Audrey's POV

After ordering our food, we went to sit down at a table. I poked my straw into the soda I'd gotten. There was an awkward silence for a while until Louis spoke up.

"You know we're going to be leaving and going tour, right?" Louis asked.

"Oh, well um, no I didn't know that." I said surprised.

"Yeah. It'll be for a while too." he mentioned.

"How long?" I asked curiously.

"Most of the year I would think. Our first tour lasted months."

"Well when are you leaving?"

"Next week...on Friday."

I nodded slowly, "Oh."

He was leaving? Why hadn't anyone mentioned this to me? Now I don't have a place to stay and I'm broke.

"You're thinking you'll have nowhere to go, aren't you?"

"How'd you know?"

"I'm a good guesser. But you could um you could go with us....only if you want."

"I would love to, but Annabelle."

"About that. My mum suggested you leave her in Doncaster and she'll take good care of her. She wants you and I to have a break. Or, as she puts it, 'more time together'."

I laughed, "I feel bad lying to her though...about us. I mean, she's so nice!"

"Yeah, I know. But will you go, cause otherwise she'll be upset."

"I don't know...Don't you think it'd be weird to have a girl sharing a tour bus with five boys?"

"I don't think that's weird, but I do think you're going to say that we're weird. It'll work out though, if you come."

Did I really want to go? Part of me was almost dying to go, but the other part of me said to stay. I trust Jay, but...I find it strange that I'd be with all of them for months on end. They could get annoying, or I could be an annoyance to them. I'm thinking about this too much. Maybe I should just go. It'll be a chance to have fun and feel young again. I'm not old, but having a kid takes a lot of responsibility. It'd be nice to just be free again.

"I'll go." I said plainly.

"Really?" he asked surprised. "I was sure you'd reject it."

"And lose a chance to just go crazy like any normal teenager? No way." I teased.

"I thought you were turning 21?"

"Yeah, I am. It's just that I missed some of my teen years. This'll be a way to get 'em back."

"I like the way you think." he said jokingly. I laughed.

"Do you mind going to one more place?" Louis asked as we got back into his car.

I shrugged. "I guess not. Where are we going?"

He smiled. "You'll have to see."

I rolled my eyes and turned on the radio. "I love this song!" I said excitedly and started to sing along.

"In my memory, I was hurting long before we met. In my memory, they're still burning, fingerprints you left. And I always meant to say to you I can't. 

So just turn your face, until I can't see you anymore. Turn your face, until I can't see you anymore. Walk away, until you're not standing at my door. Turn your face, walk away, and stay. Turn your face. . . 

Each time I take you back, you bring one thousand cracks, and I accept them like a fool.  

So now what's your excuse? What do we have to lose? Since I'm already losing you. 

So hard to face, that I can't feel you anymore. Hard to face, that I can't see you anymore. 

So walk away, until you're not standing at my door. Turn your face, walk away, and stay. Turn your face. Turn your face and stay. . . Turn your face."

"So you know who Little Mix is, but you don't know who One Direction is?" Louis asked amused.

"Now I do." I pointed out.

"Well that wasn't all that bad." He mentioned.

"What wasn't?" I asked confused.

"Your singing. It was pretty good, actually." He complimented.

"Why thank you." I said in a posh accent.

As I gazed out the window, I watched the different cars go past until there seemed to be more trees than cars. There was lots more land around us than I ever remember seeing here. It made the journey more intriguing.

Shortly after the scenery had changed so drastically, Louis parked the car. We both got out and I looked around me. No one was around, well, unless they were hiding in a near-by tree. It wasn't like a forest of trees, but more like some kind of park. Still, I was clueless as to where we were and why we were there.

Louis motioned for me to follow him, so I stopped my sight-seeing and walked up next to him. He kept on walking, and I followed silently as I glanced around. There were some flowers here and there, but nothing extravagant. Mostly the flowers were nature grown, not petunias or anything.

I halted abruptly when I noticed Louis had stopped walking. Luckily, I'd stopped right next to him so I wasn't like 20 feet ahead or anything. As I looked straight, I saw a body of water.

"I thought you might like this, and I'm guessing you never even knew it existed." Louis said, bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah. Yeah, I had no idea about this place." I admitted. "But why are we here?"

"Because the sun is starting to set and it's really nice to watch over the lake." He explained.

I still wasn't sure why he'd brought me here, exactly, but I didn't mind. I've never witnessed a sunset and I was kind of anxious to see it. Everyone always says how lovely it is to watch, now I'll be able to state my opinion.

As I stood side-by-side next to Louis the sunset was commencing pretty quickly. It got to the point where you would see in pictures or paintings. Half of the sunset was above the water and the other have wasn't visible.

"This is beautiful." I said in awe as I continued to pay close attention.

"It is." he agreed.

Soon after our short commentary, I felt his hand brush against mine. Then, lightly, he held my dainty hand in his. My body froze as my mind processed what was happening at this very moment. Slowly, I looked over to Louis who was watching me tentatively.

"Can I kiss you?" he asked nervously.

"Can implies are you capable, may asks the question." I said softly, not really knowing how to respond so instead making a witty remark.

"Audrey, may I kiss you?" he asked turning toward me and placing his hand gently on my cheek. I swear, I stopped breathing. As I closed my eyes, his lips met mine softly, but sweetly. It was like a movie scene, but in reality.
