Charlie's POV

"Louis! Louis! Open the door!" I bang on the door hoping for him to open it "please just open it."

There is no answer. I check the time on my phone again and it is 4:15pm. He is already at his meeting. He probably took someone else. No surprise I mean he probably asked many girls to attend with him as backup plans. Maybe I was a backup plan.

I turn to walk away. Now I definately need to apologize to Jackson for leaving for nothing. Once I am half way down the hall, Louis door swings open.

"Charlie?" I hear him call out to me.

I turn around immediately. Maybe the meeting was reschedualed? He is not even dressed to go, he has on a red sweat jacket and black sweatpants with nike socks.

"Louis? Why are you still here?" I ask as I begin to walk back towards him.

"Why are you here?" He asks me and raises an eyebrow.

He always acts like I'm fucking crazy for showing up when he asks me to.

"Your meeting."

"Oh yeah, I skipped it."

"What!? Louis, why would you do that?" I ask in disbelief. He seriously skipped?

"You weren't here and I refuse to go alone. So I skipped," He shrugs and guides me into his suite.

"Why would you skip because of me?"

"Didn't I just tell you? Because I didn't want to go alone," He sits on his bed and begins to play on his phone as if I am not even here.

"Louis, I'm sorry.." That is all I can think to say.

"Don't throw that sorry shit at me. I despise that word. Where were you?" He stops and questions me.

"That's none of your business, Louis."

"I had to miss a meeting because of your absense. It is my fucking business."

"Hell no it's not."

"Hell yeah it is."

"Nothing I do is your business. Nothing about me is your business. I don't know why you think it is but I apologize for you. Thinking you own me everytime I acknowledge you. You can't own something that's not yours," I say to Louis simply. It was very simple yet affective.

Louis does nothing. He just looks up from his phone and stares at me. I didn't expect a simple reaction so I just stare back.

"Oh."

That's all he has to say? Oh?

"Anything else? You're not even going to deny anything?"

"No."

"Okay. Then I guess we're done here."

I walk to the door and once I reach it, Louis stops me.

"Don't you want to hear a story?" He calls out.

I turn to face him. My face is full of confusion. He said I can hear a story if I went to the meeting with him. I didn't. And he didn't even want to tell a story so why would he remind me?

"Are you actually going to tell me one?" I ask.

He nods and throws his phone on his pillow at the top of his bed.

"Can I request a story?"

"Yeah, it's not like a really had one prepared anyways."

I think hard for a minute before finally coming up with something.

"What do you hate the most about you? I want to know the story of why you hate it."

Louis gives me a confused look before sighing and starting.

"Well that's a weird ass request. But I do have an answer. I hate my stitches. On my left leg. It left a small scar down my leg and I despise it. I hate it because it ruined a big day for me. My father actually showed up to my soccer match and.." he glances at me and stops himself.

"Why am I even getting into detail? I hate my stitches because the ruined a big day for me. That's it," He says to me.

"I wanted a detailed story. What made that day a big day?" I ask impatiently.

"I told you that I'm not going to make this story sappy and shit. It was simple and got the point across."

"Can I see the scar?" I ask without thinking. He hates that thing so why would he bother showing it to me?

Before I can finish my thoughts, Louis is lifting up the sweat pants on his left leg to show me a nasty scar. It actually isn't too bad. I thought guys were proud of that stuff?

"Don't fucking touch it." Louis gently pushes back my hand that I didn't realize went out toward his leg.

"Sorry.."

"Don't say that word I hate it."

"Why?"

"One story was enough, Charlie."

He rolls his sweat pants back down his left leg and stares at me quizzedly.

"What?"

"You seem out of focus."

"Oh.." Is all I say.

"Why did you decide to come here, Charlie? Why didn't you tell me to fuck off like I would have told you?" Louis finally asks me.

How do I answer this? I don't even have a reason. I don't even know the answer.

"Because I'm not like you, Louis. I don't push away the ones who ask me to stay. You do that to me."

"Are you saying that I push you away?"

I nod.

"Is that your way of asking me to stay?"

Shit. This all took a turn into a deep conversation that I have no idea how to get out of.

"Not exactly," I respond and begin to play with my fingers.

"Do you want me to stay?"

"Louis, are you drunk?"

"No."

"Then why are you asking me some deep questions?"

"Because I want to know."

He moves closer to me and my heart begins to skip beats. I can't help but look at his ocean blue eyes as they study my face. This isn't Louis. At all. The Louis I know would have called me a bitch and kicked me out by now. Not stare at my face and move closer to me while asking me deep questions. But I'm not going to deny the fact that I have lost my ego and focus by now.

I can literally feel his breath on my face at this point. His hands gently grab my sides and I have lost my breath and I am left speechless.

"Answer me."

I nod without thinking. I can no longer comprehend my situation right now. I can only focus on Louis' face inches away from mine.

"Tell me you want me to stay in your life. I will, I promise. Only if you tell me to," Louis bites his lip and looks down at my lips and I can literally feel my face turn red as my pride and dignity fall out the window.

I hate this man so much. Yet here I am speechless and ready to scream if he doesn't kiss me.

"Kiss me.. please," I quietly beg.

I am so mentally insane. Begging for this man to kiss me. This is not at all what I expected when I arrived here and I shouldn't want this, this bad.

But as soon as his lips touch mine, I don't regret a thing.

WHAT THE HECK?? Charlie and Louis just kissed! This was actually a complicated chapter to write tbh. Oh and I threw a fetus Harry line in this chapter if ya didn't notice ;) OMG SO MUCH MORE IS COMING IN THIS STORY AHH. love you all x
