**Writers block sucks**

It was morning when I finally woke up. The water was running in the shower, telling me that Louis was in there. I sat up and stretched, yawning in the process. I walked into the kitchen to get a small snack. A gronola bar was on the counter. I took it and unwrapped it, not caring if Louis wanted it or not.

Today I was finally going back home. How will I get my stuff from my apartment? He will be there and probably with his wife. I frown at thought. It's crazy how fast the night changes. One second you are getting married and the next the wedding is called off and you are staying with a guy you met at the bar.

The water shuts off in the bathroom as I pour myself some tea that was sitting on the counter. Surprisingly, it's still warm. I sit at the table, resting my head in my hands. What time should I go to the apartment? Hopefully when I go, he won't be home.

Louis walks into the kitchen with shorts and a t-shirt. "Hey, what time do you want to go back?"

"In like an hour I guess," I slowly say, getting nervous at the thought. He nods his head, a frown spreading across his face.

"I'll drive you," he says. It's silent for a few seconds before he continues, "where are you going to stay?"

I think for a moment, "probably with my parents until I can find another apartment."

"You can always crash with me," he says, taking me by surprise.

I blush, "no I can't do that. Plus, we met like 2 days ago. You could be plotting to kill me."

Louis chuckles, "if I wanted to kill you, I probably would've already done that. But honestly, you can."

I give him an odd look before finishing my granola bar. I walk past him to throw out the wrapper. I have no clothes to change into so I go into the bathroom to brush my teeth. I do the same thing like I did the last time and just shove toothpaste on my finger and 'brush' my teeth. I walk out and Louis is sitting at the table, looking out the window. He doesn't notice as I walk in, so when I sit down next to him, he flinches.

We sit for awhile, not saying anything. I've taken a few days off my job for the wedding and I was planning to get a real job after, but that's not gonna happen. I won't have enough money to get an apartment.

"Can we go to my apartment now?" I ask him, breaking the silence.

"Yeah." Louis stands up, placing his mug in the sink. He grabs his keys off the counter. Louis lends me a pair of flip flops that are small on him, but still huge on me.

"Can I borrow your cell phone," I ask as we exit Louis' apartment. He takes his phone out and hands it to me. I dial in my mom's number and quickly tell her I'll be staying at home until I find another apartment. Unless Jake gets another apartment, than there's no other choice for me than to move out.

We enter his car and I give him the directions, the apartments only about 20 minutes away. He puts it in the GPS and starts driving. I didn't like traveling too much, so my wedding was pretty close to home. My parents said they were already home and apparently Jake has brought his 'wife' to our apartment. I really hope he isn't home. My stomach is starting to hurt and I'm starting to develop a headache that worsens every second. I put my head in my hands.

Louis glances over at me, "hey, are you alright?"

I look up at him, giving in  a weak smile," I don't even know, I feel like I'm going to die."

"You know, you don't have to do this so fast. It's been like two days," Louis says, rubbing my back.

"I know, but I just want to get it over with."
