"Louis, what are we really?", Florence sighs as she leans her head into one of Louis' lean arms.

"Well, what do you want us to be?", Louis asks, a small smile playing on his lush lips.

"I want us to work out, you know...", she trails off and he nods at the statement.

"That won't be a problem", he widely grins. "I love you", he mutters so low, he wasn't even sure if she had heard.

"I love you too", she responds as she looks up at him.

"Look, I'm really sorry if whatever me and Zayn had done hurts you. It's just part of the plan, you know. Yes, it does disgust me but what is there to do?", she sighs. "These are all part of this goddamned plan; make him believe and fall in love with me. I hope you understand"

"I do understand but now that we're trying to work things out, maybe you need to limit yourself around him", he says, looking away,

"I just can't 'limit' my actions, you know that right?"

"But it's to-"

"Look, I know it's hard for you but you have to trust me on this, okay? I'm just doing according to my plan. There's nothing to be worried about", she gives a small reassuring smile.

"Fine, but can I ask you something?"

"Yeah, sure."

"Have you done that thing already with him?", he mumbles and she giggles.

"It's not funny", he states and she clears her throat.

"Well", she trails off. "Other than the one back at high school...", she cringes on the thought. "Yes, we've had but only once."

"Oh..."

"It's nothing to be worried about, babe. It was just once, plus, I won't do it anymore again with him for you even though that would mean a cross from the plan."

He smiles. "Thanks for doing it for me"

"Anything for you babe", she winks.

His heart flutters at the nickname- babe. How had he wished to be called that by her for all of these years.

He leans his head against her, forehead to forehead as he looks deep into her brown eyes. He cups her cheeks gently before giving a small peck on her forehead.

"I love you and I would do anything in my will to keep you safe. If it would take my whole goddamned life to do so then shall be it", he mutters under his breath, his head still leaning against hers.

"I love you too, baby. I always had and always will", she smiles. "The sea has it pearls."

"The heaven has its stars", he responds.

"But my heart...", she trails off.

"My heart has its love", they both say in unison before he brushes his lips against hers and lock their lips together into a deep and passionate kiss.
