Broken Promises

Chapter 5

Louis POV

"I don't understand", Zayn said, "Mikayla knows that she's allergic to lilies. When the man gives them to her, she'll realize the mistake and not take them. Problem solved".

"Problem not solved, Zayn. I gave the delivery person specific instructions. He is supposed to hide the flowers behind his back until she closes her eyes. He is also supposed to put them in her hand and tell her to smell them. So, Mikayla won't actually see the flowers until she is already holding them".

Niall stiffled a laugh, and Zayn smiled.

"Well, Louis. That probably wasn't the best idea. Why did you do that?"

"I wanted it to be a surprise", I said, looking at the ground.

"Well, when she ends up in the hopsital, I think she'll be surprised".

Niall and Zayn laughed at their little joke that I didn't think was funny.

"I don't think you two realize the severity of this".

"What do you mean?"

"She's only deathly allergic to 2 things. Mushrooms and lilies".

"What happens exactly?" 

Mikayla POV

"Flower delivery".

It was 6 in the afternoon, and I was exhausted from work. The rest of my co-workers had gone out for drinks, but I wasn't in the mood. After my fight with Louis, I just wanted to talk to him. But, he was being stubborn, and I was annoyed with him right now. I was also annoyed at whoever this could be at my door right now. I was only wearing a sports bra and some jeans, so I hoped whoever this was didn't expect me to look good.

"What?", I said, rather rudely when I answered the door.

It was Kaulin.

"Oh, hey".

"Hey there", he smiled.

His left hand was behind his back.

"What are you doing here?"

"Well, I was out jogging", that would explain why he was shirtless and sweating right now, "when some man began walking up towards your door. I assumed that it was your boyfriend and introduced myself".

Louis was here?! Maybe that would explain why he was being a dick right now. He wanted to surprise me.

"Well, it wasn't", my expression turned solemn, "but he said that he had a lot of other deliveries to make. So, he asked me to give them to you mysef. I said it was no problem".

"Give me what?", I asked, still a little depressed that Louis hadn't been outside my door.

"Close your eyes", he smiled, slyly.

I was confused, but did as he asked. I felt what I assumed were flowers being put into my hands.

"Now, take a big whiff".

I put my face into them and smelled as hard as I could. My eyes quickly opened, and I was horrified. I immediately threw them down and stood back. Kaulin's expression turned scared.

"What's wrong?"

"ARE THOSE LILIES?"

"Well, I don't know flowers very well, but I think so".

"WHY WOULD YOU GIVE THOSE TO ME?"

"The delivery man told me to".

"Delivery man?! Who sent them?!"
