Work Hard Play Hard >> Louis Tomlinson

0.8

••• LAUREN'S POV •••

I couldn't just leave Louis there drowning himself in his pity party.

Shannon scolded at me for turning down the photo shoot last minute but I'm used to her shit.

Louis just sends off this nice guy vibe and I don't really think Eleanor appreciates that enough.

Eleanor, wait maybe he wanted to talk to Eleanor and I just basically forced him to come play soccer with me.

I mentally curse at myself for being so idiotic.

I cleared my throat breaking the silence in the car,"If you tell me Eleanor's address I can drop you off and you can patch things up if you want?"

••• LOUIS' POV •••

Did I want to patch things up with Eleanor? We have been falling apart lately and I'm just really confused.

I decide I should patch things up, I mean my family loved her and so did the boys and yeah...

Do I love her? Ugh. This is confusing!

"Yeah that would be great."

I tell Lauren El's address and she has to take a full u-turn.

During the car trip we make conversation. Lauren's really easy to talk to and I just feel really open with her.

Which kinda scares me since we've only known each other for a few days.

It also kinda excites me because I haven't had a friend like that in ages besides Stan and he only gets to visit sometimes.

After thinking things through I think it would be great to have a friend like Lauren.

"Hey Loz?"

She giggles which catches my attention. Did I do something embarrassing? Is there something on me face?

"Yeah, Lou?" She giggles again.

"Since we have gotten closer recently...do you - only if you want to... um..."

Lauren glances at me quickly and I notice I'm frustrating her a little.

"Just spit it out Louis."

That's the thing, I know what words I want to say but I can't seem to put them out loud.

"Can I-I have your numb-ber please?"

I hear Lauren let out a breathy laugh.

"Sure."

She passes over her phone and I put my phone number into her phone.

I look outside the window and see that were almost at Eleanor's house. Okay, just breathe Louis.

Pulling into the driveway Loz smiles at me and I go to open the door.

"Do you want me to wait for you?"

"That would be great, thanks for being here Lauren. It's great to have a friend like you."

"No problem."

Walking closer and closer to the door and feel my breathe hitch. It takes me a few seconds to knock on the door.

When Eleanor answers I don't see what I'm expecting. I expected a sad, depressed face but instead I got an angry and tired looking expression. I continue looking at El until her cold voice breaks the awkward silence.

"I can't believe you came with her!"

El is angry 😉 but don't worry. Just saying I don't actually think that Els like this cause I've never met her this is all fake.
