How To Save A Life: A Louis Tomlinson FanFiction

Chapter 17: Surprise, Surprise...

One Week Later;

Bella's POV:

I woke up to the sound of Lou screaming like a little girl. "Ugh! Why are you screaming?!" I moaned, pulling my blankets over my head. I patted my legs. No blanket...Weird. Must have fallen off the bed. Anyways, I am a morning person, really I am. Lou and I both are. But last night I stayed out late... At my father's funeral. I didn't expect anyone to come. But all these random people showed up. Some old friends from before he was addicted, some after (they weren't high at the funeral though...), and some that he probably met on the street like once. The last guy didn't leave the funeral until 2:30 am. IT"S A GOD DAMN FUNERAL, NOT A PARTY!! GO HOME!!!! I really wanted to kick him out, but unfortunately, as Lou kindly reminded me many times, it wasn't very polite.

"I needed you to wake up. WE"RE HERE!" He sang. What did he mean here? I was laying down in his room, right?... I sat up, taking in my surroundings.

"Where is here, exactly?" I asked, confused. He smiled excitedly.

"THE AIRPORT!!!!" He screamed. I tried to keep the confused face on my face, to not ruin his BIG SURPRISE. It was really hard. "WE'RE GOING TO ENGLAND!!!!" He screamed at the top of his lungs.

I put my best surprised look on, I've been practicing it for weeks. I had it down perfect, almost fooling myself in the mirror. If Lou didn't think I was surprised, I'd punch him in the face. Luckily for his face, he believed me completely.

"W-w-why?" I stuttered. Okay, maybe I was overplaying it...

"JUST BECAUSE! We're going to Doncaster and then Holmes Chapel. I rented a flat in Doncaster for a day to show you where I used to live. My friend Harry, that I mentioned, lives in Holmes Chapel, so we'll be visiting him for a two weeks after that!" He said excitedly.

"YAY!!" I shouted. I didn't know about the Doncaster part. I had always wanted to see where Louis had grown up. We hopped out of the car, grabbing the bags of luggage he packed. Something Lou said earlier caught my attention.

"How did you guys meet and become so close if you never lived in the same place?" I asked.

"London!" He smiled nostalgically. "We both went on vacation there one summer. We met at Victoria Secret." I looked at him questioningly.

"Ok, ok! So I was in there because my mom forgot to buy bras for Lottie. So for some reason, she picked me to go and buy her some. I walked in, and found some zebra striped thong. I figured I'd buy it and give it to Lottie, as revenge for me going into Victoria Secret. As I picked it up, a curly haired boy reached for the same one." He said laughing. By now we were in our seats on the plane. Wow, weird way to meet...

"We ended up explaining why we were buying them, and Harry's story... It was hilarious." I looked at him, waiting for him to explain. "We-" He cracked up. "He was in London with his girlfriend, Skylar. Some of Sky's luggage got stolen, and only one piece of underwear was left. She bled- haha- she bled through on her period, and made Harry go buy her some new underwear, while she shopped for new shoes to replace her stolen ones." Louis laughed.

"Once he finished, we both just stood there in silence, not sure what to say next. Finally, I broke the silence, saying it was 'Bloody hard to find nice girly underwear these days.' We both cracked up." He sat there, waiting for me to get the joke... OH... bled through the underwear... on her period... 'bloody hard...' how creative..

"Wow, hilarious Lou..." I said dryly.

"ANYWAYS, we hung out, and became very close, skyped, texted, visited eachother..." He said, fondly. From there, we talked, I slept, waiting for the plane to land.

I woke up to a the flight attendant's voice saying we would be landing in five minutes. I felt Louis's eyes on me, and turned to meet them. He was smiling like crazy. Uh oh.

"What?..." I asked hesitantly.

"You spoke in your sleep, when you were sleeping on my shoulder." He giggled. Crap.

"What did I say?..."

"You said you loved me." He giggled. Why was he giggling?

"And??"

"And you a whole dream about me being Four from Divergent. It was strange... But I think I like being Four. You were totally into me in your dream... You were like, "Four, your real name's Lou? That's so hot! Marry me!" He giggled in his girliest voice. Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap. I need to stop reading Divergent. (AMAZING BOOK! READ IT! IF YOU LIKED THE HUNGER GAMES, THIS IS BETTER!) I almost slapped my face for dreaming that, but Lou caught my hand.

I looked over at him. He glared at me. "Do not slap yourself. It is harmful. You are perfect. Don't do it." He said firmly, then he smiled, and grabbed our carry-ons, hopping off the just landed plane. I followed him, and after getting our bags, we called a cab.

We hopped into the car at the same time as another traveler. She smiled, "OHH! Can we share? I don't mind unless you do... I guess I can find a different cab, but this would be more fun, don't you think?" She babbled on, never stopping, I liked her. I smiled, nodding. She was very pretty. Brown hair, hazel eyes, and had Starbucks in her hand. I liked her already. She never stopped talking. In a good way though. Like Lou. I really liked her, she was awesome, and beautiful. She was even a model.

We talked the whole car ride, giggling, and becoming the best of friends. By the end of the ride, we knew basically everything about eachother. Except her name...

"Oh I forgot to even mention my name!" She giggled, as we exchanged numbers. "I'm Eleanor." She smiled. "Eleanor Calder."

---------------------------------------------

A/N: OHHH! Say what? What do you think is going to happen??? Will Lou stay with Bella or go with Eleanor??? So, you haven't found out what the surprise is yet, but I'm pretty sure it will be in chapter 19. there is going to be a smaller surprise next chapter though!

This was kinda a filler chapter to get them to Doncaster and introduce Eleanor, sorry it was so bad. Hope you liked it though... Comment, critique, ask. Message me if you want, I love to talk to people, even if it's personal for you or for me. xxx love you all!
