Promise

Chapter 38 - stupid

LOUIS' POV:

It was two weeks ago since I last saw her. She stormed into my room in the middle of the night. I was expecting her to walk in any moment, because I heard her and Harry screaming to each other. She always comes to sleep in between me and Zayn when they are in a fight.

But this time was different. She normally wasn't the type to cry when they had an argument. But there she was. Sitting on the floor leaning against the door with he knees pulled up and her arms wrapped around het legs. She looked so vulnerable and my hate towards the way Harry always treated her grew once again. I could make her so happy, but she always has to be so miserable.

Her sobs pierced straight trough my heart and I couldn't find the words to say right now. After a few heavy sobs she forced herself to look up at me. She took a deep breath and faked a small smile.

"Can you book me a ticket to London." was the last thing I heard her say. I found myself replaying her youtube videos almost every day, because I misse her voice. The short texts I received just weren't enough. Even Harry got a phone call..

The rumour that they broke up rised fast. Faster than we all had expected. But it got calmed down when Lisanne was seen in London with Gemma and Anne multiple times the past two weeks. When they were asked about it, they all ignore the questions. When Harry got asked about a split he denied it, telling them they were still happy together. I had a hard time swallowing my laugh, but I managed to keep it inside.

And here she was. Casually walking by, joining us on a quick interview and walking on. Harry rushed after her, I wanted that too. When the interviewer finally shut up I tried to run to them but Niall stopped me. He told me I couldn't do it. But he was too naive to see how hurt she always was.

During the whole movie I kept thinking about how she would be sitting there. Probably next to Eleanor or Perrie, or maybe with the other youtubers. A huge smile on her face while she would be looking at the screen with wide eyes.

Halfway through the movie I couldn't hold it and I took my phone out and sent her a quick text. Telling her that she looked stunning. I knew the settings on her phone. No matter if the sound was off, my texts would let her phone make a noise. The phone would say 'hey I miss you" in my voice.

I held my breath while pressing the sent button. Hoping she didn't decide to put her phone off for once.

"Hey I miss you." and from across the room I saw a light in the front. Everyone was staring at it. I was in a trance untill Harry leaned over from two seats away.

"What did you send?" he asked. I forgot they knew about the ringtione and now I had to explain.

"I asked how she was doing." I said and kept staring at the small light in the front.

"Why couldn't you wait till after the movie?" Harry asked.

"Shut up." Niall whispered and Harry laid back down in his seat. Niall then turned over to me. "Leave her alone." he whispered but my eyes stayed focus on the light that was now gone. My phone buzzed and I opened the text.

*Not even.*  she simply replied. I was laughing at my screen when Harry snatched the phone out of my hands. He looked at the texts with a disgusted look before he handed the phone back without even looking at me.

LISANNES POV:

Walking was already harder than usually as I stumbled my way through the crowd. A lot of people to greet and talk to but I was only busy avoiding the people I didn't want to talk to. It kept me really busy and it was working pretty good. I knew I promised him to have a chat with him but I didn't want to. I had the idea that I might do through the night without walking in on him, if it wasn't for Niall.
