My Guardian Angel

Chapter 15

Louis P.O.V

When Hayden said those words it felt like someone had cut off my air supply.

I was stunned.....

shocked......

scared........

Speechless.

Hayden was my life now, she was the one who gave me pleasure. I finally had someone worth fighting for, and now I'm losing her just like every other girl I have been with.

"What?" I asked, stunned at her statement.

"Louis...It's only because I care about you. If we keep seeing each other, my dad might do a whole lot worse than bruise you up a little. I knew I was in way over my head trying to keep this from you, but it is a part of my life. My dad is my dad. He has every right to hate me...I mean...I am the reason that my mom......"

Hayden's lip began to tremble. She stopped speaking and tears started slowly streaming out of her light eyes.

"No Hayden. It is not your fault at all. How could you have any control? No. I refuse to believe you could ever be the reason for hurting someone. You are the most caring person I know." I managed to say between my tears.

I was crying. Me. Louis Tomlinson. This is what Hayden does to me. No way I'm letting her leave me.

"Louis, I love you Ok?! Do you know how much I love you? I love you so damn much. If anything happened to you,.... It would be like me losing my mom again. It would be my fault, and then I wouldn't even be able to live with myself." Hayden practically screamed.

"Hey sshhhh. It's ok. Calm down baby. You are not putting me in any harm. I will fight your dad for you any day."

"I can't risk it. I'm sorry Louis. Don't hate me." She pleaded, her eyes red.

"Hate you? I could never hate you. Hayden, you are the first girl who has ever seen me cry. The first girl I have had a real relationship with. You are the one for me. Please." I begged.

"I'm sorry...I'm so sorry. I knew getting too close was a mistake because now I am going to be heartbroken."

"You don't have to leave!" I said grabbing her arm.

Hayden put her hand over mine.

"But Louis, I do have to leave...... Just please kiss me one more time."

We were both crying now. I rubbed the tears on her cheeks before I leaned in and kissed her. One last time. I made sure to take in all of the details. The way her lips felt against mine. The way my hands fit perfectly on the back of her neck. How soft her hair was when I ran my fingers through it.

Hayden finally pulled away after quite some time.

"Goodbye Louis." Hayden whispered.

"Goodbye Princess......I love you."

And with that, Hayden left. She left to go back to that asshole. She was probably going to get hurt again tonight. The thought of that tore me apart.

Why did I let her go?

Hayden's P.O.V

I left Louis with a lump in my throat and a knot in my stomach. That was the hardest thing I've ever done. I love Louis more than anyone. He is so much more than the guy everyone thinks he is. And now, I can't call him mine anymore.

I texted Rebecca as soon as I got home. I snuck upstairs past my dad, who was still laying on the ground after I hit him with the lamp. He was still breathing though.
