.CHAPTER 15
-ZAYN-
“WAKE UP, ZAYN! WAAAAKEEE UP!!” A voice shouted in my ear which I believe belonged to Niall. I groan and pulled the blanket over my head.
“WAKE UP, SLEEPY HEAD!!!” He continued.
“UGH. What do you want?” I complained as I sat up, adjusting to the bright light that had welcomed my sight.
“Well. Get your ass down there so that we could eat breakfast already. I’m starving y’know.” He informed.
“Why do I have to be there? You could’ve just eaten without me.”
“Remember? We have a ru-“ I cutted him off.
“Yeah.Yeah.Whatever! I’ll be down there in a few.” I answered.
My head was throbbing due to lack of sleep last night because of… I don’t want to think about it. It’ll just ruin my day. I glanced at my phone to see the time, its already 9:15 in the morning. I slipped on some sweatpants and a white V-neck. I then headed downstairs and proceeded to the kitchen. All of them were sitting already.
I looked for a vacant seat. Sadly, the only seat left was right across Lauren. I took a sit, avoiding Lauren’s gaze. I just can’t look at her right now.
“Okay! Dig in, guys!” Liam announced.
They all started to fill up their plates except for me. I wasn’t in the mood to eat because of few reasons. First, they woke me up. Second, I’m sitting right across Lauren which made things a bit awkward...well, for me. Lastly, I don’t feel like eating. Not that I don’t like the food, I just don’t want to eat. Not now but maybe later.
I placed my empty plate back on the rack and went to the living room when a body blocked my way. I looked to see who it was and in my shock, It was Lauren who was blocking me.
“Move.” I ordered her but she rolled her eyes at me and laughed a bit.
“Someone woke up at the wrong side of the bed.” She teased.
“I said move.” I ignored what she said and pushed her on the side.
Oh my God. Why did I push her? I could feel all the stares penetrating at my back. I don’t know what came over me like I was possessed or something. Oh God.
I fled back to our room and flopped down on my bed, staring at the ceiling. I whispered profanities under my breath realizing what I’ve done. I’ve done something a total dick head would do. Maybe I should apologize right away. How though? Maybe I should apologize later when all of the lads are asleep so things won’t get awkward.
*That night*
Lauren has been ignoring me since this morning, no surprise. Lauren entered our room and went to the bathroom straight away; she even stepped on my foot. Ouch. After what seemed like forever, she thrust open the door wearing only a thin, comfy tank top and short shorts. When I look at her, my brain goes all stupid and I just want to hug her and kiss her but I couldn’t. Focus on her face, Zayn. The face, not the body. Focus Zayn. God damn it! How am I suppose to talk and act normal? Is she doing this on purpose? So, how should I start a conversation? Ugh, this is harder than I thought.
“So..uhh..” I scratched the back of my neck. I probably look like an idiot right now.
“What?” She said plainly.
“Look. I’m sorry, okay? I’m such an ass this morning.” I apologized. She didn’t even said a single word. She just went on bed and slipped under the covers. What the hell?
