The Idiot next Door...

Spying and Almost Dates

I sat on my bed with a notepad, trying to think of ways to plot our victory. Niall's cuteness is already a solid moneymaker, but it wouldn't hurt to think of some other things. But if you'd look down at my paper now, all you would see is senseless ideas scribbled out hastily all over. Examples include ...

Wear full-body casts and pretend to raise money for hospital bills

Tell people the chocolate will help them lose weight

Dress Louis up in a bunny suit and hope for the best

Okay that last one was a bit ridiculous. I drew little squiggly lines around the paper and started doodling. I drew a little heart around Louis' name and stared at it until my lips curled into a smile. I drew another heart in the corner with our initials and started giggling.

"Are you okay?!" I heard a muffled voice shout, making me jump from my dreamland. I turned around and saw Luke in his room staring at me as if I had another head growing. I signalled him an 'OK' sign and turned back to my doodling. I noticed the room got darker and turned back again to see that Luke turned off his lights.

"Are you going to sleep?" I yelled. He didn't answer and I was taking it as a yes. Time to commence Operation Sneak Attack.

I waited a good ten minutes before I opened my window and crouched over it. I looked down and tried to hold the hoarse cry that escaped my lips. I forgot how scary this was ...

I shut my eyes tight and jumped over until my hand latched on to the ledge. I exhaled in relief and reached into my pocket, searching for a bobby pin. My sweaty left palm started slowly inching off the ledge, causing me to widen my eyes and search more frantically. I found the ion and used my teeth to open it. I struggled as I wiggled the pin inside the keyhole and feel my pinky finger slide off the ledge.

I heard a familiar click and used all my strength to pull myself over the window, trying to shift my weight over until I realised I was a few inches from falling into Luke. I flailed my arms frantically and tried to lean back out of the window but ended up crashing on to the bed.

I froze for a minute in complete shock. After I was sure he was still asleep, I scrambled off the bed and wandered around his room. In the corner of his room were a few boxes of chocolate piled on top of each other in sloppy piles. I dug around in it and found a clipboard, complete with the list of names and chocolate.

I flipped through the pages with a disgusted face. He had endless sheets of papers with tons of names who bought tons of chocolates. I flipped back to the first page and searched for the total. "78 boxes?!" I whispered loudly.

"Mrmfmmffmmrr," I heard Luke mutter. I stared at Luke as he turned in his bed. When the coast was clear, I slowly climbed on to his bed, trying not to make a sound. When I was about fully on his bed, I sat there and contemplated how I could get over the big lump of Luke. I ever so slowly crawled over him, almost making it to the window when I felt a hand latch on to my wrist. I didn't even have time to react before I was yanked down on to the bed, feeling a warm pair of arms wrapping around me from behind and some flimsy legs tangling into mine.

EEEEEEEEWWWWWW EW EW EW OH MY GOD CAN I GET A DISEASE FROM THIS?!

I opened my mouth, prepared to scream my lungs out but remembered about where I was and what I had to do. I checked to see if he was still asleep and slowly slid one arm out of his cradle, trying not to flinch at the tickling skin-ship. I struggled out of his embrace and tried wiggling myself out when his head dropped down against my shoulder, blowing hot breaths against the lining of my neck. "STOP!" I screamed instinctively, smacking him in the face with my free arm. I gasped and covered my mouth when I realised what I just did. Luke furrowed his eyebrows, unravelling his arms from around me. I turned around to find his still dormant face only a centimetre away from mine. My eyes widened and I froze, fully convinced that the slightest movement would wake him up.
