XOXO

Chapter 3

**louis point of view**
"Louis! Harry! Niall! Wake up" Liam called.
I ignored him and fell back asleep.
"Where is Lou?"harry said.
"Layla's room, again!" Niall said.
**Liam's point of view**
"Those two" i shook my head.
Layla came out of her bedroom and was dragging louis behind her. Louis got up and threw Layla over shouldered and tackled her onto the couch.
"Louis! Put a shirt on" i said as they laughed at whatever it was that was so funny.
"Liam let him be" harry said to me.
I raised an eyebrow and shook my head.
Louis was tickling Layla. Children.
"Stop louis!" Layla giggled.
"I cant take this any more!" Niall said and he walked into the kitchen.
Louis stopped and Layla was quiet.
**louis' point of view**
"Have you guys seen this?" I said holding up a magazine.
Layla grabbed it.
"Tomlinson fights for Payne's little sister?" Was on the cover.
"Ya there is a whole story on it" Liam said.
"Its all over the internet too" Niall said.
I got up and threw the magazine on the table. And shrugged.
I made breakfast for Layla and i.
"Here love" i turned around to give her breakfast.
"Thank you" she kissed my cheek.
"Whats this?" I said rolling up her sleeve. "A tattoo is it?"
"Yes Lou"she said rolling up her sleeve even more.
"Doesn't Liam have the same one?" I asked.
"Mhmm. We got it together" she said.
It was the feather tattoo that Liam had. Only Layla's was smaller.
"Only one?" I asked
"No" she looked down at her wrist.
"How come i never notice this one?" I said taking her hand.
She shrugged. It said "Payne 1993". Im guessing for her and Liam since they are twins.
"You and Liam?" I asked
Layla nodded.
"Is that it?"
She nodded her head yes.
"I like it" i said and kissed her forehead.
"What are the plans for today?" She asked.
"Bar" i said.
"Alright. Im going to go get ready" she left the room.
**Layla's point of view**
I went into the bathroom and plugged in my curler and wash my face. I put on some make up and got dressed. I was wearing skinny jeans and a nice top. I started curling my hair when louis walked in.
"You look nice love" he said as i let go of the clamp and a perfect curl draped down my shoulder.
"Not So bad yourself" i said playing with his feathery hair.
I turned back around and finished my hair. Louis sat on the counter and just watched me.
"What?" I said.
"Nothing" he said smiling.
"Are you sure love?" I teased.
"Im sure"
I finished my hair and sprayed hairspray in it.
I walked into my bedroom and got my knee high boots. I zipped them up and the boys and i headed out the door.
I went on twitter and tweeted "heading out with these boys @niallhoran @louist91 @harrystyles & @liampayne"
Niall was driving, liam was in the passenger seat and i sat between harry and louis.
When we got their it was 5:00. Louis headed over to the bar and liam and i sat down.
"Not up for a drink?" I asked him.
"Nope some one has to drive" Liam said."whats your reason?"
"Not up for it" i shrugged.
"Well that makes two of us" he said.
I went on my phone and took a selfie with Liam. I posted it on Instagram and captioned it "my brother is better than yours😝" within five minutes it got over a thousand likes.
It had already been three hours at the bar and Liam and i were getting sleepy.
"Lets go home lay" he said.
"What about the boys" i asked.
"They will find a ride, plus harry usually isn't that drunk" he said.
"Alright" i said and we left.
I got home and changed into my pajamas and turned on a movie.
"What are you watching?" Liam said and sat next to me.
"Finding Nemo" i laughed.
"I remember when we were little and this was all that we watched" he smiled. "Those days when you always wore a tiara and pretended to be the queen's daughter"
I laughed looking back at that.
I heard a bunch of laughing outside and a girl.
Liam looked out the window.
"Layla go to your room!" Liam said.
"What why?" I asked.
"Just go I'm trying to protect you!"he yelled.
I walked to my room and i knew Liam only wanted me to be safe and happy.
The boys walked in and i heard a bunch of yelling. It was Liam and louis.
I walked into the kitchen. Liam saw me.
"Lay-" Liam began to say.
"Who is this?" I said pointing to some girl who was holding louis hand and louis had his arm around her. She kissed him and he kissed her back.
I ran out of the room and slammed my bedroom door.
"Layla open the door its your brother" Liam knocked on my door.
I opened it. Tears streaming down my face.
He shut the door behind him.
"Come her lay. Its gonna be okay" he said and he hugged me.
I said nothing i just cried in Liam's arms.
"Is she gone?" I asked.
"Yeah shes gone" Liam said.
"Alright" i said.
"Get some rest." Liam said and he tucked me in and kissed my forehead. He was such a good brother.
I fell asleep with tears streaming down my face.
**Layla's point of view (still)**
I woke up that morning later than usual and i remembered what happened last night.
I got out of bed and went to the kitchen.
"Morning lay" Liam said.
"Hey li" i said and hugged him.
I walked over to the pantry and got some cereal. I poured it in a bowl and poured milk in it. I sat down in the living room and watched the rest of finding nemo.
"Morning love" louis said and tried to kiss me. I pushed him away and ignored him.
"Whats her problem?" He asked harry.
"Check your camera roll Lou"harry said with attitude.
Louis cursed a million times in one sentence.
"Layla, I'm so sorry. I was drunk and-"he started.
"Just leave me alone louis" i said and i poured my cereal on him and gave him the bowl. I walked out of the living room and into my room. I slammed the door shut.
**Liam's point of view**
"Woah. What happened in here?" I said and looked at louis.
He was covered in milk and lucky charms.
"Your sister happened" Niall laughed."when shes mad she is MAD!"
"Did you try to apologize louis?" I asked him.
"Yep. And what do i get, cereal." He said.
"Don't mess with lay when shes mad, things get serious" harry said holding up his scarred arm.
"Whats that from?" I asked.
"From last year when i made cole do that thing, you know with the car" harry said.
"Ooh yeah and then she threw something at you and thats how you got the scar!" I finally remembered.
**louis point of view**
Layla walked in wearing her riding outfit. She looked so good in those pants.
She walked into the living room and slammed the backdoor on her way out.
"I messed up..."i sighed.
"I think we all know that" Niall said.
I glared at him.
"If you love her enough to want her back i think you should go talk to her louis" Liam said.
He was right. I loved her more than anything and I hated the fact that i hurt her.
I ran outside.
"Layla!" I chased after her.
"What do you want louis!" She shouted.
She wasn't on the horse yet. She wasn't even going riding.
I took her hand.
"Layla i love you more than anything in this whole world. I know i hurt you and I'm more than sorry. I would do anything to make it up to you! Layla Allison Payne i love you more than anything and i miss you! I want you to forgive me. I want you back in my arms. I hate that your mad at me and i know what i did was wrong. Im sorry i truly am" i confessed and i meant it. I looked her right in her bright green eyes and said it.
"Lou..." She said.
She gave me a hug.
"I cant stay mad at you can i. Your too cute" she said and i kissed her.
"Come back inside with me." I said.
She took my hand and i led her back inside.
"She forgives fast too" Niall said.
"Umm actually no she doesn't. At least not usually" Liam said. "Lou what did you do?"
"He didn't do anything he just apologized" Layla said.
"And you just forgave him" harry said.
"I couldn't stay mad at him. Plus he swore not to go to bars anymore." Layla said as she played with my hair.
"Woah louis? Not go to bars? Ever?" Niall said.
"Yup" i confirmed. "For Layla"
Everyone looked so shocked and i said i would do whatever it took for her to forgive me.
"Man louis, you really love her don't you?" Liam said.
"I do!" I said and i hugged her tight and kissed her forehead.
Liam smiled.
**layla's point of view**
That afternoon i went with louis to a tattoo shop in town. He was getting ANOTHER tattoo. I decided i would too.
We both walked in and planned to get a matching one. It worked out pretty good too.
His said "king" and mine said "queen" and we got it on our wrist. I took a picture of it and sent it to the boys.
"Things are getting serious😏😂"-niall
"Nice😎👌🏼"-harry
"Yay my little sis braves another needle for the third time"-liam
I texted back.
"Liam i have a nose piercing and 6 piercings. 3 on each ear. That is way more than 3 times😂"-Layla
"Beautiful😘❤️"-louis
We got into the car and stopped at the store to get something to eat.
"Lou-bear, look" i said pointing to a magazine.
"Tomlinson caught cheating!" It read.
"Paps!" He was frustrated
"Baby calm down. We know what really happened and thats all that matters" i assured him.
"Your right" he said and kissed my forehead. There was a camera flash and a click.
"Run!" He whispered.
We ran to the car and locked our doors, fastened out seat belts and drove off.
When we got home it was already on star news.
Liam raised an eyebrow.
"Wheres the food?" He asked.
"Couldn't get any because of the paps!" Louis said.
I sat down next to louis with a bag of chips.
I got a text from cole.
"Hey baby meet me in the drive way i got a surprise!"-cole
I put my phone down and sighed.
"Whats wrong love?" Louis asked.
"I have to go meet cole in the drive way" i sighed.
"Nope not alone, I'm coming with you." Louis said and we both walked to the front door.
"Hey babe!" Cole said.
I gave him a deathly stare.
"What do you want?" I asked with attitude.
"I got you something" he said.
"Whatever it is i don't want it!" I sassed.
"You cant really reject this babe" he said in his american voice. He opened the car door and held something in his hand.
"A puppy?" I asked.
"Is it supposed to help you win me back? Because guess what its not working." I took the puppy out of his hands and held it.
"Come on baby. You and louis are done and over with. Its all over the news!"he said.
"Its all fake" louis said.
"Louis." Cole said.
"Cole" louis gave him a glare.
"You can give him a second chance but not me?" Cole said.
"Cole when are you going to understand i don't want to be with you! If you really love me you would want me to be happy. And louis makes me happy! So apparently you don't love me as much as you think you do!" I shot back.
"Looks like mr.sassy pants is rubbing off on you.
"At least he actually has the guts to tell me he did something wrong unlike you denying it!" I shouted.
"You know what! Keep the puppy! But apparently you don't want to see mackenzie ever again!" Cole said and drove off.
"Layla? Who is mackenzie?" Louis asked me.
"Oh my god, i never told you did i?" I said.
"No you didn't." He said.
"Mackenzie is my daughter louis" i said. "She is 6 months old and cole has her right now. Well he can barely take care of her so she is with his mum"
"Wait you have a daughter and you never told me?" He said.
"Louis please don't be mad." I said.
"Im not." He pulled me in lose to him.
"We have to get her back." He said.
We walked inside with the puppy in my arms.
"Ermm where did that come from?" Niall said.
"Cole" louis responded.
We played with the puppy for a bit and then he snuggled up in louis lap and fell asleep.
"I think i have a name for him" i said.
"What is it love?"louis said as i snuggled up against him.
"Blue. We shall name the all black dog blue!" I smiled.
"Lovely" he said and pecked my forehead.
