When You said 'Rock Me', Is This What You Meant? | l.t (Book l) [unedited]

Chapter Twenty Six

Zoe's POV:

"Zoe..." Louis said, looking into my eyes. I could see he was breaking too. Liam's face was hopeful, but heartbroken at the same time.

"Liam, Zayn's moving out." Louis pointed out.

"He's gettin' married!" Liam exclaimed. Louis arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me close.

"What if I get married?" Louis frowned. Liam stuttered, looking between us two.

"C'mon, Louis. Just for another month?" Liam asked. Louis' shoulders slumped, and he turned to me.

"We need to talk for a minute." He pulled me into the kitchen.

"Do you know what you're getting into?" He asked. I shook my head.

"Five guys running around. Harry enjoys letting himself free, we're rowdy, we like video games and never cleaning out messes. They bring girls home when they aren't in a relationship, and they seem to be everywhere. We flirt, we're rude, we're obnoxious and sometimes we're down right perverts. Are you ready to live with me times five?" He asked. I stepped closer to him, and caressed his face.

"Louis, calm down. I'm ready to take on the world, as long as I'm with you." I smiled. His face brightened, and he kissed me passionately. He lifted me onto the counter, and I gasped. I felt the tip of his tongue run over mine, and I pulled him closer.

"We'll never have this time." He kissed my jaw. I rolled my eyes as his lips continued to attack my skin.

"No bribes, Louis." I warned. He chuckled against my now tender skin. He lifted his head, and placed his palms on the counter, looking up at me.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

"Even if I'm not, it's only for a month." I raised my brows. He rolled his eyes, and I hopped off the counter.

"Go tell the boys, I'll get your boxes." He said, and motioned for me to go forward. I walked in front of him, and gasped when I felt something hit my bottom. I glared at him, and pointed a finger, like I was scolding a child.

"There was a spider!" He laughed. I rolled my eyes, and walked back into the living room. I pounced on the empty couch.

"You stayin'?" Zayn asked. I shrugged.

"I guess so." I laughed.

"Yes!" Liam yelled, and went outside to do whatever.

Louis came back in carrying the boxes and Liam was carrying some too.

"Okay, let's get Honesty and we'll unpack." Louis grinned. I grinned back, and nodded.

"C'mon." He laughed, and led me by the small of my back to his car.

"Zoe, it may seem like we're moving too fast, but remember where we were five years ago." He said softly, almost a whisper.

"Louis, I'm perfect how we are. It honestly feels like we never broke up." I shrugged.

"Yeah, besides the fact we haven't exchanged 'I love you's." He smiled. That phrase made my heart flutter.

"I think we should just let this flow, Lou." I smiled. He glanced at me, his eyes bright.

"I remember out Mothers cooing over how many times we would say it." Louis chuckled.

"I know it, they would just love it! The fact their babies were growing up and in love!" I laughed. Louis glanced at me.

"Careful Zo, your southern is showing." He teased.

"I don't know how I still have hints of my southern accent when my brother has a full thick British accent, Haley even has an accent!" I rambled.
