*Liam POV*

"Hey guys we need to talk" I called the lads over.

We all gathered around and sat on the couch. "So what do you think of Lacey and Louis?"

"Wait they're dating?!" Niall shouted.

"No well I don't know but I know they are getting close to each other" I said.

"What's so bad about it?" Harry asked.

"Well, I don't know when we might be leaving but if Lacey starts to like Louis then we have a problem but our main problem is..." I paused for a second. "Louis looks like he is really in love with her and I feel like he might do something for them to be together."

Zayn chuckled. I looked at him confused and said, "What's funny?"

"Why do you think he might do something to keep them together?" Zayn asked.

"For starters, he's Louis! Also, when someone is madly in love with someone else they won't be able to leave them and Louis will do all he can just to have her" I explained.

"Yea, don't you remember what he did because they wouldn't allow him to take carrots on the plane" I can't believe Niall just said that.

"Look who's talking!" Harry shouted. "You threw a fit at the airport and argued with people for a half hour and security had to come."

Niall rolled his eyes at them. Zayn just sat there laughing. Harry grabbed a magazine from the counter and well I just stood there still trying to think of what is going to happen with Louis and Lacey.

*Lacey POV*

I have been in my room for a while and I couldn't figure myself out. I love Louis but I'm worried that if he goes back on tour, then he won't see me anymore. He probably would but that's not enough. I feel like our relationship is complicated and everything is going a bit fast. We have kissed each other and went to prom together in the last two days. Maybe I'm over thinking things.

I heard a knock on my door, "come in" I yelled.

"Hey Lace" I turned my head to find Louis leaning against my door frame.

"What's up tommo" he chuckled at what I called him.

"Nothing I was just um wondering if u would um go on a date?" he asked. He sounded really nervous.

"With who?" I played dumb.

His face went from red to its original color. "Very funny"

I rolled my eyes playfully. "So you want to go on a date with me?" I was quite nervous myself.

"Yea, I was thinking we could do something together"

"Okay I guess"

"You guess?"

"I'm just kidding"

"Good that kind of scared me"

I patted a spot on my bed next to me. He walked towards me and sat down. We sat in silence for a while until it was broken by Zayn.

"Hey we are going to watch a movie, care to join us?" he asked.

"Sure" we said in unison.

We went downstairs into the screening room and we popped popcorn and we shared tubs of ice cream. We watched Frozen which was surprising for a bunch of teenage boys who are in a band.

"What happened at the mall?" Louis whispered into my ear. Chills went down my spine and I shivered.

"Well I guess I was jealous of a little girl?" I doubt he would believe me.

"Why would you be jealous of a little girl?" he gasped.

"I don't know, I just saw her playing with other kids and she was doing cartwheels and she was just showing her mom how she did a cartwheel and well I don't know. I just never got to experience those kind of things." I explained.

"It's okay you will be fine. You could always show off you gymnastic things to me and to Cassidy and Johnny and the lads." I can't believe he doesn't understand.

"You don't get it!" I snapped. "I wanted to do the things kids do when I was little. I wanted to do arts and crafts and show my parents. I wanted come home and show them my grades and then make them proud"

"Well it's the past just forget about it. When I was little I used to sing to my mum and she rarely would listen, I would just end up singing to my sisters."

"Well at least you have sisters! I have step-sisters and they don't even care one least bit about me. If I die, they will celebrate. Last time I tried singing to my sisters, I was seven and I ended up getting all sorts of fruit thrown at me."

I knew I should have forgotten about the past but Louis is just getting me mad of how he doesn't really care of what happened to me.

"Listen how about you forget about that and just watch the movie. They should help."

"How about you forget about me and continue the movie, maybe that should help." I stormed out of the room and went straight upstairs.

*Louis POV*

I am such an idiot. She was overreacting about it and I didn't really know what to say. Now she left and is pissed at me. I snapped out of my thoughts and found the lads looking at me. They were all shaking their heads at me; looks like I'm going to get a lecture from them.

"You are so stupid!" Liam waved his hands in the air.

Now Harry is shouting at me.

"We know she was overreacting but what she had been through I think she has the right to act like that" I never thought Zayn's face could get that red.

"I think you should rethink about what you said and go apologize about it." Niall suggested.

"Actually I shouldn't go now. I will wait until she is come and is relaxed." I said.

After the movie finished, we all decided to go to our room while I go and talk to Lacey. I approached her door and knocked.

Silence.

I knocked again.

Silence again.

I just decided to just open her door and luckily it was unlocked. I closed her door and her head snapped towards my direction. I saw her tear stained face. I felt guilt rush through me. I sat down next to her on her bed. She just kept her head down and her hair covered her face. I couldn't stand seeing her like this.

I lifted her chin with my hand and made her face me. "I'm really sorry; I should have understood you and I just didn't really know what to say. I feel like I have known you for years when we had only known each other for like, I'm guessing like a month and a half? Anyways, I dint know your whole back story and I shouldn't have been rude about your past and stuff." I saw her smile, the smile that always makes me happy every single time I see it.

"I'm really sorry I over reacted. I shouldn't have done that and made you feel bad" she smiled at me again and this time I smiled back.

I tucked her hair behind her ear and I saw her eyes sparkle. I just love staring into those eyes. I feel like every time I look at them I'm in a whole different world. I pulled her into a hug and she kissed my cheek. I felt my cheek tingle and I saw her laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Your cheeks, they are red. You're blushing!"

I felt embarrassed that she saw me blush then again who cares. I felt comfortable if I had to blush in front of the girl I love.
