Canvas - Z.M

Chapter 14

"Forever is ineveitable, it's what you do in society that makes yourself important."  -Me.

Everything around me is just so foggy. I'm afraid to open my eyes in case the room starts spinning, but I'm surprsingly fine.

Mentally, I sit up, but I find the simple task difficult as I lay limb in bed. 

I'm already regretting the shame that I'm about to face from Louis and Eleanor. I feel ncomfortable with last nights dress still on me.

I sigh annoyed and look over to the side to see the time, but theres no alarm clock. I frown momentarily as I realise how different everything looks.

Sitting up abruptly, I notice the room I'm in is a lot similar to Zayn's but the walls are different. Everything is different.

I blink rapidly before looking to my otherside and seeing a glass of juice and some panadol.

Skeptically, I decide to take it as my headache pleads for attention before getting out of bed and walking around the room to find out if I am where I think I am. I hope I'm not.

 Swalloing down the bile in my throat, I carefully gaze around the room and open one of the doors that I'm assuming is going to lead me to the bathroom, and it does. I walk back quickly.

I'm at Zayns!

Everything looks so different. How am I here? What even happened last night?

My heart starts to pick up in my chest as I think of the stupid things I did. But from the minor flashbacks, I didn't do anything stupid or anything that makes me want to crawl in a hole and just die from embarrasement.

Either way, I don't want to get out of this room, knowing that Zayn is most likely downstairs.

What the fuck is the time? Where's my phone?

I clutch onto my head as it begins to pound and I feel like crying. Why?

I'm in such an emotional turmoil right now.

I look around one more time as unwanted memories begin to filter through my head.

My eyes fall on the unmade bed that he's fucked me on countless times and strangled me to where I've almost been unconsious. I gaze over at the wardrobe where I've hidden just to get away from him, only to be found five minutes later.

I close my eyes and shut my brain off from those things and notice my bag sitting on the top vanity.

Grabbing it, I search for my phone and realise it's midday.

My eyes widen momentarily before I grab my bag and slowly walk towards the door. Before I even have the courage to walk out, I tie my hair up and sigh heavily as my heart beats faster and faster.

I look back towards the window thats on the oher side of the room.

If I was spiderman, or if I could fly, I'd be going out that window.

Opening the door, the talking from downstairs subsides.

I take a deep breath and slowly walk downstairs and find Louis approaching me as I hit the last step.

Relief flows through me and my tense posture relaxes as he smiles.

"Hey not so sleeping beauty." Louis chuckles. "You look-"

"Like a beautiful lady waking up from a slumber. Thanks." I smile.

"You all good?"

I nod as I look around the strange but familiar house.
