A Thousand Moments

Chapter 2

=Louis' POV=
I hated this.
I hated this so fucking much.
I never wanted to leave her.
She must hate me right now.
The thought of her crying on her bed, tears rolling down her cheeks, thinking of how much she hates me.
Fuck.
I want to go back and hug her tightly in my arms and never let go.
But I couldn't go back.
He wouldn't let me.
He would never let me go back.
I was hurting inside.
I can't stop the tears.
They won't stop.
I hated leaving people.
I really did.
I hate myself.
I hate him.
There's only one person I love.
And that's Mikaela.
***
I get out of the car and get all my things out of the trunk.
My head hangs low as I head into the building I am staying at.
He checks in and the woman behind the desk hands him a key and smiles.
"Thanks." His deep voice says.
I follow him into the elevator.
He hits the number 5.
The elevator door closes, and we rise up.
"Are you going to tell me your name yet?" I ask, softly.
"No." He sharply says. "Not yet."
I don't say anything.
I just stare at the numbers on the small screen above the door.
Elevator rides were always peaceful.
Fun when Mikaela was around.
I sigh and look down, the elevator dinging at the same time.
I follow him down a long hallway.
We both stop at a door, the number 274 on it.
He manages to open it in 3.5 seconds.
He motions me to go in first.
I look toward the dark room.
I walk in slowly, taking it all in.
He slides past me, hitting me in the shoulder in the process.
I turn on the lights.
I look at the back of his head in disgust.
"What room would you like?" He asks.
"Don't care." I spit.
He shrugs and takes the room on the far left, leaving me with the one near the living room.
I sigh and head into it.
Cool air hits me.
It felt nice, actually.
I set my things down and unpack.
Placing each piece of clothing in the dresser near the window.
"Hey, Imma head out. Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone." He says behind me.
I nod and look back.
The door closes and it's dead silent.
I look down at the small object on my bed.
My phone.
I pick it up and look through my contacts.
My finger stops at 'M'
The first name in the list is 'Mikaela'
I hesitate.
What if he finds out?
I shut my eyes and press 'call'
1 ring.
2 rings.
3 ri- "Louis?"
Her voice.
Oh, how I missed that voice.
"Hey, love." I say, a small smile on my face.
"Why are you calling? Don't you have other people to leave?"
That hurt.
"Ela, I can explain. Please."
Sniffles come from the other side.
"No, Lou. You left me without saying goodbye."
My eyes start to water.
"Please." I sit on the bed. "Please."
She says nothing.
"Ela... I'm begging you. Please let me explain."
Tears roll down my cheeks.
"Where are you?" She asks.
"Doncaster."
"Why are you in Doncaster?"
"He brought me here."
"He?"
I lay down.
"I can't tell you what he looks like. Or his name but I don't know that either." I say, my eyes shut.
"Why not?"
"You'll hate him."
"Can we meet up?" She asks.
I sigh. "We can't."
"Why?"
"He won't let me see you. I'm not even supposed to be calling you."
I wanted to see her.
Bad.
I needed to see her beautiful brown eyes.
The way she smiles.
The way she laughs.
The way she sings in the shower.
The way she pus her hair in a messy bun.
She doesn't care what she looked like.
She didn't care what anyone thought of her.
I hear a faint knock on the door.
Shit.
"Hey. I'll call you soon?"
I'll try.
"Yeah, is something wrong?"
"Y-uh. No. I'm fine."
"Oh." That's all she says.
"I-I love you."
I sense her smiling.
"I love you too, Lou."
I smile for a second and then hang up, rushing out the bedroom door.
I run toward the door, unlocking it and then swinging it open.
