The Beat Of Your Heart Will Ignite

Part 2 - The Morning After The Night Before...

*LIZZY'S POV*

I remember nothing from last night and when I say nothing...I mean I actually remember nothing.

I woke up to an empty room and was greeted by both the sun shining through the windows and a pounding headache - it was like someone was inside my head banging it with a hammer. I threw on some joggers and one of Jay's tops before I dragged myself downstairs to find Jay watching something on the TV.

"Morning babe. Good night was it?" he laughed at me. I sat down on the sofa and cuddled up to him, his warm chest against my cheek was already making me feel better. He then wrapped his arm around me, making me feel safe like he always did and I put my fingers inbetween his.

"How did I get home last night?" I asked him as I looked up into his big blue eyes. They were the thing I loved the most about him; they were absolutely gorgeous.

"Well you rung me and I only just managed to make out what you were saying. I picked you up from some nightclub on the high street..." he replied with a gentle smile on his face.

"Is Steph is her room. I don't remember anything, apart from she was flirting with some guy..."

"Steph wasn't with you. When I picked you up, you were with Seev and Amy but they were pretty drunk as well so you must have had a good night with them!"

"I wonder what happened to her then. I'd better text her to find out where she is..." I said as I pullde my phone out of my pocket and scrolled down to Steph's name and clicked on send new message;

To Steph:

Where are you and what happened to you last night? Sorry that I lost you, hope you're alright! xx

I pushed my phone back into my pocket and cuddled up further into Jay so that I could share his warmth. He kissed the top of my head before he wrapped his arm back around my waist, not letting me go again.

"I love you Lizzy!" he whispered lightly.

"And I love you too Jay!"

"I was thinking that maybe it was time we told people we were together...that's only if you want to though?" he said to me. To be honest, I was shocked by this but I suppose it was time that we told people as it would be nice to go out in public without having to keep checking over our shoulder to make sure we're not being followed. The only thing I'm worried about is the reaction from fans, some of them are so in love with Jay that it's always scared me when the thought of us going public popped into my head. However, I know Jay will always love me and he isn't going to leave me just because some fans hate me while others like me.

"I would love to tell people about us. I don't want to lie anymore, I love you and people should know that!" I smiled back up at.

"And I want people to know how much I love you. Now, be quiet I'm trying to watch this programme" he laughed at me, so I just did as I was told and enjoyed the moment with Jay while waiting to see when Steph would reply to me.

*STEPH'S POV*

The vibrations of my phone rippled through the pillow. I managed to force my eyes open to see that it was a message from Lizzy, I'll reply later but right now it's just too early to do anything - I rolled onto my back and the room I was in didn't look familar at all. There was noone next to me so I just sat up and was almost blinded by the light as it hit me full in the face. After the night I had last night, it should be illegal to see light of any kind for at leat 24 hours.

I looked around the room for a clue of any kind as to where I was but there was nothing. All that was in this room was a wardrobe, a bed and a lamp - now that's just boring, who would want to wake up to white walls of nothingness? Someone then walked into the room, the creaking of the door was enough to remind me how much my head hurt. God, how much did I drink last night?

There was a guy stood in the doorway, topless. I must say he looked pretty damn hot as he walked in and pushed the door closed.

"I thought you could do with this!" he laughed as he handed my a glass of water and what looked like paracetomol. I didn't care what it was, just as long as it made this headache go away for a bit.

"What happened last night?" I asked him.

"Well, all I remember is when you and your friend walked into the club. I was stood at the bar and then you walked over and started talking to me...you looked pretty damn hot in that dress!" he replied. I think I need some help...I'm so slow at these things. Nathan bloody Sykes is sat next to me and he is telling I looked hot last night! Why the hell did I not recognise him when he was stood in the door way...bloody hell Steph, you really are slow.

"I think you should stop lying. I didn't look that nice..." I replied as I looked down at my hands. I always did that when I was nervous.

"And I think you should have more confidence. You look stunning last night!" he smiled as he pushed my head so I was looking him in the eyes...his green eyes still the best things I had ever seen.

"I should probably get going, Lizzy will be wondering where I am..." I giggled at him as he continued to stare at me.

"Would you like to borrow some clothes?"

"Only if that's alright, I don't mind wearing my dress home and getting changed there!" I replied.

"I've got plenty and it'll give me a reason to see you again" he joked as he threw me a pair of his joggers and a tshirt. I walked into his bathroom and had a quick shower before throwing on the clothes that Nathan had just given me and I tied my hair up into a loose bun...the only bad thing about being here is I have no make-up.

"Will I do then?" I asked as I walked out to see Nathan lying on his bed, he'd put a top and some clean jeans on by now; his leather jacket hanging on the end of the bed and one of his hats sat next to him on the bressing table.

"Still beautiful...even in my tatty old clothes!" he replied. He was so full of compliments, what had I done to end up in the same house as Nathan Sykes...more to the point what had I done to end up in the same bed as him and have him throwing all these compliments at me? My phone vibrated again, another text message from Lizzy;

From Lizzy:

I'm really worried now babe, where are you? xx

To Lizzy:

Don't worry about me, I'll be home and I'll tell you all about it then xx

I shoved my phone into the pocket of the joggers I was wearing before turning to walk out of the door, leaving Nathan lying there with an almost disappointed look on his face. I couldn't help but laugh to myself as he jumped up off the bed and followed me out of the room.

"You don't have to follow me everywhere, I'm only going home. And like you said, I have your clothes so you'll see me again..." I winked at him and followed that with a little giggle. With that I was gone, leaving Nathan at the top of the stairs, not knowing what to say. I often had that effect on men, but it was normally for a bad reason and not because someone wanted to see me again...

*NATHAN'S POV*

WOW! She really knew how to leave me wanting more and I liked it. No girl had treated me like this before, I normally got them so easily - you know, being Nathan Sykes from The Wanted. But Steph was different, she was going to make me work to get her and I liked it...
