The Bodyguard (h.s)

Chapter 40: Tear stained letter

Gemma's POV

I sat on my bed finishing some files for work. As much as i tried to focus on my work i couldn't. My thoughts kept getting interrupted by Louis. He really made my very happy, his laugh, his kind words were so attractive. He was so nice, such a good person. We met a couple of months ago, right away i fell for him. Even though he was drunk he never disrespected me, he actually protected me. We then traded numbers there, since then we have been texting each other.

Three weeks after we met, he called me and asked me to hang out. We went an arcade, it was so much fun. Just as the night was ending, i leaned up to him to kiss him, but he looked away. That was when he told me everything about Maddie. Of course i was devastated, but i knew he really needed a friend so i stayed in touch with him.

Obviously, i feel jealous knowing Maddie is in my house near Louis. Even though i know she is in love with my brother, i know Louis still loves her. I sigh, a girl can only dream to be with a guy like him. I was at least glad everything between Harry and i were okay. He explained everything. He made me swear not to tell mom in what kind of business he was in. Which i promised not to speak of, my mother doesn't deserve that kind of disappointment.

Just then i hear faint knock on my door and i smile. It was probably Louis, ahh louis!!:) Since he came earlier and i told him to go away because i was busy, he frowned and left, maybe he was back again. I jump off the bed swinging the door, Maddie.

"Hello?" Maddie says with a small smile.

"Oh hey" i say through gritted teeth. She could probably feel the tesion so i knock it down. "Wanna come in?" i ask her being nice.

Her eyes widen surprised, she grins widely accepting walking in, and i close the door behind me. I gesture her so sit on the bean bag chair and she does.

"Do you want to go out shopping with me?" she asks bluntly. I try not to laugh but i end up giggling.

"Yeah, sure!!"

Maddie's POV

I sit in the breakfast counter, kicking my feet impatiently.

I look at my wrist watch, 7:37 pm. It was almost time, i sigh drinking the bottle of beer. I usually
never drink but it's just in moments like these where i wish i could forget about everything. I throw my hand threw my hair, releasing my anger, my eyes giving up, spilling hot tears. I grint my teeth, and take the last sip, of the bottle growing more upset i go over to the fridge grabbing more.

I open it up taking a huge gulp. I had already taken 2, but i needed as much numbing as possible so i wouldn't feel the heartbreak.

Maddie's POV

I apply my lipstick slowly, but i couldn't help in smiling. Just looking through the mirror, looking at the bed. The bed, we had made love.

I had had the most amazing days ever. It was set, he was the one for me, i will treasure him forever. I spray perfume lastly, opening the door to go downstairs. On my way down i could hear Louis and Niall's laughter coming from Gemma's room. I was happy Louis was finding love. Plus Gemma and i had such a fun day today, i bought a really cute outfit which i'm wearing right now!! I skip down the last steps, were i hear Harry in the kitchen so i head over there.

I open my arms ready to hug him when i gasp seeing my sight. "Harry what in the world are you doing?" i gasp seeing him with red eyes and the scent of booze, half laying on the counter. I was glad Anne wasn't here she had gone to work, since she works overnights on the weekends.

"What sweetie?" Harry slurps out. I could tell he was drunk, but why? Why was he drunk, why was he acting to odd today? He nearly begged for me not to go out today with Gemma. He said he really wanted me by his side. Which i didn't understand, i was with him all the time, i would only be out for a couple of hours. I ignored him and left him standing in the doorway earlier.
