Slowly, my eyes opened to see a sleeping Caleb. Even though I knew what I was doing last night, I still felt like I had cheated on James. I had laid in bed with another boy, whom I had hardly known for a week. Plus, his arms were still wrapped tightly around my torso.

He didn't actually look as intimidating when he was sleeping compared to when he was awake, despite the bruise from the punch, still surrounding his left eye. It looked pretty painful, but I couldn't help but admire his courage to stand up for himself. His eyes fluttered open to see me creepily staring back at him.

"I feel like shit," Caleb said instead of pushing me out of the bed, which I was very much prepared to do. I could only imagine what Katherine and Mike would say if they'd realised that Caleb and I had slept in the same bed together.

I huffed out in annoyance, mainly with myself for what I had done. "Well you're going to just have to drink water and stay in bed," if it wasn't awkward enough already, after I'd said that, I tried to scoot away off of the bed, but instead I was met with my ass on the floor.

Instead of an 'are you okay?' or 'do you need help?' from Caleb, all I received was one of his stupid remarks. "Have a nice fall?" Caleb asked sarcastically as I stood up and marched out of his room to the bathroom, I needed a shower to rub my body down and to be clean from the party last night, and from Caleb's bed and arms.

Sadly, I can't clean my memory from mine and James' argument last night. If it wasn't bad enough that I slept in the same bed as Caleb, I still had James to worry about, and I wasn't entirely prepared to tell him about it.

There was no school today as we had started school on Thursday and finished the week yesterday, so today I was totally free to just laze around and stay as far away from Caleb as I could get. I jumped out of the shower and changed into some comfy clothes, which consisted of some black leggings and a big blue jumper that had belonged to James, but I'd forgotten to give it back.

"Don't you look nice," Caleb said smugly at the door of the bathroom, as he popped two aspirin into his mouth then gulped it down with some water. I knew he could tell it was James' since it was incredibly oversized, and I wouldn't buy myself one like this.

"Move, I need to dry my hair," I said, trying to shove him out of the doorway but it no avail, he didn't move. Instead, he smirked evilly and gave me a once over. "Make me," he slowly moved closer to me, trapping me against the bathroom sink.

Suddenly, I did something that I never thought I would do to a boy. It was mainly based on instinct and the anger that I was currently holding in about him. I kneed him where I knew it would hurt.

You've probably guessed where.

"Bitch!" he shouted out as he crumbled to the floor in agony. As quick as he fell, I scrambled around his hunched body and sprinted into my room, where I would hopefully stay for the whole weekend.
