Rocks (Louis Tomlinson)

Sixteen.

Sixteen.

Lucky for me, the night my mom heard Louis and I in the bedroom my dad wasn't home. Apparently after he and my mom...partied he went to the car shop because his car was leaking.

After Louis left, I went downstairs for dinner with a smirk on my face. My mom was sitting at the take eating spaghetti with her eyes wide open.

"Hi mom" I say and sit across from her.

"Hi honey, we had to take the cushions off the chairs because they were a little hard" Mom flinches. "But they're bearable."

"I hope I don't get sore" I bite my lip to keep from laughing.

Mom flinches again and keeps her head down.

I sit in the chair and pick up my fork and shove it into the spaghetti and raise it to my mouth.

"Wow mom, this spaghetti looks a little wet" I glance up from the fork to see her reaction. She sets her fork down on the plate and uses her hand to rub her head.

I pause for a moment before continuing. "It sure will be easy to swallow. I won't have to spit."

Mom pushes away from the table.

"I'm going to take a nap" She says and starts downstairs.

"Okay, I probably won't get a lot of sleep tonight. I have been quite restless" I say.

I hear my mom stumble with her footing down the stairs and I cover my mouth to keep from laughing. I quickly finish my spaghetti then run back upstairs and grab my phone.

I dial Louis's number and lay down on my floor as the phone rings in my ear. After the second ring, Louis answers the phone.

I tell Louis all about my mom and I's dinner, and I have never heard him laugh so hard. We talked about what it was like for Louis in England, and what we did when we were younger. We talked about how four of his friends are coming to stay a week and they are all staying in a hotel. Our conversation went from one subject to another, and when I looked over at the clock it was five in the morning.

"I need to go to sleep" I tell Louis. "I can't keep staying up like this; I have school in three days."

"Your school year is so short, you only have like two months left" Louis says.

"I know, it's unrealistic, but I can't stand school so why drag it out" I say and roll onto my back. "Goodnight, Louis."

"Goodnight, Addie."

A week after me and Louis's phone call I had just gotten out of school for the weekend. I was excited to get away from that god damned hell hole, but also quite nervous. Louis told me the night before that his friends from Europe were coming to stay, and insisted that I met them. I refused at first, but Louis wouldn't stop bothering me until I agreed. We have this tradition going on where I call him or he calls me at around nine pm, and we talk for hours on end until I eventually say I need to get some sleep, or he tells me to go to sleep for my own good.

Today I am walking home, and it is actually a nice day to be doing so. The months have gone by really fast; it's nearly the middle of October now. It's not a very long walk from school to my house, but I am kind of eager to see Louis's friends; more than I'd like to admit actually. I end up making it home in half the time it usually takes me, and as soon as I get home I notice a new car in Louis's driveway. I walk into my house and wave to my mom who is STILL a bit shaken up after the whole sex thing, but I still laugh at it. I make it up to my room and take off my backpack and brush my hair before sitting on my bed and going through Tumblr on my phone.
