Charlie's POV
"Now, would you like to be a good girl and tell me what you read?" Louis asks, laying beside me. Blanket covering both him and me.
"I thought you would forget about that after.. well.. what just happened," I groan and put my hands over my face out of embarrassment and annoyance.
"I most certainly remember everything before we had.."
I glare at Louis.
"..nevermind," he chuckles "anyways, I still want answers."
"Just know that I know a few things about you now," I simplify.
"How many pages?"
"A few," I hum.
"What did they say at the top?"
"You mean the song titles, Louis?"
"They are not songs.." he mumbles angrily.
"Then what are they?"
"Repeated words."
"Louis, why didn't you tell me that you write songs? They are amazing!"
"Because it's none of your business and I don't write songs."
"Yes you do, Louis! Whether you like it or not, you have been writing songs!"
Louis rolls his eyes at me and I mock him by rolling them back.
"Please, just tell me what you read," he calmly asks, not even looking at me. I can tell he is highly annoyed with me and ready to choke me at any second, I know he won't, but he is holding back some anger.
"Fireproof, Something Great, Lies or something i don't know, Illusion, and I think one was called No Control," I tell him and he finally makes eye contact with me.
"What is 'Lies or Something'?"
"I forgot what it was called. It had the word 'lies' in it though. I remember it saying something about eyes saying things and concentrating," I shrug.
"Little White Lies?" He guesses.
I nod.
"Shit.. you read a good amount.." he mutters.
I cuddle up closer to him hoping his anger would dissolve, since he likes cuddling. He hates that he does, but it is what it is.
"You're a good writer, Louis. Don't hide that talent," I attempt to lighten up his mood but he growls instead.
"Leave me alone," he mumbles and I frown.
"Okay.." I begin to stand and he reaches his arm out to grab me.
"Don't actually leave, stay here and be close to me!" He whines and I can only manage to giggle at him.
I lay back down and cuddle him. I'm surprised he isn't really pissed at me. Especially after he discovered that I read a lot of his songs.
"I love you," he whispers to me and my heart warms and I smile at him.
"I love you, too."
"Do you really?"
"Of course I do. Didn't I tell you?"
"Yeah but you hesitated and I don't know.. I didn't feel like you meant it."
"Well I did. You know I love you, I choose you over everything."
"I don't choose you over everything.."
I frown and my heart shatters.
"You are my everything," Louis smiles proudly at his own romantic gesture and I kiss his cheek.
"Oh and uh Louis.. why didn't you want me to go through your phone?"
Louis pauses and stares at me.
"Because it's mine. I don't go through your phone."
"Lots of couples do that."
"Good thing we're not a couple."
"What?" I choke.
"I said good thing we're not a couple, so we don't have to worry about that stupid shit."
I can hardly breathe at this point. This is humiliating. I actually believed him. I was truly stupid enough to believe he actually loved me. But yet he says we are not even dating? Not even an effort? So damn pitiful. Everything.
"Bullshit. It was all bullshit. And I was the dumbass for accepting it knowing it was bullshit," I say but it comes out as more of a laugh. A sarcastic laugh because this is just ridiculous.
"What was bullshit?" He asks.
"I'm not even going to bother calling you a dumbass because we both know you already are."
"Charlie, seriously, what did I do?"
"Nothing Louis," I shake my head, still sarcastically laughing a little.
I stand from the bed, bringing the sheets to cover myself. I head over to my bag and mentally applaud myself for being too lazy to hang up my stuff here. I grab a tie dye t shirt and some sweatpants to throw on and I grab Louis' white and navy blue t shirts at the top of the pile.
"Here," I throw both shirts at him. The navy blue one hits the floor and the white one hits him.
"Charlie what the hell just happened?" Louis sits up from the bed with a really confused expression.
"You tell me, Louis. You created this confusing plot so you tell me what just happened."
"I would but I don't know!"
"You never do."
Once my sweatpants are on, I pick up my bag and walk to the door. Louis, of course, stops me to give his poor excuse.
"Charlie don't go, at least tell me what's wrong. I deserve to know."
"You deserve to know? Hell no you don't. You don't deserve anything! And you're not stupid, Louis, you can fucking figure out what's wrong. If not, then I am truly sorry for you. I know you hate that word but that is all I can say to you," I snap.
Louis has no response. Just hurt playing tricks in his eyes. It is his turn to be hurt.
"Tell me what's wrong so I can fix it.."
"You are always trying to fix something. Always try to fix what you fuck up. If I tell you, you will either do or say stupid shit to get what you want then at the end I will end up leaving anyways, so let's cut the crap and just let this be the end." I yell.
"T-the end of what?" His voice cracks.
"Us. No friends, no relationship, no nothing. Let's return to how life was before you grabbed my arm at the airport," At this point I am tired from yelling. I am so over it.
"I fucking refuse to return to life before you," Louis voice gets louder and I laugh in his face.
"Yeah right. You will have moved on from me by tonight."
"No I will not. I will love you forever, Charlie. I am in love with you. I won't let that be thrown away. I was not at all shitting you when I said I loved you."
"You weren't shitting me, you were fucking lying to me. And it's not being thrown away, this was trash to begin with."
I open the door and walk out of the room seconds before I burst into tears. The sad part is that I actually do love him. He was lying to me. He doesn't really love me. He can't even date me.
I hate Louis Tomlinson. But at the exact same time, I am in love with Louis Tomlinson.
