Loucil/Lou Ellen Oneshots

Fire

"Hey Lou, are you alright?" 

Lou Ellen jolted in her seat, and looked around

Her friend Logan was sitting next to her, and she was on a bus.

Oh yeah...

It was Christmas time, and Lou had decided to take a break from camp, and visit her family.

She was regretting it.

I mean, sure, she had missed her mum and dad, and she almost cried with joy when she saw her little sister.

But she missed her home.

She missed the cabins, the lake and the forest.

But most of all, she missed her friends.

Namely Cecil.

"Lou, your looking really pale. Are you sure your okay?"

She blinked.

Right. Bus. Friends. Mortals.

"Sorry, I'm fine" she said, the lies coming out effortlessly

"I'm just a bit tired"

Logan nodded, then turned back to Garreth, whom he was talking to.

Lou rubbed her eyes and sat up.

She had decided that it would help, if she saw her mortal friends again .

Aria, Garreth, Logan, Leo, Sam, and Caris.

She hadn't seen these people in years. And they'd all changed.

Aria wore more make-up, and skimpier clothes

Garreth kept pulling down his sleeves, and if he had something to hide.
He probably did.

Logan was taller, and more muscly. And a lot more full of himself.

Leo as well, kept winking at all of the girls that they passed, even though when Lou last saw him, he had wanted nothing to do with girls whatsoever.

Sam didn't say a word. He kept his head down, and sat on his phone.

And Caris kept making lovey-dovey at Garreth.

These were completely different people, so why was Lou hanging out with them?

Honestly, she had no idea anymore.

Lou sighed, as the bus grounded to a halt. She stood up, and made her way down the bus.

Just as she was stepping off, Aria ran straight into her, and almost made her topple to the ground, but Lou managed to catch them both in time.

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" She asked, fussing over Lou's clothes.

She nodded, but inside she felt like she wanted to cry.

The old Aria would have started to laugh, and push Lou again, in a friendly way, before helping her up. Then they would walk down the street together, with the rest of the gang, laughing about what clumsy oafs they were.

She didn't like this newer version of them. They weren't her friends anymore, they were completely different people.

Aria and Caris sighed as they stepped into the warmth of the shopping centre, and both grabbed one of the boys hands, who in turn grabbed one of our hands, and started to run, like they used to do.

Maybe there is hope for them after all.

Logan ended up grabbing her arm, and he yanked her forwards, so that it felt like her arm had dislocated. She laughed. Lou knew what was going to happen next. The boys are going to start to get competitive, and start to race towards the shop they always go to first (The Ice Cream Factory).
