Ok this is another one that I wrote for my best friend maggie!! I didn't really make it clear wether they're famous or not because it didn't really matter to the story. I like to think they aren't famous in this one but I'll let you chose which one you think it is! Enjoy!!!

P.S. Maggie's account is 1D_girl_fanfics , now go read her fantabulous fanfic

"Took a deep breath in the mirror, He didn't like it when I wore high heels, But I do."

I sighed and turned to my best friend, Savannah. "Are you sure about this? What if Louis doesn't like me? What if he hates me?" I questioned worriedly.

Savannah came up and hugged me tightly, she pulled away slightly to look into my eyes. "Look, Maggie, I know he'll like you! Harry and I have been planning this for a while now. Just be yourself. You are a natural beauty and that is who he will fall in love with! Yourself! Now go put on what I picked out and get back in here so I can do your makeup!" she assured me.

I sighed again, smiled slightly and nodded. She let me go and I went into my bedroom to see the outfit she picked. Simple distressed skinny jeans and a white and navy blue striped shirt. A white clutch, hoop earrings and white heels finished the look. I quickly dressed and went out to savannah. "Beautiful!" she praised, "Am I a genius or what?"

I grinned at her dorkiness while I wobbled on my heels. "Are you sure about these?" I asked while pointing at my feet.

"Of course! You always looked sexier in heels!" she answered, a little too preoccupied with putting blue eyeliner on my eyes to actually look.

I sighed yet again. I missed wearing heels. HE never liked them so I stopped wearing them. Come to think of it, I hadn't worn heels in two years because of him.

"Thinking about him again?" Savannah asked sympathetically, "You need a distraction from him! And that is exactly why you are going out tonight!"

I watched silently as Savannah grabbed my clutch and stuffed my wallet, phone, earphones, eyeliner, and lip gloss in. She handed it to me along with a key to the flat. I put on my bright red button down coat as it was cold outside, but isn't it always in London?

(A/N- ok I know this is weird but as I'm typing this up guess what song came on??!?!?!? That's right! Begin again!! So weird right!! Alright back to the story)

Savannah and I stepped out into the night air. I turned and locked the door. Savannah hugged me and whispered "good luck" before running over to her boyfriend, Harry, who caught her by the hand and pulled her in for a quick kiss. Then he gave me a polite wave and they headed down the street together.

"Turn the lock and out my headphones on, he always said he didn't get this song, But I do."

I smiled at the happy couple before turning to walk in the opposite direction. I slipped my earphones on and pressed play. As the song "How To Save A Life" filled my ears, I was reminded yet again of HIM. Once we had a three hour argument about the meaning to this song. He said it was boring and how could a song give instructions on "how to save a life"? I tried to tell him it was a message about how to talk/approach someone who is troubled and tell them that you care about them. But of course he ignored me and was stubborn up to the end. I just shook my head and continued to walk quietly down the block to the little cafe where I was supposed to meet Louis, all the while humming along to the song.

"Walked in expecting you to be late, But you go here early and you stand and wave, I walk to you."

It was late evening on a Wednesday. I was expecting Louis to be late. HE always was. Never on time. He used the excuse of being "fashionably late" even if it was by two hours. Maybe that's why I was surprised to see Louis' head raise as the bell on the door rang when I entered the warm cafe.

Louis stood from his chair at a table near the back and waved to me. I walked towards him, noticing how basically empty the cafe was.

"You pull my chair out and help me in, And you don't know how nice that is, But I do, I do."

I slid my coat off my shoulders when I got to the table. I was about to pull my chair out when Louis reached over and did it for me. I sat down as he draped my coat over my chair an took his seat across from me. I sat there, mouth wide open. No one had ever done something like that before.

He looked at me with worry, "Oh no, did I cross a line already? I'm so sorry, I just though....well I wasn't thinking...and..."

"No!" I cut him off, blushing furiously. What's wrong with me! He was just being a gentleman. "Thank you. I'm just not used to it is all."

"Oh," he said sounded relieved and confused, "Well why not? A beautiful lady like you should have lines of men waiting for their chance."

"And yo throw you're head back laughing like a little kid, I think it's strange that you think I'm funny, Cause he never did."

I chuckled at the thought of that ever happening. "I wish! I probably scared them off with my voice when I sing!"

I watched in awe as Louis burst into full out laughter. He looked just like a kid when he threw his head back and opened his mouth wide enough to show all his teeth. I couldn't believe he thought I was funny. I didn't even tell a joke. Come to think of it HE never thought I was funny. HE had always yawned when I told a joke.

"I've been spending the last eight month thinking all love bet does is Break, and Burn, and End."

Maybe Louis is the new start that I've been looking for. I listened intently to Louis as he started to talk about his favorite bands. Maybe savannah was right, I should just be myself. For a year I molded and shaped my personality to match that of the one I thought I loved. Then for eight months I tried to find the remains of the "old me". I gave up on love then. I thought it new lasted. All love did was break, burn, and end. Watching Louis talk I felt a little spark of hope. Maybe, just maybe, with a little bit of help, I could learn to love again.

"Then on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again."
