"Celine!" I heard outside my room.
Fifteen minutes had passed waiting for Max to leave. Once I was certain he had left, I slowly opened my door and snuck into the bathroom. I slowly opened the bathroom door, and quietly closed it behind me.
"Ladybird?" I spun around and saw Chase standing at the sink.
"Frick!" I nearly dropped my towel I was so surprised. He started laughing. "What are you doing in here? This is supposed to be my own private bathroom," I whispered wrapping my towel around me tighter.
"The other bathroom was occupied, the one toilet isn't working etcetera..."
He leaned against the sink with a smug smile on his face.
"You can leave now." I said sternly.
"What happened to being all lovey-dovey earlier?" He stepped closer.
"Um, no, excuse me! I need to shower and I will literally shout rape if you don't leave right now." I said stepping back.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Celine? Are you ok in there?" It was Connell.
"Ugh! Keep quiet!" I whispered to Chase. "Yes I'm...I'm fine Specs, thanks,"
"Oh, ok, I just thought I heard someone in there with you,"
As he said this, Chase started walking closer to me and in the cramped bathroom, there wasn't much space to get away from him. I stumbled away from him into the small metal bin behind me, making a huge unnecessary noise.
"Are you sure you're ok? Have you hurt yourself?"
"No, Connell, I'm fine!" I yelled to him. Chase was trying to grab my waist whilst I was trying to shove him away
"Come on Ladybird, can't I have one more kiss?" He whispered to me, pulling me into him.
"Get off!" I shoved him and Connell suddenly came bursting through the door.
"What the hell?" He looked at me and then at Chase who had, conveniently, fallen on top of me. I was just barely able to keep my towel up. "What the hell is going on here?" He shouted at Chase.
"Specs – '' Chase warned, getting up and going towards him.
"Connell – '' I started.
"No! What the hell is going on? Are you two – ?" He looked at me with a deep look of disappointment.
"No, no, Connell – '' I tried walking towards him.
"I can't believe you!" He shouted, storming out of the bathroom.
"Connell!" I stood at the end of the hall and watched him storm downstairs. "Get out!" I shouted at Chase. He stood and looked at me confused. "Did I stutter? Get out! Now!"
"Celine – ''
"Can I not just have a normal fricking shower in this house?"
"Celine, I'm sorry – '' Chase tried apologizing quietly but after the whole ordeal, I was not in the mood.
"Chase, please just get out the bathroom."
He looked at me sadly and sluggishly left the bathroom.
I went downstairs after I had a short shower and found Chase, Calvin and Max sitting on the couch. Max stood up as he saw me but I just carried on into the kitchen where Aubrey was sitting with a cup of coffee talking to Sawyer and Dale.
