The next morning, Thea woke up with a heavy headache. She sat up on the bed and held her head in her hands. Her eyes were still heavy and closed. She cursed and tried to recollect the incidents of last night. She remembered her talking to Zach, his affection for Keira, her broken state and going out on the beachfront with two bottles of alcohol. She also remembered drinking heavily, the waves touching her feet; but how did she reach back to her room?
Thinking all this when she opened her eyes, she found the surroundings a bit strange. "Why does the size of the window in the room look bigger?" Thea pondered, even the decor of the room looks a little different than it was! Realizing something was not right, she sat looking around with her mouth agape.
Her eyes widened in horror when she noticed she was in someone else"s room and not in her hotel room. And then she felt that was not the only thing that was different… Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
"Yes! MY CLOTHES! Where are my clothes? I am not wearing my clothes but… but a s.h.i.+RT? I am wearing a s.h.i.+rt A MAN"S s.h.i.+RT! Where did my clothes go? What happened again?"
Thea tried to recall what happened after she got drunk last night, whom she was with before she pa.s.sed out, and she almost fell from the bed when she remembered everything. The last thing she remembered last night was… was actually... "Oh Noooo!!!! Not Again!"
She remembered Jeru trying to pull her forcefully interrupting her beautiful time with the waves. He was the person she remembered seeing before she pa.s.sed out.
"Why him? What sin did I commit to end up in his room, in his bed again? And why does it have to be such an embarra.s.sing state? This is not fair!"
While she was complaining in her thoughts she heard the sound of the water coming from the bathroom and she presumed it was probably Jeru.
She panicked, quickly stood up from the bed and ran towards the door. She did not care how awkward she looked walking in the hotel hallway in just a s.h.i.+rt and barefoot towards her room. Then she suddenly halted and cursed because she had no card key.
"d.a.m.n!! There is still more humiliation and embarra.s.sment to come for me in front of that man!" she garbled.
She was too embarra.s.sed and she tapped her feet in frustration and scratched her head annoyingly as she walked back to the room where she ran away from. She dared not go to the hotel concierge with her current appearance and she did not know any room number of her team members too.
"s.h.i.+t!" she muttered as she felt drowned in embarra.s.sment while she pressed the doorbell. "Why did I bother to run away when I had to come back in the end?" she scolded herself. She couldn"t bear to look at Jeru when he opened the door.
What she did was enter the room immediately before anyone could recognize her. As soon as she was inside the room the first thing she looked for was the telephone as she made a call to the reception.
Then she turned her gaze at Jeru and quickly retracted it when she saw that he was drenched and seemed to just come out of a bath because the only piece of cloth on him was a towel around his waist.
She saw his bare chest, water dripping in small and big droplets from his body and landing into his V-curve... He was fit and lean and those abs…"Is he flaunting those packs intentionally?" she hissed inside because Jeru did not even move an inch from his spot even though he noticed Thea checking him out.
Thea cursed inside because of the awkward scene as she asked, "What is your room number please?"
Jeru gave her the room number and Thea gave it to reception on the other line so they could instruct someone to bring her card key.
"I had your clothes sent at the hotel laundry because they were gross," Jeru said pertaining to her vomiting at him. Thea felt extremely embarra.s.sed because she clearly remembered what happened.
"Thank you by the way for everything… And sorry for the trouble.." Thea murmured, her head still tilted down. She felt uncomfortable to look at Jeru and his bare chest.
Jeru was about to say something but his doorbell rang. Thea stood up and said, "That must be for me…"
Jeru arched a brow seeing how Thea was in a hurry. "Is she for real? After all the trouble she had caused me, she is simply trying to run away?" he mused disappointingly.
Unconsciously, Jeru held Thea"s arm to stop her. Thea creased her forehead and hissed, "What?"
"What? Seriously?" Jeru exclaimed as he scanned Thea from head to toe.
My s.h.i.+rt… I want my s.h.i.+rt back. Now..." added Jeru with a smirk.
Thea"s face reddened with embarra.s.sment as she realized that she was still wearing Jerus"s s.h.i.+rt. But what? Did he say he wants it back now?
"I am not going to eat your s.h.i.+rt! Don"t worry, I will return it to you. So can you please let me go to my room now to allow me to change and return your s.h.i.+rt later?" said Thea, feeling annoyed.
"Alright! Remember to wash and iron it before you return it. Also, use your own hands, don"t use the machine for this costly s.h.i.+rt of mine." Jeru said nonchalantly.
Thea almost vomited blood hearing his dissing words and just agreed with whatever he said.
As soon as Jeru let her arm go, with quick movements, Thea opened the door and immediately ran back towards her room as soon as she got hold of her room card key from the bellman outside.
She felt her cheeks still burning up…"What the h.e.l.l? Why do I have to cross paths with him these days! She mused complaining.
