Nothing's fine I'm torn

Liv's pov~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up to the sound of soft snores. I could recognize that sound anywhere. I wiggled out of Louis arms and looked at the sleeping boy.

We were the same age but people constantly thought he was years older than me. If they could see him right now it would change their minds. In his sleep Louis looked so peaceful and relaxed he instantly looked younger.

The time difference was really bugging me and there was no way that I would be able to go back sleep. An idea to cheer Louis up came to mind and I smiled. I placed a kiss on his forehead before unlocking the door and leaving the room.

I walked into the kitchen and smiled, Louis loved when I made him breakfast and I noticed how thin he has recently gotten.

I managed to find all the ingredients for French toast and I set to work. Zayn, Liam and Niall managed to wander into the kitchen as I was preparing.

"What are you making?" Niall asked sitting at the island and I smiled remembering Louis telling me that Niall loved food. "French toast, it's Louis favourite" I said looking up at them.

"Not meaning to be rude but who are you exactly?" Liam said with a sheepish expression. "I'm Olivia but you can call me Liv. I'm a friend of Louis, sorry for waking you guys up so early" I apologized realizing they were probably sleeping.

"Why were you here so early?" Zayn asked sitting beside Niall. "My flight had just landed sorry" I apologized again.

"Where are you from and why did you have such an early flight?" Liam asked and I knew there was going to be many more questions. "I'm from Canada, Lou called last night and I got on a plane ASAP and 8 hours later I showed up at the door" I explained hoping they would drop it.

"What was wrong with him? I haven't seen him that upset before" Niall asked and I looked up alarmed. "He hasn't told you?" I asked confused. Confusion then drifted across their faces. "He's been off for about two weeks now but he won't talk to us. He locks himself away in his room." Liam explained and I felt myself getting angry.

"That idiot! I told him to talk to you guys" I said mostly to myself. I looked at each of their confused faces and sighed "Him and Eleanor broke up two weeks ago" I explained and their expressions became sympathetic.

I looked back down at the last piece of toast in the pan and flipped it. Soon I felt someone's head on my shoulder, I would have freaked out but I knew it was just him. "You made French toast, you're an angel" Louis said and I elbowed him in the stomach. "And you're still a wanker" I tease, putting the piece of toast on the plate with the others.

He chuckled and took the plate from my hands bringing it over to the table. We all sat down, Louis and Niall beside me, and started to eat. The boys all pass around the maple syrup and I cringe when Niall passes it to me.

Louis started laughing and I shot him a glare. I poured a small amount and passed it on. "Oh come on its not that bad" Louis said smiling, "you're maple syrup is shit" I whine and he just laughs at me again and Niall joins in.

"If you live in Canada how did you two meet?" Zayn asked and I looked at Louis seeing if he wanted to share that story. "She was in London" was all he said and I knew he wasn't going to elaborate further.

"We were drunk and Louis puked on my shoes" I said making a face. Louis laughed at me and I wondered if he cared that I told them. The rest of the boys laughed along with him.

When the table went silent, that's when Liam spoke up "Louis why didn't you tell us about the break up?" He asks softly and Louis whirled around to glare at me. I raised my eyebrow and shrugged because I didn't regret telling them. They needed to know and Louis lied to me saying that he told them.

Louis looked at his plate and pushed around his food "Must have slipped my mind" he mumbled. Liam was about to say something else but that's when Harry walked in. Louis looked up and froze.

I needed to get him out of this situation now "Hey Lou remember you promised me that we would go shopping today?" I said looking at the frightened boy.

Louis looked and me and smiled thankfully "of course, come on we should probably get ready now" he said in a monotone voice and I flinched. Nonetheless he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards his room.

************************************

So there are some questions answered and more unanswered questions.

Ps there is maple syrup in the UK just in the specialty aisle. My friend would go to England in the summer and she said that it tasted different.

Pps I'm actually really nervous to write this because of future plot developments eek
