You and Louis had been best friends for as long as you could remember. You grew up together. From the diaper days to his days on the X Factor you two were inseparable. You did everything together! The two of you were always there for each other, he was your shoulder to cry on and you were the one he could come to when he needed to talk. To be honest, he was perfect to you. After a while, you realized that you began to fall head over heals in love with him. Even when he was off the X Factor and put in One Direction you still loved him. Because you didn’t see him that often, every minute you spend with him meant the world to you.
A few years later, you ended up moving to London for a job. You were beyond excited to be able to see him again. When you got off the plane, he was there at the airport when you arrived.
“Louis!!”
“Erica!! You're here!” He ran towards you and pulled you into a tight hug, spinning you around as you both laughed hysterically. “It's been forever! How have you been?” he asked setting you down.
“Eh, alright. Not as exciting back in Doncaster with out you.” You said with a wink
“Of course it isn’t!” Louis beamed.
The other boys were there as well and they spent the rest of the day helping you unpack and move into your new house. Once almost everything was all set up, everyone decided to have a move night. Niall ordered some pizza, and Liam and Harry fought over which movies to watch. Shortly after, the pizza arrived and everyone tore into it, disappearing in minutes. You weren’t one of those girls that ate one slice around boys. No, you inhaled a ton of food whether people were around or not.
Liam put in the movie Transformers, and the night began. When the movie was over, you put in Sherlock Holmes. And lastly, Harry of course decides to put in Love Actually.
Halfway through the movie, Zayn turned to you “So Erica, are you planning on finding a guy while your in London?” He asked wiggling his eyebrows
You blushed and look down. “Oh I don’t know, we'll see.” When you look back up, Louis is looking over at you with a look you didn’t really understand. “What?” you ask completely confused.
“Nothing.” He breathes and gets up, heading out the door.
“Whats up with him?” you ask
The boys all give each other a look, and Harry turns to you “You better go talk to him.”
You were starting to get worried, so you got up quickly and headed out the door after Louis. You find him sitting on the front steps of the porch, with his head buried in his hands. “Lou, whats wrong?”
He looks up at you with tears in his eyes for a moment, but then looks down again. “Nothing.”
“Oh come on Louis, I know its not nothing. Please tell me?” You didn’t know what had gotten into him, the two of you used to share everything and now he wouldn’t tell you what's wrong. “Please?”
“Promise me that you’re not going to find someone new.” He blurted out
“What?”
“Just.. Promise me that you wont leave me..” He mumbled
“Of course I wont leave you. Why would I leave you?” You said sitting down next to him.
“Well you’re in London now, and there are tons of good looking, rich guys out there and you could get any of them.”
You let out a laugh “No I couldn’t. I wouldn’t want to anyway.”
“Why not?” He asked with raised eyebrows
“Well..” You looked down, not exactly knowing that to say. “Because... because I love you Louis..” He looks up at you, surprise written all over his face. “I've loved you for a long time Lou, and its about time I told you. I'm sorry if I just single-handedly ruined our friendship but I cant-” Suddenly, you were cut of my Louis pulling you into a kiss. Your heart nearly stopped. You were lost in the moment. Just you and Louis, together again. Sitting under the stars, kissing in London. You couldn’t believe it.
“I love you too Erica. I always have.. And I should have told you a long time ago, I'm so sorry.” he breathed
“You have nothing to be sorry for.” You said leaning against him, resting your head on his shoulder. He wraps his strong arms around you and suddenly his chest rumbles with laughter. “What?” You ask looking up at him.
“It's just that, I'm really glad you came to London.” He says, and the thought makes you smile. The two of you were together. Together again in London.
