Beach House // colby brock

Chapter 31

The sunlight seeping through the small opening in the window curtain, causes my eyes to slowly open. They immediately start burning and close them again quickly.

I turn my body so I'm facing the other way, I attempt to open my eyes one more time, and trust me when I say, they open quicker than usual.

Laying there next to me is Mike sleeping on his stomach.

At first I'm alarmed, but then I smile. He really does look so cute laying there. Once my eyes had accustomed to the light, I attempt to get up.

Getting up was a bad idea, a huge wave of pain shoots through my head and my stomach pulses. Plus, I'm naked.

I flop back down on the bed and groan. Fuck hangovers.

"You good?" I hear Mikes voice ask me. I turn my head slowly.

"Just wait until you try getting up, then you'll know my answer." I wince.

He smiles as he uses his left arm to wrap around my waist.

He pulls me close so my back is against his bare chest and rests his chin into my neck.

The warmth from his body makes me sigh heavily with pleasure, as my eyes get heavy, falling back to sleep.

"Kendall." I open my eyes, once again, to see Zoe standing next to the bed. I notice her hand covering her eyes.

"Zoe?" I rub my eyes.

"You guys are naked." She cringes.

I look down at my body and laugh. Then start laughing even harder when I do see Mike is still naked as well.

"Turn around." I say. She does as she's told before I get up to change.

Getting up this time wasn't as bad as the first time, but I still have a pounding headache.

I open the drawer that's in the guest room dresser, because I leave clothes there, just in case.

I slip on a pair of sweat shorts and a plain black t-shirt.

"Okay I'm clothed." I laugh. She turns so she's only facing me.

"You and Mike??" She grabs my wrist and pulls me out of the guest room.

"What? It was just a hookup," I say, "Whats wrong with that?"

"I didn't think you guys were going to do that." She face palms.

"Why is it such a big deal?"

"Because." She sighs. "Corey told me that the only reason why he invited Mike on the double date is because he has a girlfriend."

"Mike? Has a girlfriend??" Hearing that even come out of mouth makes me want to vomit more than I already do.

Zoe just stands there, staring at me.

"So what you're saying is he cheated on his girlfriend.. with me?" I roll my eyes. "Why the hell would Corey even invite him then!?"

I could feel my blood boiling, I can never catch a break with any of these cheating boys. First Colby, now Mike.

"I'm sorry Kendall." She frowns. "I had no idea it would even go that far, I honestly thought Mike would've told you."

"Why would he?" I can feel my eyes watering.

"Don't cry." She says.

"I'm not." I quickly wipe away a stray tear that had fallen.

"I'm going home, don't tell Mike where I live." I walk past Zoe and out the front door.

After I close it behind me, I can feel the tears just wanting to run lose. So I quickly get to the elevator and make it to my floor.

As I'm speed walking to my apartment I realize I had left all my stuff at Zoe's, including my keys.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" I groan heavily.

I put my back against my door and slide all the way down so I'm sitting on the floor.

Well, if I can't get into my apartment, might as well cry my eyes out here.

I begin to let the tears run into my hands.

"Honestly? You look like shit." I lift my head up slowly and smile, seeing the one person I know who could cheer me up.
