A Lost Hope (Louis Fanfic)

Chapter 7- Dinner Date

I'm all out of faith

This is how I feel

I'm cold and I am shamed

Lying naked on the floor

Illusion never changed

Into something real

I'm wide awake and I can see

The perfect sky is torn

You're a little late, I'm already torn

Torn- Natalie Imbruglia

Louis left early the next morning to go back to his hotel and change before he had to do a few radio interviews. I wouldn't get to see him today due to his schedule. I still had to pick up my car from the tow place before my fine grew even bigger.

As I tiptoe along the cold wooden floor to my kitchen, I spot a note and keys on my entry hall table.

"Thought I'd pick up your car for you so you're not late to work (again)"

-Louis

I can't help the slight blush coloring my icy cheeks. I snatch my keys up sighing and retreat to the kitchen.

I spin around in my chair waiting to be able to go home and watch Project Runway. I toss my bouncy ball up into the air, attempting to catch it as it hits a book off my shelf.

"Shit," I mutter under my breath gathering up the fallen objects. A soft knock on my office door frame sends my head flying up, smacking the shelf, causing the remaining items to tumble on my head. A soft chuckles erupts through the room.

"Need help babe?" A velvety voice asks. I glance up expecting to see Louis, but a frown appears on my lips.

"What do you want Keith?" I sneer tossing the remaining objects on my desk with the assistance of Keith.

"It's been two months..." He smirks. I give him a questioning look.

"And..." I questioned flopping into my chair.

"Tonight I'm taking you out!" He grins.

"Uh no your not," I sigh turning around.

"Yes I am. Two months ago I asked you out and you said, and I quote 'Leave me alone!' and I said 'No, only if you go out with me' and then said 'Fine I'll go out with you in two months. I promise! Now leave alone!' Babe today is the day!" Keith smirks. I groan rubbing my face.

"Fine," I mumble.

"YES!!!" He screams running out of my office. "I'M FINALLY GOING ON A DATE WITH DAWN BOUQUET!!! THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!" He shouts running down the halls. A few seconds later he pokes his head back in.

"Pick you up at eight," he winks.

Later that night as I comb my hair I hear someone knocking furiously at my door. I scurry to the door and slightly open it seeing Louis. As soon as he can he pushes it open wide, stalking into my apartment.

"Are you going on a date?" He asks running his hands through his already messy hair.

"So what if I am?" I shrug turning on my heel and strutting back to my bedroom.

"You can't do that!" He shouts bursting into my room as he flails his arms.

"Why not?" I ask applying some mascara.
