Not in that way

I can't believe it, there was no way of going back now. It happened & now he stood there staring at me with a confused look. 

"Louis, please. Say something." I say as I feel my voice crack. 

He blinks & lowers himself into the chair behind him. His actions spoke louder than words & I knew it was a mistake. He looks up at me, opens his mouth to speak then looks away once again. I don't understand, a few minutes ago he was tickling me as we both laughed. I was trying to get away but he's grasp didn't make it so easy. We were just inches away & I couldn't resist. I quickly attached my lips to his as he was laughing. It was a quick kiss before he gently pulled away. He looked at me shocked & slowly backed away. And now here we were, standing in an awkward silence. 

Louis looks up at me again, "(Y/n), I love you. Believe me." He say as I sense a small smile start forming on my face,  "But not in that way." He says as as his voice fades.

The smile forming on my face disappears & I look down at my hands.

 "(Y/n)" I hear Louis say but I don't bother looking up. I felt my eyes start to water. I quickly turn around & start to walk away, I couldn't let him see me crushed. "(Y/n)!" I hear him yell after me. Why? Why did I do it?

His P.O.V

I've been laying in bed for the past 3 hours just thinking about what happened last night between (y/n) & me. From the moment she attached her lips onto mine to when she walked out crushed. I keep thinking about what I told her, I don't even know why I told her that. I saw the hurt in her eyes & it killed me that I caused that. I sit up in sudden realization, I do love her. I do love her in that way. I quickly get up & head towards the door grabbing the closest thing to a shirt. I had to tell her how I actually felt, no matter what. I show up at her house & knock on the door numerous times until the door creaks open. I instantly crash my lips onto hers. 

She pulls away, "What-What are you doing?" she asks very much surprised. 

"You don't know how much I wanted to do that." I say with my hands places on her cheeks. She grabs me by my wrists & pulls them away from her face. 

"Is this some sort of joke? How is it that yesterday you said you didn't love me that way and then today say you've been wanting to do that?" she says as she walks away. 

I walk behind her, following her closely behind. "I know, and you don't know how much I regret it. Knowing I hurt you made me realize you're the last person I'd ever want to hurt—" I manage to say before being interrupted by her. 

"Then why'd you say it?" she says with her arms firmly crossed across her chest.

"I thought it was just the alcohol in you, that's why I said it. I didn't want you to regret anything in the morning but when I saw you run out with tears forming in your eyes I knew it wasn't the alcohol. That's why I called out to you." I say caressing her soft cheek. 

She looks at me with her head tilted, "Trust me, it's real to me." She says cracking a smile. 

A grin starts to form on my face as I bring my other hand up to her face & start to lean in pecking her lips softly. 

"But, let's take it slow." She says before I'm able to reattach my lips to hers.
