Opposites Attract

Chapter Three ~ Oh hey, didn't see you there.

A/N: Hi guys!!! Just to let you know, on the side is a picture of Delilah and what she looks like. Hope you are liking the story so far. cx

Delilah's P.O.V.

Shit, shit, shit. "Ehm... Sorry." I say. He looks very intimidating as far as I'm concerned. Louis just smirks and offers me a hand and I take it. Once both Cathy and I are off the ground, Louis continues to talk. "Hey uh love. What are you doing out so late?" he asks, tilting his head to the side. "Oh I uh.. I was just." I say nervously, looking down at the ground. "Here. How about we go to the park and talk?" he says. Was he crazy?! I'm not going with him. A part of me wanted to and the other was saying no. I don't know how but I managed to accept and next thing I knew, we were sitting on a bench while Cathy was on the swings.

"So..." Louis says, rubbing his hands together and looking at me. "Mind telling me why you are out running frantically at 11:30 with a child and duffel bags?" I look down at the ground. Louis puts his hand under my chin and makes me look at him. This kid is gorgeous. The way his eyes sparkle in the moonlight leaves me dazed. "Love?" Louis says, tilting his head to the side which snaps me out of my trance. "Oh.. Louis can I be honest with you?" I ask looking at the ground and looking back up to face him. He nods. "Uhm well... My dad he.. Uh. He was raping my little sister earlier on.. And I couldn't stand to see him do that. Because well. I had to suffer that. He used to abuse me.. And uh. I didn't want her to have to go through that as well." I say gesturing to Cathy. She seemed content. Louis' jaw dropped. "O-oh my God. I'm so sorry." he says hugging me. He smells like vanilla. I inhale the wonderful scent. "It's okay." I say tears trickling down my face. Louis frowns. "Uh. So. What's your name?" he asks. "Delilah." I reply through sniffles. "Delilah.. Ah. You must be new. Did you move here?" I nod. He nods and looks away. "Well.. It's nice to meet you Delilah. I'm Louis." he says offering his hand. I shake it lightly. "Trust me. I know." I mumble, looking away. He looks at the ground sad. "Oh.. So you were fed bullshit eh?" he asks. Tears were filming his eyes making them glossy. "I guess so.." I felt bad now realizing he probably isn't like that at all. He seems very friendly to be honest. Even if I'm like the exact opposite from him. He's punk and I'm girly. I swear we're nothing alike. "I'm not what you may think. I know.. I look intimidating. But I'm really friendly." he says looking at me and giving off a sheepish smile.

"Louis.. I'm sorry I said that. You are actually very nice. I shouldn't have said that." I say, genuinely sorry. "Don't worry. It's fine." he says grinning. "So uh.. Since you are running away from your home, would you like to stay at my flat for a bit?" he says, smiling. How could I say no to that? "Yes. I'd love to." I say smiling and then giggling. "Great!! Let's go!" he says hopping up and giving me a thumbs up. He was adorable I swear. Maybe I could get used to him.
