Worth the Payne

Chapter 15 - A Walk in The Park

*Liam's POV – One month later*

We've been on tour for a month now, we still have two concerts to go. I'm slowly getting better. I'm not moving on but I'm not living in the past. Moping around isn't going to bring her back and I need to get back to normal. The boys have been so supportive but it's still really hard. I brought the frame of me and Kyla and the ultrasound picture on tour. It's stuck up in my bunk so when I look up, they're still there with me. I still think about what the baby is and what I think they'll look like. I get called to sound check for tonight but Louis has decided to bail on us and snuck out somewhere. I wonder where he went, probably to get ice cream or call El.

*Lou's POV*

I've been trying so hard to find Kyla. It took me forever to start though. I didn't know where, I tried getting the security camera footage from the airport but I lost her before she got to her terminal. I keep hitting dead ends so I took a break. I knew I should be at sound check but I needed to clear my head. I didn't want to tell them what I was doing in case I got their hopes up and I failed. I'm now walking the beautiful streets of France but I'm cheering myself up much. I sit down on a bench and sigh. I hear a woman walk past me and I look up. She's glowing. Her baby bump is gorgeous, she would be close to seven months pregnant and her brown hair is flowing elegantly behind her. I swear I've seen that hair before....and that walk. Kyla? I do a bit of maths in my head. Yes she would be about 7 months pregnant by now. I get up and start chasing after the woman. It has to be Kyla. I tap the woman's shoulder and she turns around. It is Kyla. My mouth mirrors hers as it drops. I go to speak but she starts running. I hear something drop to the ground and so I bend down and pick it up before chasing after her again. I lose her at a pedestrian crossing as the light turned red for me. I look down at the object I picked up before. It is a hotel key. I turn it over and start walking to the hotel. I look at the room number and take the elevator to the second level. I was mildly recognised so I took a few photos before heading towards the room. I step out of the elevator and turn to my right. I take a few steps before coming face to face with her. I look up in disbelief. I couldn't believe it. I had found her. I had actually found her. I hugged her and I really didn't want to let go.

*Kyla's POV*

I couldn't believe he had found me. What was he doing in France? I had seen him in the park but ran. He shouldn't be here. I realised I dropped my key when I got to my room. I turned back around to go to the lobby and there he was. He hugged me and I hugged back but I let go.

"Louis you need to leave. He'll come after you if he sees you"

"No Kyla, I'm not going anywhere"

"No Louis, you have to go"

"Ok, he walks down the wall but not towards the elevator. He walks past me towards my room and opens it with the key. He walks in and leaves the door open for me. I follow him in and see him sitting on the couch. I shut the door behind me and asked him to leave again.

"Louis, leave now and forget you ever saw me. He will come after you"

"No he won't"

"Yes he will! Don't you get it? Why do you think I ran?! He was serious about hurting you guys" I yell at him.

"Kyla, he's dead. He did in a car accident the day after you left"

I'm stunned. I grasp the counter before looking at Louis.

"What?" I whisper

"It's true, we had no way to tell you though. We've wanted you to come home for ages"

"I could have come home months ago?"

"Yes" I sit down on the couch next to Louis trying to take it all in. I could have been home months ago. All this pain could have ended so long ago.

"Louis, how did you find me?"

"We are on tour here. I've been looking for you for months. I made a promise to myself that I'd bring you back home for everyone. I honestly wasn't looking for you today though. I went for a walk and there you were"

Tour? I didn't even know. I don't go on social media anymore in case someone found my account.
"Does that mean Liam is in France too?" I ask hopeful

Louis nods at me.

"How is he? Does he hate me?" I ask looking down sadly

"No he doesn't hate you. He's coping, he was really broken for a while there but he's slowly coming back together. How are you?"

"Pretty much the same Louis"

We continue talking for two hours before Louis asks

"Kyla, are you coming home now?"

I honestly had to think about it. I don't know if Liam would accept me back even if that's all I wanted. But with tears coming down my face I said yes.

*Lou's POV – one hour later*

I had just gotten back to the tour bus from Kyla's. I ran straight into Simon so I explained everything to him. He stubbornly forgave me and agreed to my plan to reunite Kyla and Liam. Next I ran into the boys but they said Liam was in bed. It was perfect timing I thought. I also explained everything to them, why I missed sound check, why I was late now, how Kyla was coming home.

"What? You found her?!" Niall exclaimed.

I shushed him.

"We have to tell Liam now" Harry said making his way to Liam's bunk.

I pulled him and sat him back down.

"No I have a plan. She needs to get ready, she's coming home with us but not today". I huddle them in and tell them the plan. We leave to get ready for tonight's concert but I send El a quick message before leaving.

"I kept my promise babe. She's coming home"

A/N - WHOO! Double update and yay! They found her. She's coming home. Enjoy guys xx
