THIS IS US

Part 40

"Hey, guys... So, this is the last chapter of the book and I was thinking of writing a sequel. Which will be up very soon. Hope you like it and have been enjoying it so far." 

Ever since Louis told me everything that was going on between all four/five of them, it's been in my head the entire time.  His words were repeating in my head...

"Everything has been going well with Zayn and with each other... Definitely but to be honest, the love I don't think individually we are. I know how much I am holding back and that includes the pressure. It makes me feel like I am going to disappoint everyone, my fans, my family, friends and even you. I know the tour was amazing, it was mind-blowing. it was truly good to be back with those lads and the fans. But there is a part of me that feels like something is still unfinished. It's fucking annoying and that is affecting my relationship with the lads. I have no idea what they are feeling or what is going on through their heads" He had said, his head between in hands, looking completely lost. He was the most vulnerable at that point. his eyes showed helplessness but I could see how much he wanted to fix this, for which he needed to understand what exactly was going on. 

I ended up staying over at his place, both of us sleeping on the couch. Between talking and just being with each other, he was laying down with his head on my lap, my fingers wound up in his hair and that way we both fell asleep without realising.

It's been 2-3 days since then and since the boys have some time in their hands, I decided to invite them to my house. Rachel was attending her sister's fashion show, while Lou and Lottie were busy with some work somewhere out of London. They will be back in two days...

I was making dinner when there was a knock on the door. I wiped my hands on my apron and opened the door, to see Louis standing there with beers in his hand. 

"Hello darling ... Here help me with these," Louis said cheekily and handed some bottles over to me and walked in. 

"Mmmm, it smells good Kathy." He commented and bent down to kiss my temple when I was next to him. 

He placed all the beer in the fridge and I continued with the dinner.

"Aren't you a bit early?" I asked as I was marinating the chicken side by side. 

"I thought I could keep you company till the others arrive." He shrugs with a small smirk, standing behind me. Placing both his hands around my waist, leaning down as he rests his head on my shoulder. He was watching me cook but at the same time distracted me by the way he had his arms around me. His breath tickled my neck, running her shiver throughout my body. I shifted my position, trying to get out of his hold. 

"Louis, let me go. I want the food to be forgotten!!" I exclaimed and he chuckled. Kissing my cheek, he stepped away and took a seat in front of the kitchen counter. 

"Alright.." He sat with a small pout. I threw a piece of carrot on his face when he was distracted by his phone. 

He looked down at his lap, where it fell. 

"Game on, love." He laughed evilly but was interrupted by the doorbell. I sighed in relief, saved by the bell.

"Saved by the bell." He smirks and opens the door for me. I hear Niall and Harry's voices as they enter the kitchen. Why are they so early...I wanted to cook peacefully. 

Niall was holding his guitar in his hands while Harry had a bottle of the most expensive wine with him. My eyes widened at that and I looked at him.

"Who is trying to impress here, Harry. Rachel is not at home." I commented with a smirk, while side hugging Niall as the other two laughed. Harry rolled his eyes and placed the bottle in front of me.
