Chapter Ten

Wonderwall: Original by Oasis

Louis' POV

On our way back to my car after the dance studio, I held Elise's hand. Then it started to rain, and I mean rain. Like hailing and pouring and it was bad. I threw Elise my sweatshirt that I was holding and we ran to the car. When we finally got into the car, we exploded into laughter for no reason. I started up the car and after about three and a half seconds my car just died, literally it wouldn't move.

"Well it looks like we are going to be stuck here for a while." I said, turning to Elise, she looked so beautiful. Her hair was wet and looked more brown than red and she was smiling and she was perfect.

"It's okay, I like to spend time with you." I rubbed the back of my neck with my hand and smiled, "So, Louis, you know a lot about me, so now I want to know about you."

Oh no, I'm going to have to tell her. I couldn't tell her. I don't know how to tell her. I don't know what to tell her. I can't tell her. It would ruin everything, she would never talk to me again.

"Alright, darling, what do you want to know?" I asked, secretly hoping that she didn't ask me the question I couldn't answer.

"Do you have any siblings?" I let out a small, inaudible sigh of relief. I was safe for now.

"Yes, I have younger sisters. You would love them, they would love you too."

"What is the worst thing you have ever done?" There we go. My heart beat at a million miles an hour, "You don't have to tell me if you don't want too."

"I want to tell you, you deserve to know," I said, swallowing my pride, "There are lots of ways I can say this, but I want you to know that I will always love you. You may hate me, but please don't because you have changed me and saved me and everything. I have never felt this away about anyone before, but just please here me out. I really love you and I knew that I loved you since that first Literature class on the first day of classes and you had on that navy and white striped shirt and jeans and your hair was all wavy and you sat down right in front of me. At first I thought I was crazy to think that I could love you, but then I knew I did. But you loved Niall. I knew you did, the way you looked at him, everything."

Elise's face was changing, I couldn't read her emotions. I continued, "He liked you too, he didn't love you though because when he held your hand at the coffee shop in the morning, he was making out with Olivia Bruno in the afternoon. I couldn't stand to see him play with you like that because I knew you loved him a lot. So one day after he nearly kissed you, I pulled him aside and I told him that if he didn't stop flirting and stuff with you, I would go after him. The next day you told him you loved him and I was right behind the tree watching it happen and he told you that he had a girlfriend and you walked away crying. I'm sorry. Now he's dating that Olivia chick, he would have dated you, I know it. I'm sorry. God, Elise, I'm sorry."

She was crying, but at the same time she wasn't. She just looked at me with her tears falling from her eyes. I think I let a tear fall too.

"I'm sorry too, Louis." With that she threw my sweatshirt on the seat where she was just sitting and she ran out into the rain. I ran out after her.

"Elise wait!" I yelled as I caught up to her, "I'm sorry, baby, please listen. I love you, I really, really, really, really, love you. You changed me, I, I don't get drunk every night at parties because of you and I don't get into fights anymore because of you. Elise, I need you."

"Why Louis? Why? Why couldn't you just talk to me? Or ask me out? Or something? Instead you had to break my heart. You embarrassed me in front of Niall. I loved him. I, I, I, Louis! You crushed my heart by doing that." Elise said, standing in the rain, tears were streaming down her face. I was the cause of them.

"Elise, please, I'm sorry, I thought you would never even talk to me, I don't know, Elise, I don't know what to tell you. You can hate me." I said, damn, I really screwed up this time.

"Louis, I don't hate you, I just don't really know what to say to you right now," She whispered, "Please just leave me alone for a few days."

I let her walk away. I sat back in my car and slammed my head on the steering wheel. Maybe if I slammed my head against it, my heart will stop hurting. I cried a little, I never cry. I love her. She was everything to me. No one could ever feel the way I feel about her. I looked at my sweatshirt sitting where she was just a few moments ago. It still smelled like her.

****FAST FOWARD TWO DAYS***

Elise was coming to class, but she didn't sit in front of me. I couldn't take it anymore, I couldn't be without her. That's when I had an idea. I knew how to get her back. I took my iPod and drove my car over to where her dorm was. I plugged in my iPod and turned it all the way up. Fix You by Coldplay rang throughout the car.

I took my phone and held it high above my head, just like in Say Anything. I saw her red hair through her window. She saw me. She opened her window.

"Louis? What are you doing?" Elise yelled, her dorm was up a few floors, I hoped she could hear me.

"Don't you forget about me." I yelled back, the signature line from that signature song from The Breakfast Club. Other people in other rooms yelled at me to shut up, but I didn't care, I just wanted Elise to notice.

Then she disappeared from the window, that was it. I had lost her. We were done. I turned off my music and went to get into my car.

"Louis! Wait!" I heard someone yell behind me. I turned around and Elise was running towards me, "You may be an idiot, but I still freaking love you." She said, then she kissed me.

Fireworks went off inside me. I hugged her so tightly, I thought I had broke her. I ran my fingers through her hair and she still smelled nice.

"Elise, I am so sorry, you have no idea, I love you, I missed you." I said, she just smiled and looked up at me with those beautiful green eyes.

"Any guy who remembers my two all time favorite movie and remembers not only quotes, but scenes and lyrics from songs from said movies, is enough for me." Then I smiled at her, "And after all, I love you too, Louis."
