| Chapter 14 *The next morning* I woke up with a really bad hangover and couldn�t really remember that much of the evening. Just that there had been a bar, a dance floor and lots of drinks. �My head.� I muttered to myself. Just then I heard a light snoring next to me and I quickly looked. Nick! �Oh my god, how did he�? Did we�?� I asked, quickly checking myself. Oh good, I was wearing a T-shirt. Plus Nick was wearing a pair of boxers, so we possibly couldn�t have slept together? �Nick, wake up.� I whispered, gently touching his arm. He didn�t even stir. �Nick, wake up.� I said a little louder. �Hmm?� He asked as he opened his eyes. �Ann, oh my god! How the hell did you get in here?� He asked, shocked. �Uh, we�re in my hotel room, Nick. How the hell did you get in here?� I asked. �I don�t remember�� Nick said, scratching his head. �Well, me neither. And I�m still not sure whether the hell we did something or not.� I said. �Naw, I don�t think so. I would have remembered then.� Nick said with a smile. �Well, I don�t hope we did anything.� I said. �Why not?� Nick asked. �Because that would really suck. Ya know, sleeping with YOU and not being able to remember it.� I said, smiling. �Aaawwz, that�s so sweet� I think? Haha, kidding. Yeah, it would, �cause I�m the best, I�m number one, yeah, baby!� Nick said. �Full of yourself much?� I remarked. �Yep, that too.� Nick said as he smiled to me. *10 minutes later* I walked over to Daisy�s room to check on her. �Dais?� I whispered, lightly knocking on the door. No one answered, so I pushed the door open a little. Daisy was sleeping, so I decided not to wake her when I noticed a pair of feet sticking out by her head. �What the hell?� I thought to myself. I went over and quickly lifted the blanket by Daisy�s feet� and saw AJ�s head. �I dunno what the heck they�ve been doing and frankly I don�t think I wanna know either.� I said to myself, giggling, as I walked out. I walked back into my own room and got a shock as Nick was standing there with only a towel around his waist. �Nick, god dammit, don�t do that to me!� I cussed. �Uh, sorry for taking a shower.� He grinned. �Are you trying to kill me? First I nearly get a heart attack �cause we�re in bed together and now you do this. Tsk, tsk, tsk.� I said, shaking my head at him. �Hey, come on. You know you want a piece of this ass.� He said, as he started to shake his ass in front of me while laughing. �Nice ass, Carter, but no thanks.� I said, trying my best to keep my hands for myself. �You mean you feel nothing at all when I�m shaking this bootylicious booty for ya?� Nick asked. �Uhh� not really.� I lied. �Liar.� Nick said, smiling to me. �You got it.� I said, blushing. �Then why are you denying your feelings?� He asked, looking seriously at me as he ran his hand down my bare arm, which made me shiver. �I�m not. It�s just that� well, I just broke up with Ashley and everything. I know we weren�t together for very long, but I just don�t wanna jump from one relationship to another. I hope you can understand me. I mean� I don�t have a problem with us flirtin� or anything, I just don�t wanna go from Ashley to you, ya know? I really, really like you and I care for you a lot. I just think we should wait a while.� I said, looking at him. �Alright. Remember me by this.� Nick said as he bend his head down and softly kissed me. �I will.� I said, smiling up to him. *Even later* �Angel! Just the person I was looking for. Wanna go out to lunch with me?� Justin asked with a sweet smile as I met him in the hall. �Hey Justy. What�s up with the Angel-thing? And yeah, I�d love to.� I said and smiled. �The Angel-thing� well, umm� I just like calling you that, okay?� He said. �Hehe, fine by me. Come on in, I�m just gonna change.� I said, as I unlocked the door to my hotel room. �So what�s the deal with you and Nick?� Justin asked, as he sat down on the bed and I found a pair of clean jeans and top in my suitcase. �Nothing, we�re just friends.� I said, as I changed into the jeans. �Friends? Like you and me-friends?� Justin asked. I smiled. �Maybe a little more than friends like that, J. Why?� I asked, as I was changing my top. �Well, just wondering, �cause he came over to me this morning and we talked, ya know? But he wasn�t very willing to share that much.� Justin said. �Is it really any of your business anyway, J?� I asked, kissing his cheek and went over to check my hair in the mirror. �Well� yeah, it is!� Justin said. �And how so?� I asked, brushing my hair. ��Cause both you and Nick are my friends and I don�t want neither one of you to get hurt.� Justin said. �Justin, that was a bad excuse. Are you sure you�re not just jealous �cause you don�t have a girlfriend and you�re missing one, hmm?� I asked, smiling to him. �Well, that too.� He said. �So you see. Nick and I will figure things out, don�t you worry your pretty, little head. Now let�s go to lunch.� I said, grabbing my purse. Justin and I got back at the hotel around 2 PM and two minutes after they had to go to the studio to record. �I�ll see you later then, hun.� I said, hugging him bye. �You can come with us, if you�d like?� Justin asked. �Naw, it�s okay. I think I�ll just hang out with Daisy and the rest of the girls.� I said, smiling. �I see.� Justin said, looking down. �Hey, J, what�s up with that, huh? We will see each other when you get back.� I said. �You�re right. I�ll see ya then.� Justin said, kissing my cheek and then left. I walked over to Daisy�s room and knocked on the door. �Who is it?� She called. �It�s me, Brat.� I said. �Coming.� She replied. She opened and smiled to me. �Hi, come on in.� She said, letting the door open. �Well, thank you and what the hell has been going on in here with you and AJ?� I asked, grinning. �Oh, I have absolutely no idea what you�re talking about.� She said with an innocent smile. �Right, Dais, drop the act already, it�s not working. I peeked inhere this morning, his feet was by your head and vice versa. Um, what?� I said, sitting down in a chair and waiting for an explanation. �Well� uh� we started talking y�day� I don�t even think you noticed, �cause you were busy with Nick! Hahaha, but uh� so yeah, we clicked really well and when we�d taken a cab here he asked if he could come up and, well, I just couldn�t resist those beautiful eyes.� She said with a sigh as she sat down on her bed with a dreamy smile. �Whoa, someone is in love!� I laughed. �Am not.� She grinned. �Are too. Just look at you with that smile on ya face. You�re hit bad, girl!� I said, grinning. �Oh yeah, like you�d actually notice, since you�ve been so busy with Nick this and Nick that.� Daisy retorted with a smile. �Have not.� I said. �Have too! Don�t you think I saw you yesterday? All close and touchy-feely on the dance floor? I might have had some drinks, but there�s nothing wrong with my eyes.� She said with a snort. �Whatever.� I just said, smiling at her. �Yeah� waffa!� She said. I laughed. �What?� I said. �Waffa.� She replied again, smiling. �What exactly does that man?� I asked. ��Whatever�. It sounds really funny when you say it in Dutch.� She said. �Aight, hehehe. Anyway, wanna go shopping or something?� I asked. �Uh, well, Alex is supposed to come by in a bit, so�� She said, shrugging. �Ah, hate ya!� I joked, smiling. �Yeah, yeah, love you too, girl.� She said, grinning. �Hehe, thanks. So I will see you later?� I asked. �Yeah, sure. Ya wanna go out tonight?� She asked. �Yes, but no drinking! My head can�t take it. Meanwhile, I�ll go call my parents.� I said. �Hehe, ok, see ya tonight, girl.� She said. �Yep, see ya.� I said as I walked out. I walked back into my own hotel room and was just about to dial my parents� number when there was a knock on the door. I opened and outside was Nick. �Hey, hun, what brings you here?� I asked. �I was just wondering if you�d like to play with my joystick? I mean, play computer!!� Nick asked, shaking his head. �Your joystick? Sounds kinda suspicious, Carter.� I grinned as I lifted an eyebrow. �My bad. I meant if you want to play computer?� He asked, smiling. �Um, where?� I asked, confused. �Down in the lobby. You can rent a Play Station for an hour or more.� He said. �Really? That�s cool. Sure. But I warn you: I don�t think I�ll be very good at it, �cause I�ve never really tried it before. So if I�m lousy, I�m sorry.� I said. �It�s okay. I�ll teach you.� Nick said, smiling. �Well, let�s go then.� I said, smiling Story Index Next Chapter |
