Come along they said, itll be fun they said. You were sitting with Your bestfriend Danielle and her new boyfriend Liam. They had invited you to come to dinner with them, along with Liams friend Louis. You chatted with Louis while the other two were oblivious to the two of yous existence. You guys got on well, he was quite funny.
When dinner was over Louis offered to walk you home. You told him it was quite a hike but he said he couldnt let you go alone. You didnt protest. You two were walking and just making small chat. You were not a shy person so you decided to try and learn more about him.
"Louis, lets have a deep talk." He looked at you quizzically. You giggled and explained.
"We talk about things that are very personal and can be considered our biggest secrets." He laughed nervously.
"But we barely know each other." He stated
"Thats the point, Its helps us get to know each other. Gain trust." He smiled.
"Alright. You first." You thought about what to talk about. Finally you sighed.
You told him about how you lost your best friend. How she had cancer and died at age 15. You told him how much you missed her and how youve never been the same since she passed. But you knew she was your guardian angel.
After you finished he said he was sorry and stopped to hug you. You shrugged it off and told him it was his turn.
He told you about how he watched his best friend battle depression. He told you about how he always saw his scars and would get phone calls in the middle of the night from him saying he was done. And he would talk to him until he knew he was going to be ok. Then one day he didnt have his phone but when he checked the next morning he had a missed call. His mum came to his room to tell him that his friend had killed himself. This all happened last year.
You stopped and had a long hug. You guys kept telling your deepest secrets until you were both out of them. Then you talked about happier things likes your interests.
When you finally arrived at your house you both exchanged phone numbers and hugged goodbye. Once inside you got a text from him. You texted all night.
You smiled thinking back to the night when you met your best friend Louis. Just then he walked in the door of your apartment and flopped on the couch next to you. You guys had been friends now for 3 years. And little did he know that you had a massive crush on him.
He stuck his tongue out at you and you ruffled his hair.
"Well hello to you too." He gave you a sassy face and you laughed.
The two of you sat and watched movies all night, just like you did every Thursday. You laughed at the comedy's and cried at the chick flick Louis brought over. Finally after the 5th movie Louis clicked off the TV and turned towards you.
"I think it's time to have a deep talk." He stated.
"Why Lou, something on your mind?" He nodded so you motioned for him to go first.
"Theres this girl. I cant stop thinking about her. I think about her before I go to sleep, when i wake up and pretty much all day." You heart fell. You had a feeling he liked this girl Eleanor. She was his fake girlfriend for press reason but lately you had been thinking he was actually falling for her.
"Her smile makes me smile, when she crys my heart breaks. She makes my life perfect." He continued. You fake smiled.
"Whats her name?" You pretended to be excited. He grabbed your hand and blushed. You got confused.
"Its you nicole" He looked down and blushed even more. Your heart started beating a mile a minute. You took a shaking breathe.
"My turn." You took another breathe.
"Theres this guy, he's the reason behind my smile, he makes me laugh everyday. And meeting him three years ago was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. That guy is you Louis." He looked up and smiled.
He pulled you closer and cupped your face. His eyes fluttering shut as yours did seconds later. Finally your lips connected and your heart beat even faster. When you slowly pulled away you rested your foreheads together. You smiled as did he. He grabbed your hand and rested against his chest were his heart was. You could feel the beating.
" Thats what you do to me" He said smiling. You grabbed his hand and put it on your heart.
"You do the same to me"
"I love you Nic"
"I love you too Lou."
