*Eleanor's P.O.V.*
Okay so maybe I over reacted. I knew he liked her. Why was I letting it get to me? "Louis isn't around, that's why" I mumbled, annoyed with myself for letting my feelings get to far. Maybe I should talk to Zayn? Or Perrie? Nahh, I'll explain later but that wasn't who I wanted to see.
I pulled on my IPhone and text Louis
Where are you?
Eleanorxx
At home, more family stuff . Why?
Louisxx
Could I come over? I need someone to talk to!
Eleanorxx
Sure babe, c'ya soon (:
Louisxxx
Content that he was at home and I could see him, I dragged my body out from my black and white blankets and stood beside my bed for a second. I looked down at myself and realized I was still wearing my pj's. Not going to see Louis in this, I thought. I dressed in jeans and a cute top. Slipped on my toms and brushed through my long, chocolate hair with my fingers, hoping there wasn't any knots.
*Perrie's P.O.V*
Me and Zayn were the only ones in the living room. Harry and Cassie wanted to go to the fair, I assumed as a date but was told otherwise but the two love birds. Isy and Niall were both hungry and went together to Nando's. Louis hasn't returned and Eleanor was still hiding away in her room.
I heard a creak coming from the old stairs, and my blue eyes found their way to see Eleanor coming down, looking away from us. "I'll be back later guys..." She spoke softly and barely glances our way before leaving our, once was, normal home. The door clicked and was shut. I blinked, and lets the brush of air that came in sweep around me.
"Zayn.. can we talk for a minute? About what happened?" I questioned, looking back at him. His eyes were still looking at the door and his bottom lips was slightly quivering. The poor thing looked like he was about to cry.
His brown eyes slowly trailed across the living room to find mine. "Yeah, sure" His accent came out more, as he tensed, leaning agaist the couch.
"Zayn, I-I.. I like you too." The smile played at the corners of my lips but his was a full on grin, filled with so much more then just happiness. I felt butterflies in my stomach and tried ever so hard to ignore them while we both leaned in....
*Eleanor's P.O.V*
Well, darn! I knew I forgot something! I was walking quickly back to the house while trying to dig out my keys from my big bag of a purse. Finally I pulled them out and places them in the lock. With a final twist of the key the door opened and I stepped inside. "Hey guys, so-" I was cut off by my own lack of air. I gasped not expected what I saw. I guess she heard me, because Perrie pulled back fast and stared at me, her blue eyes full of guilt and nervousness. Zayn then looked at me to, opening his mouth to explain, but I held up my hand to stop him.
"Don't. Just, don't. I don't want to hear it." My ankle was still swollen and a little more then a bit sore, but I jogged up the stairs to my room and grabbed my phone from my bed and went back downstairs. I bit my lip, looking away from the couple trying to keep the tears from spilling down my cheeks. “Eleanor, can’t -” I stopped Perrie, not wanting to hear the excuses and let my mind take over, not thinking about what I said.
“Perrie, just stop. You know what you did. I don’t want to hear the lame excuses. If you’re happy with him, fine. The only part is, why don’t you remember what we always said? Don’t let a guy ruin our friendship. I liked him, you knew that. So, you broke our friendship.” Without another word, or a glance back at them, I left slamming the door behind me and drove to Louis’.
