Louis and I ended up cuddled into a bed and slept that way. All my anger has melted away by now. I wake up to see Louis still asleep. I took my hands and brushed his hair away from his forehand. His eyes fluttered open.

"Sorry." I whisper

"No, I liked it." He smiles

"What do you want to do today?" I say grabbing my phone on the bedside table.

"Want to just go for a drive around?" He suggests

"Sure. We still need to talk." I suggest

"I know." He groans

I hurried up and got ready for the day ahead of us. I slathered on some makeup and remembered the last time I wore makeup and what happened. I shake off the flashback and continue on getting ready. I must have been daydreaming because Louis stared straight at me.

"Scarlett? Hello? Anybody home?" He chuckles

"Sorry, I was just thinking." I said

"About?" He asks

"Nothing." I quickly say

"Liar." He sneers

"I was just thinking about what to wear and about how I have a job starting Monday." I say

"A job? Babe, if it's about paying for anything, forget about it." He says with a worried look on his face

"No. You were going to leave me, I had to provide for myself." I mutter

Louis stands up from the bed and walk forward towards me. He wraps his arms around me, pulling me into a tight hug. I could hear the rhythm of his heartbeat. I haven't had this much peace and quiet in forever. With constant drama in my life, there was no chance for me to hold what seemed like the world to me in my hands. I tilted my head to see the sides of his arms. My heart broke at the sight of the cut the blade left from last night.

"I'm not leaving you, never again." He says, his voice cracks

"Promise?" I mutter

"I don't promise anything I can't keep but I promise." He says

My heart was beating out of my chest. I know Louis can be intimidating but I know that he keeps his word. The way he promised that he won't leave me, it makes me love him even more.

"Quit the job. It's gonna be hard keeping a job while you're traveling the world." He smirks

"You're serious?" My eyes widen

"Serious." He says firmly

"How soon?" I ask looking up

"Very soon, after Christmas." He says putting his chin onto my head

"Why can't we just stay like this forever, just me and you." I say hugging even tighter

"Because eventually we're going to have another member to this group. Maybe two." He hints

The thought of having children was amazing but the thought of sex made me feel queasy. Louis noticed the uneasy gulp I made.

"What? You don't want to have sex with me?" He asks chuckling

"No, it's not that." I choke on my words

"What's wrong?" His voice becomes serious

"Nothing, forget about it." My eyes start tearing

"Tell me." He says bringing his hand to my cheek

The touch of his hand made the tears stream down my face. The topic was super sensitive to me. He uses his thumb to wipe the tears away.

"Sorry." He mutters, understanding the uneasiness

"It's fine. It's just a sensitive topic." I excuse

"I understand. Let's get ready for the day." He says with a cheeky smile, melting away the pain from the topic.

We got ready and left the apartment. We drove around town. We stopped off at a museum. Louis groaned and groaned.

"Come on! It'll be fun, I promise!" I urge

"Fine." He finally caves

We walked throughout the museum, gazing at paintings. There were many categories and sections of the museum. We came along a sculpture of a giant plastic ball. I read the plaque.

"The giant ball is made for two people. The ball represents a small world for those people. Nothing from the outside could break apart the young couple."

Louis read the plaque over my shoulder. He smiled widely and pulled his phone out. He looked around and gave his phone to someone. He pulled me into the ball and gave the person with his phone a thumbs up. He wrapped me in his arms and smiled. The guy snapped pictures. Louis turned to me and brought his lips to mine. The way he was showing public affection made my stomach flutter.

"I love you." He mutters when he pulls away

"Not as much as me." I say
