Louis' POV
I heard a knock on the door. Nicole had agreed to come over today. I opened the door and there she was. God, she looked beautiful. She entered my flat, followed by the lads. In a way I was sort of hoping she told them not to come, but I knew she wanted them there for support.
"Hi love...hi boys!" I said happily. They all greeted me and we piled into the living room. I knew could tell Nicole was nervous. She was very fidgatey and antsy.
"Babe, I'm sorry. I am so so sorry. When I had you over the other night, I can promise you that I had no intentions to do what we did. You deserve to know everything from why it happened to why I left that morning." I paused, inhaling deeply and then exhaling. I looked at Nicole, she was sitting there with confusion and embarrassment written all over her face. She was about to say something.
"Go on..." She said glaring at me, waiting for the continuation of my apology.
"Well, when were on the X Factor tour, I met this girl named Hannah. We exchanged numbers and we've been texting ever since then. But before we left, I think I started to get feelings for you. I wasn't completely sure about it until the morning we came back and had breakfast together. And when I invited you over that night, I swear all I had in mind was to catch up with you and watch a movie or two. When you arrived that night, I realized how strong these feelings I had for you actually were. And when we were watching the movie, and you were in my arms, I just got caught up in the moment and that's why I slept with you. The reason for my leaving that morning, was because I think I'm falling in love with you Nicki. And the thought of falling in love with my best friend scares me to death. So, I ran. I didn't know what else to do. I'm truly sorry for any pain I cause you. I would never intentionally hurt you." I felt a tear stream down my face. She sat there for what seemed like an eternity, saying absolutely nothing.
"Now would be the time to say something. Anything..." I said desperately trying to get any reaction out of her. The boys sensed how tense it was getting, and they exited the room, giving us some privacy.
I put my head down so she couldn't see the tears streaming down my face. I heard her get up and sit down next to me. I looked at her, the expression on her face changed from unreadable, to one that I was familiar with. Thi gave me some hope.
"Y-you love me?" was all she managed to get out. I gave a weak smile before answering.
"Yes. Nicole Rose Saunders, I am slowly, but surely falling in love with you." I said with confidence.
"What about this Hannah girl..." she said softly.
"I'm going to tell Hannah later on that I'm no longer available. I promise." I said meaning every word I said.
"Are you sure you love me..?" she said second guessing our conversation.
"I have never been more sure about anything in my life love. Honest." I said giving her a reasurring smile.
"I-I, I think I'm falling in love with you too..." she said studdering a bit. Cute. I slowling leaned in and pressed my lips against hers, kissing her softly. With that little kiss, I knew I only wanted to be with her.
"EWW! PDA alert!" shouted Niall making his way into the room, with the others following him.
"Quick Niall! Cover your eyes! You're too young to see this!" Liam yelled covering Niall's eyes with his hands. And with that, our kiss ended.
"It's great that you two made up and everything, but are you going to start making out in front of us constantly now?" Harry half asked and half whined. Just to annoy Harry, I leaned in for another soft kiss, before she left.
