Ember's POV

I woke up to the smell of breakfast. It smelt of eggs, and bacon. I instantly sat up in the bed I was in, it wasn't mine. Then I remembered, I was with Louis, in his home. I rubbed my face and sighed. Louis' room was dark the shades where drawn closed. I got up and threw them open for some light; smiling in satisfaction. I left the room following the yummy sent. I found Louis in the kitchen, his back was facing the stove. I could see he was wearing blue sweatpants, shirtless. Wow, this couldn't get any weirder.

"Good morning." Louis said, flipping around to see me. He had a slight smile played on his lips. He looked so fresh and happy. Then there's me; the opposite. It felt so... weird.

"Um. Good Morning." I said taking a seat at his high stool for the tiny kitchen island. I watched him cook.

"How did you sleep?" he asks still working on the food in front of him.

"Good." I say picking at my finger nails. There was a weird silence for a while there. Then Louis started to hum. He was strange, he acted as if everything was normal. When really, he had some random girl living with him now.

"You know, you don't have to be so shy. This is kinda your new home; you live here now." he explained, setting the scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and a glass of orange juice in-front of me.

"Thanks." I mumbled "And. I know. This is just all so weird for me."

"How?" he asks

"Well, I'm living with a stranger at the moment." I say

"We don't have to be strangers." He said

"Really," I cock an eyebrow up at his comment.

"Yea. So whats your favorite color." he says childishly

"What?" i quiestion

"I asked you what your favorite color was,"

"Yea i know. Why?" i say

"You said that we are strangers to each-other. Lets not." he says. I wait a while to respond.

"Green. my favorite color is green." I say. A smile tugs at his lips.

"Red. mines red. How about your favorite animal?" he says leaning on the island opposite from my side.

"Cats."

"Hmmm. I like bears." he answers taking a bite of is toast as I take a bite from my eggs.

"Do you have any sibilings?" he asks. I shake my head no; I was an only child.

"I have, 4 sisters." he chuckles. I look up at him with wide eyes. Four sisters!

"Wow." i comment

"yea. Okay, whats your hobbie?" he asks

"Reading, drawing and music." I answer. He nods his head.

"Mines, singing and music." he answers. He was cool. I mean he wasn't so bad. Maybe he had a good taste in music.

"You sing?"

"Yes. But I'm rubbish." he says eating a bite from his bacon.

"I don't believe you." I say with a slight smile. I bet he was good.

"Okay, then. How about you draw me a picture. And if it's good. I'll sing for you,"

"Are you sure you don't need anything? I won't be gone for long."

"Yes. I'll be fine. I'll call if I need anything." I say

"Okay. Again I apologize. I forgot to cancel on this."

"It's fine seriously. I don't want to get in the way of your social life too." I chuckle, receiving a warm smile from Louis.

"Okay, I'll see you in a few hours. Bye" And with that his door closes. I let out a huff. I'm left alone once again. Louis had this dinner thing he had to do tonight. He said he almost totally forgot about it. I told him not to cancel and go. I wanted him to have a life, not have his world repelling around some creepy girl living with him.

I decided to look around a bit. I see some family photo's of Louis hung on the wall. I see a mom, and a bunch of little girls. Some where taller and the other two where definitely twins. They all looked so happy. I smiled at the picture. I walked around into the living room, there was a bookcase full of movies and on top was a couple more picture frames. One was with Louis and a tall brunette with very curly hair; he was handsome :) . They where at some kind of concert with beer cups in there hands and screaming with amused faces. I look to the other side and see a picture of Louis with his grandmother; well I assumed. He was making a silly face and the lady smiled briefly at the camera.

Louis didn't seem likable when I met him, but now that I see how he lives, and what he does on a normal day. He wasn't too bad. Especially if he's the one that saved my life. It was strange saying that. I never thought of myself actually doing it. But I needed a way out. I wasn't happy anymore and nothing was going to change it. I'm still not sure if I'm happy I survived or if I still want to be dead. At the moment I couldn't decide how I felt at all. Everything was weird. It was weird having this wrap around my wrist. It was weird sleeping in someone else's bed. it was definitely weird that I was living with some guy I had only thoroughly met yesterday.

Louis seemed completely normal. I felt bad for him; he had to take care of me. I would make his life hell. Im a pain in the ass. My parents told me that enough that I understand it. I bother people a lot.... Lets not get on that road. Im tired.

I decide to get all my thoughts off of my mind and watch a movie. I pick out the movie, 'Ghost Busters' and relax myself on his couch. Around the part where they go into the ball room, I start to fall asleep.

*Louis POV*

I felt horrible. First I didn't want to leave Ember all alone. And second I didn't tell Eleanor about ember... A couple weeks after I met Ember I met this girl Eleanor at a Starbuck's. We had confused each others drinks together for having ordering the same thing. We talked for a little and she was absolutely stunning. She was perfect. And funny. We had gave each other our numbers too that day. And I planned out a date for tonight. I was super excited about it yet I had to take care of Ember. I decided that I should go on the date for an hour or so then go straight home. I knew Ember wouldn't do anything. She couldn't. I had hidden all the sharp objects around the house. There where no knives, or even forks (I can get very worried). I hidden my shavers and made sure nothing was left laying around. I know what your thinking; when did I have time for this? Well, I was up almost till two in the morning hiding things and making sure Ember stayed asleep. I was sitting out side her door for a while making sure nothing went wrong. Until I was sure she was safe, I went to bed.

But what was really on my mind was if I should even tell Eleanor I had a girl living with me. I shouldn't. She will probably just leave and show no interest in me. So I won't I'll keep it a secret. I don't want the one thing that made me excited this whole week to be ruined. It wont.
