Before I start i'm going to dedicate this to @CallMehCurlyHazz for helping me with this, she also made my cover! I love her new story she's started called Publicity so Fan her and read her storys!!

Rachael's POV

My bed felt strange and lumpy, cold and even smelt a little strange. "Where am I" I whispered in panic sitting up. I slowly climbed out of bed, scanning the area, all I remember is.. seeing my.. dad. Wait, now I remember I went home with that dude..  L- l - Lachlan? no, uh, Lance? no.. it might pay to learn his name. That thought wandered through my head as I gazed over to the pile of washing in the corner.. Maybe his name is on here, I quietly crouched down to read a label on a white piece of clothing, "Calvin Klein" I read aloud, it took a while for me to notice, "ew underwear icky, ew, ew, ew I just touched Louis Boxers" I said wiping my hands down my top. "Louis" I repeated under my breath. "Louis, Louis, Louis, Louis" I repeated quietly to remember his name. I was never good at remembering names. Isn't he on the couch? I questioned. I quickly searched through his bed for my phone 5:56am it read. I quietly made my way to his room making sure not to wake his sisters. Thank god I remembered or else I would've been like an elephant and jumped down all the stairs with a thud. But I guess my quite plan didn't work out too well "Who are you?" I heard a sweet voice come from the top of the stair case I turned to see one of Louis' little sisters rubbing her eyes, "Uh, I- I am a friend of Louis" I said I was about to continue walking but she asked me "are you hi-his girlfriend" she yawned, "No sweetie I'm just a friend, go back to bed okay?" she looked at the ground "why aren't you his girlfriend?" she asked again "Because we only met a few days ago" I spoke up but still trying to stay quite, "But you were in his bed, weren't you?" she asked, this escalated quickly to a whole new level of awkward.. "Uh w-well u-uh I had n-nowhere to stay and your brother kindly offered me to stay" I said awkwardly, I better be nicer to Louis, I mean he did let me stay in his room.. "Yeah you should, he needs a girlfriend" she said "wait I said that out loud?" I asked "uh- yeah" then she walked back to her room "wait what do you mean he needs a girlfriend?" by the time I asked she was gone. I furrowed my eyebrows as I walked as quite as I could to the bottom of the stairs.. Don't want to get questioned by any of his other sisters.. I made it to the door, I couldn't help but look across to the couch he was resting on, "aww" I whispered, he looked so peaceful the way he was sprawled out, one arm hung to the ground, the other up on the headrest. One foot dangling over an armrest, his shoe clinging to his foot, just, his other leg also hung to the ground. I saw his phone over beside him.. Must suck to still have a flip phone, I flipped up the screen, remembering when I owned the best model to this I went to contacts and added my number, I sent a text to myself so I could save his number. I didn't want to go home, not yet at least. I quietly left his house, making sure to lock the door. As I walked down the blackened streets showing a dim light revealing the path, I noticed a little coffee shop a few blocks down. The sign lit up so it wasn't hard to miss. It took me 5 minutes to walk there but once I got there I went straight into the bathroom. Thankfully it wasn't messy. I went straight for the mirror trying to tame my hair with my fingers, combing out as many knots as I could, I splashed water over my face then grabbed the paper hand towels and rubbed the rough towels over my face. Once I looked.. well presentable I went to get something to drink, thankfully I still had my money in my bra, and to avoid more awkwardness I took it out in the bathroom.. hehe that cashier is going to touch my boob money.. hehe "Hi welcome to the Coffee Castle, what can I get'cha" a lady I'm guessing whos in her mid thirthys asked. "Can I just get a regular coffee with 2 sugars with extra sweetners" she punched in the cost on the cash machine, out of the corner of my eye I saw breath mints, "oh can I also get these" I said sliding over lemon and mint breath mints. "That'll be 7.80 please" she asked, I handed over the money and not long after I got my drink, I decided to catch the bus to UNI  which I think can be at the bus stop not far from here and should be there in about half an hour. It's 6:46am and I am at the bus stop, I somehow managed to finish my drink by the time I got here, I hope i'm at the right bus stop. I decided to text Louis to tell him where I went,

To 'Calvin Klein': (hehe I had to..)

Hey Louis it's Rachael, it means a lot you let me stay I decided to leave so you wouldn't have to worry about me. So once again thanks.. I'll see you at school eh?

aaaaand send. 

*After the bus ride*

Thank god I got the right bus!! I made my way to my first class surprisingly there was a lot of people in there, only a couple still not here, one of them was Louis, he was usually late, well just on time. I took a seat at the front for a change. "You know that Louis dude?" I heard behind me, I decided to listen in, "Yeah he's cute" 

"Yeah I know someone who he went to high school with,"

"So?"

"Sooo, you wanna know why he's so quiet?"

"sure why not, enlighten me"

"Okay don't tell anyone, but his parents died a few years ago!"

"R-really??!"

"Yeah They died in a car crash when they were on a honey moon date, Louis found out like two weeks after"

"woah, you're kidding me right? that's so sad!"

"Yeah, he use to be popular and everything, he has to take care of his four sisters and everything!"

"Ohmygod four girls being raised by a guy, oooh"

I couldn't bare to listen to anymore of this I snapped my head over my shoulder to see the two idiots of the class, "You might want to learn how to whisper" I said, they just looked at me. After about 5 more minutes Louis walked in. He scanned the room, the only seats left were the ones on either side of me in a desk of 3. I watched him make his way to the seat to my left. "Hey" he whispered under his breath, "you okay?" he asked a little louder, I replied "Uh yeah" he looked up from his desk to face me, "Fizzy told me she met you" The name Fizzy scanned through my brain.. The girl at the top of the stairs, "uh-yeah uh I guess we met" he gulped "she said you liked me" he looked back down "Uh well I never said that, sorry." I feel bad now, I never feel bad i'm meant to be a spoilt brat! He look sad, "But I never said I didn't like you either" I saw a slight smile creep to his cheeks, he didn't reply.

it was half way through our lesson when everyone's attention was brought to the door as Louis gasped "you know him?" I whispered "we were in a band" he quickly replied "Oh Hey Lou" The mysterious person said flashing a toothy grin, he's kinda cute. "Uh Hey Niall" was all he said.
