I pulled myself up from the bed.

"Where are you going?" Nick asked.

"Shower. I need to take a shower before I sleep." I said while grabbing my towel.

He glances at his watch. "It's already eleven in the evening."

I nodded. "Yeah, what's wrong with that?"

He stares at me as I grab my mini basket that contains all the things I need for my shower --- shampoo, body wash, shaver, conditioner and some other extra stuff. I started slipping off from my clothes in front of him leaving me with nothing but my underwear on then I quickly wrapped my towel around my body. We just looked at each other for a few seconds and I was waiting for him to get up from the bed and tell me that he's going to join me in the shower.

Oh please join me in the shower, Nick.

"I'll just wait for you here, then." he says.

I sigh inwardly.

"Alright. Don't touch any of my stuff." I said as I march my way to the door and headed out of my room.

I walked my way to the shower and saw a few ladies heading out which leaves me alone. Great. If some serial killer is around the dorm, I'm the first one to die. I looked for a clean or slightly used shower room and hurriedly walked inside and pulled the shower curtains to cover me. I started taking off my bra then my underwear then turned on the shower, setting it warmer.

As the lukewarm water was running down my head and wetting my entire self, my mind was still thinking about Catherine. I wonder how she looks like. I wonder if she's insanely gorgeous. I wonder what's the color of her hair, or the color of her eyes, or how her voice is when she speaks. I wonder how she laughs. I wonder how tall she is. I wonder if she was Nick's first person to have sex with and Nick was her first. I wonder where she is. I wonder if they're still communicating each other.

I sigh.

"You shouldn't be thinking about it Savannah." I whispered to myself.

I started humming a few random songs while I was shampooing my hair. I'm a shower singer even if this is a community shower, I wouldn't really care and usually by this time no one is around here anymore so I think the shower room is all to myself. It's like my own little stage then I found myself singing to Ariana Grande's Just A Little Bit Of Your Heart.

I don't ever tell you how I really feel

Cause I can't find the words to say what I mean

And nothing's ever easy, that's what they say

I know I'm not your only

But I'll still be a fool

Cause I'm a fool for you

As the lyrics come out of my mouth, I was also thinking about Nick. I want just a little bit of his heart, not the whole of it but just a little bit but then tears filling my eyes again cos I know wont. I wiped it away. I'm so stupid. Im trying to tell myself I'm not in love with him but...

I am already in love with Nick.

The sound of the curtain as it opens caught me off guard and I quickly turned around. I jumped back. "Nick?" I said whisperingly.

I covered my private parts and popped my head out of the curtains, I looked around but I think no one is here with us. I stood right before him and he was only wearing Tracy's towel around his naked torso and his abs is always a great view.
