Chapter 38

We search all over the room and we still can't find her. Where the hell could she be?

"Could she be outside?" Austin asks

"I don't know, I'll check around the elevators and how about you check outside" I say

Soon Austin walks out the door to outside and I walk to the elevators. The elevators are by the bathrooms so she might be there. I hear a laugh that sounds exactly like Alex. I soon see her with a glass of champagne talking on the phone.

"Yes he is in town but he doesn't want to see you" she slurs into the phone

"I can do whatever the fuck I want" she slurs again

"Yes, I still have my cast on"

"I'm hanging up now"

Her bloodshot eyes meet with mine and she smiles and walks to me.

"Niall!" she giggles and wraps her arms around my neck

She soon plants a kiss on my lips and I can practically taste the alcohol that she's been drinking.

"Who was that?" I ask

"My mom" she slurs and rolls her eyes

"Your dad wants to see you" I say

"Why" she whines

"I don't know but lets get you cleaned up" I say and grab her hand

I take her into the woman's bathroom because I surely don't want another man looking at her there. She's mine. We enter the bathroom and I grab a paper towel and wet it. I wipe the mascara that has gotten messed up and I splash cold water on her face.

"I have a headache" she whines

"I'll get you some asprin" I say and lead her out of the bathroom

We go to the gift shop where they have asprin and I buy her a coke and asprin. She takes it and we begin to walk down the hallway to the ballroom. Soon Austin is running up towards us.

"You found her!" he says

"Yeah but she's slightly drunk" I say and look at Alex

Drunk or not she looks beautiful.

"Do you think he'll notice she's drunk?" I ask

"I don't know. We can only hope for the best" Austin huffs

We walk back into the ballroom and spot Mr. Carter. He soon makes eye contact with us and waves us over.

"Alex, Austin! I would like you guys to meet Mr. Wilson, one of our biggest buyers!" Mr. Carter says

Austin reaches his hand out to shake and Alex does the same but loses her balance.

They begin to chat for awhile and I just stand there awkwardly. Alex slurs a few words but nobody really notices it. I guess she sobers up good.

She soon walks away and grabs my hand and pulls me out of the room. We walk into the lobby and I'm about to ask her 'what's wrong?' but I'm interrupted by her crashing her lips onto mine. I can taste the alcohol on her tongue but it's faint. We kiss until we're out of breath and she smiles.

"I hate these dinner parties so much" she says and reattaches her lips to mine

"Why?" I ask

Yes, I've only been to probably only 2 and they aren't so bad but she has been to about a million times.

"So much stress. To impress people just so my dad can get more money. I'm so fucking tired of it" she says during the kiss

"When I go to college in the fall I won't have to worry about this shit" she says

I freeze. College? I knew that she was going to college but what are we going to do when she goes away? I've already decided I want to spend the rest of my life with her. Does she feel the same way? She probably does. We have enough time until she goes away and it's only March. Prom isn't even here. Or I don't think so. Alex hasn't told me anything about it. Is she going?

"What's wrong babe?" she asks

"Nothing" I say and kiss her hard

I hear someone cough behind us. It's Austin. I see Alex smirk. She would be blushing right now but this alcohol is giving her more confidence. Making out with me in public isn't what sober Alex is like.

But she is like that in bed...

"Well, I'm going back up to my room. See you guys tomorrow. Be safe" Austin mutters

I smirk and Alex laughs.

I quickly say bye to my dad and Alex practically drags me to her hotel room. She inserts the key and we walk in and she pushes me against the wall.

I like this. She should drink more champagne often. Just not as much.

"Being dominant I see?" I smirk

"You know it" she says and kisses me

She takes off my jackets and throws it on the chair. She soon wraps her arms around my neck and kisses my neck.

"Fucking hell" I moan

She smiles against my neck. Soon her phone starts to ring and she stops and grunts . She answers it and immediately there's an angry reaction on her face.

"Stop calling me mom.... We don't want to talk to you!.... Why do I still hate you? Your so stupid!... I'm ending this call..." she says into the phone

What the fuck.

"She has to ruin a good night! I was in the middle of something good with you and she calls! She fucking called, Niall! Asking dumbass questions! She's really stressing me out!" Alex says slightly loudly

"Baby, it's okay" I say and try to calm her down

"This isn't me. This isn't the angry Alex who gets mad and stresses out and does all this shit" she huffs

"Your just stressed" I say and rub circles against her back

I don't know what that woman did but I know that Alex is pissed and it gets her upset. Alex walks into the bathroom to get out of that dress and returns in a pair of spandex and a t-shirt

Soon there's a knock at the door. I'm guessing it's Austin but when I open the door it isn't Austin.

It's Mr. Carter.
