A few days had gone by and i had only seen Louis once. He was super busy and I'd been rushed off my feet too. I was trying too keep the cafe running, I didn't have money troubles but there was a new café opening over the road and I needed something to keep my reputation.

Competition sucks.

I rang Louis as soon as I had a brain wave, tapping my foot nervously and in anticipation.

"Hey Babe." His voice calmly rang through my phone.

"LOUIS" I screamed down the line of the phone, before cringing at the patchiness of my voice. "Shit sorry. I need a favour from you and the boys?"

"And what would that be love?" He chuckled quietly at my reaction.

"Well. I'm losing a few customers due to the new cafe opening and i was wondering if you & the boys would do an acoustic concert here. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee?" I practically begged over the phone.

"Uh , yeah why not." His voice was coming from behind me and I quickly turned around giving him a back breaking hug.

"Hey." I blushed as he kissed me on the cheek. The boys were standing behind him and I gave them a small wave as I took a step back.

"So when do you want us to do it?" Louis asked as walked to the counter.

"Tonight?" I smiled cheekily over to them all. He looked behind him and to the boys and they all simultaneously nodded.

"I'll tweet it!" Liam screamed and I couldn't help but laugh at his sillyness.

"You nervous Lou." We were sitting drinking some coffee before it started, having a little chat before he'd go on the stage and perform.

"no, it doesn't faze me anymore, I love performing and they love us, so I don't feel the need to get nervous." He shrugged while giving me a small smile. The shop was full of teenage girls and they were all screaming, I new I'd have a massive headache at the end of this. I walked up to the stage and the boys followed me which just made the girls scream louder.

"Uh, hey guys. One directions here, as you know, um, anyway I hope you enjoy it."  I took a slow step back and made my way behind the counter where I carried on serving the whole time they were singing. I had spilled a few glasses of milk while i was pretty much drooling over Louis. Luckily all the guests understood and chuckled at me. Louis would occasionally wink and me and i'd stick my tongue out at him in return.

They finally sang What makes you beautiful and I sang along to it while making some more cake batter through the back. I heard them stop there set and Louis announce something over the mic. My eyes averted to the door and my feet followed them.

"The gorgeous girl who sorted this out is the owner of this wonderful bakery, she's also a very talented singer and if she would i'd like to sing with her." Louis quietly spoke over the mic and the crowd went silent as I walked out and stared at him, shaking my head.

Holy shit.

Jack pushed me on the stage, even though I dug my heels in. Liam stood up and i slowly took his seat, while all the other boys walked off the stage, just leaving us up there.

"Uh, hi guys." I said much quieter and the crowd remained silent. I took a deep breath and shot a sidewardglare at Louis, who just grinned at me. I shook my head, not really believing this and took another deep breath.

The music finally started and Foundation by Kate Nash came through the speakers. I smiled at Louis as I remembered telling him that i loved this song. He began the song and i soon joined in. I kept my eyes close as i would hit the high notes, hoping my voice wouldn't crack.

Liam was videoing, us. Or maybe just me. I let it slip and I finally opened my eyes to see the crowd staring at me, mouths open. I let out a little giggle in the middle of chorus and I hadn't even noticed Louis had stopped singing and was watching me in awe as well. I took over the whole song, when song finished and the crowd erupted into cheers.

"Thankyou." I whispered into his ear as i skipped off stage and walked out of the back. The crowd started to depart and the boys had disappeared and i was just left with Louis. He wanted to help me stay behind and clear up, I didn't deny the help as I wanted to spend some more time i with him. I put on some music in the background and began singing to myself. I smiled at the memory of tonight, realising I really enjoyed being on the stage.

"Louis!" I shouted, and he came charging through to the kitchen.

"Yeah?" He shouted back, right in my face and I chuckled at his childishness.

"Thanks for tonight! I really enjoyed it." I answered him, giving him a smile.

"Yeah, i did too." He said chuckling, before looking into my eyes.

"Whats so funny?" I said as i playfully punched him on the arm, before blushing.

"You're just beautiful and you don't even see it." He said smiling at me and I couldn't help but look at the floor as the blush on my cheeks deepened.

"I like you Lil." He said as he lifted my chin up. I couldn't help but smile as I looked into his blue eyes.

"I like you to, boo bear." He gave me a warm smile as I brought him closer to me wrapping my arms around his torso for a hug. Louis phone began to ring, he grumbled but answered it.

"No Li, were still at the café... Okay...Your kidding?BRILLIANT!" Louis hung up and had a huge grin on his face, which I automatically mirrored as it was to contagious not too.

"What?" I said, cautiously as he continued fiddling with his phone. "What you doing Tomlinson?"

"LILIANE ROSE MATTHEWS - FOUNDATIONS FT LOUIS TOMLINSON." I pressed play, hands slightly shaking.

What the hell?

I was on youtube, I looked yo to Louis and just gawked at him and then back at his phone, repeating myself until he took it back before showing me something else, which had my jaw dropping even lower.

I'd received over 2,000,000 views in just 2 hours, I new the main reason was because I was with Louis, but what? That's barbaric.

I couldn't even comprehend what was happening until Louis picked me up and spun round in a circle, while laughing.

"Lils..." He quietly whispered as he set me down on the ground, but not loosing his grip from around my waist.

"Mhhhm?" I said staring in to his ocean eyes, realising I found it way too easy to just disappear in to them.

"Will you please be my girlfriend?" He mumbled, quietly.

"No." QI simply answered, no emotion.

"Oh." He said, sadly.

"Will you be MY boyfriend?" I asked back, grinning at his reaction. He shot his head up at me, grin growing to match mine,

"YES!" He screamed as he picked me up again and spun me round and i couldn't even but giggle.

He gently placed me down and i wrapped my arms around his neck before bringing his lips down to mine, capturing them in a passionate kiss.
