You groan softly as the lights come on the shared bedroom. It felt like you just rested your head, now you're woken up to screaming. Great.
"Nala, shut up!"
You bring a pillow over your head to muffle out the noise, but it doesn't seem to work. Might as well get up.
You sit up and extend your arms out for a stretch in your pink matching pajama set. You smile as you're greeted by the other islanders. You then look at Zayn.
With his back facing towards you, he keeps asleep. Or so you think he's asleep. You reach out to touch his warm back. He moves a bit under your light touch and it tells you he's awake. "Good morning," you say to him. Your fingers end up in his dark hair out of curiosity.
Zayn shifts under your touch again. He takes in a deep and tired breath before he makes himself sit up as well. Though, he keeps his back to you. "Hey," he mumbles.
You watch as Zayn gets up and leaves without looking at you again. You can't help but feel rejected in the moment. Maybe he's not a morning person? You continue to wonder why he wouldn't at least throw a look your way.
"Hi, babe!" Maya jumps onto your bed, laying on her side in front of your crisscrossed legs. "How are ya?"
You look at the pale beauty in front of you. You soften the ceased eyebrows on your face. "Hi, Maya... I was good until-"
"Until what?" She raises an eyebrow when you decided to stop.
You already consider Maya to be a potential best friend out of this experience. Something tells you you can trust her. Why not tell her what you're thinking? "Zayn seems a bit off."
"Why do you say that?"
With a soft sigh, you look around the shared bedroom once more. Everyone seems to clear out either heading to the dressing rooms or outside for breakfast. You look at Maya again. "He didn't look at me this morning."
"Maybe he's not a morning person?" Maya asks as if that hasn't already crossed your mind.
But you laugh it off anyway. "Maybe."
"Unless-" Maya sits up. "You don't think he's a little hurt over your kiss with Harry?"
Harry. That damn kiss. "It was only apart of a challenge, though," you try and defend.
"From where I was standing... I don't know! It was very steamy!" She giggles and gives you a light nudge on your knee. "But don't think too much of it, love. If anything, catch Zayn after breakfast. He might be in a better mood after."
You nod at Maya's suggestion. Maybe she's right. You shouldn't think too much of it.
