She's not afraid (One Direction/Selena Gomez)

chapter 7

Quiet morning air made my already nervous mind a complete mess. I let seconds progress into long minutes, while I'm standing under warm shower, relaxing my body. I sigh at the thought that one of the boys could throw me out of the bathroom, because I'm taking too much time in here. I turn off the water, push the shower curtain to the side, and carefully step out of the white bathtub. At the cold air that crashed with my naked body I groan underneath my breath. In haste I wrap myself in soft towel. I huff when I realized that once again I'm without clothes.

...Nice thinking Juliet! Next time you'll forget your head!...

I bite my bottom lip and dash out of the bathroom. When I neared my room, I see Zayn coming out of his, which was diagonally across the slender hallway. I turn to look at him. It takes him only a few steps to close the distance between our bodies. The silence was thick around us, we just stare at one another. His lips ready to be kissed lean in, closer to mine, my breaths skip around in eagerness, as the air is getting more and more sensual.

Zayn slowly brings his lips to my ear, I could feel his hot breath caressing my skin there, before he whispers: "I believe that I have some unfinished businesses to attend to."

His words killed my breath, while my heart beat thuds in my ear. I'm lost for words, so I only stare. He pulls away from my body. A cocky smirk latched onto his lips, while he drops one eye in a wink. He then just leaves me there by myself, all stunned and bothered. Few seconds slipped away, before I compose myself. I softly shake my head and walk into my bedroom.

In here I turn on the radio which playing Katy Perry - Hot N cold. Immediately I sing and dance along with the song, while I'm pulling on my heated skin some underwear, follow by black skater skirt, that ends few incehs abowe my knees. I tuck into the skirt, white long-sleeves blouse with black collar, black stitches and black buttons. High knees, woolen, white socks and toms black wedges compliting my attire. I rearrange my messy bun and as usually don't wear any makeup.

As soon as I walk into the kitchen I see that Liam was doing breakfast again, and Louis just sitting by the table. At the sight a smile appeared on my lips: "Good morning!" I greeted.

I go to Liam and give him a kiss on cheek, astonishment tightened his features. I just walk to Louis and repeat the deed. I look from Louis to Liam and back again while standing by Louis and awkwardly shift on my feet. Silence stretched around us, because of my actions. I bite my bottom lip nervously.

...Gosh, I am so stupid! Why did I do that?...

"Good morning Juliet!" Liam was first to speak. A large puff of air in relief falls from my lips.

Louis greets with a smile next: "Morning love!"

"My noble sir Liam. Do you need any help?" I asked lightly, because I'm in good, playful mood now.

"Nop, I'm done." Large grin overtakes his lips. In that instant others walk in the room, taking their places around the table, I mirror their movement. Then Liam serves us a breakfast. While we ate, we chatted away.

"Why are you dressed like some kind of high school girl?" Zayn smirks. Food disappeared few seconds ago.

I quirk my eyebrow, as I make eye contact with him: "Well my dad is coming. And I need to look presentable in front of him. He still thinks that I'm only 10 and he doesn't like if I'm dressed too revealing. Now that you mentioned high school, I should put on my glasses."

"You wear glasses?" Liam questioned with wide eyes.

"Yup, as I told you I'm kind of a nerd." I giggle and shrug. I wear glasses as accessories and not for its need.
