Same Mistakes

Chapter 14

Chapter 14

When I woke up the next morning I felt his warm and protective arms still wrapped around me. I couldn’t help but smile. Everything was so perfect. I was chasing my dreams, I was with Niall, and Liam was mine. I smiled at the thought. I took a deep breath and felt his arms tighten around me.

I slowly rolled over, trying not to wake him. He was a pretty sound sleeper. He squeezed me a little bit and I could tell he was still asleep. He looked so peaceful. I didn’t dare do anything but breathe and look at him. I looked at his clock and saw that it was 7:30 a.m. I decided I could probably just go back to sleep. I snuggled into his chest and I felt and

heard him sigh. I smiled and fell back asleep.

I woke up to the feeling of a warm hand on my arm. My eyes fluttered open and I blinked letting my eyes adjust to the light that was coming through the window. He pushed a stray hair away from my face and kissed my forehead. I held his hand to my face and kissed his palm. I didn’t look at the clock this time because I really didn’t care what time it was. I wanted to stay here forever.

I smiled at him and put my head in his chest. I could hear his heart beating and he took a deep breath. My head rose and fell with his chest. I felt him kiss the top of my head and his hand ran down my hair. “Good morning beautiful,” he whispered. I ran my hand over his bare chest.

“Good morning,” I whispered back. I could hear voices downstairs but I couldn’t make out what they were saying. We just laid there for a little while until he finally looked at the clock. He laughed and ran his hand down his face.

“What?” I asked.

“It’s 1:30 p.m.” he laughed into the palm of his hand. I couldn’t help but laugh too.

“Jeez. They all probably thought we were really tired, like we had been up all night or something.” I looked up at him and we both laughed knowing what everyone was probably thinking. We both knew it hadn’t happened but it would seem like it to anyone else.

He sucked in a breath. “We’d better get up. I want to show you around today.” And with that he pecked the top of my head one more time and got up. I suddenly felt cold. I got up too and felt the goose bumps all over my body. I grabbed my sweatshirt, ignoring the goose bumps on my legs, and we walked into his room. He grabbed a t-shirt and then we walked downstairs.

“Well good morning you two,” Louis said as we came down the stairs. He raised his eyebrows at us and I giggled. Liam glared at him. I knew Liam was going to be interrogated as soon as I was out of ear shot so I vowed not to leave his side for too long.

I grabbed his hand and pulled him into the kitchen. I was starving. I pulled an apple out of the fruit bowl and took a giant bite out of it. He came up behind me and wrapped his arms around me. He rested his chin on my shoulder and I knew he wanted a bite. I rolled my eyes moved my hand so the apple was in front of his face. Right before he bit into it I pulled it away. I laughed and he started tickling me.

“AHH!” I fell to the floor, laughing. “Ok fine. Fine!” I handed him the apple and he took a very large bite out of it. He pulled me back my feet and I slapped his shoulder. He swallowed and grabbed my waist. He set the apple down on the counter and I wrapped my arms around his neck. He leaned down and kissed me lightly and then pulled back. I ran my fingers through his bed head and then pulled his face to mine again.

“Whoops!” I heard someone say and I broke from Liam to see who it was. I saw the back of Nicola’s and Harry’s heads as they quickly exited the kitchen. Liam and I burst into laughter. I tear ran down my cheek and Liam clutched his stomach. I leaned onto the counter for support. Why this was so funny, I have no clue. It just was.
