We've reached chapter 100 omg I can't believe it!!!
____________________________________
"So blame it on the ni-ight-i-ight, don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me!" Niall was singing loudly for 5 minutes now and he's surely not going to shut up.
Vicky and I winced when he raised his voice even more. Thankfully, the chorus came in and he stopped singing, but despite that, he jammed and drummed his fingers on the steering wheel, nodding his head on the rythm. Someone's really excited tonight.
"Niall dude, shut up," Jason groaned, grimacing. His blonde hair was pushed back perfectly, showing his amazing green eyes.
"It's my car you dumbass!" Niall claimed, smirking proudly when Jason rolled his eyes.
Vicky grimaced next to me, scrunching her lips. She didn't want to hear any more of Niall singing, but she didn't have any other choice, neither did I and Jason. To be honest, Niall has such a sweet and nice voice, but sometimes when he raises his voice just to annoy us, our ears bleed.
Niall raised the volume even more, making my ears vibrate. I chuckled to myself and shook my head. Damn, this kid really loves music. Vicky placed her hand on my thigh, squeezing tightly. I gave her a weird look, quietly asking her what the hell she's doing.
She leaned closer to my ear. "I can't stand him anymore, Becca, I swear I'm going to punch him." she complained.
I laughed at this, tilting my head back and closing my eyes. Yeah, I would love to see a fight between Vicky and Niall. They're both to cute and kind to fight, but if they get really pissed off, they're going to rip each other's heads off.
"Dude, you're not avoiding the punch tonight." Jason warned when Niall started poking his shoulder just to annoy him.
Niall smirked, blue eyes never leaving the road. "Don't fight me, Jacob, I'm too sexy to have a black eye," Niall mused, his face turning red.
I loved when Niall does that. When he laughs damn hard his face turns red and his laugh is music to my ears. It just immidiately brings a smile on my lips and I laugh with his laugh-sometimes for no reason. I was glad he was happy though, because today at college he was a mess.
"Sexy?" Vicky scoffed, crossing her arms. "If you're sexy then I'm a fucking model." she said, trying to piss Niall off.
Niall gave her a weird look from the reaver-view mirror. "What? You think I'm not sexy?" he asked, wriggling his brows at her.
I let a snort, enjoying seeing them two teasing each other. Vicky shrugged, a ghost of a smile playing on her pink lips.
"Not at all, Niall." she said, trying to sound serious.
Niall scoffed, rolling his eyes. "I bet you'd fall down on your knees if you see me shirtless." he said, moving his hand in the air.
Jason and I let a snort, trying to hold back our laughs. It's impossible though, seeing Niall's smug face and Vicky's scowl. Two different expressions yet too funny for me to handle. I burst into laughing and Jacob did the same.
"Shut up you idiots." Vicky shot, glaring at me.
"Sorry girl," I chuckled, covering my mouth with my hand. "But you two are hilarious!" I said laughing,
"Yeah," Jason agreed, nodding his head once. "Total show offs."
I leaned forward and high fived him. I leaned back on my seat and stared with amusement at Vicky and Niall arguing about who's sexier. I can't believe they are 22, they act like 13 year old teenagers.
"Whatever Niall, you're not Johnny Depp so fuck off." Vicky remarks, gaining a surprised expression from me.
"So? Johnny Depp isn't that sexy." Niall defends, shrugging, trying to seem nonchalant.
"He is." I said, agreeing with Vicky. Like, c'mon, if Johnny Depp isn't sexy then who is?
Harry Styles.
Oh yeah, that sounds right.
"He doesn't have such beautiful blue eyes like I do. Kiss my ass Johnny!" Niall exclaimed, causing the three of us to laugh hard.
"Oh my God Niall, what did you drink today?" I asked, giving him an amused look.
His smile grew even bigger-if that's even possible. "Nothing at all. Wait until I drink Becca and you'll see." he chuckled darkly.
"Oh no," Jason shook his head. "You're driving asshole, you can't get drunk." he said, slapping the back of Niall's head.
Vicky and I giggle, sharing amused looks. Niall huffs, shooting a glare to Jacob, eyes narrowing.
"I'm drinking tonight no matter what you say. And if you want a drive back home, call a cab." he said, raising his chin as he tried to look confident.
"Wow, thanks a lot Niall." Vicky sarcastically said, looking outside the window.
"No problem, hun." Niall sarcastically replied.
A loud pat was heard when Vicky leaned forward and smacked the back of Niall's head. Yeah, you think she couldn't do it? Well, Vicky might have small hands, but trust me, if they ever hit you, you should quickly put ice on.
"Ow!" Niall groaned, rubbing the back of his head. He shot an icy glare to Vicky from the reaver-view mirror, pursing his lips tightly.
Vicky smirked and leaned back, crossing her arms once again. I was leaning forward, hiding my face in the back of the passenger's seat, holding it tightly from the sides. I couldn't help but giggle and I could hear Jacob doing it too from in front.
"Remind me why we brought that monkey with us?" Niall said, giving a sideways glance at Jason who was biting his cheek, trying not to laugh.
"Shut up or that monkey will slap your face, hard." Vicky scolded, having an annoyed expression.
"You can't fight with a lion, hun." Niall winked, gaining another glare from Vicky.
"Try me, jerk." she raised a challenging brow.
"Nah, I already did it. You should really learn how to muffle your moans, Vicky."
All three of us sucked in a breath, eyes wide with surprise. Oh my God, Niall! I turned to look at Vicky, seeing her face turning hot red and her lips parted out of shock. Her blue eyes were wide, her brows furrowed.
"You motherfu-," she didn't finish, however, as she leaned forward, reaching with her nails to scratch Niall's face.
Jason and I jumped, not expecting such a reaction from Vicky. She was never that threating, or I've never seen her being like one. She was always cute and tried to be polite. Well, I guess everyone has a bad side, eh?
Niall accidentally pressed the horn as he leaned forward and lowered his face, trying to avoid Vicky's nails. For a moment, I though he was shouting for help, but when Jason turned the radio off, I realized he's laughing.
"I'm gonna punch that smirk off your face you bas-," Vicky hissed, but she was soon cut off by me.
I took hold of her hands that reached hungrily for Niall's hair, trying to keep them down. "Vicky calm down! He's just messing with you!" I said, widening my eyes at her.
Even though I found it pretty amusing, I wanted things to chill. We're still in the car, in the middle of the road, and I didn't want to cause an accident.
"Vicky stop!" I freed her hands with a loud shout. She pursed her lips and leaned back, breathing heavily.
"Did you hear what he say?" she looked at me with an annoyed expression.
Niall let a snort. Vicky snapped her gaze to him, narrowing her eyes at him. "It was just a joke, Vicky." Niall said simply, trying to keep his expression blank.
Vicky scoffed. "What a nice joke, Niall. What happened to your sense of humor? Dissapeared just like your brain?" She grinned cheekily.
Niall gasped. "Don't make me kick you out of the car, monkey."
"Don't make me call your girlfriend and tell her what you said."
Niall's eyes widened, locking with Vicky's through the reaver-view mirror. "You wouldn't."
She nodded, biting her lower lip. "Oh yes, I would."
Niall groaned and rolled his eyes. "Okay, fine, I'm sorry, are you happy now?" he raised his brows.
Vicky nodded, a victorious smirk back on her lips. God, they do act like 13 year old teenagers. I shake my head and look outside the window.
Suddenly, the volume turns on and I jumped, my heart skipping a beat. We all turned and glared at Niall. He shrugged innocently and started dancing again.
Eh, what can you say, Niall never changes.
...
"Oh man!" Niall laughed, tilting his head back and closing his eyes, one hand holding his shot and the other in his pocket.
We've been having a great time so far, all of us laughing and saying jokes all the time. I danced a lot with Monica and Vicky, and I have to say that those girls know how to shake that booty. Niall and Jason were talking with boss, saying some things that made Niall smile brightly every two seconds.
The rest of the cooks were here too, Kyle and Chris, both of them drinking until they get wasted. I have to see them for months, maybe a whole year, actually. They got married and left for the honey moon, leaving us behind. I didn't really mind to be honest, since I've never been really close to any of the two, but I felt a little frustrated for leaving Niall, Monica, Vicky and Jason having all the weight on their shoulders. I was missing for a month too, but that's a whole different story.
"I'm going to the toilet, wanna come with me?" Vicky said to my ear, gaining my attention.
I moved my gaze from Jacob who was talking to her. It was dark, but the different colourful lights helped a lot. "Nah, not really," I said, shaking my head.
Hell, I wasn't going back to that damned restroom. What if that demon's around me now and waits patiently for me to get in his trap again? There's no way I'm doing this favor to him.
"Okay," Vicky sighed and poked Monica's back.
Monica turned to look at her with a huge smile. She looked really nice tonight. Deep red lipstick, a black dress and black high heels, matching with her black short hair.
Vicky leaned to Monica's ear, asking her if she wants to go to the restroom with her. Monica nodded and jumped off the stool, following Vicky and dissapearing in the crowd. I moved my gaze to Jack who was excitedly explaining something to Jason and Niall who were listening with concetration.
Jack then moved his gaze to me, green eyes sparkling in the darkness. I felt a little paralyzed, since I had always liked Jack's appearance. His muscular body and deep blonde hair were always gaining my attention, and he never failed to make me wanna get to know him better.
"Rebecca, love, come here," he motioned for me to sit next to him, smirking at me.
His accent is just perfect. The way he says 'love' always made me blush. I nodded and slipped out of my stool, walking and standing next to Jack. He turned his body to face me, turning his back to Niall and Jason who swallowed down their drinks as if there's no tomorrow. I wonder if Niall's allowed to drink that much. He's a football player, after all, right?
"Sit down." Jack said kindly.
I sat down on the stool next to him, smiling. He leaned over the bar, crossing his arms on it, his eyes never leaving mine. His white shirt hugged his body perfectly and I tried my best not to scan it with my eyes.
"So," he started, dragging a shot towards me. I looked at it, not sure if I really wanted to drink it. "It's not poisoned." he joked, making me smile nervously.
Why so nervous? You know him for almost a year, no need to act like that.
I cleared my throat, taking the shot in my hand. Oh, it's cold but I'm sure it burns like hell. I moved my gaze up to his face. He was staring down at my hand that was holding the shot.
"I have something to tell you, Rebecca." he said, looking up at my face.
I nodded. "Okay. What is it?" I asked, sitting straight. I crossed my legs and Jack's eyes moved there, making my heart skip a beat. Get your eyes up you pervert.
Jack smiled and looked up at me. "You know, you're really special, Rebecca." he said, taking a sip from his tequila.
"Thanks." I said simply, blushing a little.
"I want you to do me a favor, Rebecca." he leaned closer, staring directly into my eyes.
I blinked a little, deciding that I should drink that shot. Without hesitation, I brought the small glass to my lips and tilted my head back, swallowing down the shot quickly. It burned my throat and made me slightly grimace. Damn, it burns.
Jack chuckled lightly when I opened my eyes to look at him. I felt slightly lightheaded but ignored it. I was still not drunk.
"What favor?" I asked, leaning over the bar.
He smirked, looking hotter. "I'm glad you're in then." he said, taking another sip from his drink, never breaking eye connection.
"So tell me, what is it?" I raised a brow.
He leaned closer to my ear. "I want you to teach your tricks to a new member of our crew." he said, surprising me.
"New member?" I said when he pulled away, widening my eyes.
He nodded. "She'll be here in a couple of minutes, you'll meet her." he said, swallowing down the last sip of his drink before he ordered one more.
"Aha." I murmured to myself, looking around.
The music got even louder, vibrating my ears. Vicky and Monica walked towards me, dancing on the rythm. They both smiled broadly at me, their eyes showing excitement.
"C'mon!" Vicky grabbed my hand, pulling me towards the dance floor.
I didn't resist though, I followed them down on the dance floor. The three of us started dancing, my head spinning a little but I didn't care. I liked it, actually. As soon as I could still understand what's going on with me and walk, I didn't mind drinking one more drink.
Or two.
Minutes later, I don't remember how many drinks I drank. I am leaning against the bar, laughing at something Niall said, even though I didn't even hear it. My knees felt weaker so I decided to sit on the stool and hold Niall's arm. Niall was drunk too, as he kept singing loudly and dancing next to me.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned around to see Jack smirking. I furrowed my brows but smiled.
"Here's the new member," he said, patting a brunette's shoulder.
The brunette girl turned around, laughing about something another girl told her before she turns around. My eyes widened, my mouth falling agape.
Her expression mirrored mine, her brown bloodshot eyes shining. A smile tugged at my lips and I leaned forward to hug her.
"I can't believe it's you!" I cheered, laughing.
She laughed, hugging me back. "I didn't know you work at the restaurant!" she said, pulling away a few seconds later to look at me. "Hannah hasn't told me."
"Well, it was a nice surprise then, wasn't it?" I said, winking at her.
My head hurts.
"So it looks like you two know each other." Jack laughed.
Niall turned to see what's going on, his blue eyes landing on her. "Emily?"
Emily giggled, leaning closer to hug him. "How are you, Niall?" she said sweetly.
Niall hugged her back. "I'm good, a little wasted but I'll live." he chuckled.
Emily shook her head. "I can see you're hardly standing."
"I have Rebecca holding me steady." he said, making me laugh.
My head still hurts.
But despite that, I found myself dancing on the dance floor with Emily a few minutes later. I couldn't stop myself, I just loved the feeling of freedom that coursed me when I danced.
I felt an arm wrapping around my waist, pulling me against a hard chest. I frowned, my head spinning now. I moved my head to the side, seeing it's a hot guy with black hair and brown eyes smirking down at me.
I slapped his hand but he didn't let go. My heart raced now, my fists clenching. He hold me even tighter, making me glare sideways at him.
"Let me go, you pervert!" I yelled, but of course, it wasn't quite easy to be heard in the middle of the club.
I looked over at Emily for help but she was a few feet away from me, dancing with a guy I remember seeing at college. My stomach twisted when the guy's free hand landed on my hip.
I struggled to free myself, my fists hitting weakly the guy's muscular arm. I felt his chest vibrating as he chuckled behind me, and it only made me feel angrier than before.
My eyes then suddenly locked with green, furious ones in the distancw. My vision got a little blurry but it quickly went clear when I blinked. My heart stopped when I saw him, sitting by the bar, staring at me with furrowed brows, the colourful lights hitting his pale skin.
It didn't take long, however, until I felt the arm unwrapping from around me and seeing Harry right in front of me. He was here the whole time. I gasped when Harry's fist connected with the guy's jaw and he fell down, everyone turning around to look what happened.
Harry then quickly turned to me, green intense eyes scanning my face. I felt a little dizzy and it was as if the air in the room thickered.
"Go outside, I'll meet you there." Harry demanded, anger laced in his husky voice.
I nodded and pushed through the crowd, ignoring everyone's stares. I'm getting used to this. I gasped again when I finally went outside, breathing in the cold fresh air.
My head was still spinning and I was stumbling on my feet. I decided to sit down on a bench a few feet away. It took a lot of effort to walk normally and sit there, but I somehow managed to do it.
I saw down on the bench and leaned in, holding my head in my hands and resting my elbows on my thighs. Why does alcohol have to make you feel this way? My stomach was twisted upside down and my mouth was dry.
"Rebecca."
I groaned, rubbing my eyes. Great, now I hear voices. And it's not just that, I hear them fading away. I leaned back, hiding my face in my hands. It's cold outside; considering I'm still wearing my dress and not having my jacket with me. I bet Harry will be done soon and I truly hope he doesn't hurt anyone else.
"Rebecca."
I sighed. I'm not drinking that much ever again. A loud thunder made me jump, my sudden movement bringing me headache. I huffed, pissed off with my status.
And then, just to piss me off more, it started raining. Droplets fell down on me, but as much as it made me angrier, it calmed me down. The water was cold yet nice as it fell down on my burning skin. The moon was shining brightly up in the sky, but the clouds surrounded it, hiding it from my view. I looked down at my shakey hands, trying to gather myself.
"Rebecca."
My head snapped upwards, my blood running cold, when I recognized the voice. It wasn't a faded one, no; it was a clear yet pained voice calling my name. No. No. This is not real. I swallowed hard, not truly believing what I'm seeing.
But it was real.
And Zayn was standing right in front of me.
