The Chatroom

Chapter 17

You know that feeling you get when you think it's the best thing that has ever happened to you. Yeah, that's what kissing him feels like.

What finally got us to break apart was the honking of the car behind us telling us the light was green. We both laughed and I pressed on the gas pedal. I turned into a Mickey D's and parked the car. I hopped out of the car, speed walking to the door of the restaurant, putting my hands over my head to save myself from getting wet from the rain.

Louis ran shortly after me and we walked in together. I walked up to the lady at the cash register. I quickly realised her as Hannah. I looked at the menu. "Can I get a #1 with a sprite?" "Sure, or maybe I should just say that and not do it." She stated, venom dripping in her voice. "What?" I pulled a confused face. "Oh, nothing. Just gonna get some coffee, what about you?" Then it clicked. "I am so sorry! I totally forgot." "You don't say?" She asked, sarcasm hinted. "I am so so sorry! I really did forget! I really didn't mean to. I am sor-" "It's whatever, maybe we can try and do it another time." Her voice was flat as mine was sincerely sorry. I totally forgot today was Wednesday and we had plans. I knew she would end up getting pissed off at me and she would just not talk to me at all and get annoyed. "Tomorrow?" "Sure, Starbucks." She said, putting my order in. 

"Anything else?" She asked as she stared behind me, her eyes in shock. I turned around and then I was reminded Louis was still here. Shock was in his eyes too, but why? "Louis, what about you?" "Huh? Er, I will have a number 6 with a coke." He pulled out his wallet to pay as she told him the total.

We stepped to the side and I still noticed his and Hannah's eyes were locked. Did they know each other? If they did, how come I didn't know? "Number 38!" A worker called out our order. Louis got the bag and walked out to my car. It was still raining, but a light drizzle. I walked into the car driver side slowly, the air between me and Louis was thick. As I entered the car so did Louis. I sat there and stared outside. I put the keys in the ignition, turning the car on, but not fully. I turned my head to Louis, who looked like he was in deep thought. 

"Do you know her?" I asked, slowly. "Who?" He slowly turned his head so I met hit electric blue eyes. "The cashier, Hannah. Do you know her?" "Uhm...Er...I guess...I mean, no. I don't know her." I nodded my head slowly, taking in his words. He seemed to fidget and start to get nervous so I decided not to press any further. "Okay, well, let's go back to my house." I drove back to my house in silence. Not even the radio was on. The tension in the air seemed to just stay there, not leaving. 

I parked outside my house and went to unlock the door. I walked in and found Niall in the same spot. As the time flashed on the digital clock on the wall, I noticed it was 2:30 AM. "You can go upstairs. Leave my food in my room, then you can take the rest." "Okay..." He replied, unsure. He raced upstairs doing as told. I threw the keys into the bowl, and took off my boots, leaving my phone in the right one. 

I walked over to Niall and grabbed a blanket to throw over him. As I turned out the light, I took my hair down from its crappy bun and threw it into a ponytail. Pushing the wisps of hair out of my face with a headband, I turned off the T.V. I walked to Niall and gave him a peck on the cheek. I tried to stand up straight, but Niall pulled me down, landing on him with an 'oomph'. As I tried to get back up he squeezed me tighter. I heaved a sigh and relaxed from my stiff position. As I got comfortable on his body, he started mumbling. 

"I really like her...he likes her too...cheat on his girlfriend...not fair...chatroom tomorrow...good day...talked to mum and dad...I miss Greg..." So, I guess he talks about his day in his sleep. That is adorable. I snuggled my head into the crook of his neck as he rested his hands lazily around my waist.

I fluttered my eyes open, letting them adjust to the bright light. I looked around to see I was in my room. I closed my eyes again and rested my head comfortably on my pillow. My pillow started moving, like it was breathing. I quickly opened my eyes to see Niall's ocean blue eyes boring into mine. "Morning gorgeous." His morning voice. SEX!
