Chapter dedicated to @chloereadsalot, she left the nicest comment on the last chapter, and I think she deserves this (:

-Ella-

I wake up and see Carter, Jesse, Kyle, and Danny seated around the bed. Louis still has his arms around me. I squirm a little and Louis helps me sit up.

"Hey babe, feeling any better?" he asks.

"A little. How long was I out?"

"A couple of hours. Your mum made you some soup." I look at the steaming bowl of soup waiting for me on the bedside table. I grab an unimportant textbook and set it on my lap. Louis sets the bowl down in front of me, and hands me the spoon. It's my favorite, chicken and dumpling. The way mum makes it is special. After the first bite, I realize how hungry I am. I didn't eat breakfast, and it's about 3:00 in the afternoon. I finish the soup quickly, and set the book and bowl on the floor.

"Where are the other boys?" I ask.

"Well Niall no doubt is downstairs eating, Zayn is probably sleeping on the bus, Harry might be watching TV, and Liam I think is either still in your closet on Twitter, or downstairs on the couch on Twitter." Carter opens the closet door, and there is Liam, on his phone. Not creepy at all that he's still in my closet. I just laugh, and snuggle closer to Louis. "Why don't we go downstairs El?" I nod, and he stands up and picks me up bridal style.

"Louis, I'm pretty sure I can walk," I giggle.

"You're sick, and I have an excuse to carry you around," he chuckles. We get to the bottom of the stairs, and he takes me to the couch where my mum is seated.

"Good afternoon sweetheart," she says, feeling my forehead. "Your fever has gone down, and you don't look as pale," she comments. She goes into the kitchen and comes back with a tray of mugs. She hands out the mugs, and we all sit and watch the news. Apparently, Eve Perez was just arrested for prostitution, and her clique got a ticket for DUI. Louis and I just laughed at the sight of her being shoved into a police car.

"Who's that?" Niall asked, mouth full of food.

"That's Eve Perez. She used to bully Ella," Louis says. He nods, and goes back to eating my mum's leftovers from last night.

"Well, who called it? Pay up guys," Jesse says, holding out his hand to collect. We made a bet on what would happen to Eve after we graduated, and Jesse said she'd be a prostitute. We all hand him our money, and continue on with the news. Nothing else really happens, except that Louis and I were in it. There were pictures of us in Paris on the screen.

"Sorry Directioners, I think that now it's fair to say, Louis Tomlinson is as good as taken," the reporter says with a wink.

"Yes he is," Louis says, kissing my forehead. I smile, and snuggle into him. Next thing I know, I'm waking up to a blinding flash.

"Oops!"

"You idiot!"

"You woke them up!"

"I'm sorry! I didn't turn the flash off!"

"What? What's going on?" Louis asks. The boys just start laughing, and show us the picture. They took a picture of us sleeping.

"Our followers are going to love this!" Liam says, sending the picture to Twitter. Seconds later, I get a notification on my phone.

Real_Liam_Payne: Aww! @El_Harmon and @Louis_Tomlinson

"Oh well, just fresh stuff for the news people," I say simply.
