University - Love Hate Holiday
"OhMyGod he's looking at you!" nudged me and we burst into giggles as I pretended to scan the carosel for my suitcase and "accidently" caught the cute guy's gaze and he gave me a smile."AND he's got a cute guy with him! I think this holiday's going to be quite fun," winked at me as a haired guy tugged at the guy's arm as he spotted a florescent green case heading their way.
"Oh and he has the same taste in colour as you. As you always say, bright is best," winked at me before spotting my black spray-painted case getting some wierd looks. She grabbed it quickly, forgetting how heavy it was and nearly fell onto the carousel herself.
After heaving another case off the carousel, we headed to the coach in the Spanish heat, struggling with our suitcases.
"Oh let me help you with that," I was disappointed to see a guy with deep eyes tapping me on the shoulder. Why was I so disappointed? He was pretty cute. Not as cute as the other guy though... Oh shut up!
"Oh no, it doesn't matter I can handle it," I giggled before the wheel of my case got stuck on a stone, and I fell over landing on my front on the floor. Oh great. That's the best thing that could have happened. At least it made him laugh, and I had to give in to his offer of carrying my case for me.
"I'm ," he grinned at me, as I replied, "".
"I heard you saying you were on Coach 3 earlier?" First he was offering to pull my case, next he's listening to our conversations, who is this guy, my stalker?
"Uhhh yeah. I'm going to the Sunset Beach Hotel," Why did I tell him my hotel? Oh God. Now he really will be my stalker.
"Really? Me too!" Oh good lord. He pushed my case into the storage in the coach and told me he was going to catch up with his mates. raised an eyebrow at me but I gave her the "not a chance" look. She knew me too well and shook her head as we both walked up the steps and onto the coach.
"OhMyGod it's them!!" she said a bit too loudly, as I caught the cute guy's eye again. I looked down at my feet to hide my glowing cheeks and followed quickly to two seats she'd found. Guess where? You got it, across from the stalkery man, who was also sat with a quite nice looking guy and sat behind the two cute ones that we'd seen at the carousel. I zipped open my grafftied backpack and took out my iPod and turned it up to full. My new headphones were pretty good and I tapped my foot to the music as the coach headed off to the hotel. I mouthed the words to All The Small Things by blink-182 and was getting quite into it when punched me hard on the arm. I turned to see her mouthing something so I removed one headphone.
"What?!" I sighed, annoyed that I had to pause my music.
"It's a bit, um, loud. Theres no need to share the lovely voice of Tom Delonge with the whole coach, " smirked as an old grumpy looking man infront of us gave me a glare through the crack of the seats before turning back again and putting his straw hat over his head and tried to sleep.
"What happened to the music? I was enjoying that!" OMG it was the cute guy who was perched on his seat searching for where the music had come from. I pressed play again to see him and the headbanging and playing their airguitars while mouthing the words. and the guy next to him joined in and they all laughed together. Wait... knew them guys?
After around 20 minutes I got bored of my iPod, and turned to see talking to , "Well, we've been writing songs and working for around 8 months non-stop so they let us take some time off," was nodding and smiling, but I could see her eyes drifting over to the seats in front everytime looked away.
"! Welcome back to Earth," she winked at me and gestured over to , "They're a band and they've just been signed by Universal!" she mouthed. Wow, impressive! I wouldn't mind a popstar boyfriend...
turned back to and I leaned forward so I could join in the conversation, "Oh, hi ," smiled at me before turning back to , "We've basically put all our money into the band, so we haven't actually booked the hotel, we're just hoping that theres a couple of rooms left." The coach came to a stop as we looked through the window to see the lobby of our hotel and the rep announce that we had arrived. Me, , and the other three guys got off the coach and went to the boot to collect our suitcases. I struggled with my case before the cute guy tapped me on the shoulder. Whatever you do, don't gawp and stare at him, I ordered myself, but I found myself doing it anyway, he gave me a sort of half smile and said, "Here, let me get that for you." "Humhum" I managed to force out of myself, still gawping at him like a goldfish. I lifted my hand up to my chin and pushed it shut before giggled. I shot her a glare and she tried to pull a serious face. He grabbed the case and put it down next to me, and our eyes met for a few seconds, which seemed like minutes. His eyes were such a deep shade of ... "I'm ," he grinned. "," I replied. "Are we going to check in then, or just stand here all day?" laughed as joined the guys and me and followed them. "The haired one is called , and the other one's called ," whispered to me before winking, " likes you. He wouldn't stop asking questions about you on the coach." "Well... he's okay I guess..." I looked up to see laughing with . He was a pretty cute guy, but was 10 times hotter. "But you like more," smirked to herself as if she knew exactly what I was thinking.
So, after making our way through the glass doors, into the hotel lobby and through a long queue which lasted half an hour, we finally all got to the check-in desk. The guys let us go first.
"As we're full up, your in luck! You've got the presidental suite." the man at the desk handed us our keys and we stepped aside. "Have you got any rooms with four beds?" asked, but the man shook his head.
"We're all out of rooms. Those girls took the last one," All four of them turned round and looked at us. "Oh, charming," laughed, folding his arms. They all shrugged it off and went outside to get a taxi, except from , who just stood there looking a bit annoyed which noticed, "Dude, you okay? You look a bit... umm... miffed?" just let out a grumble and turned his back to me and . I frowned, "We're sorry, we didn't know that we were going to get the last room, did we ?" I waited for an answer but I didn't get a reply, "?" I turned to look to where she was stood a second ago and saw her back at the hotel desk.
"And how many beds does the presidental suite have? Thanks," she came skipping back with a smile on her face, "How about you guys come and stay in our presidental suite? The man at the desk said that all the hotels near here are full and the only one with a few spare rooms is the one star hotel around the corner which apparently smells a bit cheesy. Well I think he meant cheesy." sighed and rolled his eyes and we left the four to talk. "Jeez, I don't know whats up with . He's in a bit of a huff about us getting the last room," I whispered to and she agreed, "I noticed! He was being really moody like we'd spoilt their holiday, but he was all over you when he got of the coach," I nodded. "Oh well. Maybe he'll come round when he gets to the room," I shrugged.
"How many beds is there in this presidental suite?" raised his eyebrows. Ha! The pervert. "Umm, two king size..." mumbled, but strangely they all nodded like it was a good thing, "Three in each bed, or we could take turns to sleep on the sofa and ask for some extra bedding..." Now it was my turn to raise my eyebrows. "You sure? I thought this was supposed to be your "relaxing" holiday, not your "lets sleep on the most uncomfortable place" holiday," What was I on about? I think they all thought the same thing as they all looked at me like I was from Planet Zorg. "Eh?" frowned and they all looked at each other like they were all extremely confused which sent me and into a giggling fit. was the only one not laughing. He slumped behind the rest of us and dragged back with him. , , and me just carried on skipping down the corridors and up to the 12th floor where we would be staying. We were staying in room 1224, and after a long time of skipping in and out of lifts ( got confused which button to press as he said it was all in Spanish even though each floor had a number, so he panicked and pressed them all) we found our room and collapsed on the beds. There were a dining area, lounge, kitchen, three bathrooms, a large balcony and two bedrooms. Each bedroom had it's own TV and stereo system.
"I think I might grow to like this place..." I smirked as jumped on the bed I was laying on and said in a childish voice "Me... tooooooo..." but then was cut off as his foot slipped and he ended up landing flat on his face in all of the pillows. He raised his hand in the air, "It's okay, you don't need to help me!" I grabbed his hand and yoinked him up. "Awww poor !" I patted his hair but he ruffled it back up again. "Nooo! Don't touch the hair!" and he got a pillow and wacked my head sending my hair into electocuted mode. You know when you rub a balloon on your head and your hair sticks on end? Well mine was doing that, but a knotted up version. We ran around the room yelling and at one bit using the pillows as swords (yeah, don't even go there) and the others were clapping and cheering us along before I heard mumble, "I'm going for a walk," and leave the room. Noone seemed to notice, but I stopped wacking in the ear with my pillow. "! Stop! !" I yelled inbetween getting hit with the pillow. He stopped. "Eh...? Is this a trick to make me vunerable?!" scratched his head and looked around, "Wait... where the hell is ?" Everyone stopped cheering and looked around and called his name as if he was a little kid who'd got lost. "I heard him say he was going for a walk or something," the others looked at each other and frowned, but stared at his feet. "Are you sure? It's not like to be all serious and going for a walkyish. Are you sure he didn't say "I'm a bit of a dork" and went to pee or something?" looked really gormlessly and scratched his chin. We couldn't help but laugh. "Just leave him, he'll come back in his own time," smiled, "Now... where were we? Oh yeah, I was about to make your hair messy again, it's losing it's electricityness," hit my hair again just after it was settling down making it massive again. "!"
"Where the hell is ?! He's been gone for 2 and a half hours!" yelled from the bathroom while running his fingers through his hair.
"I've got no idea, dude. It wouldn't be... you know... her, would it?" stopped spinning round on the desk chair holding his head and watching 's facial expression through the bathroom door. frowned.
"Well, it shouldn't be. It was a month ago, and he's not usually upset about girls. He was the one who wanted to get rid of her anyway," yelled, making me and stop unpacking our clothes and peek our heads round the door, "What?" we both said, simultaneously.
"Well... that's the only thing that could upset him. I mean, nothing else bad has happened with him," got a glass out of the cupboard and poured himself some water.
"Where's ?" I asked, making and both pause and then look around.
"Yeah... where IS ?" asked, so now his head was peeking around the door frame to.
"Oh God, not another one missing. Are we actually going to have some dinner tonight or not?" was rubbing his stomach and pouting.
"You and your bloody stomach!" laughed, going back to running his fingers through his hair.
"I'll go and look for them. I've finished unpacking all my stuff anyway," I jumped over all the piles of screwed-up clothes that were dumped on the floor and grabbed a key before looking through the window next to the staircase which overlooked the pool. I saw 's white baseball cap and 's green t-shirt and made my way to the lift and down the stairs.
"Oww dude... this holidays supposed to be about you relaxing, not about trying to hide your feelings!" I stopped behind a wall as I overheard 's soothing voice.
"I know, but I just want a rest for a bit. I'm fed up of trying to get away from everything and then a girl comes along and boom! falls into it all again. I mean, every relationship has to end, and then when it does, I feel like my worlds falling apart and I don't want that when I'm trying to do my job," 's voice sounded tense and slightly higher than normal.
"Come on, man. Just forget about it. Imagine that every girl, is secretly a dude in a costume. Seriously. It always works for me," laughed and let out a quiet chuckle. I thought it was time to make an appearance. I acted as if I hadn't seen them and walked straight on, looking around corners, and then shrugged and acted like I was about to walk back to the room before I saw them, both laughing at me.
"Where've ya been? Our stomachs are protesting for food here!" I couldn't look at in the same way now, and when I did, he didn't look as appealing as before. He seemed younger, and those eyes didn't seem as deep anymore.
We made our way up to the room again where was sat cross legged facing the door, "JUST LET ME IN! I PROMISE, I'LL NEVER TOUCH MR. SQIGGLES AGAIN!" he was yelling and banging his fist on the door before he turned around to see us three looking confused, "I found 's monkey, Mr. Squiggles and tried to make him fly through the air, but he got stuck on the lamp and his eye sorta fell off," he looked at the floor shamefully, and then added, "Not a real monkey, a stuffed one,"
"Yeah, I think we gathered that," laughed before opened the door and pointed his finger at , "You are a VERY naughty boy. Next time, you'll have to sit in the corner for the rest of the evening... Oh hello! Please, do come in," he was stroking his monkey and talking to us in a posh voice with his hands on his hips.
"Your wish is my command, Mr. Sqiggles," I saluted to the monkey and we made our way inside sniggering as put Mr. Squiggles in a bed and patted his head. "What?!" cried, pretending to be offended.
"Okay, are we all ready then?" asked. "Ready for what?" appeared with some straighteners in her hand. "We are going to eat tonight, aren't we?" joined us rubbing his sore hand. "Yeah but, do you want us to come with you?" I asked. "Of course! Your our best buddies forever nowww!!" screamed in a childish voice and gave me a big hug before all of the others joined in - except for who just pretended he needed the toilet and walked off scuffing his shoes on the carpet.
"Table for six, follow me," a gorgeous waiter gave me a smile before looking from my pink stiletto heels, past my polka dot skirt and my pink low-cut top and up to meet my eyes. I was regretting letting do the holiday shopping and making me wear it, as every guy we'd past to far was gawping down my top. I pulled at the neckline and smoothed down my skirt before sitting on the far end of a long table. sat down next to me, sat across from me, sat next to and sat at the far end, as far away as possible. I told myself that it didn't bother me, but deep down inside, I felt a sting of offence. I looked outside where I could see the sun setting in the sky and the sea softly rippling onto the golden-white sand. My mind immediately imagined a romantic picnic in the orange glow of the sun, but I shook it quickly from my head as passed me a menu and for the first time that evening, looked at me in the eyes and smiled. I felt a shiver roll down my spine as I smiled back into his gleaming eyes, before , who was along with all the others sat waiting for us to order including the waiter, coughed. We blushed as read a meal, and I searched quickly through the menu and picking the first dish I recognised.
I looked back out to sea while the others chatted about where they would go tonight, and I tried to figure out what had just happened. Did I like ? He did have a really cute look about him and was totally sweet. He was my type too, but then again, so were the rest of the guys. I'd been told by that he liked me and that he wasn't one of them guys that would just mess around with girls. Why not give it a go? He was much cuter than anyone I'd dated in the past. I convinced myself to try it, and that I'd try and talk to him more instead of thinking about .
"This beach is so beautiful," I heard a murmur from behind me and I saw , leaning over looking into the ocean, just like I had been doing. "Mmm hmm," I agreed, now moving back slightly so he could see better.
"The waiter said that our meal would be about an hours wait because it's so busy. Do you wanna go for a walk?" He looked up at me through his deep eyes, and I couldn't resist. I agreed and we left the rest of them to raise their eyebrows at 's hand slowly crawling into mine. I slid off my shoes and held them in one hand while and I walked along the sand, picking up shells and examining them. After around ten minutes, we sat down on the soft sand and looked up as the sun was disappearing over the horizon. It felt as if we both knew how each other felt, but didn't know where to start. I decided to say something.
"I love Spain," What? I love Spain?! Is that the best you could come up with, brain? chuckled, "Yeah, so do I," before shuffling towards me slightly. There was a pause before he said, "I'm sorry about by the way... I've got no idea what's up with him," "It's okay, it's not your fault," I looked up at him and smiled before he surprisingly put his arm round me as I leant in towards him. He took my chin in his other hand and bent his head over to kiss me. "Foods ready," we heard a mumble behind us, and we turned around to see , drawing shapes in the sand with the side of his trainer before walking away. I grabbed 's hands as he pulled me up. He walked slightly behind me and suddenly started wiping my bum. "! WHAT ARE YOU DOINGGG!" I snorted as I looked around to see with a handful of sand. "You had sand on your bum!" He retorted, putting his hands in the air with innocence. "Yeah, sure ," I winked at him before he jogged up to me so he was beside me and grabbed onto my spare hand. I saw glance over his shoulder quickly when he heard me shouting, but he soon looked back towards his trainers which were scuffing the sand, like when he was in the hotel room.
I tumbled down the steps and out into the pavement in the warm Spanish heat and wrapped his arms around my waist. "I love you, . Let's get married and have a baby!" I giggled and slid my arms around his neck and gave him sloppy kisses all over his cheeks and finally planting one on his lips. "Dude, what did they give her?!" raised his eyebrows as me and laughed. "I dunno but that shot must have been pretty strong for her to love ," gave an evil glare and rubbed his hand on my side, "Uh... not just yet, kay?"
I pouted and tried to walk backwards but the heel of my stiletto snapped and I fell backwards onto the pavement. immediately ran to catch me, and grabbed me just before I hit the concrete. I wrapped my arms around his neck, studying his eyes, "You saved my life! , are you Superman?" A crease appeared on my forehead. I was so drunk, I really wasn't sure whether he was Superman or not. Suddenly he looked away from me and unravelled my arms from being draped around his neck and dropped me onto the floor, "! Don't drop me! Owww I hurt my knee!" he spun around and noticed that my knee was perfectly fine and left to crouch next to me on the floor surveying my knee. "Cheap slut," he mumbled under his breath, but heard him.
"What was that, ?" grabbed my hand and I cowered behind him. and started arguing and gave a hard punch. looked slightly startled, blood dripping from his nose and automatically tried to punch back, but he missed and I felt a sharp pain shoot through my face.
"You prat! Look what you've fucking done now!" yelled as the others kneeled around me. I heard a faint "Oh god, oh god, oh god, oh god," from as she bit her lip and I saw just standing there with his fist still in the air with his mouth slightly open and my sight faded into black.
My eyes flickered open and a sharp pain shot through my head and through my eye. I rolled over rubbing my sore head to come face to face with , "How you feeling gorgeous?" He gave a sympathetic smile as I stretched and sat up. I caught sight of myself in the mirror and had to take a double take. The whole of the right side of my face was swollen and bruised especially my eye, which was black. Suddenly, the memories of what had happened hit me, "What time is it?" I croaked and looked at the clock. "It's 10am. You slept all the way through the night," he smiled and I realised I was in my pyjamas... ...? I looked from myself and back to and he spluttered out a laugh, " did it, not me. Your still wearing underwear don't worry. You were out cold," he ran a finger down the side of my face and then kissed the left side of my forehead, "the others are by the pool, I'll stay here with you if you don't feel up to going out, I don't mind," he was so caring, but I knew I couldn't let him stay in with me, so I pushed him out of the apartment. I walked out onto the balcony and saw all the guys and playing beach ball in the pool - except for who was sat in his shorts with his knees hugged to his chest watching them. He looked hopefully at , but he ignored him and jumped into the pool.
We were all out of coke, so I got changed and shoved on some flip-flops that were in the corner of the bedroom and headed for the door, only just remembering the key that was on the side, and walked down the corridor, leaving the door to shut behind me. The metal lift doors squeaked open and I looked up to be met with 's face which he was rubbing with his hands. He opened his mouth to say something, but just stared at my eye.
"Something wrong?" I snapped and gave him a meaningful look, which made him actually look me in the eye instead of staring. He shook his head and ran his fingers through his hair while looking at the floor, "... I... I'm sorry, I didn't..." he stuttered. "I don't want to know . What could you care about a cheap slut anyway?" I walked out of the lift and he jogged behind me then suddenly grabbed my hand and pulled me back into a tight hug. What was he doing? My arms just hung by my sides as I inhaled his sweet smell and his bare chest clung to my hands, warm and sticky from the heat. I gave in and wrapped my arms around him, and I swear I felt a spark click from his skin to mine. "I'm sorry... so sorry..." he whispered into my hair while softly stroking my back. He pulled away, holding me at arms length and studying my face. He gently pushed back some of my hair that was hanging over my face and stroked the side of my face. I was taken in by his gorgeous deep eyes which were slightly watery and then I shook myself and came back to reality. "Coke... I need to get a bottle of coke from the shop..." I looked around me trying to avoid his gaze, but he'd got hold of my hand. He dropped his hand to his side, slowly unhooking my grip. "Shit man, I can't do this... you're 's girlfriend..." He scratched the back of his neck as I gulped and we just sort of wondered off and went our separate ways.
I hobbled upstairs carrying some bottles of coke, a couple of magazines and a chocolate bar and dumped myself back on the couch in front of the TV. I heard some shuffling around in my bedroom, so I looked over my shoulder, but the door was closed. I crept to the door and turned the door knob as silent as possible. I peeked through the door to see sitting on my bed staring at the floor. What was he doing? "?" I opened the door fully and went to sit next to him on the bed. "What's up?" I frowned. He looked up, and looked deep into my eyes before forcing an uneasy smile, "Nothing, just got a bit of a headache," he studied my face again before looking back to the floor and standing up and walking through to the balcony. I followed him and leaned over the railings, following his gaze to where the guys were messing about in the pool. "I've ruined everything before the bands even started, haven't I?" he mumbled. I squeezed his hand, "course you haven't. I'll have a word with about things. Everyone makes mistakes."
He looked over at me and stuttered, "But I... I called you a... a... you know... don't you think that I'm a bit of a twat?"
"Well, yeah, it did hurt me quite a bit, but I've said some things I regret. Everyone does. I'm gonna forgive and forget," I laughed and pulled him up into a hug.
"And your eye... I've ruined your holiday," he whispered into my ear.
"Shhhh, it'll go down in a few days. Accidents happen. C'mon, I'll get changed and we can go in the pool for a bit before it gets cool," he grinned at me, which made me tingle like mad inside, but blocked it out and thought about .
The next few days went by pretty quickly, we sat around the pool and messed about. and I were getting on really well, and we were pretty good friends. It was half way through the holiday and had taken me out to a restaurant on my own where there tables were set out on the beach. He held my hand across the table and he was telling me about the band, "So you said likes blink-182?" I grinned. They were one of my favourite bands. "Uhmm... yeah. Do you?" he laughed awkwardly as I picked out of the story for the 6th time. Then the penny dropped. "Do you like or something?" he looked confused as I nodded. "Yeah, he's pretty cool," I smiled before shaking the image of him out of my head and realising who I was talking to, "You know, he reminds me of one of my good friends I had at high school," it seemed to convince him, and he went back to telling the story about the band. When we'd finished our meal, texted the other guys and we met back up at a nightclub. As we walked in, holding hands, I noticed and looking pretty cosy on the dance floor, being surrounded by around four girls, looking pretty pleased with himself. was stood at the bar on his own, just finishing off the last of his drink and gormlessly ordering another. He looked around and saw me and and squinted before smiling and lazily waving his hand at us. "Uhh... hi guysss" he slurred as I wrinkled my nose at the smell of alcohol that wafted from him.
"Dude, you okay?" laughed quickly removing his arm from my waist to push back onto his stool as he rocked back and forth. He waved his hand dismissively, "Yeah yeah..." gave me an uncertain look.
"I'm just gonna go to the toilet. Would you be okay keeping an eye on or shall I go fetch or someone?" I shook my head and gestured for him to go as I pulled up a seat next to . "Do ya like beer?" asked, lifting his glass. "Uhh... no I'm alright I'll get myself a coke," I smiled at him, but he ordered it for me anyway. was ages in the toilet, and the last I remembered was leaning over to catch me as I swayed on my stool.
's strong arms were wrapped around me from behind and I smiled, resting my hands on his after pulling the cover down from my eyes. For the second time, I woke up and was unaware of what had happened the night before. His hands were so soft... I'd never noticed before. His arms wriggled a bit and a soft chuckle came from behind me. "I didn't know you were ticklish ," I giggled, gently walking my fingers up and down his arms. "!!" I froze. That wasn't 's voice... "...?" I turned around to be face to face with a shocked looking . "How did we..." he looked down under the covers, "I'm in my boxers... and your in your underwear..." he frowned, "I swear I didn't go to bed like this last night..." his eyes widened as I still stared at him with the same stunned face. I grabbed my clothes that were lying on the floor and shoved them on.
"You didn't see ANYTHING. Yeah?" he nodded wildly before I pulled up my jeans and a sparkle caught my eye. I looked at my finger and saw a glittering ring shining at me. It looked really expensive and was gold with a large diamond. I turned around to see still sat up in bed staring at me. "Did I miss something?" I frowned. He put his hands up.
"What the hell is that on your finger?" he pointed at it, as I shrugged before my mouth dropped open.
"This... This is... This is on my wedding finger...?" I looked up to be met with a pink piece of paper on the bedside table. I grabbed it, as watched me intently. I looked up at and handed him the pink paper and nodded, confirming what had happened. After he'd read it, I scanned over it again while it was lying on the bed covers and sat down next to him. It read :
&
Conjoined in the ceremony of marriage at the Quikky Marriage Reception.
", this is not funny," I looked back up and he was sat next to me. He looked down at the certificate I was holding and put his arm around my shoulders.
"What we gonna do?" he mumbled, now noticing the reality of this whole thing.
"Well I doubt we can get a divorce here," I sighed. I thought my wedding would be better than this. "But I don't remember anything!" I put my head in my hands and sobbed.
"Shhh... look, maybe the waiter gave us something stronger than we'd asked for or someone spiked our drinks or something. I don't remember anything either... we'll sort this out. I promise,"
I walked out of the bedroom door and closed the door behind me. As I turned around, I saw three faces staring at me, sat on the sofa. got up and shook her head.
"I never thought you'd cheat on someone, . I didn't think you were that sort of person," she walked off as I opened my mouth to say something, but nothing came out. and glared at me as I looked over to them.
"Whe... where's ?" I sighed.
"He's out on the balcony. I don't think he wants to talk to you," muttered, but I walked over to the sliding doors. was leaning on the railings looking up at the sky. I stood next to him, trying to find the words in my head. I was going to start with the "it didn't mean anything, someone spiked our drinks" story, but then I thought : what's the point? I'd just be leading him on again, and if anything did happen between me and , it would break his heart all over again. I guess I should come clean... but before I tried to speak, got in first.
"I knew from the start that it was him, not me. I saw you staring at him from the other side of the carousel at the airport. That look in your eye and the way your eyes met when he got your suitcase off the coach," he was still looking at the same spot in the sky. I sighed.
"I know it doesn't make anything better but, neither of us knew what we were doing. Someone must have spiked our drinks and... well... I guess this proves it," I put my hand out and the ring shimmered making look at it.
"Is this some kind of joke?" he gave me a disgusted look.
"Why would I joke? There's a certificate too. Do you really think we'd get married if we knew what we were doing?" he looked at me in the eye, then he believed me.
"I thought it was a bit odd. I guess I forgive you..." was about to kiss me when walked out onto the balcony and put his arms round me from behind. walked off sighing heavily.
", what the hell are you playing at?" I turned around.
"Do you think I could take you somewhere?" he said to me.
"... I think I really need to talk to right now. He saw us. Everyone saw us. He was just about to forgive me before you got here," I folded my arms.
"I think this is more important," and before I could say anything, he grabbed my arm with a tight grip and took me out of the hotel room, down in the lift and outside the hotel.
" where are you taking me?" I asked, but he just smiled at me, which made my heart skip a beat. He was holding my hand now, which made butterflies flutter around in my stomach at the feel of his skin touching mine. We walked along the seafront and with our bare feet in the edge of the sea, still not saying a thing to each other, just holding hands. Then, we got to the end of the beach, and started climbing some rocks that were sticking out of the sea.
", where are we going?" I asked again, but he sat down at the edge of the group of rocks and patted the spot next to him. I stumbled down and looked out to the horizon.
"You know, as soon as I saw you at the airport, I knew," he said, as we both sat looking out to sea, the sound of the waves rippling against the rocks caressed our ears.
"Knew what?" I said, turning to look at him.
"This is going to sound crazy but... I guess I feel like you're the one," he chuckled to himself. I stared at him. The one? "I knew you'd think I was crazy. Forget what I said," he said, as he saw me staring at him. "I think deserves you more, anyway. The way he's taken care of you through everything,"
"No," I blurted out. I don't know why I said it, cause it didn't really cross my mind. It just came out. People say that when you've found the one, you can't imagine your life without them. Could imagine his life without me? "I mean, I can't be the one. , you hardly know me, we've hardly even spoke."
We faced each other, and I looked at his facial features. I tried to find something that I didn't like about him, but I just couldn't.
"I'm boiling," he said, interrupting the silence and took off his top. He laughed as I licked my lips, "Hungry?"
"No, I mean, I didn't mean to..." I stuttered as he laughed, making his whole face crease up. He was so gorgeous. He suddenly jumped on me so I was laying down on the rock and started making eating noises like he was eating me. I laughed as he yelled, "Well I'm definitely hungry," in a deep voice and tickled me.
"!" I giggled, but then felt some kisses run up my neck and then up to my lips... they were so soft... then he stopped.
"Shit..."
I sat up and turned around, 's arms still wrapped around my waist, and saw 's eyes which brimmed with tears. He had some flowers in one of his hands, but he stood lifeless, just staring at me which gave me an awful feeling of guilt shoot me through my heart.
"... I..." I stuttered, but he dropped the flowers on the sand and walked off. I looked back at , and he was also sat up, holding his head in his hands.
"I've messed everything up again," a muffed voice came from beneath his hair and hands. I leaned into him and cuddled him, stroking his hair.
"It's not your fault, . We can't help how we feel," I whispered into his ear, and he took his hands away from his face and slid his fingers around my waist and rested them on my back. We cuddled for around ten minutes before letting go.
"Do you think we should go back to the hotel?" I asked him, looking into his eyes.
"Yeah, I guess we better face the music," he smiled at me, before we got up and he slipped his hand into mine.
I opened the apartment door with my spare hand and then closed it gently behind him. came and stepped in front of us.
"You don't know where is, do you?" he looked from then to me.
"Err..." looked at me, and I nodded, "the last time I saw him was on the beach. He saw... me and ," looked at his shoes. I saw on the sofa, looking out of the window.
"You go look for ... please ?" I smiled at him and he hesitated before giving me a hug and walked back out of the door where and followed. I walked over to the sofa, ", do you think we could talk?"
Her face looked disgusted, but she saw my serious face, and patted the spare place next to her. I sat down, and she suddenly wrapped her arms around me and squeezed me. "Oh , what are you doing? You're acting so stupid," she cried.
", I know what I'm doing, and I'm not just playing with everyone. You probably wouldn't believe the truth if I told you," I sighed, sitting back up and glancing at the ring that was still on my finger.
"Who bought you that?" she frowned, noticing the sparking on my finger.
"I don't think anyone's sure. probably bought it, but he doesn't remember," I laughed at how weird it sounded.
"Come on, who bought it you? It looks expensive. You've got it on the wrong finger though," she laughed too.
"I'm not joking, we don't know. Do you remember where we went after the club last night?" I asked. frowned.
"Nope. I remember you and were laughing on the bar stools, nearly falling off them cause you were both drunk. We left you after that cause we were tired, and you said you were going to go to some other places and that you'd make your own way back, why?"
"It's just, neither of us remember that... and when we woke up this morning, we both didn't know how we ended up there... or how we ended up getting married," I sighed.
"Oh for God's sake! I thought you were going to actually talk about this seriously, not make up stupid stories. I'm not fooling around, - and you and shouldn't be either. You're playing with people's emotions," she looked really angry with me, so I grabbed her wrist and dragged her into the bedroom.
"Look - our wedding certificate. This is REAL. Look it has all our details - everything. , I swear I am not joking," I shoved the certificate at her, and she looked shocked as I sat on the bed and cried. She sat next to me and hugged me.
"Oh ... I don't know what to say... but you and ? I thought you really liked ?" she sounded confused.
"I did, but I didn't like him as much as ... I've never liked anyone as much as . He just seems so perfect. Every time I was with , I felt like it was all wrong and that it should have been . And today when we were at the beach... he told me he thought I was the one."
"Really?" asked and I nodded. "I'm so sorry I've been acting up all day. I guess I just had to know how you feel to actually understand," she smiled and I hugged her. Then we heard the front door open.
"Dude, you should have said before," said, looking ashamed with himself.
"I just didn't want to sound like an idiot, you guys would have taken the piss out of me," laughed. He saw me looking confused and gave me a dorkish grin and the thumbs up.
"That was quick," said, heading over to and kissing him on the cheek.
"What the... I'm so confused! When and how did everything happen?" I said, looking from and to and and then finally to .
"That's nothing, I caught them making out earlier," giggled like a little kid as gave him a playful slap on the arm.
"! I told you not to say anything!" said under his breath making us all laugh.
", can we talk?" said, grabbing my hand and leading me to the balcony. "I'm sorry if I seemed to be off with you. Like I said here before, I could see you falling for him at the airport. I have no idea what got into me at the beach, I really like you but I know that loves you and that'll be more than I can ever give. Friendly hug?" he said quickly, opening his arms. I grinned and accepted the hug, swaying on the spot with him.
"Thanks so much for understanding, ," I smiled. He kissed me on the forehead.
"No probs, just remember, if you ever have any problems, come to me. I'll be here for you. You'll have to come round and stay at our house when we get home!" grinned back and I nodded. We turned around to see everyone stood with their faces up against the glass door pulling faces making us all laugh when , who was stood on a stool at the back, fell over and - who was at the front - was squashed against the window making a very amusing face. We opened the door and they all fell out.
"Do you mind? Serves you right for spying," I smiled as they all picked themselves up and dusted themselves down from the dusty concrete floor. looked at me as if asking if we'd got permission and I smiled making a very happy look appear on his face. He jumped up and snaked his arms around my waist, hugging mine to his.
"Alright?" he whispered in my ear.
"Yeah, everything's sorted," I whispered back.
"S'cuse me for interrupting, but can we please go down to the beach? I'm craving some sun instead of being locked in here or searching!" said as the other guys agreed.
"I've got the beach bags ready," said, jumping up from the place where she had been stuck on the floor.
"Go go go!" yelled, grabbing the beach bags and lilos and running to the door leaving everyone trailing behind carrying their own belongings.
The bump awoke me with a jolt and I looked around at the unfamiliar cramped space around me. I heard laughter erupt and I put my head under the blanket, not wanting to be disturbed.
A head joined me under the blanket, "come on gorgeous, we've got to get up in a sec," it breathed. I wanted to just stay there with that warmth next to me and put off the inevitable, but it slowly took the blanket from over my head and I felt soft lips touch my cheek which automatically ordered my mouth to grin. I opened my eyes and was greeted by some sparkling eyes looking back at me. How did I deserve this special view?!
"This is the captain speaking, thank you for boarding with us today, I hope you have a safe journey home..." I heard everyone cringe as the speakers boomed, looking around most other people had slept too, except from the McFly boys who were currently fidgeting and giggling like 10 year olds. By the looks of it, a food fight had gone on. and I were sat together on the two seats nearest the window, but was sat next to , and looking half dead with mushy peas in her hair in the four middle seats. I stretched and stood up after the plane came to a stop. I felt two muscular arms secure around my waist, but none of this cheered me up.
At the carousel, picked up my suitcase and launched it onto the trolley I was holding. He paused and looked at me, "are you going to tell me what's up?" he sighed. I shook my head. He came over to me and lifted up my chin gently to look at him, "please?" I sighed. I couldn't resist that.
"I suppose I'm going to miss you, that's all. I mean am I even going to see you again?" I mumbled, not wanting to admit it.
"Well I was going to ask if you wanted to stay at ours for a bit actually. I mean I know the idea of living with four guys isn't really brilliant but I know 's asking too..." he said seriously and I hooked my hands around his neck and kissed him. LIVING with him?! "I'm guessing that's a yes then?" he laughed.
"Of course!" I giggled and gave him a squeezing hug, breathing in the smell of his hoodie deeply.
"Seriously guys, STOP IT!" yelled, looking like she hadn't slept for days. The guys were all arguing over what CD to have on in the car. As McFly were a signed band, they got their own taxi service with a big seven seater and a driver. The driver rolled his eyes as if this was typical.
"How do you put up with this every day?" I asked him.
"Believe me, this is when they're tired. I've had two weeks off from them, wait until they're wide awake!" he chuckled.
We finally got to the McFly house, or should I say mansion? It was massive! The McFly guys laughed at the gasps that and I let out and led us inside. As it was 4am, we decided to go to bed.
"And please, at least try to be quiet? I need my beauty sleep!" said in a mocking girly voice and rolled his eyes as me and slipped into his room.
"What's he on about?" raised his eyebrows at me.
"No idea, I just want to sleep," I groaned seriously and collapsed onto the bed fully clothed.
He sighed, "come on, the heatings not on so you can borrow one of my hoodies. I'm not unpacking your suitcase right now."
He grabbed a hoodie from his wardrobe and handed it to me with a pair of boxers, I waddled over to the en-suite bathroom and got changed.
The smell of his scent and warmth around my body instantly hit me as I put it on. I smiled at a rubber duck that was left in the bath. Typical. Then I caught sight of myself in the mirror with 's checked boxers on and I burst out laughing. They were massive and came down to my knees. I heard a bang.
"I told you two to be quiet!" I heard a grumble from which only made me giggle more. I opened the door to see in a pair of boxer shorts curled up in bed fast asleep and I curled up beside him, a perfect fit. He mumbled to himself in his sleep and put his arms around me. I sighed happily. I could stay like this forever...
The End :)
