As I had time to kill, I decided to treat myself to a long relaxing bubble bath, it was nice to finally have some time to myself, I dipped my head under the warm water and ran my fingers through my hair to remove the kinks that had formed from where I had it tied up. I resurfaced from the water wiping my eyes and lounged comfortably with the cranberry smelling bubbles cocooning my naked body.
I reached out for my IPod that rested on the top of a small set of bathroom draws and placed the small ear buds in to my ears with the sound of McFly's very first album blasting out. Danny's song 'Not Alone' was my favourite song by far, from the first moment the music entered my ears I was hooked and within a week every word had engraved itself in to my memory.
As I was alone in the comfort of my luxurious en-suite bathroom, I decided to sing it out loud to my heart's content and let the words flow in to the emptiness of the room as I stepped out of the bath tub and wrapped myself in a thick white fluffy towel that lay on the heated towel rail and used a smaller ones to dry off my long locks of damp hair, I walked out of the steam filled room in to my bedroom and almost choked on my words, I froze on the spot once again seeing in front of me what looked like a band reunion, Dougie, Danny, Connor and James were casually sprawled out all over my neatly made king sized bed chatting away as if they didn't have a care in the world
"How the fuck did you get in my room?" I said when I had found my voice again, my head still cocked to the side whilst I carried on drying the ends of my hair
Everyone suddenly went silent when my voice was heard as it had dawned on them that I'd emerged from the bathroom and all four pairs of eyes were transfixed on me.
Connor and James looked genuinely apologetic and it wasn't because I was stood in the middle of the room wrapped in a towel, that didn't faze them one bit as they had seen it many times before when we lived with our parents because I had to walk past James' room to get to my own bedroom and most of time the boys were sat in there with the door wide open, but Danny and Dougie's reaction was something I'd never experienced before, it reminded me of the Tom and Jerry cartoons as their eyes had literally left their sockets with surprise.
"I knew there was a girl hiding in there somewhere" Danny blurted out with a cheeky wink
"Yeah...Well, Don't get used to it" I replied and shuffled through my sports bag in search for a more suitable outfit that would help me fit in a little bit with the rest of the hotel guests I pulled out a pair of plain black skinny jeans, a long burgundy tank top and a denim style hooded jacket and bundled it up in my arms before heading straight back inside the bathroom to get dressed in peace and left my long towel dried locks of hair flowing down over my shoulder to dry naturally as my hair tie was still on the dresser, along side my baseball cap
The noise level had increased suddenly with shouting and laughter coming from the other side of the door, I peeked through a little gap to see what all the commotion was about and caught all four guys treating my bed like a Jungle Gym jumping on and around it equipped with pillows and cushions whacking each other with so much force that the feathers inside started to scatter around the room, it looked so much fun that I grabbed the nearest cushion I could find and jumped straight in to the middle of the group to join in and it wasn't long before the rest of the group heard the commotion from down the corridor and let themselves in to join the ongoing pillow fight, but it seemed that I was the last person to realise the card keys we owned could enter any room we had booked out, it was pretty cool but it meant I had to say goodbye to my privacy for the next two nights.
We were so caught up in our fun and games that we didn't notice Fletch stood in the doorway gazing at us with his arms folded and his foot rhythmically tapping the floor, slowly we all piped down and looked at him with guilty faces like a bunch of naughty school children who were going to be punished for causing trouble, we stood waiting for him to give us his lecture us on how to behave in public areas
"Right children, clean this mess up and get your asses to the car so we can get sound checked for tonight's show" Fletch stated as he rolled his eyes leaving us to dwell on our surroundings
We didn't realise how much mess we had caused, my room and it's furnishings had turned pure white with feathers. It was like a fresh blanket of snow had covered my entire room. I looked over to the small cylinder paper bin the corner and wondered how on earth everything would fit inside.
As we cleared away, I watched as the bin slowly reached the brink of overflowing, but still everyone tried compacting down as much as they could and eventually one by one the boys slowly disappeared leaving me with the remnants. Dougie was the only one who stayed behind to help me.
"I have arranged a little surprise for you tomorrow, so make sure you don't plan anything" He said as he swiped a handful of pearly white feathers from the bedside table and added them on top of the overflowing dustbin whilst I stood at the side of my bed picking out the feathers that had embedded themselves in to my duvet cover because I wasn't keen on the thought of waking up in the middle of the night sneezing my head off due to them tickling my nose
"I really hate surprises" I said bluntly without looking up
I heard his footsteps walking in my direction and saw an extra pair of hands beside me helping to remove the feathery madness from the bed
"I'm gunna let you in on a little secret, I hate surprises too, but what I really hate the most is when beautiful girls want to steal my bass customising ideas and pass them on to another band... her brother's band perhaps" He said with a smirk and I instantly looked over at him. That's when it hit me. The mysterious man on the first night of the tour was Dougie, It was him all along, I knew I wasn't going crazy!
"OH really?!..." I replied and stopped with my mouth agape when the words had finally sunk in to my head
"...Y-you think I-I'm beautiful?" I stuttered in almost a whisper
He stood directly in front of me looking down in to my eyes lovingly, our bodies were barely an inch apart and I could feel his warm breath upon my skin, my legs almost collapsed underneath me as I drifted off in to his gaze, forgetting everything around me, I felt as if we were in our own private bubble but the feeling subsided when the familiar jolt of electricity that me and Dougie always shared from skin on skin contact bought me back to reality, his hand was rested on my face and his eyes darted from mine down towards my lips. I had a really strong urge to kiss him and I sensed he wanted to do the same as he unconsciously licked his lips. He glided his hand smoothly across my skin to the nape of my neck, entwining his fingers with my long locks of hair and brushed them down through
"You'd look so much more beautiful if you didn't look like you've just rolled out of a birds nest" He smirked and bit his bottom lip as he pulled a couple of small fluffy feathers from my hair and ran them delicately across my cheek bone and my lips that were now swollen and ready to interact with his, he started to close the gap between us and his lips skimmed mine just before someone barged in to my room and ruined the moment.
Brad was just in time to see us both pull away before we got a full taste of the craving we had for each other, he stood in the doorway dumbfounded at what he had witnessed, Dougie and I looked anywhere but each other in a moment of awkwardness
"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you both" Brad said breaking the silence
"Yeah, I..um...I'd better go, I'll see you both at the venue" Dougie said looking up at us both a little flustered and left the room with me still stood blushing like a mad woman in front of Brad who was still remained in the doorway staring at me with a raised eyebrow
"So I guess Tristan was right when I overheard him say that one of the McFLY guys fancies you" He concluded
"Don't be silly, Dougie doesn't fancy me, he was just being a good mate and helping me clean up my room because I do have to sleep in here after all the mess we made" I said to Brad trying to sway him off the subject, but it wasn't happening
"So the fact I almost caught you both sucking each others faces off is him just being a 'good mate'?" Brad asked once again with his eyebrow raised
"It was a mistake Brad...We all make them and besides James mentioned on that same day, may I add, that I'm not their type, I'm not girly enough for them" I huffed as I picked up my hair tie and baseball cap before storming out of the door to the car that was waiting outside
