Chapter 10 - You Don't Belong

10

(A/N: It's still the same night)

Therese Cox's POV

Here I am taking a warm shower at someone's house I met just a few weeks ago. After the shower I dried myself with the towel Louis provided me, and quickly got dressed into Louis' large shirt he wanted me to wear and my shorts that my mom accidentally placed in my bag. I don't see why I had to wear his shirt if I had my own.

I stepped out of the bathroom to see him only in his boxers sprawled out on bed with his arm on top of his eyes covering himself with the overly bright light attached to the ceiling, I couldn't help but stare at his tanned naked torso. I coughed just to get his attention.

"I'll sleep downstairs at the couch if you're gonna find me." I excused myself and head towards the door to exit.

"No, sleep with me." He pats the space beside him.

"But-"

"No buts Miss Cox." Humor clear in his voice.

"Fine." I give in. I laid down beside him but scooted as far away as I could still facing him.

"Come here." He opens his arms wide. I oblige and lay my head on top of his chest.

He leaves a long kiss on my head while wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Goodnight Thea." I look up at him to see his warm sweet smile.

"Goodnight Louis."

With that I peacefully drift back to sleep whilst listening to his steady heartbeat.

I wake up to find the bed empty. Where's Louis?

I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand still adjusting to the brightness of the room.

"Louis?" I called out. My voice filled the empty bedroom. "Louis?" I say weakly before opening the bathroom door yet still found no one.

I decided to just go down and maybe find him downstairs. I entered the kitchen and living room to find nobody.

"Where the hell is Louis?" I mumbled to myself.

I'm starting to get worried, did he leave me? He didn't even leave a note or what so ever. He probably just used me for last night, yeah he just used me for his pleasure. Maybe society is right, you think someone loves you but the truth is they just want you for their wants and needs.

I feel my heart at the pit of my stomach, after what happened to us last night he left me?

Before agreeing with my thought that he had completely left me I decide to ask him for myself.

* From: Thea

Louis where are ya? *

I sent him the message. If he doesn't reply I'm leaving. I walked over to the fridge to fetch myself a glass of water and slowly swallowed the cold water. For almost 30 minutes I haven't received a reply.

I guess he's just waiting for me to leave then. I went upstairs back to his room and got my things. I went in the bathroom and got my toiletries, hurriedly shoving them in my bag. I threw my bag over my shoulder ignoring the burning and stinging sensation I felt at my left wrist and and went back downstairs again. I opened the door to his house and exited without minding to leave a note, maybe he was just waiting for me to leave once we've done it.

I hurriedly went down the streets and wait for a taxi to drive by, and once I've see one I raised my hand making the taxi cab halt and take me to where what I call home is.
