Sing till I fall asleep || H.S

"You're all coming, right?" Erin asked while putting away her hair in the hood of her jacket, she thought if she hid her hair from the passive smoking it wouldn't stick to her, if she only knew the smoke stuck to clothes too, I always carried an extra hoodie when smoking so I could leave it in my school locker, hoping mum wouldn't smell me coming home.

Erin's parents had a lake house an hour from town, which she invited us all to this weekend. I'd rather not share a house knowing the boy I like sleeps with another girl. A beautiful girl who looks good even though her hood is tight around her head, she didn't look like an egg while doing so like I would.

"Is there a lake we can swim in?" Louis asked curiously as he took a drag.

"Obviously," Wienna rolled her eyes, then turning to Erin, "Sounds awesome, I can only stay one night though."

I agreed, "Yeah me too." Saving myself for being left alone with the others.

"Lou do you really want to go swimming in bloody November?" Niall shivered at him.

"Why not?"

"We do have a hottub, maybe that's a bit warmer." Erin smiled at us, waving away the smoke around her. Of course we would have to witness her model-body as well. This is fucking fantastic.

"That sounds awesome!" Niall kissed her cheek and then held an arm around her shoulder, "My place?" He asked her motioning to his car standing on the parking lot.

They start walking away, saying their good byes, "Oh and I invited Harry, Liam and Zayn, I thought of you two!" She said pointing at me and Wienna.

"What the hell?" I lift my brows.

Why? Obviously we didn't know them good enough to invite them, right?

"Thanks for thinkin' bout me then, babe!" Louis shouted at her and she just flipped him off before they got in Nialls car and drove off.

I looked at Louis and Wienna, "Why would she do that?"

Louis beamed, "You could bunk with Harry? Erin couldn't possibly have a bedroom each for us."

Wienna agreed with him, "I'll rather sleep in the bathtub than with any of 'em."

It was probably true, her type of guys were older, preferably buff and called the gym their second home. At least that's the three latest boys she's been with...

"They're all quite fit." Louis shrugged.

"I bet she just wants to find out gossip about them." I dumped my cig on the ground and then we all started walking towards our cars.

"Or maybe she actually does want to set us up."

I didn't want to be set up. That's the issue.

Friday came around. School was over, my bags were packed in the back of Louis' trunk ready to leave for the lakehouse. We'd also packed loads of alcohol, Wienna agreed to drive so that Louis and I could get shitfaced before arriving to make it less awkward (I needed to, Louis just wanted to).

Mum wasn't too sure about all of us leaving together, she did know we weren't always that innocent whenever we partied, mums notice more than you think, I can imagine.

I almost wished she begged me to stay at home.

"I think Harry, Liam and Zayn are the only people in school I can't recall ever having a conversation with." Louis held the bottle of white wine in one of his hands and his phone in the other, scrolling down the boy's instagrams.
