Can I Have This Dance?

Chapter 8

I woke up to the sound of music still blasting from downstairs. I glanced at the clock beside my bed and say that the time was in fact four in the morning. I yawned and rolled out of the bed realising that I must have been tucked in last night.

My body started to somewhat tingle again and I flew out of bed. Since I was still in my dress I quickly changed into pyjamas and then ran downstairs.

The living room was empty but there was rubbish everywhere, so I went outside to where the music was coming from to see Aaron, Aiden, Drake, Amber and Katie cleaning all of the rubbish.

I walked over to the music and turned it off which made everyone look at me.

"It woke me up but I thought now, I might as well help clean up this mess," I said smiling

"Thanks and sorry....er....you could help Alex clean up inside," Aaron said and so I started making my way inside, but then remembered something.

"Wait a sec, where's Clair and shouldn't she be cleaning this mess up since it was her party?" I asked

"Don't know and cant be bothered to care," Aaron said shrugging.

So I continued making my way inside but couldn't see any sign of Alex.

"Alex?" I shouted out

"Nicki?" he asked emerging from behind one of the sofas

"I thought you were a sleep," he said smiling and walking over to me with a half full garbage bag.

"I was but then I was woken up by the noise. Then Aaron said if I wanted to help then I should come and help you," I said returning his smile.

"Cool Here's a bag, if you could help me collect all the cans and cups please," he said handing me an empty garbage bin.

"Alrighty," I said starting to work.

There was a can that I couldn't reach on top of our book cabinet and I was struggling. "Let me help you with that," Alex said pushing me slightly by my waist leaving his hand to linger there as he reached up to get the can. All of a sudden I felt a bit of a liquid on my head and then a can

"What the HELL!?" I shouted at Alex who was just smirking.

"Whoops," he said before turning around and walking off.

"Where do you think your going?" I asked as I grabbed a can from the table which was full of plenty of drink. Alex turned around still smirking but I whipped that smirk right off of his face when I poured the whole content of the drink on him which surprisingly made his grey eyes darken and he looked pretty pissed as he made his way towards me. "Oops," I said laughing

"You're GONNA PAY!" he shouted as I ran outside screaming.

"I-----," I said trying to gain my breath back from laughing so loud only to be tackled to the ground.

"MAN!" Aaron and Aiden shouted as I squealed.

"That's what you get," he said smirking before getting off me as I just glared at him

"I could have BROKEN MY SPINE OR SOMETHING!" I shouted at him.

"I obviously wouldn't have done such a thing to you now would i?" he asked innocently

"Yeah you wouldn't other wise you'd have me to deal with," Aaron said helping me up making sure that I was ok.

"She poured someones drink all over me," Alex said pointing to his soaked shirt.
