Say you still love me.

Chapter 25

Louis's P.O.V

I looked at her and gulped.

What is she going to do now?

I was honestly so worried at the moment I was shaking.

"I'm sorry Louis." she said as her eyes scanned me.

What the fuck? Why is she sorry? She didn't do anything. It was all me, I should have gotten help a long time ago when she and mum suggested it, but being me I thought I was fine.

They even got a dude to come to the house to talk to me about it. But of course I had a fit and wouldn't talk to him. Trust me, If I had known then what I'd do in the future. You can sure as hell bet I would've.

"W-What?" is that seriously all I could say.

Her eyes filled with tears she looked down so i couldn't see her face. She started shaking and I slowly put an arm around her.

She flinched at my touch but didn't pull away. I felt her start to loosen up and I gently pulled her face up, pushing the hair out of her eyes.

She looked so sad and conflicted.

Like a darkness had grown inside her while the light was trying to fight it.

It was a look that made me feel like a part of me died on the inside and it hurt.

I felt my eyes start to prick with tears and I blinked a few times trying to get them to go away.

"I hate it when you cry." I rested my hand on her cheek and wiped away a tear with my thumb.

"I'm sorry." she shook her head. "All of this is my fault." she broke down. I pulled her to my chest and she wrapped her arms around me.

"this isn't your fault Kel, none of it is." I whispered in her ear as she cried into my shirt.

I put my hand on the back of her head and closed my eyes causing the tears to fade away.

When I opened them I saw a figure standing a ways down the hall, I recognized the person as Liam. I could only see him smile and nod at me before he walked away. I let out a shaky breath and ran my other hand up and down her back.

"It's gonna be okay." I said once she started to calm down a bit. She pulled back and looked at me with a unsureness on her face.

"How do you know?" her voice cracked as she spoke.

"Because, we're gonna do this... together." a relieved look sparkled in her eyes as she hugged me again. "Thank you." she pulled away with a confused look now plastered on her face.

"For what?" she wiped her eyes with her sleeves and looked at me again.

"For giving me another chance... again." the corners of her mouth twitched upwards and she wrapped an arm around my waist.

"What can i say? I missed my best friend." I felt her lean against my shoulder and I knew as soon as she said that there was a smile on my face.

Making me think that Maybe,

Just maybe Everything is actually going to be okay.
