Chapter 6

Louis's POV

New Years wasn't that fun I guess.

Harry and I had a little party at our flat and Harry had me invite Eleanor, so she brought a couple friends with her.

One of the girls ended hooking up with Niall but then I heard her sneak out of the house this morning so I'm not sure what happened.

I woke up to Harry being knocked out next to me on the bed.

I rolled over and kissed him on his cheek but he didn't budge so I'm guessing he got pretty messed up last night.

I walk to the bathroom and take a quick shower and change into some sweats but don't bother to put a shirt on.

On my way to the living room I pick up loads of cups and trash in the hallway.

As I get closer to the living room I hear mumbling. So I rush in to see Eleanor and her friend sitting on the couch.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, did we wake you?" she apologizes.

What the fuck is she doing here?

"No, you didn't. But why are you here? Why didn't you leave last night?" I rudely ask.

She looks down at her hands on her lap and twirls her ring.

"Um I'm sorry, Harry told us we could stay because we didn't have money to call a cab and we were going to walk back home but he-"

"Okay, I get it." I interrupted because I know how kind my boyfriend is.

Her friend remained quiet the whole time, just staring between Eleanor and I.

"Do you want us to leave?" She asks interrupting my thoughts.

I contemplate between being rude and kicking her out, or telling her I'll call a cab after breakfast is made.

"Man, last night was crazy." interrupts Niall as he walks into the living room rubbing his eyes.

I hear Eleanor's friend whispering something to her and I'm more than sure it had something to do with the girl that he messed around with.

Niall pats my back as he walks towards the kitchen and opens the fridge.

"I'll call you guys a cab right after Niall cooks all of us breakfast." I say as I smirk in his direction.

"What Lou, seriously?" Says Niall.

"Yup, a good English breakfast." I reply.

I hear him sigh but ignore it as I continue to pick up the house.

Suddenly I notice Eleanor joining me. I look up at her and she smiles.

Just then, Harry walks in the living room, "Babe where-" he looks up and sees Eleanor and I cleaning together and simply says, "good morning."

"Goodmorning Babe." I reply as I walk towards him and kiss him on the cheek.

An hour later, the house is clean and breakfast is finished.

Right before I serve myself I call a cab for Eleanor and her friend.

"We'll be there in 30." Says the person on the line.

I hang up and tell that to Eleanor and she nods and thanks me.

As I walk Eleanor outside I catch a couple paps in the road already snapping pictures.

She tells her friend to wait in the cab as she gives me a hug.

"It's kinda required for me to kiss you, since nobody got a New Years kiss."
