I Love You ~ Louis Tomlinson

Forever

~~ A/N Okay so I know this doesn't fit with the actual timeline of how things went in One Direction, but this book is fake so lets pretend like they were well rested and had time off in between touring and all that :) 

Also this is the second to last chapter. Hope you enjoy it and feel free to tell me what you think :) Those of you who have gotten this far make my heart so happy and the comments do too! It's amazing to see people enjoying this book. I didn't think anyone would ever read it so thank you very much <3 ~~

Natalie has officially been living at Louis' for three months now. It hasn't all been smooth sailing, they've had a few disagreements here and there, but overall they've doing really well and they've found a new normal.

Louis has just started back in the studio again and Natalie has somewhat started her photography business. Right now it's mostly just friends and family and word of mouth, but that's more than fine with her. Lottie has been helping her with bigger projects since she's also in school. Her courses aren't too hard and she enjoys what she's learning.  

Everything now feels so real, which it is, but getting to see it first hand is a different kind of beautiful she didn't expect. She wasn't sure what a life with Louis would mean, but so far it's been nothing short of wonderful. 

They're lucky enough right now that they're busy enough so they aren't bored, but not so busy that it's overwhelming. They go to sleep most nights together and wake up together which is one of her favorite parts of the day. 

They usually laze around in bed for close to an hour before finally getting up. Louis usually gets up first and makes them a cup of tea and then climbs back in bed to cuddle her and talk some more. About another half hour after that she'll get up and make them something for breakfast. She only makes fancy meals on Sundays and Louis' recently taught her how to make a proper English fry up. 

Sometimes they'll have his family or friends over on the weekend, but week days like today are usually cereal or Eggo waffles. Sometimes she'll make something more involved like oatmeal or pancakes, but Louis' usually good with keeping it simple in the mornings. 

"Do you mind making toast today?" Louis asks, kissing her lips once he makes his way into the ensuite to get ready for the day. "I'm feeling toast."

"I think I can manage that," she shrugs, sliding out of his way. 

"Where are you going?" He asks when she goes to leave the bathroom. 

She looks at him confused, "The toast?"

"I didn't mean now. You can't leave me here by myself," he whines and then a shocked look comes over his face. "When did I get so clingy?"

"When did you meet me again?" She teases, but then really answers him. "It's fine to want attention from your girlfriend Lou and you know I'm more than happy to stay with you."

"Its not too much?" He asks, popping his toothbrush in his mouth.

"Never," she says, hopping up on the counter next to him and nudging him with her foot. He grabs her ankle with his free hand and thumbs over it, smiling at her around the toothbrush.

It really doesn't bother her because she's honestly just as clingy. It works for them being around each other all the time. Neither of them like to be alone and so they compliment each other well. 

"You know how much I love you right? Moved to a whole other country to be with you every day," she points out. 

"Yeah, I guess that's true," he smiles coyly. 

Once Louis is done in the bathroom she goes into the kitchen to make their toast and a second cup of tea. Louis definitely makes it better, but she's learning and he says she's doing really well. He joins her again once he's dressed and they bring their breakfast to the couch where they inevitably end up cuddling again.
