The Bad Boy

Chapter 43

Stephanie's P.O.V.

        I wake up in the morning cradling a pillow instead of Harry. I climb out of bed, and head out to the living room where I see Niall and Harry watching TV. I am still half asleep as I ask, "Where's Ally?"

        "Bedroom." Niall jerks his head towards his bedroom's door.

        "Okay, if I go in there will I find her A) Fully dressed and B) Not having swiped her v-card with you?" I ask.

        "Yes Stephanie." Niall nods. "Go get her up, it's already like ten in the morning. I want to get this whole shopping trip over with."

        I push open their bedroom door and flop down on the bed next to Ally.

        "Wake up sleepy head." I say, pushing her shoulder.

        Her eyes flutter open. "Oh, Hi."

        "Hi." I laugh. "How was the funeral?"

        "As great as sitting on a closed plane with my mother who smells like a cigareete factory was, it was surprisingly okay." She says. "It was an excuse for me to get this awesome dress even though I will probably never wear it again."

        "That's good." I nod.

        "The funeral was so boring. Like it went on for three hours. I knew absolutely no one there and it was so boring." Ally groans. "I don't want my funeral to be like that. Assuming that you outlive me, I want you to get strippers for my funeral."

        This makes me laugh. "Strippers? You want strippers at your funeral? Why didn't I think of that?" I ask.

        "Look, I even made a diagram." Ally rolls over and grabs something out of her purse on the floor, then rolls back over to me.

        She hands me a paece of paper with a raised up stage drawn on it. Sitting on the stage that's only about four feet in the air is a casket. On either side of the casket is a pole and on the ground there are four more, two in each of the front corners.

        "This is extremely elaborate." I nod.

        "Thanks. I had four hour in a plane so I figured why the hell not?" She says.

        "Now that we have our funeral arrangements figured out, we should probably get up so we can go shopping." I say, not moving.

        "We could or we could go back to sleep for another hour." Ally suggests.

        "I think I like the second option." I say, grabbing a pillow off the floor and tucking it under my head.

        "So this is how Steph decided to wake up Ally. Incredibly effective. Haz, I think you have the next world's greatest brain surgeon on your hands." I hear Niall say.

        I open my eyes to see Ally asleep across from me and Dipshit and Hary standing by the open door.

        "Dipshit, you are stomping on my last nerve." I grumble.

        "That's why I was put on this Earth." Niall says. "That, and to screw your best friend."

        "NIALL!" I warn.

        "Sorry." He says.

        I wake Ally and drag her out of bed with me.

        "You two don't look like you're ready to go." I say, waving at their outfits.
