn with pillows, laughing as we attacked him and he attempted to defend himself. “Alright! Alright, I'm up!” He shouted while laughing along with us. This is what I loved about the boys, everything was always fun with them. “Alright, guys. I'm gonna go down while you get ready, kay?” I asked.
