Good Boy

Chapter 69

Charlie's POV

I reach over across the bed to find that Louis isn't there. Where could he be? I hate when I don't wake up beside him in the morning. Simply because I never know what he is up to.

I take this as an opportunity to call Linda and explain why I haven't returned and how things turned out. She deserves to know because she has truly been so helpful.

"Hello?" Linda's perky voice says through the line.

"Hey, I'm back with Louis!" I reveal.

"Ah I knew you would pick him," she laughs "how are things going?"

"Pretty good. I caught him in the middle of a fight outside yesterday shortly after I left your place. He was protecting someone, how sweet is that?"

"Is he alright?"

"Yeah, he's fine. Bruises are still there but they don't seem to affect him. And guess what!"

"What?"

"..me and him are getting a house together!"

"No freaking way!"

I am way too excited for this but I don't care. Me and Louis are getting our own apartment. Just us two. I smile mad hard and rest my arm on my forehead before responding to Linda.

"He asked me to live with him as I was heading out the door to return to your place. He said he wants to see me everyday and he's been thinking about this for awhile," I squeal.

"Have you thought it through?" She asks quizzedly and I eye my phone before putting it back on my ear.

"Yeah, I would love to live with him. It will change alot in our relationship."

"Okay then, as long as you're happy with the situation. I'm so happy for you!" She congratulates me and I beam.

Louis walks into the bedroom and closes the door behind him. He raises an eyebrow at me and I hold a finger up, gesturing for him to wait a minute.

"Thank you! And is it okay if I stop over some time today to pick up my things? Sorry for moving in and out of your apartment," I apologize to her.

"Who's on the phone?" Louis mouths and I hold a finger to my mouth so he stays silent.

"It's no problem, I did the same thing for a while."

I love how understanding she is.

"Thank you so much. Uh Louis just got back so.."

"Say no more," she laughs "see you later, bye!"

She hangs up the phone as do I. Louis walks over to me and pecks my lips before speaking.

"Who was that?" He asks again.

"Linda," I answer and toss my phone to the side.

"What were you guys talking about?" he takes off his black hoodie and throws it to the corner of the room, revealing a white t shirt underneath before he lays across my lap on the bed.

"I was just catching her up on things," I tell him "where were you?"

"I had a phonecall," he smiles at me.

"Who called?"

He beams at me before I caught the hint on what he's talking about.

"They called back about the house?" My eyes widen.

Louis nods and my smile spreads from ear to ear as I try to control myself from screaming.

"What did they say?" I pull a hair behind my ear as I urge Louis to tell me details.

"They said to come down at about 4:30 pm to check the house out," Louis tells me but I cut him off by squealing and bending down to wrap my arms around him and he laughs at my excited outburst.

"We're going to have our own apartment," I slowly say to fully comprehend the fact and take the time to breathe and realize this is not a dream.

"Glad you're happy," Louis twists his fingers in my hair and I smile into his chest.

"What time is it now?" I ask him and he pulls his phone out of his pocket and checks the time.

"It is 12:47," he tosses his phone on the end of the bed.

"I should probably get ready," I peck Louis' lips before getting out of bed.

"What are you going to wear?" He teases me about the fact that I basically wear his clothes all the time. Only because my bag is at Linda's and all of my other older clothes is still at my dad's.

I'm going to have to face him again. To pick up my things from my old room. He probably hates me now but I honestly miss him so much and I want to tell him about everything that's happened since I last saw him. Leaving as much negativity out of it as I possibly can.

"Whatever is clean," I answer honestly as we both laugh and I head to the bathroom for a shower.

Once I close Louis' door behind me, I run into Niall in the hall with a few boxes in hand.

"Hey," he greets me and I smile and wave awkwardly.

"You aren't avoiding me are you? I didn't want things to change between us.."

"No, I just feel guilty, that's all," I explain to him.

"Guilty for what?" Louis opens his bedroom door and says through gritted teeth.

I haven't told Louis that I kissed Niall. I technically wasn't with Louis at the time but it would still piss him off. It's not nearly as bad as what he did to me. And plus Niall kissed me, not the other way around. It was a quick and small moment anyways, Louis would make it a bigger deal than it actually is. Why even bother?

"Guilty for... not having time to help Niall with the boxes," I lie.

Niall opens his mouth to say something but then closes it, pressing his lips into a thin line and nodding.

I see sadness reaching his blue eyes before he turns and continues walking down the hall.

"What the hell was that about?" Louis turns me to face him and I take a breath before answering.

"He probably just has a lot on his mind, Louis. Nothing to worry about," I kiss his cheek before walking to the bathroom.

Niall doesn't deserve being lied about. But he doesn't understand how long Louis will go on about the situation. Niall said it was just a silly crush anyways, Louis wouldn't get that. I don't want Niall to get hurt over me.

It's official. I am crap at updating. Do you think Charlie should tell Louis about the kiss? Personally, I think she should. But I'm not Charlie ((; lol love you guys x
