My Best Friends Boyfriend

Chapter 9

Ava's POV

The light beamed in from my window. It must've just hit sunrise, and honestly I was dreading getting up this morning. The simple reason why was because I knew this was my last morning in the cabin with the boys. No more Louis after this. I'm sure he'd even forget all about me once I left, and I didn't want that to happen.

I slowly woke myself up more, and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes. I stood up from the bed, and I walked over to my bathroom.

As I walked in my reflection was the first thing I noticed and I looked terrible. My hair was crazy from me tossing and turning in my sleep, and my left over make up was running down my face. This definatly wasn't attractive.

I started to straighen myself up. There was no way I was going downstairs looking like this. So, I put my hair up in a sloppy bun and I grabbed a clean wash rag from the table and started in on wiping off my make up.

As I wiped off my make up, I noticed a new bruise forming on my upper left arm. For a minute I thought I was getting better, that maybe the disease had up and left my body. I was stupid for thinking that I guess.

Once I got all my make up wiped off my face, I covered it in a new layer and I covered my three bruises with some foundation I had left over. 

I pulled my hair out of the bun and let the blonde fall everywhere in its naturual curl, and I decided it as time for me to go downstairs.

I made my way down the mahogony stairs and noticed no one was there except for Louis, and he was at the kitchen table by himself talking on the phone. 

At first I thought I should walk back up the stairs and pretend like I never even saw him, but then I got intreged into his coversation and decided that I should listen in. 

"Yeah, I don't mind taking Ava home, Eleanor. It's not that far away from my house since she lives in Doncaster as well. "

Doncaster? I didn't know Louis lived there. I thought he might've lived in Manchester like Eleanor did. 

I actually lived in Manchester from preschool till 10th grade, thats how Eleanor and I met. Then my dad got a job offer in Doncaster and we moved up there. Since this was my last year fo school I decided to stay at Doncaster High to finish my senior year... If I could even make it to theend.

I shook the bad thought out of my head and I let out a soft "Hmm."

Louis heard me, and spun around in his chair. His face went from being pale to brightening up. "Hey, I have to get off.. Yeah one of the lads came back. Love you too, bye." He said and he hung up his phone, staring at me all the while.

"Eleanor?" I asked, and I saw his face distort into a frown when I said her name. I guess he knew as well as I did that after today our lives would go back to normal. I'd be the stupid girl with the disease that only had Eleanro as a really close friend, and Louis would go back to being the boy in the most popular boyband that everyone loves.

"Yeah, it was. I'm going to take you home today.." He told me. "I didn't know you lived in Doncaster though.."

"Same." I said with a laugh, and I made my way to him as I set down on his lap. 

I felt him brush some hair behind my ears and I could tell his eyes were on me as I spoke "I don't know.. I know you wont be in Doncaster, will you?"

"Not for long.." He admitted. "My mum is letting me stay there for a week, then I go back to London with the boys so we can start on our album and such. I'll be sure to make extra trips down there to see you though " He promised me but his  frown increased on his face, and he laid his chin on my shoulder.
