Our Dirty Secret -l.t. [Book II]

Chapter 6

Leticia Ray's

As soon as the sun sets up, I knew it's already time for me to go as well. I sighed softly as I shift and snuggle back to Louis' arms. If I could just prolong last night, I would in a heartbeat. I could live in the dark if it means being with him every second.

Louis groaned when he felt me squish myself back into his arms. He lets me do so still, though. Pulling me closer back to his figure, his eyes stayed closed. I smile weakly as I try to capture this very moment, every feeling in the back of my mind. Louis won't be able to hold me for a long time. I won't be able to see him first thing in the morning and the last thing at night.

"Good morning, big brother." I whispered sadly as I looked up at him.

He didn't respond, but it's not like I mind. Remnants of last night are still visible on his face. I moved my body a little, so I could caress his cheek with the back of my hand. "It'll be so sad not to be this close to you for a while." I whispered before slowly placing a kiss on his face. "I love you..." I continued as I shifted closer and hugged him closer to me.

I heard him groan a little before I felt his arms around my waist. He snuggles close to me, and I could only smile sadly as I brush the strands of his hair. "I'll miss you so bad." I sighed to myself before nuzzling my face on top of his head. I just want to hold him like this and feel him breathe until I'll be able to fall asleep. If only I didn't get too reckless.

Just thinking about it made me panic all over again. I shook my big brother as hard as I could to wake him up. Louis groans again as he lifts his head up and opens his tired eyes. "Mmm... baby?"

I could only feel my tears threatening to spill as soon as I saw his face. My hands immediately slide through his chiseled face as if it was memorizing every inch of his facial feature. I love him. Could I really bear not seeing him? "Big brother, I am scared." I squeaked softly.

It took him a couple of blinks as he rubs his eyes before a frown resembles his face. He moved, so he would be the one to spoon me over. He took a sigh before smiling back at me. I was worried about whatever he would say to me next. But instead, he didn't say anything firsthand. He rubs his nose to mine first, making mine crinkle in confusion. It's not the time for him to act all cute. But then again, I could not complain. I love it when he does that. A kiss was briefly pressed against my lips soon after.

"Baby, don't you worry. We will see each other every day. We just won't share the bed anymore. It'll be sad for sure, but it's for our future together." Louis repeated his words last night as he brushes my hair gently, tracing the side of my face a little.

"Big brother just make sure you-"

"Hush." Louis smiles wider as he placed his pointer finger against my lips I blink back at him in surprise. "I'm not yet done talking, darling. Please, listen." He chuckled before pulling me closer to him. I made face but did as I was told. I bit back my tongue and watch him in wonder. "Good girl."

"Now, isn't this the right time to drop the 'big brother' endearment now?" Louis questioned, making me furrowed my brows at him in panic. I believe he felt me tensed for he immediately rubs my arm soothingly to help me relax. "I haven't addressed you as my little sister anymore for a while. " He pointed out.

"Louis, what are you talking about? I've called you big brother since we are little. It had grown accustomed to me." I said frowning. Doesn't he want me anymore? I know I am being a pessimist right now, but I could not help it. We are going to undergo so many changes, and yet he kept suggesting such trivial things.

Louis chuckles as if he finds the situation amusing yet again. "Oh, my innocent, innocent baby." He coos as he continues to stroke my arm. "Babe would be fine, you know. I am sure you'd get the hang of it already. " He suggested, making me blink back at him.
