Chapter Thirty

My head hurt and my mouth felt like cotton wool when I surfaced from a deep sleep. Opening my eyes felt like a whole load of effort. What on earth did I do last night? If I was this hungover, then no doubt Jazz was involved. Rhys and I hated going out with her since she was always trying to ply us with more alcohol no matter our objections.

A loud sound echoed around my skull. It took a second for me to register what it was. Someone was knocking on my door. I groaned and opened my eyes, turning my head towards it in time to note Rhys walking in with two mugs in his hands. He came over and set one down on my side of the bed before walking around the other side and setting the other down. I blinked, wondering why he’d made two.

Rhys came around to my side again when he noticed I was awake.

“Hey, sleepyhead,” he murmured.

“Why do I feel like I got hit by a lorry?”

“Jazz and Jägermeister.”

“Oh god. Why did you let me do that?”

Rhys snorted and rolled his eyes.

“I wasn’t at the bar with you.”

I rubbed my face, wishing I hadn’t allowed Jazz to bulldoze over me last night.

“I’m making some breakfast, you think your ex will want some?”

“Huh?” I turned my head, noticing I wasn’t alone. “Oh shit.”

Cole was fast asleep next to me, his dirty blonde hair mussed and his face completely at peace. So that was why Rhys had made two teas.

“You were pretty insistent about not wanting him to leave,” Rhys said, making me turn my attention back to him.

“I don’t know what I was thinking.”

Rhys shook his head.

“You were drunk.”

“That shouldn’t be an excuse.”

“Should I make him something or not?”

I slapped a hand over my face, wishing I wasn’t alive because my head was pounding so hard.

“Please do. I’ll wake him up and we’ll be down soon.”

I couldn’t remember what happened last night. I had no idea if Cole and I had done anything with each other. It’s not as if I thought he would take advantage of me in a drunken state.

“I left painkillers in your drawer last time so you know, you might want to take some.”

I heard Rhys shuffle out of my room. Dropping my hand, I looked at Cole again. What on earth was I going to do with this boy? I reached over and prodded his arm.

“Cole.”

He murmured in his sleep but otherwise didn’t open his eyes. I prodded him harder, which made him bat my hand away.

“Cole.”

“What?” he muttered.

“What happened last night?”

He opened his eyes, a grin spreading across his features.

“Nothing.”

“Why don’t I believe that?”

He raised an eyebrow before reaching out and stroking my cheek.

“You told me not to leave you so I didn’t.”

Cole wouldn’t bullshit me about that kind of thing. Even if I couldn’t remember everything about last night, I believed him.

“And you didn’t do anything to me?”

“No, not even when you tried to kiss me numerous times.”
