You had me at hello (ON HOLD)

Chapter 13

Zack places his finger on my lips as he slowly opens the door to the bus. We quietly walk in and walk over to Zacks bunk, luckily no one is awake. Zack hands me one of his t-shirts and I climb into his bunk to get changed. Getting changed in a confined space while trying to be quiet is a lot harder than I thought, but I manage to do it without waking everybody up or hurting myself so I think I did quite well. I sit all of my crap at the bottom of Zacks bunk and I look out. Zacks standing outside with his back to me, he's changed into only a pair of shorts and is staring at his phone. I cough lightly and Zack turns and smiles at me, I smile back at him. He walks over and climbs in next to me, I lay my head on his chest as he wraps his arm around my shoulder. He falls asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow, he looks adorable when he sleeps. I really can't believe I did this tonight, if it was another guy who did this I probably wouldn't have did it. I don't think. But it's like everytime I'm around Zack all of my worries go away, I completely forget about my parents, my friends, everything that makes me feel bad. I fall asleep that night to the gentle beating of Zacks heart.

--Zacks POV-- 

I'm woken up by jacks loud voice. I look down at Alice, she has her hand wrapped round my waist and her head is lying on my chest. I can feel her breathing lightly, she looks so peaceful when she's sleeping. I move a strand of hair from her face and leave the bunk trying not to wake her. I wak into the front lounge where jack and Alex are watching TV and Tay and Rian are standing taking eating breakfast.  

"the wanderer returns!" Alex says smirking. I slap his head as I walk past him into the kitchen to get something to eat.  

"where did you go anyway? 'cause you definitely didn't just go for a drive" Tay say as she eats a spoonful of cereal.  

"I did go for a drive I just made a few stops thats all" I say smirking.  

"ZACK GOT LAID" jack screamed at me running up at me to hi-5 me.  

"no I didn't get laid" i say as i pour out a bowl of cereal for myself.  

"then what were you doing sneaking onto the bus at like 4 in the morning with a girl?" 

Everybody looks at me with eyebrows raised.  

"where is everybody?" I say trying to change the conversation.  

"no don't change the topic! Answer the question" Alex says.  

I look at the bunks and see Alice's head peaking out of mine, then she climbs out and walks into the lounge. Wow she look cute in the morning. Her hair is slightly messy and she keeps on pulling at the bottom of my shirt to stop it from being too short, she bite her lip awkwardly and looks at everybody.  

"um.. Hi... again" she says.  

Tay rushes over and hugs Alice.  

"I can't believe Zack didn't tell me you were here!" she say glaring at me, Alice starts laughing.  

"yeh it would've probably helped if he at least gave me a warning as well instead of turning up outside my house at midnight" she laughs "not complaining though" 

"Aww that so cute Zack" 

Tay and Alice sit on the couch next to Jack and Alex and Alice describes everything about what happened last night. I don't understand how girls could sit and listen and talk about things so much. I think Alex and jack felt the same way because they came over to me and Rian in the kitchen.  

"she seems happy?" jack says smirking 

"no, I was being serious when I said we didn't" I say to him 

"aww man" 

Jack hands a happy looking Alex 5 dollars.  

"why do you guys bet on everything?" I laugh 

"it just makes everything more interesting" 

"and why diD you bet dollars? You won't be able to use them" 

"good point, I want five pounds" Alex says in a terrible English accent. I walk over to sit on the couch next to Alice, she smiles at me then goes back to her conversation with Tay. They're talking about shopping or something like that, I just sit and eat my cereal quietly.  

"Zack me and Tay are gonna go shopping, do you want to come?" Alice say to me.  

I really didn't want to go shopping, but I want to spend some more time with Alice. Buts he probably is just saying that to be nice, she probably just wants to spent time with Tay. just answer her. 

"zaaaack" Alice say waving he hand across my face laughing.  

"huh? Oh yeh, em I think I'm just going stay here" 

"oh okay" she looks upset at first but she quickly hides it with a smile.  

"told you, the boys would rather tidy the bus than go shopping with us" Tay say laughing.  

Tay shows Alice the bathroom and she goes to get changed.  

"so where is everybody?" I ask Alex.  

"they said they were gonna explore" he says.  

"cool"

Alice and Tay return to the lounge ready to leave. Alice had tied her hair up so her eyes really stood out, she had black skinny jeans and glamour kill t-shirt.  

"bye guys we won't be long" Tay say as they head to the door.  

"I doubt it" Alex mutter.  

"shut up" Tay say lightly punching his arm.  

"bye Zack" Alice says and they both leave the bus.
