Life As We Know It (Louis Tomlinson Fanfic)

Chapter 3 - Not such a "bad boy" after all

Even from a distance I could see the big smirk plastered all over his face. He winked at me and climbed into the drivers seat. Before I could even register what was happening he drove off.

Making sure he was gone, I quickly pulled my curtains closed and turned around, sliding down the wall until my bum hit the ground. My heart race quickened along with my breathing, I started panicking, feeling slightly evident at my current situation. My hands shook heavily with response.

I placed my head in my hands, trying to steady them. Dizziness overcoming me as I felt my head grow light and my surroundings fading to a solid black.

"Selena, Selena!"

My eyes fluttered open to reveal a blinding light. My head felt groggy, almost like someone had pulled a sheet over my eyes. It took a couple of seconds before my brain started to process my surroundings. I was in my room, but the stiff feeling in my back told me that I wasn't on my bed. I was confused, why would I sleep on the floor? But then I remembered back and concluded that I must've fainted. My mother's head was hovering over me, panic smothered all over her facial features.

I sunk my head down into my hands, a groan falling out of my mouth.

When I raised my head from my hands, my mother was still staring at me. But she was no longer hovering over.

"W-what happened?" I asked, my words still not properly forming.

"I'm not sure, but I think you fainted, I was so worried! I came home from work, and found you lying on the floor!" Tears were now starting to flow from her eyes. I looked at her in a state of confusion.

Slowly, the memories started to come back to me, drip by drip. I remembered reading a text and then seeing Louis looking at me. Then I remembered feeling a sudden rush of panic, and then..nothing.

"Can I please have my phone?" I asked my mother, not wanting her to worry about me.

"Sure thing, anything you want!"

A few seconds later she was back by my side, my cell phone in her hand. Grabbing it, I unlocked the screen and then went straight to my text messages. The latest text was one from Louis:

The next time you decide to do a strip tease, warn me first ;) x

I cringed in response.

"What is it sweetheart?" My mother asked, a curious tone in her voice told me that she noticed a change in my reaction.

"It's nothing."

Well technically it wasn't nothing, but I didn't want to have to worry her any more then I had to.

"Ok, well let me know if you need anything, and I'm not letting you go to school tomorrow! Now go back to bed, you need your rest. I'll bring you tea later." She replied, shortly before turning away and walking back down the hallway.

I re-read the text, overcome with the emotions that were involved. Anger, frustration and violated were only some of the words to describe how I was feeling.

My eyelids were beginning to droop, signalling that I was becoming extremely tired. I quickly unlocked my phone again before texting an anger filled response to Louis.

Don't EVER come to my house again! Or I'll tell everyone and get a restraining order!

Pressing over the send button, a feeling of relief over came me.

I finally gave in to my drooping eyelids and let them win the never ending battle.
