Finally Falling

Chapter 23

Marcel's POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~

" Hey, what do you think their doing back there?" I asked as I took another bite of my brownie.

" I bet their making out." Louis laughed. He then made a face with his tongue out, trying to show me.

I laughed and turned back to the game.

Suddenly, Sam and Niall walked in and you could tell that something had happened. Louis and I smirked at each other and Sam looked at us confused.

" What?"

" Nothing.." Louis quickly answered.

Niall got up and went to the kitchen, probably getting a snack.

I decided to lay in Louis' lap and he began to pet my gelled hair, making it come out of place. I usually hated when people mess up my hair but I love it when Louis runs his fingers through it.After a while Sam and Niall left, leaving Louis and I to watch a movie. We sat there and watched Love Actually. It was my favorite movie and I know it's kind of a chick flick, but I still loved it.

This time, Louis head was in my lap and I was playing with his short brown hair.

" Marcel, I'm hungry."

" What do you want to eat?" I asked as I looked down at him.

" Diana's!" he replied cheerfully.

I smiled and nodded my head.

" Alright we can go."

We both got up and grabbed our coats because it got really chilly.

Louis drove us to the diner and once we walked in I had a bad feeling about everything.

" Louis!"

I turned and saw the one person that I didn't want to see.

" H-hi Eleanor." Eleanor came running up to him and Louis looked at me in sympathy.

" Babe I missed you!"

I walked away to a stool so that I didn't disturb them.

" I never liked that girl."

I looked up and saw Archie leaning over the counter, glaring at Eleanor.

" Who? Eleanor?"

" Yea that girl is no good for him."

We both stared at the two, and I looked away when they kissed.

I felt my heart shatter in two. Why can't that be me.

" Soon he'll find out. And when he does, everything will workout." Archie said.

" Wait what do you mean?" I asked but he was already talking to another customer.

I sighed and looked at the menu and ordered Louis' favorite. The strawberry milkshake with fries.

" Hey sorry about that." Louis smiled as he sat down next to me.

" It's fine. I ordered two milkshakes if that's ok with you?" I reply with a neutral expression on my face.

" Are you ok Marcel?"

" Why are you even dating her Louis.."

" Eleanor?"

" Yes Eleanor! She's no good for you." I answered.

" Yes she-"

" Tell me Louis. What do you guys do other then have sex." I say as I crossed my arms and looked right into his eyes.

Louis ran a hand through his hair and shook his head.

" It's complicated Marcel."

" No it's not. You can break up with her and find someone else. Someone who loves you for you and not your body."

" Someone like who?" Louis replied.

" Someone like-"

" Louis can you help me with these boxes?" Diana said.

Louis nodded and got up, leaving me at the table by myself.

" Someone like me Lou... someone like me." I whispered.

Louis' POV

~~~~~~~~~~

When I got back, I realized that Marcel was gone. I went over to the table and saw a note.

It read...

At Sam's. Might sleepover

- Marcel xx

I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. Why can't I just ask Marcel out! It shouldn't be that hard. I need a second opinion.

~~~~~~~~~~~

" So you like Marcel?" Zayn asked with a smirk.

" Why are you smirking? This is not a smirking matter!" I replied.

" I'm just saying.. do you?"

" Yes a lot." I felt my cheeks burn at the thought of him.

" Awe!! Marcel and Louis sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby Darcy in a light pink carriage."

" Oh my god Zayn..." I say as I place my head into my hands to cover up the massive blush that had risen up my cheeks.

" I've never seen you act this way for anyone. Especially a boy.."

" Well he's not just a boy Zayn."

" So are you going to ask him out?"

I thought about the question for a while. Should I ask Marcel out?

" Yea." I felt a wide smile spread across my face.

I'll ask him tomorrow.
