Olivia's P.O.V.

I've got to pull my shit together.

Every time Louis even speaks to another girl I get jealous. Why? I shouldn't. He's made every faithful promise a man could make to a woman and kept them. He loves me. He's always loved me and I know he always will.

But I can't shake this feeling that he's doing something behind my back. The way he doesn't meet me for lunch anymore. He's always busy now. Granted he's working with the band again after holidays, but he still shouldn't be getting back until around 10. I don't want to say anything, he already feels like I don't trust him.

Do you trust him?

Of course.

Do you really?

Yes...

Then why are you asking all these questions?

...

I should be trusting him. He's given me no reason not to trust him. Maybe I just need to relax and not think about it. That could work.

I drew myself a bath. And I went to the extreme too, I lit candles and found some old fake rose petals in my closet. I turned off the lights until I was in just the dim glow of candlelight. I put my headphones in and rested my head on the back of the beautiful claw foot tub.

Empty my thoughts. Clear my head. Calm down. Learn to trust again.

Trust him. I trust him. He would never go behind my back with someone else. He's not that kind of guy. Louis' the best person I know, and he's more than I could ever deserve. He's not the kind of douche that would cheat on me with some skank. He's not the kind of guy that would deliberately hurt me in a way he knows that would absolutely destroy me. I've got to know that he's always going to be there for me and never leave me.

And Louis doesn't break promises.

My eyes were closed and I was completely still when the water started to move around me. My eyes snapped open and I screamed. Louis burst into laughter as he sank into the bath opposite me. I pulled my headphones out and set them on the floor.

"What are you doing?" I asked, pushing the bubbles towards me and crumpling myself in a tight ball. Louis stretched out, both his legs on either side of me.

"Enjoying a nice bath with my girlfriend. What are you doing?" He asked. I rolled my eyes and couldn't help but smile. Louis lifted his arms out. "Cuddle?" He asked, jutting out his bottom lip. I smiled and went over to him and turned to where my back was on his chest. He kissed my shoulder. "Sorry I've been getting home so late."

"It's okay." I replied quietly. He wrapped both his hands around mine.

"I haven't been the best to you lately." My breathing hitched. Why would he say that? Is he hiding something? Calm down, Olivia. Calm down.

"You've been a perfect gentlemen." I told him, pressing my cheek against his. Louis shook his head.

"You're too pretty to leave at home all day. Come to work with me tomorrow. Hang out with me and the boys. Simon might even be stopping by tomorrow before he has to go back to LA." My eyes flew up.

"LA?" I asked eagerly. Louis laughed and kissed my neck.

"We can't go right now...but soon, okay?" He said. I turned and met his eyes.

"Soon." I agreed. He smiled and kissed my lips.

"You're so pretty." He murmured, our foreheads pressed together. I felt my cheeks get hot.
