Luck Turns ~ A Louis Tomlinson Fanfiction ~

Chapter 26 - First Date

VIOLET'S POV

The last two hours have been manic! All five girls have been running around upstairs, helping me get ready. Finally, I'm dressed, made up, and hairstyled to perfection, and the girls release me from their makeupish clutches.

"Gentlemen, our masterpiece." Deanna and Hannah present me to the boys as I walk down the stairs.

Four mouths hit the floor, and the fifth person in the room struggles to free himself from Harry and Niall's restraining grasps making him face away from me. Liam and Zayn come up to me, saying how beautiful I look and how good of a job the girls did getting me ready. Suck ups. Harry and Niall both give me thumbs up, and that's enough force off of him that Louis can wrench himself free and turn to see me.

I wouldn't be amazed if tomorrow we find a dent in the floor where his mouth dropped. He slowly approaches me, reaching a hand out to gently brush my cheek. I grab it and keep it there, smiling at him. He wraps his other arm around my waist, and I let go of his hand on my face.

"We'll be back by midnight!" Louis hollers over his shoulder as we both walk out the door. "USE PROTECTION!!" Six voices yell after us, and I can hear Deanna and Liam reprimanding the others for being inappropriate pigs as the door closes. I just laugh at them and move closer into Louis's side.

"Where are we going?" I ask Lou curiously as we step into the elevator. "That's for me to know and you to find out." he says, tapping the side of his nose and smiling impishly. I pout a bit. "Secrets secrets are no fun unless you share with me!" I point to myself and stick my tongue out at him. He bursts out laughing at my childishness. I just pout some more.

We step out of the elevator and exit the lobby to find a gleaming black limo sitting on the curb, waiting for us.

"Are you serious?" I say, shocked. He nods, grinning, and helps me into the car like a true gentleman. The inside is smooth brown leather, complete with a mini fridge and cup holders. Louis jumps in next to me and knocks on the glass partition that separates us from the driver. The car moves off into traffic, and Louis and I settle back into our seats for the ride. Me pestering him the whole time about where we're of course.

We drive for about fifteen minutes, then I feel the limo come to a stop. I look out the window, and the River Thames greets me, sparkling outside my window. Predominant in the picture though, is a huge boat, moored to the dock we're pulled up to.

"Are you serious?" I ask again, apparently unable to do anything but repeat myself. He laughs and nods again, steering me up the gangplank, and onto the deck. Ship hands undo the ropes, the motors start to churn, and the boat hums to life beneath me as we slowly pull out into the wide part of the river, where we can see the lit up buildings of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.

Louis gently guides me to a table and chairs I just noticed, complete with candles, and most importantly, steaming hot food in the center. My favorite foods are spread out over the table, including, I see, quite a few plates containing something with carrots in it. Awesomeness defined right there.

As we're both sitting down, the ship's horn blows and the engines start to chug again. The boat moves further out into the river, and now I can barely see the shores.

We both serve ourselves, and the ship's workers retreat from our view. I feel like Louis and I are the only two people in the world up here.

When we're done eating (or should I say stuffing our faces, Hannah and Niall must've rubbed off on us) we make our way to the back of the boat, running our hands through the still water.

"This is perfect." I sigh, looking out at the lights of London visible on the horizon.

"You are." Louis whispers to me. He kisses me, and the world truly melts away, the only sensation I can feel Louis' lips on mine. Fireworks go off behind my closed eyes as I tangle my hands in his soft hair.

When we finally break apart for air, he keeps his forehead resting on mine. We just stand there for a few minutes, hands intertwined, smiling at each other like the idiots we are.

Eventually, we find our way to the edge of the boat. We take off our shoes and dangle our feet in the water. Laying my head on Lou's shoulder, I look up at the stars and decide that this moment could not get any better.

Suddenly, I feel something wet splash me in the face. I take my head off Lou's shoulder to see him with his hand in the water, smiling like a demon. He splashes me again, and this time it catches me in the shoulders. My mouth drops open in gleeful shock and surprise, then I suddenly reach down and splash him back.

"You're gonna get it now Henning!" he laughs, splashing me with both hands. I scramble away from the wave he's created. "Bring it Tomlinson!" I laugh back, getting a splash right in his face.

We end up having a splash war, which of course I win. Thank god the girls used waterproof makeup. He might've let me win though. Or he might've just been too busy laughing to even bother trying.

Finally, it's time for this magical adventure to end. Louis and I dried off with some towels we found on the boat, so we don't soak the limo.

"Smile!" Louis says to me, and I do just that as the camera on his phone clicks. He types away for a minute, and I glance over his shoulder to read his new tweet.

It's actually a really good picture of us, thank god. "Put girlfriend." I say, still reading over his shoulder. He glances at me to see if I'm sure. "Hey it's not like they don't know me." I point out. "This is true. OK, girlfriend it is." Louis acknowledges as he hits the 'Tweet' button.

A few seconds later, my phone goes off with a mention. I open it to see the tweeter from Louis.

"@Louis_Tomlinson: Me and my beautiful girlfriend @vihenning <3 had fun on our first date!!"

Within the next few seconds, my phone is spammed with notifications from Twitter as people respond to the tweet, freaking out over the fact that Louis is once again taken. That feels so good to say, that Louis is mine. It just feels...right.

So.... THEY WENT ON A DATE!!!

And I liked it. I thought it was adorable, kinda like boobear (:

Anyways, sorry I haven't updated all week, just been busy. I also felt like I was getting sick yesterday and Tuesday, but I'm better now!!! I hate being sick, it irritates me. But on the plus side I do get extra sleep... Always a good thing.

Enough of my ramblings though!! I'll double check the comments on the last chapter when I get home from school to see if anyone said the boat idea. I haven't looked in a while SORRY!!!! If anyone said it, I'll dedicate this to you when I can (:

Love forever,
