Fall

Chapter Three

My phone's ringing for, like, half an hour now. I opened my eyes and rubbed it, facing to the clock beside the lamp. It's six thirty. Oh c'mon who calls at this time? I searched for my phone in my bed and just answered the phone call. "Yeah?" I said, letting out a yawn. "Go outside." The voice on the other line said. It's Louis, I can tell. I would probably go back to sleep but my feet carried me all the way down stairs and reached to the door. The first thing I saw is his eyes that I can't really tell the specific color, but it's grayish blue, I think? blue eyes. grayish blue eyes. "What the hell are you doing here? How did you know where my house is?" I asked, still sleepy. "I'll answer your question later. Let's walk." He grabbed my hand and we we walked with the morning dew still existing in the wind. Damn it's cold, I'm just in my pj's and a pair of fluffy puppy slippers, he's in a sweater and a sweatpants. "Why did you disturbed me in my sleep?" I asked him. "I just want to walk with you." He answered. He's not the Louis 'dick' Tomlinson this morning, he's Louis 'morning person' Tomlinson. "Why don't you walk around the block alone then?"

"Who wants to be alone, Veronica? Can you name one?"

"Me." I quickly answered. I can feel his eyes looking at me, so I looked at him too. He smiled; this time, a sweet and gentle smile. "Your eyes is brown. It's greenish brown. Your eyes are like trees." He said. Yeah, he's right. I don't know why it has green color in my eye, but most of the time it's brown. "My eyes is a shade of poop." I chuckled. We walked a bit more and went back to my house. "I'm going home, thanks for the walk Veronica." He said. "Gosh louis. You can call me V. It's not time consuming like that Veronica shit. It's creeping me out." I pulled him inside the house and saw mum drinking milk. Why did I even pull him inside in the first place. "V! I didn't know you have a boyfriend!" She said, smiling widely on Louis. "Good morning, ma'am. I'm Louis." He said and shakes my mum's hand. I can't take my eyes off them! they're interacting! Again, I'm such a retard. "Just call me Glenda! or mum!" She says happily. Louis looks at me again, "So, V. I'm leaving, bye." mom went back to us, and by the looks of it she's now kind of sad or disappointed. "No, Louis, don't leave yet. I'll make breakfast. I insist!" Mom said and went to the kitchen. "Uhm so yeah, stay for brekfast." I said. "Oh, okay sure." The awkward silence is in our precense again so I decided to take him to my room. "So, yeah, this is my room." I said. He kind of squealed when he saw a mini organ "You play piano? and guitar?" He asked, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Uhm yeah, but I play the guitar mostly." He went to the instrument and tried to find for the plug. as soon as he found it, he plugged it in and turned the organ on. He sits on the chair, playing The Fray's How to save a life. He diddn't finish the whole piece, but damn he's good. "Wow." He literally slayed it. "Alright, let's see what you got in your guitar." "Alright, mister piano." I sat down on my bed and grabbed the guitar. I started strumming to Bon Iver's Skinny love.

"Come on, skinny love just last a year..

Pour a little salt, were never here.. my my my, my my my, my, my..." I skipped the verses and strummed the chorus.

"And I told you to be patient,

And I told you to be fine,

And I told you to be balanced

And I told you to be kind

And in the morning, I'll be with you..

But it will be a different kind

'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets

And you'll be owning all the fines.." I strummed one more chord and looked at Louis, staring at me. "God, you blew me away." He stated and clapped his hand. "Oh c'mon, Louis. you slayed it on the piano!" He chuckled and smiled at me. "Right, let's go down. I can smell bacon already." He stood up and pulled me up in my bed but I lost balance; making me fall into him. literally fall, is what I mean.  "Is everything alright there? It's too early for that!" Mom shouted. She's thinking the wrong way and Louis answered mom. It's really early for this but Veronica started it!" He laughs. I can smell the lemon mint coming from his mouth, intoxicating me and suddenly being addicted to his breath. "Not to say your fat, because you are literally not; in fact, you are sexy.." He trailed off. Where the fuck is this conversation going? He looked at me again, still on the floor with him. "I mean, uhm, you are not fat; you have a healthy body but you need to stand up now.. uhm,  that's what I mean.. uhm yeah." I started to stand up as he rolls and stood up too. "Fucking awkward silence." I said. I went downstairs and the dining table was packed full of breakfast shit. Mom looked at me sheepishly and asked, "You made out, didn't ya?" I threw her a piece of banana, but she caught it. "It's not like that, mum! And he's not my boyfriend." I said. "Well then sweetie.. Oh, Louis! come on let's eat!" I look back and saw Louis coming down, smiling awkwardly at us. I filled my plate five pancakes and several strips of bacon; drowning them with massive amount of maple syrup. I felt Louis' face come near me, and he whispered, "Slow down love, this the reason why you're heavy." I felt my cheeks flushed and covered in red tint in front of my mum. Mum just looked at us like she was looking at some married couple. I'm engrossed by the way mum looks at us.

I picked out a sausage and ate it; facing Louis. We were like having a staring game with food- I'm eating a sausage, he's drinking orange juice. We didn't notice mom walking out, we just noticed it when we heard a polaroid printing a picture. Mum looked like he found a gold, trying to dry the picture quickly. As soon as the picture got dry, she squealed and gave us the photo. It's me and Louis staring at each other, having our staring game with foods. I choked and grabbed my orange juice; again, making me choke even more. Louis starts to pat my back gently, handing out a glass of water.

"Drink slowly, you retard." He said, looking like a grumpy grandpa. I glared at him while drinking the water, starting another round of staring game. "You two are so adorable!" Mom giggled. I've never seen her that happy before. I mean, she's happy and all, but not that kind of happy. After a long breakfast, finally god, finally, mum stopped giggling. She giggled the whole breakfast time. "Uhm, thanks for the breakfast, ma'am glenda. it was very nice." He smiled at mom. "Oh Louis, such an adorable Man! Don't call me ma'am, that's too formal. I told you just call me mom or glenda." She smiled back. Itfelt awkward for me because mom don't actually do that. For all I know, atleast. And it will be so, and by so I mean soooooooooooooooooooo awkward for Louis to call my mom 'mom'. "uhm, okay, Glenda. mum.. uhm.. mum Glenda? uhm.. Yeah.. Bye. Thanks again." He said awkwardly. "Okay, bye! Gotta go get a shower, I'm going to work!" Mom said and left us downstairs. "You still didn't tell me how did you find my house, Louis." He looked at me and just smiled. "Yeah I kinda did a door to door, your neighbors were pissed at me because it's too early, and someone said that you live here." Louis Tomlinson is a professional piss off kinda dude. "No way." I said. "Way." He talked back. "So where's your house?" I asked. "You wanna go there and have some lunch later?" He asked. "uhm.. sure, yeah whatever." I just agreed to him, didn't I? Good lord help me with my retarded decisions. We barely even know each other and we're gonna have meals on each other's house. "I'll see you later then." He said. "yeah, sure. Cool." I answered. He started walking and stopped. Le looked at me again and walked towards me. "What?" i asked. "uhm.. I don't know. God, okay bye." Weird. He started walking away from me again so I reached for the door knob. I suddenly hear someone running their ass off and saw Louis pulling me near him by my waist, taking my lips into his. He nibbled my lower lip and as I gasped, he slips his tongue inside my mouth, and I answered his kisses back. I really don't know how to take these kinds of kisses, but i just thought of a novel having these, kindly applying them to the real world; but it felt kinda sloppy for me because I suck at these things. I tried to get a grip on his shoulders and his hands started to trace my spine. I stopped, gently pushing him. He looks at me with his grayish blue eyes and chuckled. "You taste like maple syrup and bacon." Shit. It's my first kinda intense kiss with uhm.. with tongue andIi taste like bacon. "uhm.. I'm sorry that you taste so fancy!" I told him. He held my chin and tilted my head towards his, "What do I taste like, Veronica?" He asked with a grin. "You taste like lemon and mint. And sausage." I mumbled. I hope he doesn't hear the lemon and mint. "You're cute. You look like a tomato." He said and chuckled again. He doesn't stop chuckling, I wanna shove bacon on his throat and tell that he tastes like bacon now. "Yeah right Louis! get your ass home now." I laughed.Like, seriously laughed histerically. I'm a girl without the prim and proper act if you haven't noticed yet (I doubt that you didn't notice it, I said dick many times). "Pick you up at eleven, V." He said, also laughing. "You laugh hard for a girl V." I looked at him and shrug "Can't change who I really am, sorry." He leaned and gave a peck on my cheeks. "You don't have to change. I like you being you. Eleven, don't forget."

He left me in front of the house, and found myself smiling. I went inside the house and saw mom dressed up, shit what if she saw that. "What took you so long out there, V?" she asked. "uhm, uh.. We talked, and I'm going to their house for lunch." She smiled at me and gave me a hundred bucks. Wow that's a shitload of money for summer. "Here, sweetie. and if you can stay the night at louis, please do. I'll be home very late. I have meetings and conventions and other shits. Bye love ya." She left me and I heard her start the car's engine. I went outside again, bidding my mom goodbye. God this is so sudden, so fast.

I fell for him. literally.

 but hours later, I fell for him.
